Hello community!
Hope you are all having a wonderful Wednesday.

# **SWOLE CLUB/CHALLENGE**
I know there have been a lot of questions regarding Swole and its future. Currently we are reviewing the event, including both balance and feedback. Currently we do not have any further information about when and if the event will make another appearance. It will not be rotating immediately back after it ends. Please keep an eye out for future updates and send any feedback along to the following thread:
http://www.kongregate.com/forums/726779-animation-throwdown/topics/902051-feedback-thread-swole-club-and-swole-challenge

# **QoL Updates**
In the meantime! We have been working to review and address player suggestions and a few quality of life updates while we plan the next big content release.
Here are a few of the things I can confirm as **already completed**:
* Added Watts to deck screen
* Now you can recycle cards in decks that have Auto Deck turned on. It will automatically fill with a new card to ensure you have the minimum require cards.
* Power Card is now a filter option
* Coins added to the Arena Screen
* GTs added to adventure screen
* Challenge energy on individual challenge screens
* More card recycling options
Other additions/suggestions may also make it into this update, so keep an eye out for change logs in the Help Center or in the Technical Forums.

So will mythic Bob be available through stones after swole, like all the other mythics?
And please bring back swole and make it a monthly rotating event. It's fun and adds so much more replayability to the game.

I like swole, but I think doing all the upgrading every month would feel exhausting.
I think the upgrades themselves take too long as well. I have almost 80k gunshow tickets that I cant spend because it takes days to upgrade any of the skills I use. No use trying to advance unless I can improve the skills, so its just autoplaying on lower levels for days. I dont think i will be able to make it to the next milestone anyways since I cant upgrade the skills I need so I think I will be autoplaying for the next two weeks. If i dont feel engaged half of a month long event, then its not really ideal. I do really like the concept of it though.

Currently the rumble rankings are a joke because dead guilds were removed without shortening the rumble length.

Thanks for the updates, Shiny!
I'm hoping that the equipped deck display will get added soon where the "level / XP" display is currently since I doubt that anyone needs to know their level/XP info on a constant basis.
Then make it so tapping on the equipped deck display will allow for a quick change to another deck.

Please keep swole. It is something that is finally a real challenge mode with real strategy. Don't give us that once and yank it away!

What about all the gun show tickets we'll probably have left over? Can we trade straight up for golden turds?

Wow, one of the few times in life that I HATE being right!

I like the swole challenge. I was thinking kong would probably introduce 5 new mythics and rotate through them every month. Then eventually people could get those mythics. Now most of us will have worthless mythic Bob fragments forever.

Swole does need some adjusting but i would like to see it back offering a new mythic or just mythic random mythic stones even would be nice. The swole challenge would be improved by letting us use the extra arms to improve the upgrade times. So far i have to many arms and not enough time to upgrade the arms bonus gets way to high. The npc using swole bonus gets way to high around lvl 50 125% vs my 50% buffs i don't stand a chance.

You outta put some Swole speed-ups in, 'cause those are awful long training times when it comes down to it (esp. for the lower level players)...

I would really like the Swole challenge to continue soon. I am a F2P player and assumed I would not get Bob on this run. However the research times get a bit much and could be cut in half. We would be able to make quite a few level 7s or 2 level 10s. Or get rid of the ticket bonus after 250% because I don't want to wait days to not upgrade abilities. At least make my waiting worth while. Going from level 5 to 7 takes 5 days to upgrade 1 ability because I'm waiting 2 days for something I don't need.

Sure swole could use some tweaking especially training times. But on the whole, I liked the event. And it finally gave players away to earn mythic rather than just buying them. This needs to be a reoccurring event because no way can an average player in a card after the first time. But should be able to get a card after a couple of repeats. Sorry all the negative voices were louder, but don't let them drown out the happy voices.

Life is a pain, huh? ;) Event looks to be balanced at begin lvls, not from 40+ only. I'd like impossible fights at the 50+ lvls, you need to build your strategy

I actually like the difficulty. I just wish training times were shorter so that I could build my strategy. Right now I'm stuck because it takes days to do anything that would improve my deck.

As a lower level player, I love this event. Please don't take it away.

I'm loving swole and that it legitimately gets hard and takes quite a bit of strategy to build your deck and to choose the right heroes to upgrade in the time that you have. My biggest complaint is either training times being to long/to many pointless upgrades. I don't want to spend 5 days going from level 5 to level 7 for essentially 50% extra of an attribute because I'm already overloaded with gun show tickets I won't use because I don't have time. Offer some speed ups or something for it bare minimum but I really hope you bring it back!

I'm a fan of Swole Club. Even though the lvl 57 wall is kicking my butt, I like the new content to play and strategize for and the rewards are great. I would love for it to come back regularly so I have a chance to stack shards and get a Bob. It creates a lot of great discussion in our guild and taking it away indefinitely after we've been so excited about it for a month would be a major let down. #swole4lyfe

Any timeline on when we will see these QoL updates implemented in game?

I'd be fine with the training times if we could train more than one ability at a time. Would solve all the leftover Gun Show tickets issue as well.

This would be way better but I don't think they want us to get a bunch of level 10s. I would have so many heros researching. I think it would be great but will they.
