When I last checked in it seemed that Brock was walking away with it. Cool mode, I'll be happy if I crack the top 50k in points.

Also, I think they had something like 3 million downloads, so it's a bit of a hit.

Here's a Q so maybe you can A it.

I'm currently almost done with Super Rare + tier. Do you stop getting Common cards at some point or do they always get thrown at you for some stupid reason?

I just got to Epic and still pull commons. I wish they'd reset things at SRs and not just Rare cards but still. At that point you're just collecting them to either use for training your better cards or to have a unique avatar (Pro common Dusty Rhodes or Jake the Snake? Sure, why not).

It's a Goog Day, yes it is!
Commons are cheap, easy fodder to feed to the bigger cards. I don't have a problem getting them. It makes the rares feel more...rare.

I know it's easy to just keep feeding them to your better cards, but as you move up, they barely make a dent.

One time a guy stole some downhill skis out of my jeep and I was so mad I punched a mailbox. I'm against crime, and I'm not ashamed to admit it.
The top 4 players have over 6000 points each already. I probably won't even crack 1000 by the time is is over.

Here's my current lineup:

Pro-R The Rock, Lv20
SR Rey Mysterio, Lv20
SR John Cena, Lv20 (Ladder Reward version)
Pro-R Rey Mysterio, Lv20
Pro-R Paige, Lv20

I'm ranked around 45k right now. I can stomp +1's with little to no effort at this point, and have a pretty decent winrate against +3's. My question is whether it makes sense for me to try and shoot for 25k for a UR, or just treat watter in the 25k-70k division and pick up 2 SR Brocks? Hell, does it make sense at all to put a Brock in this very, very blue deck? One of the things I like so much about it is that The Rock is left-aligned and everyone else is right, so if I keep him in reserve I can always generate a 10% tag bonus.

I'm not really sure what you want them to do other than put up a big ol confirmation screen saying "HEY YOU'RE FEEDING A RARE OR BETTER ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THIS?"

Doesn't the game do exactly this already? I always get a prompt when feeding and/or combining any card higher than Uncommon.

It also allows you to sort by rarity. Like, hit the train button, show only Commons, train, repeat with Uncommons.

My solution when I want to feed a rare is to feed off all my un/commons first and then feed one rare at a time. Just to be sure.

I've been there, you just have to keep at it and be awake for your top 8's. Managed to get lucky and find a KotR without too many ringers and made the finals once, and then in another my top 8 and out rare ended up being a 2nd Epic Bray Wyatt that I'd had from a previous tourney.

Yeah, had full energy and max boosts for each game, we ended up going 2-1 in all 3 games, him taking the latter two matches. My weak spot at the moment is that I'm just using an epic diva, which means I'm gonna lose to any UR Pro.

I hope that leaderboard spots become less fluid when it gets closer to the end. I don't want to go to sleep when there's a few hours left worrying about whether or not I'll get the pair of Epic Brocks.

If it's anything like the last pointlessly grindy bullshit I tried (the Marvel game) it gets more intense at the last minute rather than less. That one had a time limit to how much you could do in a certain amount of time though and I guess there's no p2w component for this thing so maybe that won't happen.

I doubt it though. If these people have time to grind out 1,000+ games in a day on the first day, I'm pretty sure they're going to grind out the same amount or more on the last.

$0.10 per match for double points can rack up when it's less than a minute per match.

Yeah you're probably boned if you don't do that, at least to some extent. It'll be fun to see how far you drop if you don't grind like crazy the last couple hrs and/or not boost the points.

I'm thinking that maybe, instead of leveling up a second batch of McMahons to pro them, I might start cultivating a yellow-triangle deck to change things up a bit when I'm sick of looking at stupid Cena and Miz and sick of angrily hoping for Macho Man Savage or a second SR Chris Jericho. I've got two SR Yokozunas, Big Shows and Dean Ambroses, all bottom triangles. I have no doubles of yellow top triangles.

Seriously just give me UR Macho Man. UR+ is a lie.

I got bad news for you.

I've been on epic++ for a while and I've never seen an Epic drop. I've got a lot of UR+ cards in my deck because I can't win a KOTR and keep getting just epics and nothing to pro them with. If I don't get the 2x Epic or better from People's Champ, I think I gotta give this game up.

I think I might be right since I only dropped about 500 spots last night, compared to 3,000 from the night before.
