I got a pair of Lgendary Kanes from my KotR last night. Found out he's one of the lowest stat totals in that tier
Even Erick Rowan beats him by like 200 points.RandyBobandy

Three matches in the KOTR quarters end 2-0 so of course the last one has to be 1-1!

So are you basically putting commons JUST in the tag slots?

I'm assuming 2-3 commons in the bench as well, and he's swapping out the rest of his main team every match so they're always at full stamina.

Well you need the second diva if you don't want to deal with the whole energy thing.
Yeah, 5 commons, 4 pro super rares and a pro rare diva. Not sure why I'm even bothering as I don't need any more pro SR's!

I just tried to join a KOTR and it suddenly ended. Looking at it, there's a bunch of temp icons and strings. Trying to click Claim Rewards to get out of it and start a new one does nothing but hang on Waiting on Network. Am I boned?
EDIT: Backing out completely to the title screen and logging back in seems to have fixed things. Weird.

It's going really slow at the moment for me. Had to wait 30 seconds for boosts to activate.

I managed to switch to my bench with 8 matches to go. I'll end up finishing with 9 losses with #2 currently sitting at 10 losses. I'm really hoping for a good epic this time. Kane is just so terrible. I don't know why my left-aligned wrestlers are always my worst.
Edit: Is there anything worse than facing a team that's clearly been bought without understanding how max pros work? I just saw a fully leveled pro legendary lesnar with all stats lower than 900.

Epic Savage is one of the best apparently. I have one epic savage but not a pair, sadly. I have only gotten 3 non-forced cards in exhibition better than SR. 2 were UR Batistas (which came way after he was helpful) and one was Second Wind after I'd already one a UR Second Wind in KotR. Has anybody won an epic or legendary in exhibition other than the mandatory one?

Wow an epic second wind is pretty lucky. Is that +21 all?
ratcliffja

I'm sure. My UR second wind is super useful.
ratcliffja

He's boring, but his toughness is insane so he's definitely useful.
Well I've got a decent mix for exhibition now. Legendary HHH for power, Epic Pro Big Show for toughness, UR Pro Rey for speed (for now) and Epic Pro Savage for charisma with Epic Pro Steph in the diva slot. Fun times.

So I got a super rare card in an ultra rare+ kotr. Wtf?

If you didn't finish in the top 8 and make the brackets, you will get a random card of the tier lower than the one you started.
Edit: go to King of the Ring Rewards to get the specific card reward breakdown.

KOTR basically combines the tiers I think. UR would be the bottom third of the bar, UR+ the middle third, UR++ the top third.
Yeah, make sure you're not actually in SR KOTR. It took me a while longer to break into UR KOTR even after making UR+ in exhibition mode (due to my bench).
XiaNaphryz

I didn't reach UR KOTR until my Exhibition deck hit UR++

Just won KotR again and got epic Rey. That's a pretty good result I think. I'll finally have some ridiculous speed.

It makes me sad when I see that someone has completely wasted their cards. Those should've been mine! They would've been in good hands.
I haven't pulled another legendary yet but I did pull an epic Daniel Bryan to go with the original I got.
Half-way through this KotR and I used 6 Energy Cards so far. Hope to do the rest of it in a similar way. I like how you often face the negative records all at once, so by using the tag team slot I can recover a fair bit of Energy there.
Not sure if I can actually win this one though. And I'll need enough picks for the bracket phase. It often takes me alot of picks to get that 5/5 Energy, really unlucky.

And yet when you have 5/5 it seems to be every other card :/
Pro UR Rick Rude is kind of disappointing.
XiaNaphryz
LATIN, MATRIPEDICABUS, DO YOU SPEAK IT
Sounds about right.
That's why he said average. I've had 5 energy drawn within 10 picks before when I was empty. I've also had a span where it took 100 picks to fill out. More often than not though, it's around 60-70.
ratcliffja
Member
Yeah I've gone well over 100 picks without getting 5, but I agree that the average is about 60-70.
Edit: Looking at this spreadsheet, my 3 pro epics so far are all over the map. Kane is the third worst non-diva (assuming Flair and Bryan are higher, which they almost certainly are), Booker T is right at average, and Rey is near the top. It's funny that in the late 90s or early 2000s, I never would have thought a wrestling game would have Rey Misterio, Jr. ranked near the top and Kane near the bottom. I'm glad to see it that way, though.
Second edit: speaking of pick averages, I just went over 60 picks without a single energy card right after I used all mine. Go figure.
Without support cards, she doesn't lose. She does draw with AJ and Steph on charisma and I think Natalya on power, but she's invincible.

She can be beaten with move procs too, though. Still, I'm pretty jealous.

Is your deck all Pro Epics/Legendaries?
I'm finding the gap between UR and Epic/Legendary is pretty steep, especially for KOTR. I was in an EPIC KOTR earlier this week and couldn't complete with the people using Pro Epics or random Legendaries. Still having a Rare Pro Eva Marie isn't helping!

It is now. Before I was using a Pro SR Nikki Bella.

I plan on grinding out UR KOTRs until I get a full max pro UR team before moving up to Epic. Only have 1 max pro UR right now and the 1 Epic pull I got for reaching the tier.

Yeah, that's what I'm currently doing. My deck right now is max Pro UR Hogan/Warrior/JBL. Currently the #1 seed in a new UR KOTR where I'll get my 4th UR pair.
Doing the common bench strategy for UR is ridiculously easy. I imagine it'll be tougher to do this on the later levels, though.
The common tag team method I posted about yesterday is killing it in KOTR:
Even managed to put my full team in last night before bed and slept right through without them losing a match. Feels ridiculously overpowered!
Also helps that I started the KOTR with 3 level 0 pro SR's and a level 0 pro rare Eva Marie. As soon as the tournament started I fed all my max pro rares to the SR's, instantly taking each of them to level 22. Since your initially matched with people in a similar level range I instantly became stronger than everyone else and the whole thing has been trivial ever since

It's really stupid, but my Rey just got 999 speed after the tag bonus and I couldn't help but see it as a subliminal message.
I'm in the most awesome bracket ever. I am up against the #4 because we shared that spot. The #1 is up there aswell, both me and the #4 were in the first spot for a long time at the start of the tournament.
I am already down 1 round but I am quite certain I can beat the guy because he's using a Pro Rare Diva.
Made some changes that I'd be surprised he is prepared for, we'll see. The #1 is a scrub so I'll go all out with my boosts from the start on out.

What is this? (I'm on iOS)
I was just going to post about whether there is an easier way to level up the Ultra Rares I'm getting from winning my KotRs - I'm running out of lower tier pro cards I can feed to them, and I really don't want to start grinding unless it's just to get a couple energy cards to refresh my KotR team.
It's a Android emulator. But you can login on the same account if you use the Facebook option in your iOS game, you get the same data on Android.
Leveling is always a struggle. I usually just drop all the common/uncommons on a Rare ahead of actually getting upgrade cards, but yeah its time consuming and no way to make it any faster.
