If they had removed the 150k, kept the 1k around and given the 150k out as a daily reward later on they would have earned some brownie points despite the complains instead of dumbassery on their part.

UoC aren't handed out left and right, so every piece counts as we won't see extras like JP when they fucked up early on as is. (Something we didn't have to experience I braced for.)

See, that might have earned them brownie points, but this community will forget about that as soon as the next big outrage hits. Look at how the anniversary was handled. Most people were happy with what we got, and the only complaining was from the people who whine about everything.

Fast forward a month and everybody has forgot about the anniversary and are only focused on the bad. The FFBE GL playerbase has an incredibly short memory when it comes to the good stuff, but they never forget about the bad.

I do think this whole situation is pretty funny.

For the longest time people bitched about UoC.

We got UoC, and they bitched that it wasn't the same as JP.

Gumi definitely fucked up, but a large portion of the playerbase won't be happy no matter what they do. They could give us 4 stubs a month for daily logins, and people would be whining that it isn't 5, or that JP still had a 1k stub from mog events that we didn't get. I don't understand why the people like that keep playing. If you can't be happy with anything the developer does, just stop playing. As much as I loved Friday the 13th, when Gun stopped caring about players hacking, I stopped playing and have had no desire to continue.

Owens is back this early because Lashley needs to finally win a feud since returning. They don't want returning talent to realize that once they put over Roman, they have no more use to Vince.

Jinder was right there!

Jinder lacks the credibility of Owens though, and also the overall skill to make Lashley look good. If they give Lashley a feud with Jinder, it becomes too obvious!

Don't look at the second to last announcement in the announcement-thingie on the home screen.

Was that the Units Galore, CASH UOC bundle that they never dropped? I really wish Shaly or Dah Sol could tell us what went on behind closed doors with that (or with people finding that). Guessing it got removed or delayed because of the shitstorm they're getting over the UoC stubs in the mog event. Still, pretty funny to see. The reddit thread on it was spectacular!

Im having a hard time thinking of anything on Raw outside of Owens right now, which is why I ask. If theres minimal chance if his story progressing this early, Id rather take the chance and just read a recap in the morning.

Define progressing?

It will obviously be referenced on the show but Im almost certain that his next move wont be tonight

Having him appear on tv with a mic talking about why he quit.

Given Raws stellar writing, it wouldnt surprise me if he was in a random tag match with no reference to quitting though.

Let's hope they aren't dumb enough to put Marquois on a banner since he was an iffy at best 7* raid unit with awful drop rate.

My first thought after reading this was "Oh, they'll add him as the second rainbow on Hyoh's banner, and set his on banner rate to 80%"

I'm glad that Gumi made Global's UoC tickets worse for basically no reason other than "we didn't like people being able to pick the characters they want"

I've been trying to think of a logical reason behind it, but that's really all I can come up with too!

I'd be interested to see how many players they lost with 7*, and how many they could potentially lose with how they're handling UoC now. Is there another way to tell outside of how easy it is to get rankings in arena/raids?

If he had destroyed them too instead of celebrating with them, then its actually great IMO

But then people would cheer him again.

We'll see next week. I could see something playing out where Dolph/Drew try to buddy up with Braun, and he destroys them both because last week was a one time thing, but I doubt Vince would go that route. That wouldn't help Roman in any way, and it's all about the big dog.

That is an interesting point about Owens though. Unless the point of that was to build to his I quit storyline, it serves no purpose.

No one who has experienced a wet fart would say it isn't game changing unless they have no dignity.

And this made me laugh so hard I almost choked on a Sun Chip!

So thoughts on the Kevin Owens thing. Don't think any of this will actually happen, but I'd like it if it did!

He comes back wearing a mask next week, as "Owen Kevins", or without the mask as Kevin Steen.

He was talking about not having anyone watching his back with Sami injured. Sometime before the PPV, the Shield are taking out Braun 3 on 1, and Owens runs out with a chair or a shotgun or something to make the save. Now Owens and Braun are friends. The only problem with this one is that it does nothing to put Owens in the hunt for the Universal title, as he's Braun's Wingman there.

The Superman Punch is just the most boring attempt at a big time game changing move to me. To me it's just like... You got punched in the head. You've gotten punched many times in the head in this match. Why are you so hurt now by this one? It just seems like such a wet fart of a move.

