I think the "premium boxes" are not much faster. Each tier of box is like 10+ min/max over the previous tier. I never saw anything higher than the 12 hour box. Player level limits the level of your enhanced skills.

hopefully there'll some rankless mode that will be implented in the future because even if you wanna get off the beaten path you're just gonna have to have goldar and xandred at your back. The matches are laggy more often than not and your gonna have to abuse them cause literally everyone else up here is. There are some people who will put like zhane there instead of goldar. those people never beat me. It's pretty much bottle necked between OG Jason and movie zack right now. I'm sure OG zack will be great when he levels but for christ sake, I just pumped up my jason with orbs and now and his breaker does 301 loving damage. And sometimes he draws two in a row and they combo, like I'd be pants on head stupid not to be using him. and everyone else with jasons are running around with comparable damage. I really don't care about ranking in fighting games but its tied to getting stuff so I pretty much have to roll this team to keep my head above water, as much as i'd like to experiment with gia or OG zack. It's actually pretty poo poo.

Xandred and Goldar are pretty crucial it's true. I just had a pretty great run from 1650 to close to 2k just now with M.Zack. Not too many Jasons so far. In the last fight as I was about to beat another Jason I had network connection issue and am stuck waiting on the title screen waiting for the previous match to end. The hell is that?

Well, shit.
I really really want to love this game, the fighting system is super fun. Unfortunately the slightest bit of lag turns it into an unplayably glitchy mess. Strikes bypassing blocks, being hit from half a screen away, etc. Hopefully they can tighten up the net-code.

I also just had a match where I beat the opponent, had the ending cutscene, then it went back to the arena with him at zero health for a while (I could still move and attack) before ending in a draw. Is this connection related as well or is there some kind of hack out there?

I haven't had too much trouble with lag, but the big thing for me is the fact that it's swipe to move, and I can't get it to register when I need it all the time. :( Some people just dash ALL the time and I'm like... how the hell are you getting it to keep registering!

The dash battles where people just try to corner you get really annoying though. I get it, you want to assert dominance and put me into the corner for more combos, but I'm not going to just sit here and let you dash into me over and over, instead you can eat a unblockable kick to the face. -_-

The people who are at least decent though can dodge backwards at the last second to make it miss. :sigh:

Just wait til you hit around 2300+ The Jason movie zack gangbang brigade is waiting for you up here. I'm might drop out soon since persona 5 is coming out plus KOF is literally putting my some of my favorite characters in as dlc. The battle system is really good. I'm not sure what they can do about character balance what with all these power up gems and stuff.

There is an open spot for new people wanting to join. Just never spend those purple beakers. A couple dozen will pay for a high level character upgrade or part of the rarer characters. Donate all your shards for money and XP. I doubt you will ever get enough for premium boxes without becoming a whale.

I can't get to the 5th tier for some loving reason. I'm using Koda as my primary, with OG Trini and Xandred. I really don't want to have to go the Jason route, but I know I'm close, so I might have to dust him off and cheese it to the top. Its just so satisfying picking lesser Jason players apart with Koda.. My other primary phone game has been busy as gently caress lately so I can't dedicate a lot of time to this right now, but I'll win right up to the edge of 2500 and get beaten back to 2400ish and start the climb over again.

This. The combat mechanics are fun enough that I'm having a blast climbing League 3 with my derpwaifu. I hope they do a balance pass soon but picking apart lovely Jasons and M. Zacks is incredibly satisfying.

I finally hit rank 5. I had to resort to using Jason. He's so much better that it's not even fair. Balance is my biggest issue with the game right now. A Common should not mop the floor with an Epic. I'm not saying that Common shouldn't have a chance against, but Jason is just so insanely quick and powerful that it doesn't make sense.

same but in reverse

it is mostly luck who you get matched up with, i hit 2500 off the backs of really, really bad jasons who thought they could spam their sword breaker

also having a level 7 og trina assist does wonders tbh, she hits for almost 250 if all her hits connect which, lol

I've actually been doing a lot better since I switched back to movie Zack. He feels like the hard counter to Jason.

OG Tommy with OG Zack and Movie Zack feels like a hard counter to everybody in tier 4 at least. So many people are super reliant on blocks.

Hit league V with the OP team. Took way longer than it should've thanks to dumb moments and lag and bugs. Game needs more work but is fun. Movie Zack is the most annoying character in a game and only with him do I not like how defending works. Yes I know what a turtle character is but he takes it to a new level. He does counter Jason hard tho, takes alot for me to beat them.

Grow up.
This game is pretty unplayable with lag, and usually in games it seems like I'm the only one lagging. The enemy is chain rolling and queueing up attacks and I have to wait 2 seconds before every action. Is this the same for most people or am I just really unlucky?
