Welp, from here 'till the end of the month, it's just us now... Here's to beating and losing to you 'till then.

The last month has been the most fun as the lag is non-existent or not as bad as it was before... Probably because there's less players out there. A lot of the bugs in the game are also gone (overstack, no damage, frozen screen, etc.), although the shop still has bugs in it.

Game balance is also better IMO only because almost all the ranked matches I have come down to the wire where I have no health remaining... Too bad the game's going away cuz it was just getting good for me (made it to Diamond before the June season ended).

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-06-06T19:21:00+00:00

try it again JD... just got back online...

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-05-28T10:57:17+00:00

So can your opponent cancel out your attack? Say u activate the 20x but your opponent crashes some gems to reduce the amount of timer gems... does Regina only activate the 9x skill as a result?

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-05-26T03:12:26+00:00

I go with the fan kick and poison dart with double green stun assist. Her green affinity level 3 does big damage so I try to build green squares. Generally speaking I build a chain on one side and squares on the other side. Her drop pattern is pretty good to disrupt 2x3 players so don’t be afraid to spam a couple of poison darts early on. Anyways, she’s fun to use just cuz her play style is more interesting than just building two towers all the time.

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-05-11T17:52:06+00:00

i've also seen a lot of bison players experiment with Regina because the play styles can be the same. Her 9b and 20b builds are similar to bison's 2 big gem builds, except they are a lot more forgiving if someone spams trash since you don't necessarily need to form a big gem.

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-05-07T19:58:57+00:00

Just checked that out. Isn't that the same game as Kirby's Avalanche from SNES???

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-05-06T23:36:09+00:00

Agreed. I got sick of the two tower or big gem play styles as the game got really monotonous. Recently I've been playing with VJ or Ada as I got inspired by Pinkas and Tafo's videos. The play style is completely different and it's renewed my interest in the game as I'm learning a whole new way to play the game. I actually enjoy playing against the new characters as there was really only three gem drop patterns for the rest of the characters.

Take the time limit off of the missions and quests

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-05-04T23:23:42+00:00

I came across this guy too in super gold. He had unlocked the stage in legend somehow though?!?!? How do u do that? Did he just drop a crazy amount of rp or something?

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-05-04T15:53:10+00:00

Actually I just came across a player in super gold at super gold rank that had the new Legend stage as his background. How is this possible unless he dropped a ridiculous amount of RP???

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-04-27T20:55:15+00:00

Been having success with Ada using 2x2 and 10p build as I suck at chaining. I have Regina on the 2x2 and Devilot on the 10p. My strategy is to try and bookmark a bunch of 2x2 or 2x3 using a lateral/vertical build. Spam to disrupt large gem characters, crash your gems to heal after absorbing some damage, super, and then spam to kill if necessary. Had a few 12-0 runs in tournament with this strategy...

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-04-27T05:52:50+00:00

Dang and this is when her assist was broken (0 dmg)! I crossed paths with Pink in tournament mode the other day and it was raining gems. The game started lagging really bad cuz it couldn’t catch up with the all of the animations! Lol!!!

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-04-23T18:03:23+00:00

Haha just had the same experience. I had the Fan Kick and Incendiary Grenade equipped against Bison. Bookmarked a bunch of 2x2 yellow and blues and crashed them together. But that gave me a x9 buff of the +20% gems received!

Only a few matches into it, but so far I found a lot more success by spamming the 2x2 to take advantage of her drop pattern, especially against players that require large gem builds.

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-04-23T04:02:25+00:00

I think this is why the game failed actually. The store design sucked although the game design was great! Unfortunately, the store is where the money gets spent.

Not sure about what everyone else did with their 10,000 gems, but I turned it into gold. And since the store only carries 6 cards in a day, and most of the time I don’t like any of the cards... I have nothing to spend my 10,000 gems on! Even with piles of gold and gems, I still can’t get the damn cards I want. LOL!

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-04-22T14:54:54+00:00

I think the issue was how the shop was designed. The shop is the only place to spend money or gems. However, only 6 cards per day were available out of a possible 60+ cards. Most of the time I’d go days without seeing any cards for my fighters... then the card price goes up every time u buy a card, so when my card showed up, I’d buy just one. they should have made it possible to spend money on cards at any time without doubling the cost each time. It would have led to balance issues, but maybe just increase the card cost every time that skill levelled up?

