Everyone on Supercard has pretty much figured out the whole "punt half of your cards so that you can have just enough cards of super high level to win" which makes playing rather frustrating. Off the top of my head, I can't think of a solution, but something really needs to be done about it. It's stupid going against 3 epic pros with a team of UR Pros.

the quickest way would probably be to implement getting 3 cards for winning 3-0, theoretically leading to full decks being played in order to get that extra card

Yeah, all of them are available as randoms as far as I know. I've already seen people with Miz and Ziggler cards.

Yeah I got a SR Stardust on a board pick which just leaves me nicely treading water in the Peoples Champ event to get another one or a pair so I can sacrifice one.

The Epic Pro Stone Cold I have where I hosed up and accidentally combined it before fully maxing one of the cards (level 30 instead of 35) HAUNTS ME. It's still my most powerful card but I kind of want to feed it to someone just to get it off my collection. As soon as I have 4 Epic Pros, it's getting trashed.

Is a duplicate UR so much to ask? :argh:

I can't improve my deck until I get a double. I've got seven unleveled URs that are just sitting there, taunting me, because my pro SRs are better.

I'm in the same boat. I've got 5 URs and none of them I can make Pro. I wish they dropped a little more often than they do. I'm in the epic tier now and still get Rares on the reg.

Getting to Epic KotR is the best thing because it means you put forth zero effort and still get a UR. I did have a UR pro (which wasn't even maxed) and my free epic (also not even close to maxed) to get there but it was mostly SR and even Rare pros.

e: To give a baseline, I think my lineup was pro SR Ambrose, Pro ladder SR Cena, Pro UR Macho Man, Epic Rock, Pro ladder SR Paige, UR AJ (unmaxed), UR Hogan (maxed), Pro Rare Wyatt, Rock, and HBK.

One time a guy stole some downhill skis out of my jeep and I was so mad I punched a mailbox. I'm against crime, and I'm not ashamed to admit it.
I just cracked Epic KOTR and it's good to know I get a UR with no effort. I still don't think my team is powerful enough to get to the final 8 at this time though.

So, my new favorite thing about PCC is that I have decided that there is NO WAY I am going to get an upgrade from it (I need top 2000 to get an epic pair), it makes it really easy to farm wins/energy cards cause I'll just pick the 1 point matches in PCC.

I actually had a pretty easy time making the top 3000 first PCC, but it seems like there is WAY more competition this time around.

I always have issues discerning between Epics and Legendaries just based on color.

I'm glad you did qualify after all; once I realized who you were I tried to help by putting in my B team against you and my A team against the dude who was in 8th.

Yeah I think I finished in a 3 way tie for 8th or something, wasn't expecting to make it, and wasn't paying as much attention to the group stage until the end when it started to look like I might make it anyway.


Now to try and calculate if splitting my tag pair is worth losing the pair bonus to increase my chances in 2 singles because they're slightly better than my singles in game 3.


E: made it, woo.

well, 107 points gets you around 24k. Not good enough.

I vaguely feel that I could have done better here, it doesn't look like 20k was an unreachable thing, but didn't get any time to grind it out today and spent the last hour getting back to 24k from 32k.

Back to cheesing UR KOTR I guess, because a team full of UR Pros doesn't win you poo poo in Epic KOTR when people cheese it using a two legendary setup.

With that kind of setup, do you just take auto-losses occasionally during prelim rounds, or do you try to farm enough energy to recharge your whole team every few rounds?

This is the first time I've done this, but I've been refilling my energy at an average rate. I'm Undertakering it right now (21-1). I checked out the guy who beat me and he had two Epic Pros and a Legendary Pro so yeah, he's gonna take first place.

Cool stuff. In UR tier, I'm cruising to my second easy 1st place by just packing a common tag team in my bench, which lets me cruise to easy wins against poeple who are doing well, and then recharge my A-team with a 2-1 win against guys with lovely records and empty stamina bars. Right now I'm 29-3 (all losses happened while I was asleep), and the next closest guys are 22-10. Once I have enough of a buffer that I'm guaranteed 1st seed, I'll swap in my B-team for the rest of the rounds to ensure my A-team has plenty of rest and also to gently caress with rankings by giving out free wins to the undeserving.

it doesn't have to be in your deck, and it also becomes a card you cannot use to train other cards. I'm in Epic tier but my champ is still...Perfect :smug:
