There is some strong competition for the prize, but this change is easily one of the worst. You guys are literally pushing people away from playing the game. Most players now have no reason to play feud beyond the 50m warscore.
Instead of winning a feud match at 5,000 points per win, we now need to pull 5,000 shards for the same amount of points. Who even suggested this idea?
Maxing this contest is now out of reach for 99% of players. I would say I'm a reasonably high-level player with more characters than most, but I just can't keep up. Unless you got last weekend's poster and multiple rare posters from previous months, you can't even participate in contests anymore.
Please reconsider and add back the 5k win bonus. Most players need hundreds of wins to compensate for missing CSS anyway, so it's not as if you guys are just handing out free rewards by having wins as a point method.

I read the blog having high hopes for this event and once again the ball is dropped. This change is easily one of the worst changes I've seen and honestly what is the point of the tiebreaker if you can't get even 5k Bradshaw shards? Even bumping the points up to 1k would suffice but 1?

This game is going downhill fast. You previously stated the way we play was about to completely change. I guess you taught us not assume that it was for the better. It's beyond getting ridiculous because it's already there.

1000% co-signed. I play with many people that expect they will maybe have to grind 200 or maybe even 400 css matches or more for feud CSS requirements. It's usually not fun, but it gets done because maxing the CSS competition is such a big/vital part to having a successful weekend.
This new change just makes the event 100% a roster check with a spend element. Plus it's not even about leaderboard, it's the sheer fact that missing one card can make this event essentially impossible to max and then what's the point? This would totally check me out of the weekend and it's only Thursday night. I really hope y'all reconsider trying to go down this route. The feedback will not go well.

So now you are making it that if you don't get 75% of the weekend cards, just don't bother playing any more. You'll just be CSS'd out of every single contest- don't have 2 cards week 1, so week 2 is ruined, don't have week 1 and 2 and cannot do flash feuds if this sticks- brutal - here’s to hoping I can max by pulling 1.8 million shards 🙄🙄🙄who is running this company ? You claimed “we want people to play more” and then you put contest after contest out where a huge chunk of your clientele can’t play. Do better!

It's not smart to make changes that hender the little guys to where just trying to hit the faction minimum war score is becoming harder to do let alone max the war score , if it keeps going like this a lot of people are talking about quitting the game. Sad really 😥

This is just ridiculous. What's the point of even playing anymore. You expect people to have to spend to reach milestones with garbage rewards that are progressively get worse. It's bad enough to have to grind hundreds of matches for this garbage. I'm a pretty big spender. That has pretty much stopped. At this point I'm strongly considering just quitting the game. I guess you all won't be happy until everyone does that

As a competitive feuder this is a joke. The superstar contest was already a somewhat paywalled event in the sense if you were missing 2-3 CSS the event wasn’t worth maxing for most. I usually would stupidly grind 4-600 matches to max this in some cases. Feud is the only game mode left that i actually enjoy. If this keeps getting tinkered with to monetise it even more then you’ll be losing a 6 year player. Not that it makes any difference to you guys since I’m not willing to drop the obscene amounts of money each week that you expect us all to drop. Stop killing the game man this is becoming less fun as the months go by.

I feel like the grind is a bit much, well I get the aspect that it can't be super easy. We need to figure out a way to restructure the points to reflect, other than just a super long grind that 99 percent don't have time for.

Hello everyone and thank you for the feedback. I will be combining this with the main thread to simplify where the team is able to review the feedback

Not much to add other than general outrage, as I feel most have already said everything. The Superstar Competition was already paywalled enough, now there’s literally zero reason to play beyond my 50 million for the warscore and whatever bonus matches I can get.
I understand (and even agree) that not every event is supposed to be, or even should be, maxed by everyone. But taking one that is already massively paywalled and making it harder (or just downright impossible) is pretty low.
There have been some MASSIVE swings and misses as of late with events, character changes (even though those were fixed and in some cases might have made them better), and just general tweaks made to the game. I hope this gets fixed so this isn’t added to the list. Unless this is just one of the ways that is going to “change how we play the game,” because if it gets much worse, it will. I’ll just stop.
Signed,
Someone who’s played since day one and just wants a fun game, not an endless money pit of frustration

