Almost replenished my vip...

Punatulkku

But then i thought a bit. My 2 legendary tokens gave me cho and iw.. Not very appealing, iso was so small amounts that it made me more angry than happy. Rewards were so horrendous that i feel like cow that is forcibly milked. I was going to load anyway, until i got to todays legendary fight.

What the bloody hell moves between your ears? Do you test your content? Do you have any idea how to appease players so that you get MORE MONEY?

Happy customers pay more easily, angry/sad/disappointed customers, like myself with your cheating autocascade monsters well, i dont want to support your bad programmers who dont work with player base.

So, until you fix your errors, test your own game with realistic teamsetups (ye we know you guys only run max champed guys to test your stuff) etc i wont spend a dime to your company. You are not worthy...

I'm not sure I understand the link between VIP and the Crash match. I'm assuming you lost a few times and it raged you out, which is why you made this post.

Two things about Crash matches:

A) They're supposed to be challenging. Losing a few times isn't that big a deal, especially if you are using an undercovered 4*. My Flaptain is 3/5/5 and level 150 and I lost a couple times before I got this one. Admittedly some are much easier than others (Lookin' at you there Iceman).

Denying the opponent's colors is WAY more important than collecting yours. Flaptain isn't actually that bad because Capt. Marvel's red doesn't hit that hard and her yellow is a passive, so prioritizing is easy: deny black, if no black is available, collect/deny red. If no black or red available, collect yellow.

Additionally, AI cascades are always a thing that's going to happen. It's just way more noticeable in a 1v1 situation because you're working with a much smaller pool of health on your team.

I'm not saying you should buy VIP, just, you know, take a deep breath and consider that posting OMG U GAIZ R TEH DUMBZ is probably not going to get you what you want.

The flaptain crash match is easy to lose, but once you have enough covers for red, and at least one yellow, then it gets pretty easy to one- or two-shot cap marvel when there's enough on the board.

She steals a lot of red and yellow so it's still pretty annoying. Took me 7 tries with my 4/4/5 130 falcap

I just got done telling my alliance that without the 2nd LT VIP is really blah.

The Thing that drove me away from buying VIP again was the idiotic change to PVE.

We told them what's wrong with their tests and they kept coming with the same flawed events.

We've been complaining about ISO draught forever. They did nothing to help that.

5star progression via RNG is stupid and left several top vets in the dust.

They don't listen, so i won't pay.

my flaptain is at lvl 170, 2/5/3 and i have done now 37 tries, with extra yellow/red and all tiles etc... cant do it

Punatulkku

I have gotten her to 1017hp, so i know its winnable. But the darn thing cheats by super cascades and getting all yellows etc. And when i get 9 yellows she gets magically enough reds from cascade to negate my divebomb

OP:

You should buy or not buy VIP based on the probabilties, not the outcomes. If you buy two lottery tickets (LTs) and hit the jackpot, does that mean that you will do the same if you buy 2 more? What's the chance that the VIP rewards will make a real different for your roster? If you are in 1* ir 2* land, then maybe the odds of pretty good. Otherwise it's probably a waste of cash.

Jarvind: flaptain is one of the hardest 4*ddq fights, and one with the strictest requirements: if you have 5 red covers, then it shouldn't be much trouble. If not it's a real pain. Beyond a single yellow cover to boost his red damage, none of his other covers really do much to help against marvel.

Aesth: I think the it's likely that the devs do test with max level characters, but it's pretty clear that they don't everbuild max level characters. They just mock what ever they need in a dev console. So that's why the transition is such a steaming pile of tinykitty. And none of the devs actually have an elder game account (which makes sense: why would you play the game you develop at work during your free time?).

Honestly, as infuriating as it is, I think trying to luck into an ideal scenario in a hard Crash is the best part of the game.

I won the Nova one with a 2-cover Nova after like 60 tries a couple months ago and while it drove me bonkers, it was exactly the sort of puzzle I wish was more common in the game. (Not that I want the game to be irredeemably hard in general, but I think it's good when there's always some kind of white whale type of achievement that you need to take seriously in order to manage.)

Not to belabor this thread, but in this matchup you shouldn't be casting your yellow until you are ready to divebomb once or preferably twice. Perhaps your difficulty is strategic.

I lost a bunch of times with my 454 Flaptain, although I made the decision not to put more ISO into him. This really is one of the hardest Crash matchups for all the reasons above, so I don't mind losing. Good luck next Crash!

Jealous. I couldn't win this one for the life of me. Mine's 150 at 4/1/3. I wiped 10 times, using up all my "+ all" stash and a couple thousand iso on the R/Y boosts. I got kinda close once and kicked myself when I noticed I'd missed a red match which would've given me two shield hits. Just before she blasted me I calculated how much I could've done with 2 hits and fresh shields. I still would've been short by about 500 hp.

That's correct. THe strategy is match, match, match, build up your yellow and red, which denying her red and black as best as possible.

Then when you have enough yellow for one power and enough red for one or two powers, and there are enough yellow tiles on the board, cast yellow then red once or twice.

If you cast red willy-nilly, then you'll just anger her and give her too many red and black to obliterate you. You must be patient, young padawan.

I don't understand this. You get two LT's every time? Has this changed from what they'd made clear when they opened it that you get 'sign up' LT on day 0 each time?

The assertion isn't that there's only one LT on renewal.

The assertion is "if it weren't for the second token, there's not much there to recommend it."

As in, if the 'sign up' LT ever went away, "VIP is really blah."

That's my read.
