The Demon of Judgment Showdown Scrimmage

Yeah, I started struggling on the end of hard actually. Your absolutely right

Restrictions on specific types of characters to use is becoming difficult to take part in events. I'm seeing less and less open challenges. I've worked hard on my wrestlemania Rey Mysterio, he is strong in fueds and showdown but never seem to be able to use him in events

You guys need to change showdown up. It is ot very time friendly for most players. 5 hours to get above 1400 notoriety is just a joke now. The point system sucks and you get attacked way to much.

I've been playing this game since it came out and even though sometimes the events ask for many requirements that I don't have, I keep playing this game because I really like wwe, that's why I suggest that f2p players like me should be given more chances have a better experience in the events of the weekend and that the fighter requirements are not as demanding

Risk vs reward is very low. This event is a pay to win and play event just like the game is becoming. Loot pulls are throttled down based on roster. And before you say that it’s not, realize that most of us see what’s really going on. When you have a range of 5* to 6* and only get 5-20 shards, that’s not what you’re advertising. Also requiring Finn for one tour when we all know that he sucks, is not something we look forward to. Having to level up wrestlers that we don’t use, and not getting those resources back are why people stop playing. Showdown scoring system is screwed up still, and you gave out more points for a shitty Finn than you did for other bonus characters that you hide behind a paywall 10 feet of concrete thick. No matter how much we grind on these events, we can’t get the new stars that are op for everyone with shallow pockets and accounts. Rewards need to be raised for us players keeping your company going.

Solo Contest:

Overall, the contest was enjoyable, but there are a few areas that could be improved for next time. One issue was that the point requirements for the gold chest seemed too high, which made it difficult for many participants to reach. It may be helpful to adjust the point values for the next contest to better reflect the difficulty of the challenges. Additionally, the rewards for the contest were similar to those of previous contests, which was somewhat disappointing. It would be great to see some new and exciting rewards introduced in future contests to keep things fresh and engaging for participants.

Scrimmage Prize wall

The prize wall for the contest had some great options, but there are a few areas that could be improved for next time. On the positive side, there were plenty of coins available to buy a variety of prizes, which was nice to see. The addition of star fragments was also a good touch, as it gave players another way to earn rewards. However, it would have been great to see some new and unique rewards that were not available in previous contests. While some prizes were different, many were similar to those of previous contests. Additionally, it might have been better to offer strap bits instead of medal bits, as the former are in higher demand and could have added more value to the prize wall. Another suggestion would be to include some of the older scrimmage characters at lower coin values. This would not only add some more variety to the prize wall, but also give players a chance to get characters they may have missed out on in previous contests. Overall, the prize wall was good, but a few changes could make it even better for the next contest.

Tours

The tour matches for this contest were challenging, which was great, but there were a few areas that could have been improved to make it more enjoyable for all players. The Hell mode having a 6-star boss made it very difficult for players to obtain shard bags, which was frustrating for many. Offering strap bits on the prize wall could have helped with this issue, as players could have equipped the required characters with gem def straps to better tackle the boss. However, it was nice to see that the reward for winning such a hard match was a great character designed by the team, so I understand the reasoning behind the difficulty level. Still, it would have been better if some additional rewards were given for beating the hard match, such as extra solo contest points or other rewards. Overall, the tour matches were challenging, but with a few tweaks, they could be even more enjoyable for all players.

The Showdown weekend was a big let down. Typically the chase for the SD weekends are usually easy to get than the others, but it seems like this month, the 6 year anniversary of the game so far has been more taxing on the wallet than actually having fun in the game.

The tours for this weekend’s event was atrocious. Having Balor as the character to use for an entire tour and Beth Phoenix as the CSS for the Rhea Ripley match was like pulling teeth. Had to get the faction mates and Mherex’s help on how to beat those matches and it caused serious problems with my low medal bits and strap parts to get Balor’s done. Having Brock strapless and medalless was the only saving grace to beating him with a 5sg Striker Balor with almost full armor. Having the tours a little less restrictive would feel better by me and most of the community members.

The solo event was the same as always, but wish there were more shard bags for Balor available in each bonus milestone of the event. I do not know why the shards has to be as tight as it is. I had most of the CSS, but for any player without promoters, 1 hit or turn characters, or just totally new to the game are going to struggle in all weekend events, even the MLC. It’s too time consuming for the average player. For me, I find different superstars and ways with trainers and coaches to get it done quickly.

