Yep, they'd been talking about it since yesterday. "Ring Domination". When your update installs and you hop on you will see a preview box for it. Click that and you can get the rules and try and understand. They're having a preview event for it I think Friday.

Nice...not a fan of Cena at all, but he is my first SV FC, so since it wasn't a support, I'm happy with it. xD

Well, this is certainly intriguing...improved my RD deck (yeah, they let you improve it before the event starts) from L++ to SV, and while I won't get my hopes up looks like I could unlock WM card...can't wait to see this in action.

Pulled a Survivor Cesaro from exhibition yesterday, then got a 2nd from KOTR, must be due another Wrestlemania soon though.

The new mode seems interesting, at least people will want to play at their highest level possible rather than nerf their decks.

My survivor fusion just finished, got Roman Reigns and decided to chuck it in for a Wrestlemania fusion. Takes five days to cook up, hopefully it won't end up being Blassie and preferable not a Diva.

I like that it looks like you don't have to start at common, that's the most time consuming part of RTG, getting to the cards you actually need.

IKR? It would be awesome for me, being at SV also in Exhibition, to earn all 3 possible cards, L-WM, and have a very useful card for all modes. Right now for me a WM card would be freaking priceless. I just hope if I get to that level that the difficulty curve won't be anywhere near as severe as RtG. Don't get me wrong, I want a challenge, but I don't want to be pulling my freaking hair out in frustration because everybody I play has far more superior decks.

So...there's a new friends list...I dunno if anyone would like to add each other by in-game names (my preference, since I "donut" use FB very much anymore)???
If so, my in-game name is aDg2k7 if anyone wants to try to add me. |

I don't think people can be added in-game, has to be via social and you have to add people on whatever platform you're on...I'll give my Google+ name, but as it is my real name and I don't know what kind of people who aren't on the site as members and might therefore be lurking, I'll put it under a spoiler tag. Just the whole "an ounce of prevention" principle...

Other thing that sucks is that it seems you can only add people from either Google+ or FB, whichever you play on, and I'm not about to waste precious memory space to make a new account via FB linking and have to start all over on that one. If you're in FB, then to quote James Storm's TNA theme: Sorry...about your damn luck!

I dunno how you'd feel about this suggestion, but might I point out that in the 2k boards for the official game stuff there is a thread whers people are giving their social names...?

OK...now I understand the RD mode completely...when you click on a shard post-match, you usually just get whatever cards...however, there's a chance of finding a piece (maybe more than 1, dunno) of a card at the rarity you're playing for. Like a jigsaw puzzle...find all the pieces to unlock next level.

Yeah, took me a while to figure that out to, not sure if I'll get round to unlocking anything useful at the rate I'm going, only found one piece so far.

Yep, same here. Good news is every piece found resets the shards, but with x amount less, depending upon how many have been found. Think this preview event goes till like 8PM Eastern time on Monday. I'd at least like to be able to eventually see if the L I'm playing for would give me my first regular L pro...

I'm enjoying it so far, but think they need to be a bit more generous when it comes to uncovering pieces, will take ages to unlock the second card without paying for extra picks. But that won't happen of course.

Agreed with both of the last 2 posts...the first few times playing were fun, especially winning, obviously. But without the pick doubler, you get only 1 pick for a loss and 2 for a win. Why not 2 for loss, 4 for a win without the double pick crap? People who can afford to pay for the most double picks and for instant 5-bout refills will no doubt do so and speed through every time just to get more pieces way faster than everyone else.
Pay-to-win has reared its ugly head again, and with RD it's even worse than RtG. |

Won my first 5 quite easily, now I think I've won 5 out of the last 30....I'm basically screwed if the guy I am playing has more than 2 cards better than Legendary Pro's.....

Yeah, they knew they were designing this shit as a retarded money-grab...punish further those who play fair...those who can afford to pay out their asses for double picks and refilled bouts along with their bought all-WM decks with less than 100 matches played will run roughshod over everybody with overpowered cards they didn't even earn. SMH.

So far I've uncovered five pieces of the Legendary card, no way will I finish uncovering it by the end of the event.
I do like the mode though and find it more enjoyable than PCC, but uncovering card shards needs to be easier and not linked to drawing rare cards and upwards. Maybe if they took away the bouts and let you playing however many matches in the event timeframe. |

This mode is a huge pain in the ass. Can't even scratch the surface on the first puzzle.

I have once again opened this up to play this new mode.... I enjoy the new mode, even if I do lose most of the time due to opponents just having stronger cards/higher deck level.... But I enjoy the "strategy"....
Still only uncovered only two pieces of the first prize, though.... |

Up to nine pieces on the legendary, no chance of getting the Survivor or Wrestlemania card at this rate.

IKR? If they actually expect people who play fair to even have a shot at a 2nd or 3rd card, they need to make these events even longer running than the typical 3 days. Make it 5 from here on out.

Just passed 11,000 matches played...< 500 left till useless last LR UR Paige, E LR Cena and Paige will probably be irrelevant to me too by the time I've played all those matches...Got a L card with piece #6 of L Mysterio...L Ryback...expanding my options for potential L Pro...
Are shard resets their own separate thing from the board since they're two different reward systems? I would think so but don't know if they said anything for sure on that aspect one way or the other. |

Alright, full disclosure time...I first took notice of the doubler thing and after I got my head wrapped around the rules, I decided since I hadn't spent for much of anything in a few months to invest ~$9.98 for 1,200cr., which was enough for 156 doublers...granted I'm still working on L card, but I'll be damned if I'm going to spend more just for free bouts all the time...basically sucks all the challenge out if people use a ton of both.
Of course there's always the people who argue that this is their biggest cash cow and therefore their only way to support and improve the game...guess my occasional buying of credits for event title matches never got to 2K/CD Games... |

So I've noticed my first official bug/glitch in RD...I have E Mgr. Lana (+23 POW to DECK) & L WWE Universev (+75 CHA to SELF), same as in Exhibition. Well, earlier today I was playing a RD match, and waffling on which boost to use...tapped L Universe first, then E Lana...but when I went to apply POW boost to deck, I hadn't decided who my next move would be with, so I was scanning the board and holding down one card before deciding on a different one. So, here's where all goes haywire: after letting up on the superstar card I was holding a second ago, it applied the +75 to self CHA boost and didn't grant +23 POW to deck, BUT...the POW boost drops off the screen and now all of a sudden I have a 2nd CHA boost use when it should only be good 1×. A "2-For-the-Price-of-1", if you will. Normally, I'd let it slide, but I retried it a few more times with the same results, and I don't want others with strong decks beat up weak defenseless decks with this.

I'm warming up to the mode after initially hating it, I should be able to get my Legendary card (Rey Mysterio) just barely.... They'll definitely have to make it easier though.....
