WWE Champions General - Despite his claims, DSP is still spending thousands of dollars on the WWE Champions mobile game

[TJGamebox]

Nigel has posted the percentages of some of the loot boxes, this is an example of one of the previous ones. You have a lot more of different posters for the featured category, so if you're "lucky" enough to get one, pray it's not the 2-3 stars.
It's generally one coin per pull, TJ posted the price for these:

That one has already ended, so there's a new one for you to spend even more. This is a screenshot of the percentages, it seems just a bit more generous, but that's not saying much:

That's for the ones you have to pay that I have not experience with, but there's some free stuff that also has insane low odds.
I tried some bags that you sometimes get as a daily reward, it claims to have a 2SB or 10-1000 shards, and you need 2000 to recruit her.
No matter what, you always seem to get the lowest amount, here as a test I got 30 shards for 3 bags. By the time the month ends, a new superstar will replace her so a F2P account will never have enough chances to get them. Much like other items in Champions, they just work as an incentive for people to spend money.

dont forget also... its just 1.3% to get a featured... doesnt count individual odds per card either! so those shards in the 1.3% may have a 1.2% chance of hitting, meaning ALL OTHER CARDS are ,1%

 

[Penix]

DSP fucking deserves to be hooked by this game, insanity.

I actually want to thank these gotcha games for their low pull rates.

I'll be the first to admit that I am a consumer whale. There are some instances were I would rather just spend $20 than grind for 10 hours ($2/hour). Yes, I fully understand how microtransactions are hurting the game industry, but for a filthy casual like me that just wants to kill time on a week night when nothing is going on, I don't mind spending a little extra money. Like I said a few months ago, I don't regret spending money on Ultimate Teams because that was the money that I used to spend at bars, restaurants, and movies and all of those things were closed.

I know that with low pull rates, they hook the whales to spend even more money. For me, I stopped spending money because (1) everything started reopening, and (2) I was tired of spending money and getting dirt nothing in return. Not Champions, but I'll use this as an example, if the "Featured" rate was at 10% and the "Mega Rare" rate was at 20%, I probably would still be a whale; I'm not ashamed to admit it. But when I watch people on Twitch spend $500 on 25 Ultimate packs (the best pack in the game), and get almost literally nothing, then that helps me realize just how bullshit this all is.

You could also just spend that $20 buying an actual game with 40, 50, 60 hours of enjoyable gameplay, just sayin'.

Agreed, but I already have a backlog of those too. I have every single "Soulsborne" game and played none of them.

DSP has not hit top 100 except for this morning. he was in the threshold of "possibly not spent" but ill see tomorrow.

this was in the Global Chat today

theres a sucker born every day

Maybe the low tips is finally hitting him where it hurts, his jpegs

Sudden bills will appear tomorrow, ending his good luck streak and now he needs help once more, since the YouTube payment went all into backtaxes and the mortgage.

Don't worry, he's getting the JPEGs he missed and a bunch more as compensation.

I don't want to moralfag, but if anybody has known somebody with a gambling addiction it is very very sad. I recall seeing my friend leaving the grocers empty handed and when I asked what he was up to he said he spent all his food money on scratch offs again.

Feel free to TMI me, but I legitimately feel bad for Phil's parents and all his friends he undoubtedly stole money from through lies and deception. Phil doesn't exist in a vacuum and he certainly has caused all sorts of stress and hardship for those who actually knew him personally.

Me too, I've had multiple family members ruin their lives due to scratch offs. Hence why I avoid them like the plague, don't even gift that shit to me.

We joke about Phil someday being forced to get a real job... but, what I think will really kill him is that he's not just going to stop spending on shitty gacha games when reality finally hits.

You are right, too much stress on a horse can cause real, lasting trauma. They need stabilty and routine to stay health.

Phil doesn't have a friend in the world. He did have his parents bail him out at least once though.

DSP only entered top 100 at around 6am pst on Sunday, and proceeded to get squished down. Sadly that’s all I saw as he didn’t crack top 100 after that. Can’t track spending as realistically you could max the contest (11.5m) without spending .

maybe he did turn a new leaf and decided to stop spending? Or didn’t like it was for Damien Priest?

let’s hope that I don’t see him in top 100 anymore (lol)

 

[Near]

DSP's endless struggle to place higher than some saudis and oil magnates. This is so sad.

Wait for the next paid event.

That's the weird thing though, they're not. He's struggling because he's an upper-middle-class guy spending 50% of his income, competing against poor white trash spending 700% of their income.

Yeah if you look at the doxxes sweet deranged Nigel proves most are simple looking folks. They aren't flying in private jets or snorting cocaine off of expensive prostitutes while doing pulls.
One guy that stood out for me in particular was the cop from a couple guilds ago. A fucking cop was gambling on multiple websites, was recognized as a VIP and had wins in the tens of thousands. Now think how much you need to spend to see wins that big, and then how much the average bumfuck nowhere cop makes a year.
He's fighting against people poorer than him, but since he lacks credit now he can't dab on them as hard as his spending is hard capped by the daily tips.

 

[Kosher Dill]

but since he lacks credit now he can't dab on them as hard

I doubt he was whaling on credit. His cards were probably already maxed out before WWE Champions was even released.

 

[Pepper Jack]

Of course he was whaling on credit. Gambling addicts max cards and drain bank accounts chasing that high.

 

[Kosher Dill]

Yeah, but he's a moron. He probably increased his credit limit as high as they'd let him and maxed all the cards out before he ever gambled for the first time.
And we all know he doesn't keep money in his bank account.