I am not a fan of this change. Actually playing the game is becoming less and less important as everything seems to be focused on spending and spending alone. This is coming from someone who does spend. Players should be able to grind their way to rewards and in turn grow their rosters without constantly opening their wallets. I believe we all understand that spending will always be integral in the game, however, I think it's been going a bit too far recently and their needs to be a healthy balance. Finding that balance will ensure enjoyment for all player types while also keeping the game competitive for all involved.

Are you kidding us 1 shards = 1point
So instead of doing that it's better to remove TIEBREAKER
It might better to increase TIEBREAKER Points to 10k each win so we can grind and with a little bit of spend we end up getting closer to the character of somewhat closer to the Character
Hopefully you have a deep thinking on my suggestions
lastly remove this 1point for 1 shard thing

This gotta be the worst month in champions history with every month champions is touching new lows there's no way to get even half the solo points from superstar competition then how one can reach the so called FREE Milestone at 6.8mil? And who even asked for this change 95% of the player base will agree with all the other champions that raised their voices concerns regarding this change. With every update with every passing month it's becoming worse and worse

Keep on destroying the game .....soon people will stop playing.
You take feedbacks but don't even implement or even give a s**t about the players.
All you want is to fill your pockets and prolly you'll delete this comment since you are so cry babies.
How are we supposed to get the new characters without spending...no shards and even if there are shards it'll be either 5 or 10 ...which is absolute bull crap.
You need to change a few things give more shards atleast 100 is minimum.
Bring back the grinding stuff and also try making events that are easily obtainable.

what I thought when I saw the blog of 5000 per shards was awesome at first. It put a lot more people in the running to compete this weekend. You cou miss at least 4 css and still go for boards and such. Then when it came out that it would be one point per shard (and free shards are only 1600 in total), that too most of your player base out of contention for anything this weekend. There is also in the blog that says recruit shards to help you get to the next milestone (or something like that). There is not way anywhere with the number of points needed in a milestone that 1600 point is going to help you get anywhere. To be fair, it should be at least 900 to 1000 points per shard. That way if you are still missing one or two css, there is still a chance to max like what used to be in the grind portion. Lastly, can we figure out a way where you DO NOT need to get the previous weeks card to have a shot at maxing the next week? It is, again, taking a number of your player base out of competition and you will lose them to this game eventually. There are plenty of other cards in this game that could be used as css without using the precious weekends chase and could still fit into the themed event.

echoing what others have said this tiebreaker chance is ridiculous. For one thing it doesn’t even let you get close to touching any milestone as is and won’t actually work as a tiebreaker since most in your own faction will get the same number of shards. It should be 1000 points per 1 shard to match up with the previous tiebreaker setup and even then there will still be lots all with the same point value as there’s only so many achievable shards. This change will drive people away from the game and not just free players. I would imagine you will loose tons of spenders from this if it continues to be this way and is not fixed. Be smart and actually listen to feedback once in a while. It’s crazy to me that devs do basically whatever they want and the one that should be pushing players feedback up to them could care less. Doesn’t seem like a smart way to make money.

This is a horrible change literally no real reason to grind past 50m. As you can probably see a lot of people don't like this change. Hope this isn't going to be the way forward. Unless you want people to play less

I don't know if any contest is immune from being influenced by heavy spending but the CSS competition was as close as it got for this game.
Not allowing players to make up missing contest superstars, or try to compete for leaderboard spots, through continued, marathon-like dedication to your game is a baffling decision. A player could spend 20 hours feuding (and probably spend, too, by the way!) and finish behind someone who played a fraction of that time but swiped the plastic enough times to pull Bradshaw multiple times over. It just doesn't make sense.

Great feedback so far. I'm sure the team will be interested to see the overall feel.

