Re: Blacktop Challenge
How people can win 8 games in a round is blowing my mind. I finish 6 as fast as possible and have at most 5 seconds left.Comment

Re: Blacktop Challenge
You have to fight against the same opponent several times in a row (the opponent with more +VP of course), but if his cards have the ability activated them you are going to loose time because the animation while charging the ability consumes more time. Each game is a bit longer and you can´t complete the all games in time.
This is not a good mode for a mobile.Comment

Re: Blacktop Challenge
Oh you thought CD would offer out a new mode without any cash grabbing schemes huh?
Let's say if you have a 1/20 chance at that enhancement, you'd have to have 80 picks over the course of the month to pull all the required enhancements, so that's probably 4k-5k credits spending (after taking out the daily picks) just on enhancements!
So I just wanted to point this out to you guys before you spend 5+ hrs a day on this mode on a 17% chance, unless you plan to spend quite a bit as well.
I am all for a new mode, but the effort/spending vs the probability makes no sense at all.
Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkSorry I keep saying 17%, but lords know how many team of the day players you have to feed in to even get to it.
I know I'm a bit negative this morning but reality is I like the concept of this mode. But the "playability" would be a lot higher if the chances are tripled or quadrupled at each level - 7.5-10% at Super, and 1/2 or 2/3 chance at Ultimate.

Thanks for posting these breakdowns, they've helped me realize there is little point in playing this mode (for my personal playing habits).Comment

Re: Blacktop Challenge
The device makes a big difference, I have an iPhone 6s and can play 7 games and the first card in the 8th game, there is no way without a hack that anyone can play more than that period.__________________

Re: Blacktop Challenge
Maybe I'm crazy, maybe there's a mechanic I'm not aware of but
does anyone get rounds where they feel they aren't getting points? I feel like there's been more than enough rounds I've played that I won and got no VP for. Like guys I'm playing have 5 worse cards than my worst and at the end I finish 6 games and only get 5 wins worth of points. It's really frustrating.Comment

Re: Blacktop Challenge
Yea, I think it's still slightly low for my taste, but I'll take it considering I didn't expect CD to act on it unless we complain for months. If you cook 3-4 ultimate recipes to close out the year, it should at least give you 1 top tier player.

Re: Blacktop Challenge
Found a bug where if you carry the BTC draft pick rewards into the RC, there are times you don't get the RC points, energy, and "count" towards Goals. Having the picks is a great way to draft Hot Streaks in batches, but beware. Sent in the feedback (without the many screenshots needed to prove the case), but I'm not sure if CD will be able to fix this on the backside like they did for changing the numbers for BTC pull % without a maintenance shut down.
Also, did anyone watch any additional videos or read any other articles from the promo team? The only ones I watched was the initial YoungGaryOak video and the initial McDiddy article. My question is... did CD let the promo crew test out the BTC with weaker decks to see how those decks fare and any strategies that could be used? All I know is that I'm running a 25 Star Pro deck with cards mostly charged and still running house even with unenergized 30% (or completely drained) cards in most of the rounds....
(Btw, I generally max out at 6 games with cards out of position on a Samsung Galaxy S6 on T-Mobile network in Orange County, CA. Might be a bit faster on Wi-Fi but haven't tried it yet as it's less stable while I stream videos while playing.)Last edited by CAMeagle; 03-11-2016, 04:44 AM.IGN: CAM☆EAGLE

Yes, my deck is pretty average compare to most here (a few Star pros, and the rest leg pros) and even I was able to dominate most BTC. It seems there are lots of beginner or non hardcore players trying the mode out since it is new. So the matchmaking tends to favor us. I have only had one instance where I was matched with a couple of tanks in the same BTC including @Matt43 here with all Event/Theme Star pros. He beat me by 2 haha, that was a good BTC.
As for the internet, yes, Wifi is the way to go if you need to get as much win as possible. My Nexus V can get me 7 plus the start of the first quarter of game #8 on wifi.
Edit: What are you doing up so early? And I thought I was early. Haha

Re: Blacktop Challenge
Didn't see anyone post a card from it yet, maybe most here are going for at least a Super. But just did a Basic now. I wonder if they are all 2 Spec...

Re: Blacktop Challenge
@CAMeagle it's probably similar to the glitch where if you have unclaimed cards in AH you don't get credit for winning games when your deck gets close to 150. Probably just something we'll have to live with cause I bet patching it either opens up more issues or there isn't a way to patch it just increase the limit which then people will keep trying to stack picks and we'll have the same issueHiComment
