If you don't have the roster or skills to do it, then it's not for you
I’m guessing that about 2% of the players have the “skills” you refer to to even have a a chance at this.
I’d love to see a video of you beating this, because they way you talk, you beat it.
Is not supposed to be easy. The difficult presented is somewhat what I was thinking it would be. People just had higher expectives or hopes about it.
Not saying is easy, because it sure is hard. Is the intention behind it. I was able to almost one-shot him, and I'm confident that I will succed in doing it at some point

Huh? Use your common sense big guy. You don't have to defend Kabam about literally everything. This is not about having the skills or roster, it's about common sense. What kind of common sense goes into making a 1.4 million health Silver Surfer with insanely niche nodes (need a consistent armor breaker or coldsnap immune) AND you can only use 4 star champions. 4 STAR CHAMPIONS. The last time I've upgraded a 4 star champion was a long, long time ago. And all of this for 3k 5 star shards?! Pathetic.
It's optional. You don't have to do it. They made a challenging quest to make us think outside the box. It's free to try and you can attempt it as much as you want. I tried it and after a couple attempts, for sure not going to waste my time on it. They said all along that this was supposed to be a very hard challenge.
Then make the rewards worth the effort. It should not be this hard for the SHOW UP difficulty. No one is going to show up unless they already spend thousands on the game.
Test of skill ? You have to be joking. You need the perfect counter. No matter what you do the health pool is going to take you so long with the lower damage that 4 stars do makes this frustrating to say the least. The challenge is supposed to be something that can be won eventually without spending units or resources. This is not a challenge it’s a slap in the face for each and every person that plays this game. I understand there will be people that will complete this content but the limits to which you put on this are beyond reasonable for anyone. I won’t even begin to mention the rewards for such a monumental task for such minimal return. As a member of this community and this game I love to play so much. It’s saddening to see how you have missed the mark yet again Kabam. Summer of pain is the correct title. Time for me to take a sedative and sit the summer of pain out.
This is correct. This is a participation event for that want to be a part of the Summoner Showdown, but don't feel comfortable competing in the Showdown qualifiers. It's a taste of what our Competitors are facing and is not meant to be easy.
It is still meant to be a challenge and a test of skill.
Test of Skill? A true and fair Test of Skill is something that shouldn't require players to bring in only Coldsnap immune champs to even survive the first few exchanges of the fight.

It is dissappointing to read this as me along with several other free to play players or less talented players were hyped to play the showup difficulty and earn the rewards. Gold becomes a scarce rescource for a free to play player and that 500k gold would have made a world of difference for me and many other players. Considering we had to wait an hour for this event to release, we were still looking forward to this event but we were greeted by a horrifying health pull and a few ridiculous nodes. Many of us would appreciate it if you could reduce the health to something like 190k hp.
This is nuts, I literally spent an hour staring at a white box waiting for the showdown, I then used up most of my gold to rank up my 4*'s , went in feeling pretty good. Came out getting destroyed by Silver Surfer in a minute. And if this is the easy difficulty then... Thought this would be a more inclusive event.
It's a Tournament. It's supposed to be this way. Not a fun, little challenge. Everyone competing is in the Tournament. So, yes. It's meant to be this hard.
The more i play these recent event the more I'm skeptical about the direction of the game in regard to the road map, hows this even fun or interactive, i really hope the next game Kabam release is not like this because i wouldn't even download it, Im watching seatin one of the top MCOC youtubers struggle with this so imagine regular everyday players which is 85 % of the player base, this is how u put the FU in fun.
A test of skill would be being able to bring whatever champ you want against him. You can’t. It’s not a test of skill. It’s a test of your roster and how much revives you have.
Isn’t that why they have the tournament then? Who isn’t going to be doing the tournament who would do the show up instead?
Who is this made for? There’s a giant difference between getting “a taste for how hard it would be” versus it being almost the exact same difficulty, for extremely laughable rewards.
The people who have the skill and ranked up a 4 star who could handle this WOULD ALREADY BE DOING THE TOURNAMENT. The show up should have been for those who couldn’t do that.
Whoever thought of this and designed it is very confused on who the player base is or who it was targeting. And clearly didn’t read the roadmap a month ago. I’m honestly kind of baffled at this and the responses from the moderators are only making it worse.

