Final Rank: 14k

Final Score: <2M

Deck Power (Pre/Begining/End/Post): 12.7k during / 11.3 post

Money Spent (and currency): 0

Coins Spent: 100

Battle Cubes: 76 (used)

Energon Cubes: 45 (used)

Nets: estimated 300 (used over 30 on LB all for nothing)

Chains: 2 used, didn't even get one fully evolved card

Medals: Okay, here's a kicker. I pull Episode Blaster Robot mode with less than 5 hours remaining in the event from a gold medal. It's only a R4, but it is proof that the character episode cards show up from time to time.

Liked: New event, Evolve cards, not relying on anyone else to perform well (IE seeds), lower cost event to acquire decent cards, the "catch up" feel the event had in terms of allowing newbies to get a good start.

Disliked: LAG, Length of event (was far too long), LAG, nets are useless, FAILURE showing up all the time is just annoying and no fun to see repeatedly, and more LAG.

Other:  I had mixed emotions as this event went on. At one point I was about ready to quit due to lag issues, and I still feel they have a lot of work to do to fix this game in that regard. I am always getting connection error messages or randomly dumped out of the game entirely. It's a gigantic pain to be honest. It takes me about 2-3 minutes to get back into the game and continue where I was and that's without the lag. I have a decent device and internet connection, so the problem isn't on my end. It was taking almost 20 minutes to make it through the hardest difficulty levels and that was just 1-1, for example. I wanted to throw my phone across the room half the time.

That being said, my thoughts on the event as a whole are actually quite positive. The nets, and in turn, the chances of securing an EVO card absolutely need to be tuned to our favor more. It's insane that I blew through over 30 Nets on LB alone and got nothing. Even with that, I like the concept of this event. I don't need to stare at a screen waiting to see if any new seeds popped up, I can do it on my own when I feel like it. Also, the cost of obtaining a decent fully ME'd card is much lower than in the other events. I didn't spend any money on this one or a lot of time (My rank proves this), but could see myself dropping money on some chains in the future as well as using the bridge for the right event. Really, that's what this game has come down to for me. Do I like the characters in the rewards / bridge? If yes, I'll play and drop money. If not, I'm skipping it at this point. There are minor things they need to fix such as DP being off, the phantom 1% HP remaining bug / screwjob that they do on ALL events to drain cubes, DeceptiRob and his mighty cohorts, but overall I actually did enjoy this event type. Those are my thoughts.
