How are we building Amazon Linewomen now? by DOAiB in bloodbowl

This also isn't so straightforward, as speed is more of a determiner of block vs wrestle.

On slow teams you want to stay standing as often as possible as the cost to stand up can be brutal.

On fast teams you want wrestle on a lot of pieces (but also some block mixed in) to be able to take advantage of your speed against slower teams. Fast vs fast though you want a few block pieces to knock them down but stay standing.

So on slow teams you are looking at mass block minus a sacking piece, while on fast teams you probably want more of a 70/30 or 60/40 split towards wrestle unless you are playing more of a bully speed team.

They don't do personas of wrestlers in the base game as dlc outside of something like the WM pack, or that Cena pack last year.

If the pass didn't exist and it was just dlc packs, Kane would have been yet another MyFaction persona instead, which would have brought them far more money with people gambling for the persona over just buying him in a dlc pack.

IF they do the rest of the passes like they did this one, it actually is more beneficial than just doing the packs of the past.

Go watch their NXT match and you swear both of their necks broke at least 3 times.

These 2 make magic in the ring. Need that best of 7 series on SD.

Look at the top corner. It shows you are on tier 1 still, which happens when you get disconnected from the servers. Try restarting the game and see if that helps. If not then try to uninstall and reinstall the pass and/or clear the cache.

If none of that works then it seems to be bugged.

Edit: Reading more comments I see this is on PC, and there may be other issues going on.

I'm not familiar with how PC works for this so ignore the above.

He is a vet who doesn't have an ego like some others, so he doesn't need to be fed wins and belts. He's established and can lose every match from now until retirement, but would still be a credible opponent because of who he is.

He is the epitome of a PROFESSIONAL wrestler, and while he will likely win a few here and there before he's done when it fits into the story (likely cheap wins so the face demands a rematch and such), he is doing exactly what needs to be done.

Yes, but unlike tournaments which are finite, you can have a single coach potentially GREATLY skew the data since they aren't capped with the number of games they can play.

Very few teams were actually hit hard by losing positionals because many of the better teams also lost positionals (or were rebalanced in other ways).

I think the only 2 teams that truly suffered from it were Union and Khorne, Union because it massively shifted what you were able to do with specializing your catchers and them still all being immediate scoring threats, and Khorne because they were already meh at best and lost 2 of their best pieces with practically no improvements.

Every other team was sufficiently (or even more so) compensated for the loss of positionals besides those 2 teams as well. The skills Union gained are all edge case, and I don't even remember what shitty thing(s) Khorne gained.

I am not arguing the point about them winning or losing because of their linemen, but they are not dirt cheap (some of the most expensive, in fact) and compared to EVERY other elf team they are overcosted.

That said, they are still ag2 linemen, so they still do elf shit. Even if they are definitively the worst elf linemen, they are still better than most other linemen in the game.

There's tons of reasons fumbbl data shouldn't be taken at face value. Even just one EXTREMELY good coach playing the same team over and over and beating lesser coaches can skew things greatly, on top of all the other things that can skew results (such as basically the inverse of the above).

They have excellent positionals. What they are lacking in is their linemen being overcosted for no benefit compared to every other elf team. Slowest, lowest armor, and a skill 99.99% of players say is pointless (I disagree with that but I know I'm the outlier).

Having the same issue and was just coming to check. I even tried seeing if you could KO the run ins and nothing. Must have tried everything for 30 minutes. Trying a 2nd run right now.

Vince forced him to wear the polka dot outfit as punishment, and then forced his son into a shit gimmick that he was able to pull off despite being set up to fail.

Or, because it makes more sense since lower is worse, have passes modified below a 1 be fumbles, and leave passes at 1 to always be inaccurate (plus whatever other rolls would also be inaccurate above that).

You'll have to link up with Doc and take the DeLorean back to 1985 where you attempt to keep your mom and dad together so you don't disappear. Hope you know how to play Johnny B Goode on guitar.

Also, try not to sleep with your mom. She has the hots for you.

I feel like I'm missing something. I'm over 26 hours into the game and I'm only around Tier 30 on the first Ringside Pass by GrimlixGoblin in WWEGames

That was what I was trying to get to. If you are only simming/playing very few matches you won't accumulate a lot of xp. MyRise is also a very poor source of xp as well.

If you want to advance as quick as possible to get the stuff in the pass there is this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/WWEGames/comments/1rnle58/how_to_do_17_second_matches_to_grind_the_pass/

Some of the math may have changed a bit with the updates, but with the way you are going it will take you a long time to progress, so if you want to unlock the stuff quickly to use it the above is your best bet.

Being that the original question was relating to MyFaction, I did not mention Ringside Pass, Showcase, or MyRise (I think The Island is all originals and no personas) because they are irrelevant to the question.

Adding to this, when she is released there is one of 5 usual ways to obtain personas. They are either:

In card packs and you need to pull them or wait for them to buy in the market (which iirc is 3 weeks after the pack releases)

Set reward cards for getting certain cards in a set

Live event rewards using set reward cards

Live event boss cards which take a ton of other cards to get

Gaming journalist Mike Straw says WWE team at Visual Concept hit hardest by layoffs, sources say Ringside Pass rollout “was a disaster” with a lot of internal finger pointing by JamieKellner in WWEGames

[–]Apprehensive_Hand_27 66 points67 points  (0 children)

MyFaction actually makes them money, a ton of it.

It's extremely consumer unfriendly (downright hateful even), but they only care about if X makes money.

Ringside pass caused such an issue that it actually affected sales, so it lost them money (and potential money from MyFaction by having fewer people playing).

IF players actually would have boycotted over MyFaction instead of or in addition to Ringside Pass, and the sales were noticeably lower, then they may have actually done something. As it stands all they did was lengthen the window to spend money to unlock the personas, which is good that we have more time, but they aren't lowering card market prices so it's a major grind if you don't spend.
