I dropped from around 2500 to 3300 overnight. The higher you get the slower your progress so it probably works out to a similar amount of work to get back to where you were before.

I went from 4,000 to 6,500 last night, after going 9,000 to 16,000 the night before. I'm aiming for the double epics.

Yeah I think we all are.

I just hit that annoying part in a levelup where your opponents tend to have maxed pro epics/maxed legendaries and random commons, making winning matches a bit of a crapshoot as you always lose if they don't send out their poo poo cards. Might have to try to artificially lower my level until I can max out my epic pro cards and not auto-lose those matchups. I have become the monster :negative:

I got too many Rares and nothing to really combine and now I am hitting the card limit constantly unless I feed wrestlers other dudes every few matches

Feed a Rare, then feed it to whatever you pick up next? There'll be some loss of XP, but you still keep a lot of the XP you put in.

why are you not constantly training the ones you actually like to the maximum? Why do you keep cards around that aren't in your KOTR?

Once you get a card and the pro version it's always checked off in your catalog, though. Holding onto it afterward, unless it's part of your exhibition or KOTR team, does nothing but take up space.

Go reread the original complaint. He doesn't have the duplicates to combine to check off the pros.

Actually it is because I literally just started playing Friday and got stuck in a KOTR right off the bat so I haven't actually formulated a KOTR team for my actual bracket. I got P-R Orton, Kane, Hulk and Yoko now though!

I did a KOTR over the weekend and was similarly murdering it all the way to the final match. I won the first game then the other guy swapped out his team for a much stronger team and proceeded to murder me 3-0 in the next two games :argh: I still got a pair of SR Andres out of it which handily replaced my R Brock Lesnar in my lineup so I can't complain too much but it still sucked getting stomped at the last minute like that.

e - current lineup is

Pro SR Andre
Pro R Big Show
SR Christian
SR Hogan
Pro R Paige

all max levels and consistently winning enough matches to keep me happy but I'm not looking forward to having to grind through more KOTR's to get enough SR pairs to get up to the next tier in the game.

I was hoping to finish in the top 10k of the Cena v Lesnar thing but I've slipped from ~7k to ~14k in the rankings just while I've been at work today so I don't think I can physically play enough matches in the next 24 hours to end the thing with a decent rank.

The People's Challenge came on the perfect weekend for me. I had nothing to do but laze around, so I could watch things while grinding through matches. Needing to get to the 2nd SR Paige helped motivate doing it.

Sitting at 1100, hoping that I don't lose enough ground over the next ~16 hours to not be able to grind back into the Epic pair.

My KotR just finished, I stopped paying attention and lost in the quarter finals. Fair enough.

My prize? A UR Nikki.

90% of supercard players would love that.

I, on the other hand, have a pro SR. AJ and a maxed UR Brie already.

Why can't I twin magic in supercard?

How many points do you have? Just wondering about the ballpark I'd need to get to for the epic pair from rank 5500.

Thanks. It's not completely out of reach from 1743 points, but drat if that won't be annoying to get. Turns out wanting to level cards is a good way to shoot up event ranks!

What is a better prize in the long run?

1x Epic Card and 1x Ultra Rare Support

Or

2x Ultra Rare Cards?

I imagine 2 ultra rare cards when maxed out would be better. I'm in the same boat with the tourney. I'm at about 26000 points and I know if I grind at it this evening I could probably get an Ultra Rare Lesnar, but I think I'd rather just have the pare of super rare pros.

Pros can take out regular (even max leveled) of the next tier up. The chance to get a good Pro card eventually is worth it.

No hints of NXT in the gameplay trailer - So Im guessing a second trailer will be on the show tonight? Otherwise the Next Generation thing doesnt make a whole lot of sense. Though as always with WWE, I am prepare to be disappointed.

next generation can also refer to the new consoles that they are being put out on for the first time

also the only thing Daniel Bryan was in the trailer for was to be Pedigreed

For what it is worth, Rusev was not announced in the trailer originally so he's probably part of NXT.

Finally got an UR human being thanks to getting into the first round of KOTR. It's Naomi. I'll take that. My R Pro AJ was starting to get middling, and the drive to get the second SR Paige is less crucial.

Naomi and a ladder. Ooh, yeah, dig it.
