Doink The Clown Prince of Chaos Event (+Giveaway)

I always appreciate it when an event is grindable and does not require a ton of spending to max. However I felt it was a flaw that this was a M/F showdown event and there were no event bonus points for any Female superstars.

The Doink character design and gameplay was great.

Spent close to a $100 trying to get Doink,, what a waste of money, I got garbage

Thank you for listening to the community and making changes from the last showdown. The 400 Kofi grind was a bit much but a minor complaint.

Doink The Clown Prince of Chaos Event Feedback:

Loot: Didn’t try except for single one and got nothing good a lot saying was awful tho 

Solo event:The event was really great. Grindable if times allow. I didn't have problems with the matchmaking which makes it a huge advantage when it comes to grinding.   

Rewards: They still fall in the short category for the league and roster size I have but for minor leagues very good.   

Milestones: Very easily and grindable if the time allows. Rewards as presented are not the best for higher leagues but very good for minor leagues.  

Overall Idea: If I have to rate the whole idea I would say 8/10 if i have to rate the whole scenario of reaching that idea 8/10

PS. not gonna talk about the Money in the bank rewards for required superstars cause it was shameful using acro bliss and acro Edge.

Pros: The content was very good and accessible to all ayers not just people who spend. Milestones were much easier to come by.

Tours where simple and easier than expected which is a good thing.

Cons: Game lagging on rewards need to be fixed. Don't like that I have to restart the game to see rewards. Odds on pulls need to be better. Shouldn't be able to spend $150 and not get at least one new character. Also make the required players for event more common players than superstars that are rare. Makes it more competitive for people who don't spend.

The overall of the event was nice I liked it alot. Gave alot of resources to help build a better roster. Hope it stays more like this have a nice day

Pros:

• New match making seemed nearly perfect;
• The revamp in Showdown Coins was good.
• Event was mainly grindable to complete but...

Cons:

• ... Requering 470 matches was a slap in the face;
• Kept getting the minimum amount of shards in the bag and it was demotivating;
• Why making a mix event if no women were giving bonus?

Pros

1. It had a great choice of characters that are mostly free to play of easy to get..
2. the matchmaking was far better so you could use the contest stars faster.
3. The amount of maximum coins you can get significantly improved I and everyone being able to get more showdown store items short and long term.
4. The blitz was amazing to get many rewards that you require even just by doing normal.

Cons

1. The reward drop rates were poosuggestions coming on this later on.
2. The 400 wins was brutal using kofi this averages 4-6 hour kofi victories in a row with all matches in favour 200s enough.
3. the character choices could have been better money in bank tour.

Improvements suggestions

1. Add a pity timer so after so many loot pulls get a star that is very rare+
2. Reduce amount of wins required to use common stars 200 is more than enough.
3. Reduce amount of blitz tickets required a little for hell mode 2000 could be more than enough if heavy grinding for doink.
4. Make sure the star selection for bonus tours are at least usable alexa was ok but edge not.

Conclusion

Ultimately this was my favourite showdown contest as of late. It given many opportunities to try and get the exclusive superstar and materials to build our roster, but would be greater if you had to grind so many wins you could guarantee the premium star or loot coins for trying to obtain someone new.

Im unsure if this contest was doable or not. My enthusiasm to play is going down. Need something to rejuvenate my interest. This contest read like other SD tournaments. Showdown needs a way to reset noteriety when you hit a wall. I played up to 700 noteriety and was stuck. Resetting it would have been good then we could just use Kofi to grind wins not noteriety.

The overall event was a mixed bag with its plus and minus.

The idea of giving more sd coins was welcome as it is much needed but to reduce th points for each sd coin earned was a disappointment.

On top of that to grind for 400 matches for using kofi was not good at all. It is really time consuming and exhausting. Not everyone has all free time to spend hrs. playing 400 matches. Also the rewards in last few milestones of event were not so good this time as compared to previous events. Besides that we had to deal with glitches and bugs that happened during reset of showdown coins made the overall contest less enjoyable.

I am sure there were many common characters that could have been added in this event with less amount of runs instead of asking players to use one character for 400 matches which is disheartening.

The matchmaking was much better this time and hope it continues the same. Overall an event that was maxable but turned out to be a painful grind.

Pros

• Another event where if you were able to grind all the way to victory
• Had no problem finding playable opponents

Cons

• 400 Kofi matches?!
• No female rewards, so it really didnt matter who else you had. Should have split up the Kofi matches to have any Alexa for 200.
• Doink design sucks. Looks nothing like the original and is just a bland killer clown. Not a fan.

7/10 event!

I guess you can add a feature where if the game crashes mid-game, once the app is reopened, player can pick up where the player left off. That way, player don't need to report game crashes over and over again, and no need to ask for health packs.

Solo and Faction Event targets are a little bit high. Even if you play the game whole day, it's not guaranteed you'll finish the daily quests + events. Those players who only have one hour a day to play will have a hard time to catch up especially if you're just getting started.

There should be belt for Icons of Wrestlmenia characters as well. I'm not sure about this but I haven't seen one just yet so I just assumed that there's none

This is almost peak SD. The matchmaking in my case was really fair, it wasn't until the 1000+ mark when I had to refresh to go up against non 5ss - and if you are at 1k rating, it's fine and expecting to go against 5ss teams (which I can do - just not with the CSS needed...). More SD coins were great, too, although lowering the points meant it wasn't a huge deal in terms of contest points, but heck, more currency for the SD store, neat.

At any rate, any event that is grindable is a huuuge plus in my mind and since there were basically "too many" points available with tours and all, I'm pretty sure just about anyone with a Kofi and at least some guys should should have been able to "easily" max it. On that note: It's been said multiple times, but switching up the needed guys or just go for "SD matches" instead of "Kofi matches" would have been nice, but I won't complain about the free boss plate I've wanted.

Didn't get Doink in the end and with about 1250 shards I'm nowhere near recruiting, but it is, what it is: nowadays you pull the guys from bags (or paid pulls) or you recruit them 12 months later when their shards become available - and they've dropped two tiers.

Honestly overall the contest was meh, I understand doink isn't anything special and you guys can't make all of them more broken then the next one there has to be some meh stuff also. The SD event was a big step up from the last one, I am glad you guys took everyone advice about giving more coins instead of keeping them the same for hitting 1k. It made it much more enjoyable, Plus I am big fan of the mixed match SD so hopefully you guys do more of those in the future.
