Just got a free agent that dropped two in a row back on a winning streak and got offered a fight against a beast. Every part of me wanted to decline it, and I suspect he may get beaten. In the end I accepted it to see how much my guys wrestling has improved. At some point he has to be tested against the next level. Unfortunately I don't think he will pass the exam. I’m using those “unwinnable” fights to try new tactics… one is bound to work eventually. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattlesnake1957 Posted August 24, 2022 Report Share Posted August 24, 2022 I'm New to the game an I know my fighters right now are rather lackluster. However I tend to accept my fights offered and try to build for the fight given. Hardest thing so far is learning these sliders and making my fighters do what I want and to try and not be one dimensional. Only person I want to be on the same page right now with is my mentor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
762x39 Posted September 4, 2022 Report Share Posted September 4, 2022 I have never turned down a fight since I started the game. I very rarely ask for fights. My opinion you sign the fight you are sent. With that said I have usually been in good orgs that only send fair fights. If you’re in a shitty org and not getting fair fights I fully understand why a person wouldn’t 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Slay Posted January 8, 2023 Report Share Posted January 8, 2023 Think I have only declined 1 or 2 fights so far & because the fight was too soon after just having a fight so the fighter would not have recovered enough energy or been able to have any between-fight training which younger fighters should be doing. I have taken short notice fights once or twice but I would not want to do that often or the fighter will not be keeping pace with his peers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottfutile Posted January 8, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2023 I had a spell of accepting every fight and had about a 20% win rate. It took me for about 84th to 420th. I even had a fighter fight twice in a weekend and insanely he won both, and then won again the following weekend. It feels incredibly random. I find takedowns are bonkers lately. I've had 5 or 6 fights where my fighter has spammed takedowns despite the sliders being set the other way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Slay Posted January 8, 2023 Report Share Posted January 8, 2023 I've not seen any "slider shenanigins" myself but I tend to never go 100% on anything just to avoid any max-number issues, which I have seen in other games where something on the back end overlaps. 95-99% I tend to aim for if I want close to absolute in one thing.

Scottfutile Posted January 8, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2023 I suspect it may be due to my clinch settings and an error on my behalf. Nonetheless it has caught me with my pants down a few times. It is amazing how every time I think, okay I've got this figured out, it slips through my fingers like diarrhoea through a spaghetti strainer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Slay Posted January 8, 2023 Report Share Posted January 8, 2023 Definitely an art to slider-fu, I've spent hours reading about it & I am still in the dark really. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mans over here saying that managers shouldn't be accepting all fight offers and make org owners life that much more difficult(while already running the most time consuming company in the game even without the fight rejections). And then some newbies are going to come across this post, think "holy shit, I better stop accepting fight offers that aren't disgustingly skewed in my favor or I'll end up w/ a record as bad as this dudes", and start annoying the shit out of all org owners. So no, your record isn't that bad because you accept every fight offer. It's that bad because you still haven't learned how to play after all of this time.

I mean.....I'd be lying to say I haven't turned down fights. But Id say I accept 90+% even if its not in my favour... The purpose is to have fun and I'd say I've done pretty good just dickin around in the game. I mean if you only want winnable fights...Get VIP start your own company and only hire fighters that you can beat. But other wise don't clog up companies that are trying to host events and players that are trying to have fun 😉. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some managers think it’s the fucking ufc over here and ruin everyone else’s playing experience. Which is exactly what my issue is with that post. Plus I felt a bit confrontational lol. 99/100 times I’d pass right by and ignore a post like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