So much this. I love the "wet fart of a move" thing. I might have to steal that description in the future

The problem with Roman matches is that they tend to follow the same formula of "Roman gets beat up for 20 minutes. Superman punch, spear"

That was most definitely not the formula for the matches I mentioned.

Roman is a good worker when they let him be. Sticking him with Brock didn't help.

The matches you mentioned, yes. But look at his matches with pretty much everybody else outside of those 3. I'm not saying Roman is a bad worker, I'm just saying that I'd like a little more diversity in his moveset, since superman punch spam followed by a spear is just plain boring, especially when the superman punch is ridiculous to begin with. He does that drive by (I think that's what it's called?) on occasion, and I've seen him do Samoan drops regularly. He had a pretty good sit down powerbomb thing. Maybe my issue is just that I really, really hate the superman punch.

I did forget to mention Roman kicking out of finishers all over the place too (even more than others seem to, since that's become a regular thing for everybody now).

Roman Reigns managed to have a good match with the Big Show in 2015.

An actual good match. Without qualifiers.

I hate the push he receives but he's a solid worker.

That's why I said in my post that you quoted that he's not a bad worker (bolded). My issue is with his limited and boring moveset, not his ability as a worker.

What's wrong with the superman punch?

It's ridiculous. People sell it like they've been shot, when it's just a jumping wind up punch. If he set it up more like AJ does with the forearm and getting extra momentum off of the ropes and gravity that'd be fine, but he literally just runs, jumps, and punches. It's a jumping punch. Adding the name "superman" to a jumping punch and having people sell it like he's Clark Kent doesn't make it impressive. The guy uses a jumping punch as his number 2 move.

If he was built like Big Show or even Braun it'd be more believable, but he's not.

But Evolution guys!

Does WWE have a contract signed already that requires them to come back? If so, they should try to find a way out of it. The hypocracy of sitting there touting everything you do for women is staggering when you look at them going back again (and probably again and again) for wads of cash. Being a business and wanting to maximize profits is fine, but don't pretend you're all for the women's movement blah blah blah and then keep following the money.

With Braun I at least get to see him turn someone inside out with a shoulder tackle, and shift the ring when he misses his running tackle in the corner and hits the post. Braun's high powered offense and creativity with tossing people around is a lot more interesting (in my eyes) than Roman's 2 moves of doom.

I just want bonus units. I use 4* tickets though, will go for 3 initially and if Olive can't solo DPS it with Grapeshot and the boss with Immolation blast, I'll keep CG Fina in for reraise. If she can, I'll get another 4*.

I'm just waiting for people to realize that they won't be able to show off a fancy 7* Hyoh without pulling 2 on banner right away. If I get 2 of him on the step up, great! If I only get 1, I don't mind waiting for his banner to disappear. No rush.

Oh, I agree he's better heel

My complaint is moreso that in blatantly turning him heel, they're painting Roman as the face that you're supposed to want to see conquer the heel

Which means Braun isn't gonna beat him

So I hope the Corbin shenanigans happen

I honestly don't think Braun would beat him even if he was a face. Vince has waited 4 years for this run with Roman as champ where the Shield was together again to help insulate Roman against his normal boos (since without the Shield, Roman is still getting booed), and he's not going to end that after a month. I don't see Roman dropping the belt prior to Mania without injury or anything like that. My guess right now is the PPV after Mania, so Roman can walk out with the belt again, even if he's finally out of the main event in favor of Charlotte/Ronda.

That being said, I would love it if someone else had the belt, even Corbin. Would prefer Owens or Braun though.

Ah, makes sense. I don't recall seeing buff resists often in the arena, so I think I'll just suck it up for that week. Having break resists as part of the kit for one of the major healers is just too good to pass up.

FFBE IGN Raiden, Whatever I have that best fits the current content. Everything else (but Basch) available on request.

I do think Braun works better as a heel, it's just a matter of getting the crowed to boo him. Jim Ross said something in an interview recently about how it's hard to have a guy like Braun be a face (similar to the earlier days of Taker, since they're so much bigger than everyone else). What seemed to get Braun over in the first place was the new and exciting ways he destroyed people (mainly Roman). If they go back to that he's just going to get cheered again.

Shit, Ayaka gets break resistance in there with Stop Detach? Well that becomes a problem now! Break Resist is needed so often in harder content and I'd love to have that available on a unit I was bringing in anyway. But then the arena becomes more of a crapshoot since Ayaka's use drops off a lot. Decisions decisions.

I hope CG Fina gets AoE Break resists too, since I really like her party reraise spam.
