How exactly does one book a tournament in TEW? Do you simply keep track on pen & paper or is there some mechanic involved?

You'll have to keep track with your own notes. (In older editions it was done as an 8-person storyline and the game would tell you who should win/lose each match at each stage.)

Finally managed to make the finals of a KOTR. My reward? Two SR Hogans. At least he's almost unbeatable in terms of charisma.

For what it's worth, assuming SR Hogan has the same distribution as Rare Hogan, his other stats are all fairly balanced, too. I recall he has a pretty high toughness once you level him up. Hogans definitely a top-tier card.

My maxed SR Hogan is 171/183/141/202, so he's pretty good for a standard SR.

Yeah, he shot to the top of my list, surpassing my SR Pro Bray Wyatt, but I was hoping for a Diva, so I can finally move up a tier.

Finished my KOTR last night, also won two SR Hogans. Currently my roster is Triple H, Rey, R Truth, Hogan, and Natalya, all Rare Pro. Leveling them up a decent amount got me into the first tier for Ultra Rare, which got me an Ultra Rare Swagger on my first board. So, after I get all my current Rare Pros to max level, gotta work on leveling/combining those SR Hogans and then leveling UR Swagger.

I am addicted to this game.

Why doesn't it have CM Punk :(

What smashpro1 is trying to say is when you combine 2 of the same card, ideally you want them to both be fully trained first, so you get the maximum stats in your new, trainable pro card.

Three questions:

1. How do I get super rare and above? I somehow managed to get a SR Hogan but other than that I've never manged to get more than a rare.
2. What determines if I get the stat bonus from tag team compatibility or a card's special ability? As far as I can tell it seems random.
3. Apparently there are people who have their champion set to something other than Uncommon Bo Dallas? Why?

Tag team compatibility has to do with the diamond on each card. You get the bonus if they are opposites (for instance < and >), you get no bonus or penalty if they are identical (< and <), and you get a penalty if they are 90 degrees from each other (< and ^)

How do the inherent abilities that sine characters have work? My SR Vince will sometimes get a +11 charisma and toughness boost, but not always.

Got a second purple Edge to go with the one I already have, it's about to get disgustingly good. That and the fully trained SR Pro Andre are the cornerstones of my deck right now.

Would a fully trained Pro Rare card be better than a fully trained regular SR card? I need to know for my divas.

Except in very rare cases, yes. My Perfect Pro rare AJ always beats regular SR divas (before support cards or boosts).

According to the Supercard FAQ:

quote:

Q: What triggers my Superstar's abilities?

Abilities are triggered randomly when the Superstar is played. The chance for the ability to trigger is based on the rarity of the Superstar. Here's the current trigger percentages:

Uncommon - 15%
Rare - 17.5%
Super Rare - 20%
Ultra Rare - 25%
Epic - 30%
Legendary - 33%

Starting a King of the Ring and going to bed is fine, so long as you know you'll be around in ~45 hours and be able to pop in for a second the 6 hours after that to set your team for the tournament matches.

Ugh, I hosed up. Got my SR Pro Hogan and SR Pro Vince maxed, then I was gonna start leveling up my Ezekiel Jackson pair (which is one of the higher rated SR cards for some reason) and instead I accidentally combined my level 0 Jacksons. Ugh. I like keeping all my cards of the same triangle color to make it more versatile (two lefts and two rights or two ups and two downs).

Oh well. I've got an SR pair of Batista and Brock so maybe I'll go all yellows with Batista, Brock, Big Show, and Swagger.

This game is controlling my life.

There's definitely a hidden rarity value somewhere. I have 4 SR Andres, Vinces & batista's and 3 big shows out of about a dozen unique SRs

Can't wait for the semis/finals of my KOTR to conclude, should be taking another UR pair and just in time as I've completely run out of things to train. I'm at the point where I max pro'd a SR del rio just to warm the bench on KOTR, now I'm stockpiling pro uncommons/rares while keeping myself just below the max card limit.

Have people hacked this game, or are there legitimately a lot of people who are in Epic tier with only like 20 matches played?

I see them all the time, they must have either spent a ton of money on Legendary cards or hacked the game.