The prizewall was a disappointment in some ways. It’s disappointing that getting the 3ss version of Balor was not possible without spending at least 300 dollars. The only saving grace of the prizewall this time were the star fragments that was obtainable. Also disappointing were the selection and amount of times you can get a character’s shards. Carmella, HoF HHH and Bret were easy to get and already have those. What about other 2k shard recruit superstars like Razor and Nakamura? Did you forget about those? Also it could be a perfect opportunity to put shard bags or guaranteed shards of Balor or Priest that was released as a way of getting closer to obtain or to obtain them. It’s a missed opportunity.

The faction event was a complete joke unless you are in Top Shelf Booty. I already knew once the plate was made available that Booty and Woken would be fighting to the death for 1st place like 2 Jaws going at it in sea for the delicious helpless human in the sea. Missed opportunity again to add some more shards of Priest or Balor. The chests are a complete joke… 10 shards of Acro Montez or Tech Dawkins or SB Miz?!? Very, very condescending and angry about those shards unless you pull a 4sb Tech Brock like some lucky people, it’s a complete bust and should be eliminated as a milestone reward until Scopely gets serious and ups the amount of shards you get or eliminate the shards all together and make it a 4s chest of more recent characters… no garbage, out of date, 6 year old characters!

The loot and offers were complete trash. The featured should really not have anything but the best, whether it’s shards or card, especially the featured character for the weekend. It should not have any of the past free characters in that spot like PH Otis. It was a slap in the face to pull that crappy character. Offers were a big disappointment as there were not as many prizewall coins than the last time to be able to get enough for 3ss Balor. To be fair, the blog did say how you were able to obtain the character in the prizewall, but it seem that subject to change language only works when Scopely sees fit. Could have done the offers a lot different, but felt like I got stiffed big time.

Overall, this event and the entire month feels like the Montreal Screwjob of 1997. I don’t know if it’s because Scopely thinks they can give us free stuff each week then turn around and make things overly expensive or almost impossible to obtain things in the event to make up giving things away or not. It’s always one step forward then 3 steps back in this game since I have been playing 5 years ago.

Overall I think this event has been extremely disappointing, with each event I look at the needed SS and the likelihood of having them, Brock ROTB is a heavily paywalled character and giving an unbelievable amount of points for having him made this the first character in a long time that was a showdown character unattainable with minimal spending etc.

As has been mentioned by some on here, there are numerous tours locked out by very rare characters and those reward chests giving 10 shards are terrible and a slap in the face to long term players, the token prizes given are bad too nobody that has been playing over a year wants/needs 2/3 star tokens at all.

Balor as a character is cool, most of us wanted a balor that was good and not also heavily paywalled (Mutant Balor) so myself and others were happy to see he was a showdown character so would be attainable as usual, however, nope!

All in all, I’m glad for those that had the money to go crazy/get lucky with pulls but for the majority that rely on SD as the one new character (other than chase) they get each event - this one really hurt.

Likes:

1. It was challenging to use a character like Balor who hasn’t got the strongest builds so that was nice for a change instead of the same old rinse and repeat with OP SS
2. The amount of battles needed by the CSS was low and that is a great quality of life change for the players
3. Even though it’s inaccessible for most the over-arching theme of Judgement Day (prizewall and blitz) is a cool new thing in game for a real-life faction.

Dislikes:

1. Significantly disproportionate contest points for the ultra rare characters.
2. Medallion prize-wall did not have tier 5 medals as usual. I guess some were happy with the star-fragments instead so that’s fair enough.
3. Another faction event that you know only 1/2 factions ever had a shot at - (suggestion - just send an in game message to the faction that comes top rather than let everyone else be frustrated at no opportunity to get it)
4. Another really cool character that most miss out on as a usable Balor is hard to find.

Thanks,

Max

The amount of battles required was a much larger time suck than previous showdown events. One of the positives of the showdown contest imo is being able to do it on your own time. But this one had a commitment to showdown that felt nearly unreasonable.

I couldn’t agree more. I couldn’t even make it to the 1400 notoriety even with a page full of 5SGs. 6S has ruined the showdown.

The event was really fun so far. It's just a pity that you have to cash a lot to get finn. but the prices were ok.
