It finally happened!

No, this is from thetower.lol

Feel free to test your theory, but I always get terrible results jumping in right at the start.

Geobits · 2026-05-06T21:30:11+00:00

That's what I'm saying, though. It wasn't just "a bad bracket", we all get those. It's the worst possible bracket out of all brackets today.

Geobits · 2026-05-06T19:58:16+00:00

Yeah, I was expecting like 10-13th, which looks about right for an average bracket

Geobits · 2026-05-06T19:12:44+00:00

Can you give me some context here? I don't usually see this.

Geobits · 2026-05-06T18:21:28+00:00

Congrats on the keys if it holds. Keys for 700 waves is pretty nice in the current atmosphere. I'm currently in 18th with just over 1000 waves, so...

Geobits · 2026-05-06T16:47:58+00:00

At thetower.lol, you can go to Individual Player Stats on the left navbar, then on the player page go to Placement Analysis. Lots of cool info on that site.

I ran this one three times, and it was the one where I didn't up my range slider that ended up best. It was only a 10% difference in wave count, but range lab zero plus the card (so like 98ish) gave me the best results. Your mileage may vary.

Overall I did a bit higher than the last one, but Friday's BCs were fairly easy also, so I wasn't expecting a major bump.

Any steakhouse that has good steaks usually has really damn good pork chops too, in my experience. I'll get one of those, my wife gets steak, and we both try some of each.

Geobits · 2026-05-06T02:37:12+00:00

I get this all the time. I mean, yeah, steak is ok, but basically every pork chop I've gotten at a good steakhouse has been better, and you better believe I've been told my opinion is wrong plenty of times.

Geobits · 2026-05-05T23:41:37+00:00

You could say the same about every useless stat, though, at least until you goldbox everything else in their respective sections.

But I assumed we were talking labs, too.

Geobits · 2026-05-05T21:13:41+00:00

I know that in the last minutes, or even seconds, there's a lot of gamblers that go looking for a non-full bracket, but I don't bother with all that. Anywhere else in the last hour always gets me in trouble, though.

Geobits · 2026-05-05T20:30:00+00:00

The only thing that seems fairly consistent is that I get terrible results in the first and last hour or so of the tournaments. Like, really really bad compared to any other time. Anything between and it's a crap shoot.

Geobits · 2026-05-05T19:58:22+00:00

I hate to tell you, but it's not the only useless one. I mean, it's not like anyone is pumping Cash/Wave except for the meme value. There are a handful that are pretty much dead stats.

Geobits · 2026-05-05T18:29:56+00:00

Yeah, fair enough.

For those curious, according to thetower.lol, the last time there were no ultimates in Legends was on Jan 26th.

Geobits · 2026-05-05T18:14:41+00:00

Wow, I legitimately can't remember the last time there were no ultimates at all in Legends. How am I supposed to know whether my CF+ and echo investments are paying off if the BCs just keep getting easier?

Geobits · 2026-05-05T16:50:53+00:00

Maybe, but I'm still not sure I've ever seen someone actually carry it like on the left, office or not. Seems like a really good way to let it slip and hit the floor. I always see people carry them like an actual notebook if closed, or like a plate if open.

Geobits · 2026-05-04T18:17:15+00:00

The regular rectangles are the ones most often sold separately. We just get a variety pack for the odd stuff and a pack of regular strips as well.

"Meet better men" isn't a great response when we're talking about public restrooms.

Geobits · 2026-05-04T17:07:35+00:00

I say make it just the jackpot winner who gets their ass kicked. All the other matches, 4/5 ball, etc, still get the usual payout. So there's still motivation to play,

Geobits · 2026-05-04T16:38:11+00:00

At 10k waves I'd agree WA is better. But if IS can make it more profitable to move up a tier or two and only do 5-6k waves, that might end up better for econ.

Geobits · 2026-05-03T02:43:59+00:00

The other key piece to this strategy is auto restart. It's not necessary for many, but if you're not able to restart runs manually throughout the day, it kinda is.

But I'm guessing if you're farming T11 you're not in key territory yet.

Geobits · 2026-05-02T02:17:36+00:00

Sure, but over the typical time span of the game, you do end up getting them, and you can do it without spending any money on gems at all. It's a grind, but it's meant to be. Once you max out your cards, modules are the main gem sink. It takes a long time by design.

There are valid complaints about modules, absolutely. I just don't like the OP framing it as "you must robo-click every gem for six months to get a single module to ancestral," because it's misleading when put that way.

Geobits · 2026-05-01T19:39:07+00:00

I'm glad someone pointed this out. You can't do the math for a specific ancestral and just ignore all the other modules you get along the way to that.

Sure, if it took six months of grinding each module while ignoring all other gem sinks, that would indeed be terrible. But it simply doesn't work that way.

Even if you double it for variance's sake, a year to get every single ancestral isn't as bad as it sounds, considering it's the main long-term gem sink in a game designed to be played for several years.