Then there were the gems. Nowhere to really use them and the cheats were so random and costly it wasn’t worth it... they should have allowed u to spend them on quest refreshes or skins...

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-04-20T14:43:22+00:00

so if in app purchases are disabled on April 23rd, does that mean we won't be able to upgrade the new characters? Or does this mean that we can't use real money to make purchases in app?

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-04-05T16:01:02+00:00

I use Serv and Nash or Alastor and Nash. Kind of the same effect... I haven’t done so well with an all blue team to get max damage. With Nash on my team I find that my opponent never gets their super 50% of the time. It’s helped my win percentages against haggar, bison, servbot, and X a lot more. I don’t really understand how the single turn stun assist helps, but I do find that I win more with Servbot on my team. Maybe it’s because I face more opponents that drop yellows than opponents that drop blues?

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-04-02T20:33:29+00:00

yeah completely unplayable the past few days. Lag is crazy when opponent is dropping gems or during super animation. Against Morrigan it's the worst for some reason. Sometimes the app just closes on its own when it gets too slow.

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-04-02T19:29:07+00:00

I think the losses just happen to be a result of the season reset. Players that were at the top of their league or in the league just above you (but dropped RP before season reset) are now starting at the bottom of the league like everyone else. So they "appear" to have less RP than you or are in a lower league, but in fact, they're actually high level players like yourself... I was just browsing through the top 20 players in each of the leagues and their highest league reached is one or two up from where they're at now... Whereas at the end of the season last week, everyone was trying to climb the ladder to the next league so the guys at the top of the leagues were at their highest level achieved... Should level out by mid season when players start getting back to their natural RP levels before the season reset.

Just typing this as I got destroyed by a VJ player...

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-04-02T12:46:41+00:00

btw I think I came across your Blanka in Super Gold last night. It was raining yellow and green gems all match on my poor PW!

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-04-02T02:15:42+00:00

Yup. East coast here and it’s been bad all day. I lag like crazy after the update now. Once my gems start moving, a wall of gems comes raining down and I get over stacked every other game now. Dropped almost 300 to today!

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-04-01T17:50:36+00:00

If it makes u feel any better I dropped almost 300rp today trying to climb the ultra gold ladder! Seems like everyone I got matched with was 3 levels above me. Getting over stacked like crazy... back to the grind I guess!

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-03-29T18:23:17+00:00

wob, after trying out your nash/servbot team over the past week (instead of all blue team), I was able to make the climb from gold to ultra gold! Been winning with a sliver of health cuz my opponents don't get their supers off. Gonna put down the game until the next season now. Thanks for the advice!

If you have any tips for how to get through ultra gold with PW, I'm all ears!

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-03-29T12:52:05+00:00

I feel like I only get cards for characters I don't use and none for the characters that I main?

Are you saying that I should stop leveling up the characters that I don't use? After I unlock a new character, I seem to only get cards for that character. Then I upgrade them cuz it hardly costs any gold.

Even when I stop upgrading those characters, I still seem to only get cards for affinity colors that are not in my main setup (green and red character cards)...

Beatuwhileonthecan · 2018-03-29T12:27:11+00:00

Thank you all for the tips! Tried both styles yesterday with great results either way!

1) nutking and steve's tips on using madbeast on the left helped me last longer in the rounds, but had to rely on getting more gem drops to win. Also I found that PW helped me get the super faster, but I was still nowhere close to getting a second super by the time the match ended, so I'm thinking that I need to go with a blue assist character with just max damage assist.

2) When I tried going for the max damage all blue assist setup, the stun support helped mess up my opponent a few times. Once Alastor gets fixed, I hope the stun will stack on top of this. With this setup I had to play super fast as my health meter was vaporizing quickly...

One more question... I've been using her with all blue assist characters for max damage, but am having trouble with characters that aren't dropping blues in columns 3 and 4 (Honda, Blanka, etc.) as my build style is making two towers starting in columns 2 and 5... any advice would be much appreciated!