Add my voice to those beyond displeased. I don't even see the point! What was the logic? It literally encourages people to PLAY LESS. I'm in an approximately top 25 faction, sometimes as high as 11 or so, and always feud on par with the numbers expected of some of the top factions in the game. I enjoy the mode. This change has killed almost all motivation to push beyond what I can get and instead I'll just be done with it.
Simply put, garbage change and a huge miss.

Making me not want to play anymore, but we all know y'all don't give two shits as long as the money is rolling in. Literally the worst change ever!

Getting points and everything else combined has been tougher than usual. The events have been fine, just wish I had more attitude era type chracters. Also the loot rates for the event are a bit much... Haven't gotten anything and really not hopeful for loot crates

This one was a big miss, sorry to say. The changes to the scoring and prizewall were very unnecessary and felt like you guys really didn't want us to achieve anything in this contest.
The tiebreaker change absolutely cripples the ability for players to do the contest. It absolutely needs to revert back to the way it was.
The prizewall change felt like an insult. We have been able to get enough tokens to get a free poster. This time, it was 1 short of enough for a poster, meaning we needed to pay money this time if we wanted the poster. That is such a regressive action. I looked forward to playing feuds to get the rewards. Knowing I wasn't going to get anything decent without spending money drastically reduced my enthusiasm.

Absolutely nothing new this time, so you can describe everything in a few words:
Roads:
it's good that they finally removed clan points and added solo points and resources. It's a good move though I can't figure out why add a rock as the final boss in the road with a moon character. It's better to put something on easier.
New character:
A very weak character using only one interesting mechanic. A In my opinion, it is needed exclusively for bosses, and the coaching ability is very weak.
Feud:
It's good that the minimum wage has been reduced to 50k, if there is nothing useful to offer, then at least they lowered it to 50, and thanks for that. True, it is not clear why again there are only 3 medallions if the character of which you can buy costs 5. Considering that the character, to put it mildly, is not very strong, and even without a costume. For 100 shards, you also have to pay 19 bucks, again, it’s not clear why this was done, taking into account the fact that there, again, the characters are not new, one of the three characters can generally be bought entirely. Since you are artificially creating a grind for players, at least make worthy rewards. Technical stability seems to be better this time, since I never had any sorties or delays
Fractional event:
It's good that they again upgraded the era and the kelass of the characters, and even put points into the feud instead of the old 6-star upgrade.
Shop:
Good characters are offered for purchase this time, and free chests finally include shards of other characters besides the event one. The pools themselves with the new character are disgusting and do not cause any desire to buy them. The characters in them are outdated and not needed for the most part in the ordinary and not ordinary sections, and not only in them, it turns out that there is no point in buying them, since apart from these two sections, nothing ever drop.
Let's summarize the results:
Good:
- returned shards to bags with a new character.
- Lowered the minimum value for the feud.
- Higher stability of the feud mode.
- Removed clan event points from roads and replaced them with resources.
- Good offers to buy whole characters in the store
Bad:
- The new character is very weak and with a practically useless trainer ability.
- Again, an additional fee for feud coins is required to buy the proposed character
- Disgusting donation pools with ancient and fieldless characters in the commo and uncommon section
Final score 7/10.

Next I will give my opinion about the event I will start with the tours that I would have liked to have given to the boastful JBL since several do not have it or the cheater, even if it is low, so that it could be added more easily. Apart from that, I have nothing more to say on that part. On the part of the faction feud, I don't like that one has to beat a 6ss to add a high amount of points. We all don't have 6ss grade super stars, only those who buy and it limits the progress a lot with winning 6 bronze super stars. It should add the same or almost the same as when defeating a 6 silver star On the part of the warcore, I would like them to put the tokens in the rewards of 30 million as before in I was and in the 50 boxes of medals and other things such as medallions for plaques, since by putting the diamond and emerald tokens so high, many become demotivated. it would be better to put them at the 30 million point milestone the rewards of the individual event seemed very good to me, I hope these aspects improve to continue enjoying this game and I hope to win that JBL since I like it a lot and I don't have any good version of it
