WWE SuperCard! v4

[starvenger]

It's the old issue of having a mix of people who can make Ultimate tier but drop down mixed with people that are trying to move up. And given the troubles I'm having getting traction in UL, I can't exactly say that I blame people that drop down.

 

[Baby Shoes]

I get that to an extent but some of these people have decks where Elite pros do nothing. I've had some people who have either Event pros, Ultimate pros or top ranked Elite in every spot outside the spot they are sandbagging - so at that point, is it to brag about a win? I rather struggle in Ultimate than win something that is meaningless to me

 

[fazzle]

I almost always move up in KOTRs ASAP. Speaking of which, I finished 27-18 in mine, which is good for a FIVE way tie for fifth. Meaning someone who finished 9 games over .500 is gonna miss the brackets. Gonna be so mad if it's me.

Meanwhile, I hit my 10 point wall 35 points into Mankind. Hopefully I can get a few 3s/6s(almost out of TMs) before dropping to 1s

 

[fazzle]

.....and I was the one to miss top 8. AW COME ON!

Got HR Sami and SS Dolph. Weeee

 

[Baby Shoes]

That sucks.

My reward was an HR Xavier - solo probably not good enough for my deck.

Just pro'd TJP and threw him in unleveled. Threw the unleveled EL AJ and HR Joe in as a team too. Why not?

 

[fazzle]

Just got my Ultimate pull after 273 resets, Sheamus. Only a solo and on the weaker side of the tier, I think, but at least it's not a support.

Also just hit my 3 point wall, 221 points into Mankind. So I'm glad that I won't have to grind for long

 

[Baby Shoes]

Not a support and to me, Sheamus seems like a guy who is likely to be put in an event, so maybe that can happen sooner rather than later.

New KOTR brackets are interesting. I was undefeated when I went to bed, lost 3 while I slept, though had I woken up a little earlier I definitely would've won the last matchup. About 60 points from Anderson but while bouts refilling have been catching up on MITB free games at 17640 for Charlotte #2.

I've also continued to sporadically do Royal Rumble matches. The gameplay is different enough to break some of the monotony and the 12 picks help at clearing the board.

 

[starvenger]

Yeah I like that you can bank the picks and use them in RTG to help fish for doublers.

Hit the 5pt wall 75 into Anderson. At 189 now on 3s but unlikely that I will push for Mankind.

 

[fazzle]

Finished Mankind a few hours ago, so that'll be my first event pro! Still fishing for my first regular Ult pro, but maybe Mankind will push me into Ult++ to make it a bit easier.

 

[fazzle]

Just pulled EL Jericho off the board, making my 13th EL pro! I might not be able to make an Ult pro, but I sure can't complain about my EL luck

 

[BlackFlagg]

Only made it to Joe, only got to around 100 points on 3's then had to drop to 1's, did pull a SS Balor off the board along the way and that makes a pro which still helps at this point.

 

[Baby Shoes]

EL Jericho hsould be a pretty good one. Hopefully you will just get that first Ultimate and start the windfall.

That Balor SS is a good one too, Cletus. I just had to feed mine to a S3 card and was a little sad.

Got that huge TJP pull on the first night to work toward the Ultimate pro which is very nice in my deck and a HR Lana the next morning but no S3 pulls since. Gotten a few SS pulls the past few days to make catalog pros and good feeder.

163 points into Mankind so a few more purchased bouts and doublers it shouldn't be crazy to pro Mankind.

Currently sitting at the 2 seed in my EL KOTR. More confident in this one than the last few where I knew I'd be a first round out when I was even finishing in the 2/3 seed. I only haven't been able to beat the 1st place team and even that is almost luck of draw. Hoping I can get to finals and get new Elite, as I feel it is overdue to get at least an Elite card at this point seeing I've been at least pulling one every few days and haven't since around Wednesday, I think.

 

[BlackFlagg]

Looking at my MITB contracts I should manage to get enough for a single Ult Charlotte, tough to decide if I wanna grab that or hold onto em for a pro in the next batch...I know overall the pro will help more, but even a single Charlotte would be a big upgrade for me diva wise as right now my two main ones are a single Hardened Charlotte and my MITB WM Becky pro.

 

[Baby Shoes]

13 points til Mankind, so hoping I can wrap it up before the game starts. Still surprised I haven't gotten a Season 3 pull with how many 2 point games I've been grinding. Best pull past little stretch has been getting a SS AJ now. So, catalog pro and feeder.

Locked the 2 seed for my KOTR but noticed one of the people tied for 6/7 is a sandbagger that has a pro Charlotte and pro MITB Goldberg... ugh... I have him in Game 45 so I will try to lose to him so he gets six seed. Guess I am still going to be stuck playing him before finals though...

 

[Baby Shoes]

Got Mankind with a few hours to spare. Was able to get him pro'd watching Super Bow and farming for energy for my current KOTR. He's sitting at 0/50 until I start my next KOTR. Then I think I am going to feed my first S3 Pro Cedric Alexander to him, as I already fed my Apollo to the TJP pro.

