There was probably a good prize for the top spots on the individual leaderboard for that feud. Again, there was no actual money spent.

Is that true of all faction feuds, there's no way to pay-to-win?

If so, we should get our e-detectives to find out what he was up to on 12/27 and 12/28/2019, when he racked up his top performance. Was he gone all day, cooming at lightspeed?

Was it maybe some kinda streamer or content creator who has a stake in dick swinging? Otherwise what the actual hell.

The only WWE streamer seems to be Guersan's Gaming. He came in 7966th place in Phil's top event, with 213085 points. In other words, Phil racked up almost 22x more points than the one guy on the planet whose job it is to play WWE Champions.

While there is no direct spending, you can get damage bonuses for having pay-to-win characters in your feud lineup. It's really all in how you want to look at it. There is certainly an advantage given in feuds for dropping money in other aspects of the game.

Got it. So if I'm understanding correctly, we can safely assume that there's a pod of top whales out there who already have maxed-out top wrestlers (or close enough to it), and the feud winner will generally be the one of those who puts the most time into it. And a spike in Phil's ranking is most likely a spike in his time spent rather than splashing out cash - he's probably close enough to an optimal roster that he could only get marginal gains by spending more.

However, winning one of these contests means that you probably played for 24 straight hours. If you want to view time as money then there was definitely a bunch wasted in that case.

Is there no energy/stamina component to it? I'm surprised Scopely hasn't done that to try and eek out more money.

Streamed both days, so I guess he was knocking it out before and streams.

Yeah, that's pretty accurate. I was pretty surprised to see how high he finished in past feuds. DSP always struck me more as the completionist type who wants all the shiny objects that can possibly be acquired in the game for flexing purposes.

In order to do well in a feud, you need health packs and/or a faction that is ready to heal their teammates. DSP certainly had both of those during his peak time in the game.

How long was he on-stream?
I'm wondering if it's as simple as the top guy literally played 48 hours straight, and Phil played 48 hours minus streaming time and the occasional pignap.

And by the way, we're all adults here, we know what you mean by "knocking it out" :tomgirl:

Looks like it was standard streams, so figure 6-7 hours of actual on-screen time. I'm assuming he was playing during the part of the prestream where he's not on camera.

During the end of December he both cancelled his annual WWE fantasy stream and he claimed he was too busy to slap together the best and worst games of 2019 video. He couldn't do the wrestling stream because the 2020 game was too broken and he was too busy to reupload one of his dozen of other wrestling games. He also didn't do his annual Christmas stream on Christmas because he was busy spending time with his family.

It looks like he was really just binging on mobile gatcha.
 
I tried playing this game casually as a f2p to see how it works, not for very long, and the amount of glitches I've run into is more than I would've expected.

This one was the least problematic so far and only lasted for a short time, but worth capturing. It also happened to the wrestler pirate girl, a shame I didn't screenshot that one.

My guess, someone inside Scopely keeping that number one spot out of reach so people will whale more trying to get there.

Not unless they're doing a really good job hiding it. The top players all seem to bounce around quite a bit, from top ten to down in the hundreds, and the #1 guy is never the same (except one repeat).
 
Weird they dont even have 100 people I wondered why they kicked him/he left just to come back.

Maybe he wouldnt join their discord so they booted him until he did?

Is this the "people better step up" guild?

I can't imagine this is an overly serious group. DSP is probably looked at in awe by his teammates.
 
I assume Phil joined/tried joining a better guild and came crawling back. Road Warriorz is far from elite.

A lottapeepul do that in these games, it is unusual that a whale of Phil's stature has to though.
