Roman's character would be legitimately interesting to me if the presentation didn't treat the audience like idiots. Like it's such a weird character-- I'm not saying the announcers need to bury him for heelishness, you can be subtle about it, but don't tell me that he deserves a title match.

He's kinda a lot like Hulk Hogan in a lot of ways if Hulk Hogan didn't win all the time and if the audience liked him a lot less. On that note Corey Graves being Roman Reigns's Bobby Heenan would help so much I think. Just some acknowledgement that this character doesn't make sense, even if it's from the heel commentator, would help so much.

Few tricks to building up low popularity guys beyond what Tom said

1. Putting them in angles with higher popularity and/or talented workers will get them over that initial hump of total jobberdom pretty fast. Ideally you want to put them with a guy a bit above their level to make the segments stronger but not someone who will completely overshadow them cause the "looked lost out there" penalty matters a lot I believe.
2. In matches having a guy lose respectably-- like a match that gets time and with the open match note, will help a ton. Don't do the "keep strong" note on a guy that's losing if they're a jobber though that ends up backfiring I feel.
3. If you want to book them over higher popularity guys save it for your big events. Otherwise you're just pissing them off for little reason as on TV shows the actual booking doesn't matter nearly as much as the win/loss impact is lessened there. Also ideally you feed them jobbers or whatever before that since the momentum thing seems to matter a lot for overness conversion when a guy wins the match.

Overall I find it pretty easy to the point where when I'm running low popularity feds I need to play conservative so the AI doesn't cannibalize my guys before I can sign them to written, but it might be down to booking style.

Honestly I'm more interested in Roman vs Brock 1v1 than a triple threat which just seemed lazy. Brock vs Lashley 1v1 was the only potential match I legit would have liked to see. Roman vs Brock 1v1 again I have a morbid interest in just to see how far the crowd can bury it. Keep in mind they're both bad enough that Summerslam is avoid for me.

It is 100% the worse booking though, though not one I'd fully ruled out.

Yeah I always end up doing less of the grind for these AP saving grinds than I want to because the real time investment becomes more irritating than the AP. I'm hoping to get a bit of bone grinding done before the 1/2 AP ends, though I still haven't quite finished the first time Free Quests yet (to be fair I did go chain grinding before doing all of them to get Nitocris ascended)

Lashley winning clean again would actually be a decent way to build Brock vs Lashley if by some miracle they're going with that. Then you'd have two guys who fairly decisively have Roman's number facing off which gives it a bit more intrigue than it would if Lashley just won once.

But I'd call that the third most likely result behind Draw/No Contest (I expect this for the cop-out Triple Threat) and Roman winning.

+1 Julia
+1 Brave Lucina

I could have a +4 Brave Lyn, a +3 Brave Ike, a +3 Takumi, and a +2 Hector, +2 Legendary Lyn, +2 Fjorm, and a +1 Celica but I prefer using their skill inheritance instead. I also have a potential +1 Elise, +1 Summer Tana and +2 Bride Ninian but I haven't decided whether I'll merge or fodder them.

I generally have fairly good luck with natures but my +4 Grima Robin is +Spd/-Atk which says all you need to know about the other 4 I got and why I'm basically "screw it let's just +10 her" at this point.

Gonna suck when I get to +10 and she's still running -Spd or -Atk. She's not even good for skill inheritance.

Very little overlap between my top 10 (from this list) and yours but a solid top 10 nonetheless. Only two guys remaining I never really saw much appeal for and I've long since accepted it's more me not clicking than them not having that appeal.

Also I really need to watch Kenny Omega's matches. Like, any of them. There's no real reason for it as much as the majority of my NJPW viewing has been from 2014-2015 which was before he was a big thing.

Boring and heavily centered on the event in question which is like, weird. Support conversations are supposed to create their own context and be about something random related to the character. These are just like... dialogue that should (or shouldn't, I suppose, given the boringness) be present for the event.

I honestly think if they were actual support conversations with Kiran and the character about random ass stuff that could've been kinda cool in spite of being a far cry from what I actually wanted.

Or alternatively just have the character monologue about random stuff. Some of the level 40 monologues are okay. Kiran dialogue interaction (either just write in his dialogue or you picking responses) would be a lot better though.

But he publicly apologized for the jokes and comments in 2012 already.


To me that's what makes it particularly egregious if it's true (I don't exactly follow Gunn enough to know). Putting aside whether offensive jokes should be grounds to fire someone to begin with, at that point it should be considered kinda water under the bridge-- a bridge that has been standing for 6 years. I don't think necessarily everyone deserves a second chance just for free, but if you show remorse instead of trying to blame someone or whatever, you should definitely get one as long as it's nothing too extreme you did.

If he apologized and is doing a good job though? Yeah, definitely kinda weird to fire him now. Feels more like giving into terrorism than actually a deserved firing. I could see them trying to go back on the firing once things settle down a bit (or GotG 3 flops!)

Yeah Fast Act 8 (good ability not often found on Magicite) and Health Boon 5 (built in synergy with surging power and best mitigation against stuff that ignores def/res) seem the best to me. I'd probably do that even if you could inherit surging power anyway since diminishing returns kinda make it so you can afford to lug two off element things per deck and have minimal efficiency loss.

Update support does not care. Not surprising. Oh well, at least it was post keystones. I'm more upset about the real time wasted than the stamina.

On the plus side my average clear time to beat Tiamat has been refined to like 20 seconds average over my running so when (if-- needing Dampen Earth 10x2 is a long time off since I beat Midgarsomr once and my wind team sucks) I do that again it'll be easier.

I did some draws on the new power banner as an excuse to pull more blue and maybe get another Nephenee for a +1. Got Delthea (+Atk/-Spd) at 3.25%. Her speed isn't actually super high and her attack is so this honestly seems like a not terrible nature though you'd ideally want -Def. I won't complain I guess.

Much like last time I complained about dumb RNG with Kraken, the game has repented. 4 Sylph in 24 runs is a lot less bad than 2 in 20. Good to hear this mechanic disappears-- guess it's an easy way to remove it just have more bosses.

Man I've done literally 20 runs of Tiamat between yesterday and today trying to get 4 Slyphs to put Fast Act 8 on an Evrae

I've pulled 2. Along with 8 Tiamats and 10 Silver Dragons

I'd be so upset if we were still using Keystones that I'd probably have used RK Inspector by now. As it is it's only slightly irritating since this is the most efficient way to level magicite anyway. What a dumb mechanic though.