Currently tied 1-1 in the semis. The guy I am playing is one of the two guys that were active in chat the whole time. I beat him all three times in the regular games and he was talking about it during the qualifiers. He took Game 1. A little unsure because no matter combination, any divas match from him beats me. He has MITB Pro Charlotte paired with Ultimate Becky and an Elite Pro Nikki. Regular cards he is carrying Elite Pros of KO, Aries and Itami with tags being an Uncommon Fusion team and singles Ultimates of Baron Corbin/Karl Anderson.

Hoping this falls my way. Really have had zero pull luck since getting that awesome TJP pull. As I said, I got a Hardened Lana but for the amount of playing and resets I've had, to not get anything above SS in the last ~60 hours seems crazy. Thinking I may get my next Ultimate reset before even a random Elite at this point.

 

[Baby Shoes]

Lost 3-2 in the final on bad AI pull

Game 1 his Aries ELP (with EL Ambust0 beat my Orton ELP (with HR Lana) in TGH/CHA

Game 2 my ELP Bo/Ultimate Orton (with SS Vince) beat his Common Fusion Miz/Piper (w/ EL Heenan)

Game 3 his ELP Bikki beat my MITB single Charlotte

Game 4 my ULP TJP beat his ELP Itami

Game 5 they called my sandbag team of EL AJ/HR Joe that lost to his Ultimate Corbin/Ultimate Anderson

Exactly why I never do this shit... had they called the tag the other way I'd be getting an Elite tonight... And of course after I see I got boned going to the finals, my board resets with a SR Seth. If one of these two HR are not a Diva that pros, they are entirely useless at this point... Can't believe how I have had no decent pulls in so long...

 

[Baby Shoes]

Rewards were Jason Jordan, which makes a pro that I am unsure will make my deck (HRP Kofi is currently in the 16 spot for RTG) and Liv Morgan, which is a diva but a solo.

Loaded up my cards for next event and with Mankind, I am automatically in Ultimate KOTR.

I am running Ultimate Pro TJP, Ultimate Pro Mankind, Elite Pro Orton with MITB solo Charlotte for solos - teams are Elite Pro Bo with Ultimate solo Orton, Elite Pro Goldust with Ultimate solo Karl Anderson and HR Pro Carmella with Ultimate solo Asuka. Getting in brackets and getting an Elite is nice enough for me right now.

 

[fazzle]

I at least got back into the top 8 for my latest KOTR. Got eliminated in the quarters, hopefully the Mankind pro will give me a boost in my new KOTR.

I got Xavier as my reward, just a solo

 

[starvenger]

so team RD is showing KO as the top prize, which suits me just fine as that makes a pro. Should get MITB charlotte as well today.

 

[Baby Shoes]

Yeah, my team is still not good enough to play for Ultimate... The Elite card is a Smackdown card.

 

[BlackFlagg]

Yeah my teams only high enough for the hardened, looks like it's a Raw card.

 

[JHawk]

So Royal Rumble matchups are completely random with no regard to ranking?

My WrestleMania++ deck probably shouldn't be running into fully built Ultimate cards.

 

[Baby Shoes]

I ran into a ranking issue once when the mode first started, which worked in my favor. The problem with how it works now is someone who has one Ultimate card and not much else could still face you if their deck is so imbalanced and could basically use the one card to win almost the whole thing. I haven't played with my deck to see but sure there are people out there doing that for "easy wins"

Looked at my inventory and have the following Elite Smackdown that have not been part of events before (that I know of) - Cena, Ziggler, Bray and Miz. I know Bray was MITB before but hoping maybe they use Cena, Miz or Ziggler. Have Jimmy Uso, AJ Styles and Swagger too but got those from event. Also would prefer a new solo over Orton, who may have a decent chance being he is currently pushed and a mid-range card but I already have pro of him.

 

[starvenger]

I would agree with that. When I got my MITB Goldberg proed I was running the table with him and a bunch of HD pros/Elite singles for a while. But now I'm at 17,000 points and my deck has started to catch up with that card, and the matches are harder... when I don't face a bot. Bots offer almost no resistance, and I seem to draw them quite often.

I play RR with a balanced 4-4-4-3 (LRDU) deck and I stick my best cards (of that direction) in there, but realistically I try to play primarily with my EL pros (Brock, KO, Orton, AA and AJ) and save Goldberg as my pocket ace for Match 10 or later.

And speaking of RR I just pulled EL Woods during my last game which will make another pro.

 

[BlackFlagg]

Finished my first SS fusion since returning and got my second Bo card.

 

[Baby Shoes]

Reddit saying Elite Bray and Hardened Sami, both pros for me

 

[Baby Shoes]

I mentioned I hadn't pulled an Elite since getting the TJP Thursday night during RTG and only a HR support. Taking forever to clear board in Team RTG and my first shard was next Ultimate pull, Ultimate Baron Corbin!

People think the Event card is Randy Orton this week because he was up briefly before KO and that happened the week Alexa was the event card.

 

[starvenger]

Wyatt pros for me as well.

 

[fazzle]

So...I took full advantage of the TRD glitch before they fixed it, and got 10 Ultimate cards, including 3 pros in Joe, Gallows and Anderson.

Yeah, it's cheap, but hey, I'll take it.

 

[starvenger]

Yeah, I'm upset that I wasn't able to exploit it in time.
