I got told I was in the top 5% but I only got a new title out of it, did i misread it or what.

And yeah I saved up for a gold, got Necrotaker, and the only real difference he's making is that now I have to fight teams of all-golds in online play. He's very slow and often will just stand there and eat a super while I frantically try to block. I'm bad at WWE: Immortals.

I only got a title too. What the hell?

Immortals got its first Challenge, and the reward is Cyborg Brock Lesnar. But it's a grind, mainly because it requires currency you can only get doing normal challenges. This is where a second deck makes sense.

A second deck is pretty much a Gold card with some Bronzes to fill space, so it's not too bad. They give you enough at the start to finish 2 ladders to get a free Bronze booster.

But for my personal experience, I got a free Rock for beating the second bonus ladder and got enough credits for an Undertaker, so I'm all set to get the Cyborg Brock.

The only thing stopping me from getting Cyborg Brock right now is waiting for my teams stamina to refill. Got enough credits to buy Soldier Cena, and even the high tier fights on the very last challenge are just crumbling at the might of my legendary II Bryan.

Now that I have two gold characters, I think the hardest part of the challenge is going to be getting enough gold to get Undertaker and Cena cards.

It seems like random matches in the challenges pay out a bunch of gold, plus you get 15k for beating three of them. If you do silvers, not a hard run.

E: I just beat the challenge and it resets after you beat it with harder enemies. If you beat it again you get another Cyborg Lesnar, plus an uncommon gear. And then it seems like there's another tier even over that. So by the end of this you could have a Legendary II Lesnar. Not bad depending on how hard it gets.

Pro Epic Rock
Pro UR Dean Ambrose

Rock and Ultimate Warrior are definitely high tier, Ambrose is fairly far down the lists as far as I know. Shawn Michaels is almost universally #1 on average.

I see a TON of Pro Epic Rybacks.

Just recently creeped into Legendary tier myself. First Legendary pull was the Heenan manager card, which is amazing. Then I got Cena as my first Legendary wrestler (2nd place in KOTR) and I was conflicted... ha. It's funny, the last two KOTRs I've done are completely dominated by a sandbagging dude in first place. Always has a perfect record and then 2nd place has like 15 losses.

I've been the sandbagger lately. I used to do it anyway, because I'm lazy, but now, if I actually use all my legendary cards, I wind up in Survivor KOTR, which just means I get stomped by Gloryhole cards. I figure I'm better off trying to earn more Legendary pros to have a shot at getting a Survivor card in the next Road to Glory.

I'm almost the exact same situation as you. (Even have the gold Big Show and Trish). I think I'm going to cave and buy a silver Cena/Taker just to make sure I can get at least one Gold Lesnar. The only problem is that it may make the next tiers of the challenge harder(impossible?) if you don't have gold Cena/Taker. Does anyone know if you can get a Cena/Taker card as a reward from any of the single player ladders?

Vince MechMahon
Jan 1, 2008



Yeah, I would either save up for Gold Cena, or hope and pray for him in a booster back. I bought Silver and am regretting it now because it seems like that last tier is going to be nearly impossible without him. I might be able to eek by just because my Gold Bryan might be able to make up for him, but I don't know.

The real problem with the 2nd version of the challenge is the ones that require you use only bronze or bronze and silver guys. Unless you've been leveling your lower tier guys up, and upping them to legendary, it seems like it's going to be nearly impossible to do it. I guess this is why the challenge lasts over a week, to give people a chance to get properly boosted.

I sandbag the poo poo out of KoTR. I quit after getting through the quarter finals though. I don't have the time/energy to farm energy to keep going and I know that my odds of winning the whole thing are poo poo because everyone else in spots 1-4 or 5 are sandbagging too so I take my 1 survivor card and go home. I have enough legendary support cards, I don't need any more.

I've currently got 18 survivor cards with no card to match it up to. It's frustrating as poo poo. If there were a means of getting survivor cards reliably without having to sandbag the hell out of KoTR I would do it, but alas, there isn't. So I'll keep going until I've got a full RTG team of survivor pros.

I'm also leery of the bronze/silver only tier of the challenge. My bronze Bryan, Paige, and Roman are all at least level 20, and I just got a Silver Rock, which I've gotten to level 9, but the CPU opponents tend to be overpowered.

I got gold Undertaker in my last booster pack, so I've got that tier covered. I may save up for a silver Cena, since I already have gold Undertaker and HHH, and I figure they may be enough to carry me through the Cena tier.

I have a level 23 Paige and a level 21 Legendary I Kane, and it's still not enough to get through the second level of the challenge's bronze only ladder.

Gold 'Taker and HHH will definitely get you through the first difficulty level of the challenge, but you might be boned in the same way I am on the 2nd.

Remember that if you beat at least one level of a challenge, you unlock the ability to buy more duplicates to rank up Cyber-Lesnar. As far as I know, you can't get challenge cards from boosters. So make sure you beat at least one level.

It looks like there's a total of 3 levels, each of the ladders are the same in each level, but with higher difficulty opponents. You can get a Gold Brock from each, and then the higher tiers give you gear as well.

Yup. But don't worry, you only need to beat the first one to get the card. Beating the harder ones gets you free duplicates.

once I got into Survivor the game decided to be generous as hell with me. my first two SV board pulls were Erick Rowans and right after the RTG with the Flair SV reward I got a second from the board. that plus the two blue Stings has been good. still refuses to give me Legendary Pros though

Knowing that you can buy future Cyborg Lesnar cards to Legendary him makes the decision easy - I bought silver Taker and will probably just get silver Cena unless he comes in the silver booster from clearing tier 4 then crack the daily 75k booster a few times hoping for Cena and if he doesn't drop in 2-3 days save up and buy gold Cena and hope to get at least a second wave clear by the end.

I'm not too concerned about bronze-only from round 2 since I have a level 26 legendary Bryan, a level 20 Sheamus and a level 15 legendary Paige.

It's a challenge mode that's separate from everything else. It's single player though, not online (in fact you can't even earn the "credits" to do the matches in the challenge in online fights) so not sure why you're not seeing it, unless the devs are just that lovely at rolling stuff out for Android.

pump some money into those L2 signatures, guys, they're worth it.

Also, has anyone pulled a top tier gold character out of a cheaper gold pack, or are they all Big Show/Trish?

What cards you use doesn't make a lot of difference as long as your cards are uniformly low stats - it's just convenient to use uncommons because they drop the most often so getting tag team compatible cards is easier, and pro them because 1) stars are pretty, and 2) they take up like 20 inventory slots during RtG so you might as well store as much xp value in them as you can while you're there, and 3) they show up on the combinables list when they're un-pro'd so you'll accidentally pro them anyway while you're managing your inventory.

The main point of the deck is weak cards + strong managers (and having a 50/50 split of either up/downs or left/rights will help with tag teams)

2x Taker and 2x Trish here. Who would you define as being in the top tier other than Cena? I feel like Bryan belongs there, on account of how brutal his autoattack is - especially when buffed.

My first pull from a cheap pack was Roman Reigns. I don't know how good he compares to the other golds, but his level 2 special is brutal and his basic combo is really good.

His basic combo is in fact really good. He's faster than Trish and way faster than Taker, so my only real options for damaging him are signatures and soaking up one of his combos while blocking and then counterattacking - and even that can be tricky to time.