Okay, so I was mistaken. If I am to understand correctly, this is still on the same level. For fun means it's not being marked for the Tournament. Not that it would be easy.
I'm an endgame player. Everything is 100% and imo, this is not even worth it for anyone. 1.4 million health, with a coldsnap node and you restrict it only to 4 star champions? Also, what are the rewards? 3k 5* shards? Yeah, if it were like 7k. It would be worth it. Other then that, this was an utter waste of time. Just my opinion.
Goes to show you guys still have no idea how to create fun content that is both challenging and dependent on skill. You guys think stacking nodes on top of nodes is a fun time. It’s fun designing but not playing against
I have the skill to do it, I did it with venom and CAPIW, but it was not enjoyable. It was repetitive and boring
Seems like grandmaster fight was just an outlier in your game design
I was hyped and waited an hour after the promised time to get disappointed

Test of Skill? A true and fair Test of Skill is something that shouldn't require players to bring in only Coldsnap immune champs to even survive the first few exchanges of the fight.
Isn't that the true test of skill really? He's already said if you can armor break him, you don't have to worry about Coldsnap. Read the nodes and think outside the box.
There will probably be a ton of these threads already but I thought that Silver Surfer was pretty good. The coldsnap node looks imposing but then armour break can completely shut it down.
Personally I used a team of, Dr Doom (main champion), Anihullus (synergy), Dr Ock (synergy), Mr Fantastic (synergy) and MODOK(synergy)
I used 1 revive and a 20% champion boost, 15% attack, 20% health, 8% mystic special boost. So overall pretty good.
Edit: note that I didn’t spend units on any of these boosts. Most players have tons lying around like me right?
If you are thinking of doing the same you don’t really need any synergies other than Mr Fantastic. If you use him start the fight with a medium-heavy and from there try to have 100% uptime on the armour break.
For the rewards the difficulty wasn’t all that bad. For around 20 of these fights is the LOL easy path, generally LOL is considered to have a good rewards:difficulty ratio.
For 20x the effort LOL gives, 2 5*s, a 5* AG crystal, 4 T2A and a few T4CC
20x the rewards for this quest is 60k 5* and 10 mil gold. That doesn’t even factor in the additional 6k 5* for every 3 of these you do (it would equal out to nearly 78k 5*)
Overall pretty solid and a good fun challenge. Wonder who will get the first solo?

Think outside the box? In what way? Literally the only requirement for this fight is skill and a cold snap immune champ. Colossus is going to own the leaderboard since he’s the hardest hitting coldsnap immune champ.
I was hoping show up would be more ftp friendly so everyone can participate this is LOL fight with 4*s and BS nodes its a whale challenge. maybe 15-20k pi and 4 nodes that are less restrictive so its achievable without maxed niche 4*s and players with average skill instead of the same fight with bad rewards and item use. cause everyone loves spending revives on mid amounts of 5* shards

This is a participation event and meant to be a taste? Agreed. Then this could still be challenging for the low rewards even if Surfer had half the health. It's a ridiculous amount of health if you are going to restrict us to only 4* champs. The time to reward ratio is way off.

No that isn't. IF HES ARMOR BROKEN HE CANT APPLY COLDSNAP. Jesus you people need to learn to read.
Making it hard is one thing but making it where you literally have to use 10 revives of more for a fight is just ridiculous, i would love to see one of Kabbam staff solo this fight or what was their testing like because no way you have several top youtubers /mcoc players struggle so hard on just one fight this make abyss a walk in the park, think im lying go watch seatin live stream he's been doing that fight for almost 20 mins now :-1 . Skill has nothing to do with this fight skills is where u can bring in a champ play around with it and solo a fight base on skill, alot of ppl solo the champion fight base on skill or collector but there's no skill in this smh way to go kabam
It's a Tournament. It's supposed to be this way. Not a fun, little challenge. Everyone competing is in the Tournament. So, yes. It's meant to be this hard.
The showdown difficulty is the tournament the show up difficulty is not. What’s so hard to understand about that?

This is the big boi challenge, it's meant to find the best of the best. The average and even the highly skilled are expected to struggle.
I brought Doom, Human Torch, Capt'n IW, IMIW and Sorceror Supreme. I did 15% damage... on freaking SHOWUP DIFFICULTY!!!
The rewards are 500K gold and 3000 5* shards — get that mess out of here bro — STRAIGHT CLOWN FIESTA, 🤡
Personally I used a team of, Dr Doom (main champion), Anihullus (synergy), Dr Ock (synergy), Mr Fantastic (synergy) and MODOK(synergy)
I used 1 revive and a 20% champion boost, 15% attack, 20% health, 8% mystic special boost. So overall pretty good.
