Didn't know that. Ah. Well that's... that's bizarre. They don't make any attempt to differentiate Immortals DB from everyday DB at all?

Hell, if anything, he's more of a lumberjack than Big Show.

Yes Yes Yes DB is just him in the shirt. No No No DB is a faun, a goat-human hybrid.

He is "guy wearing Yes T-Shirt and jeans" in his common form.

His gold form is evil goat man or something.

From the story it seems like normal rear end Daniel Bryan and Authority HHH are the "real" versions of them thrown into this fantasy world.

Instead of running over the opponent like John Cena's army car, it summons a dump truck and buries the opponent under pancakes.

The AI in Immortals really sucks. You can pretty much stunlock a character by doing nothing but taps and ignoring the swipes at the end of combos. I just went through a Main Event and beat entire teams using only Sheamus.

i knew this game would be like mobile injustice but this is literally mobile injustice. whatever though i like that game a lot. i kind of like bryan being himself, a lot of fighting games have some sort of everyman protagonist and who the hell would fit that more than
bryan. though his final form being an evil goat demon is pretty loving cool. also it's pretty drat funny his idle animation is him just doing the yes taunt.

and triple h just kind of pie faces wyatt and takes the macguffin is :laffo:

Immortals pro tip, buy a discounted Gold booster immediately. Don't buy any Bronze or Silver poo poo, save for the 75,000 gold pack everyday.

Immortals is fun but it definitely seems pretty shallow due to the limited number of moves and touchscreen controls. Man I hope they make a console version with cutting edge 1992 features like "jumping".

Buying two bronzes so you get (ideally) two full teams sounds like a better idea at the start.

Yeah I bought a silver undertaker and a bronze daniel bryan to I could have two full teams where every member is boosting off each other, and now I'm going to save up and build a gold team over the next week or two depending on what my drops are from those boosters. Once I get a solid gold team where everyone gets along I'll be fuckin' set and never have to spend any money on this thing.

Also you should do all the daily challenges in online if you have the correct characters, because they pay a lot of gold.

Trust me, you only need one gold card and you have the game pretty much beat. In Injustice I spent a lot of points to get high leveled Bronze and Silver cards but you will hit a wall quickly. Plus having multiple teams is pointless in early game. Fights only take one energy and they fully recover in about 3 hours for another 10 fights. Late game fights that practically require Gold cards take 3 energy per fight. You want a fully upgraded Gold team as fast as possible and then get 5 more teams if you want to grind.

Again, this is just suggestions. The other strategies might work for you guys. Plus this looks much smaller so getting a full roster should be much easier.

I got my Bronze Paige up to level 20 so I got her finisher. She does the Paige Turner and then summons a murder of crows that carry the opponent into the sky and dump them back to the ground.

So the plot of Immortals is that Bray Wyatt's magic lantern summons dudes from different universes, yet Bray himself isn't even in the game?

If it's anything like Injustice, there are gonna be a ton of updates including characters for online tournaments and single player challenges. The small initial roster is the thing that really gets me.

Is there a trick to blocking? Every time I do it my character blocks for a split second then drops it and gets hit by whatever special attack is coming

Yeah, that's happened to me quite a bit in online mode. I'm not sure if it's a connection glitch, or people gaming it somehow to get a few extra hits in. The extra character will end up walking all the way across to the other side of the screen.

Was there anything like this that happened in the Injustice mobile game?

You're not actually playing against live people online, so I don't think it's cheaters. I've also seen a super completely misalign so my guy was just being thrown around in the air with the opponent several feet away from him, so I'm just going to assume this game is not very well put together.

Yeah, I was gonna say, it's pretty certain that there is no direct competition (hence the MP and SP fighting being just as easy to fool). Kinda like Supercard.

It's completely possible to make enough currency in a single day to unlock a gold pack at the discount, as long as you're doing the single player stuff, which once you hit the mini-bosses on the third level of start paying out nearly 10k per ladder, and doing the daily online challenges which give around 10k for getting all three as well. I'm now rocking a team of gold HHH, gold Daniel Bryan, and silver Undertaker. I'm hoping for either gold Reigns or Big Show for my next one, as then I'll have a good balance of rivals and allies on my team for the boosts.

Once you get a single gold the single player stuff basically feels like cheating, by the way. It will still be throwing high level bronze guys at you, and you'll be knocking down half their health in a single combo.

Every pack, besides the gear one, is a wrestler of that rank plus 2 other cards. Those cards are either ones that give permanent upgrades to all specific characters (all Kanes, all Undertakers etc) or you can get free upgrades to moves to make them stronger.

I'd want to see what those cards look like at level 20. They aren't all created equal when you get them level up.

Also a gold tier HHH at level 20, without even leveling his supers, can pretty much destroy an entire team of lower tier cards singlehandedly in less than a minute.

Take me to your Shida

Was talking with a friend of mine about Supercard (he plays way more than I do) and he revealed this hilarious nugget about the "new and improved" rtg:

:) : so i got the first bnb
:) : playing +6 matches against one or two guys solely, especially at the end, one guy
:) : now I can't beat the same guy at 0/190
:) : it's really terrible
:) : everyone's (even the guys with pcc pros) are having to grind +1s
:v: : how is that possible
:v: : are the +5s just dummy decks?
:) : yep
:) : they introduced bots
:) : who have every pcc pro, even not perfectly pro'd they still beat any survivor pro
:) : people are literally buying titles for +1 bouts to finish

Amazing
