Hyah! All Fighter cards Bomb for 50% of their base Attack value when they attack, and have 50% increased Health.

I'll repeat it here....please stop starting BGEs and Rumbles at the same time, before anyone has had a chance to try out their decks with the adjusted stats.

Why? Haven't you been preparing your deck for days now? I have, and we have known the effects with plenty of time to figure it out. The last missing piece is the new combos, and those release the day before it starts. Rumbles have coincided with the start of some BGE's since the beginning of rumbling, and you just have to hit the ground running. Get with the program, having your deck ready to go from the start of every rumble has always been part of the challenge.

What? Is that 50 or 20 on health? Different number everywhere

Does Fry really need another OP combo?

Thanks for sharing, Groundhogboy. I've also seen feedback from the other side of this argument, though, with many players requesting they actually start at the same time. If anyone would like to share their thoughts here, please do!

Modchi - I would guess the other players would have meant they did not want the rumble to start 5 hours before the new BGE Would be good to have a couple of days at least of a new BGE for research etc (as the new combos only come out the day before usually) - 1 week would be ideal, but that would involve changing one of the schedules Browning

Good luck on getting 100’s everyone! To modchi; my only request is make the new combos available maybe a day sooner :) much love and respect to the whole team. Thanks for all you do.

I agree, I dont mind that the bge effect starts at the same time as rumble. Especially with the sudden influx of mythic characters, research is already atrociously slow. Just a few extra days with the new combos available is all that's needed imo

Worst BGE ever. Lousy +50% HP doesn't help at all. This rumble will be good only because armed is still active. The next one with fighter only will be meh.

While I agree that I learn to play my deck better with the benefit of experience, I don't mind the BGE and rumble starting concurrently. Everyone is operating with the same handicap, so it's fair. Plus, it's a factor that adds some variety into certain rumbles - who can master and/or refine their deck the quickest? I wouldn't necessarily want every rumble to start concurrently with a BGE, but it's only 1 out of 4, so no big deal in my book. > *Originally posted by **[podzaborom](/forums/727066/topics/1710920?page=1#12796475)**:* > Worst BGE ever.

While I agree that +50% HP doesn't help avoid damage, I don't agree that it's the worst BGE ever. On the contrary, I think it will be very interesting. The extra HP means it's going to be tougher to get control of the board. Meanwhile, a ton of bomb damage is going to make many matchups a bloodbath. Scores will be terrible and I love it. Not every rumble has to be set up for high scoring to be appealing. Come get in the muck with the warriors!

I agree with crimsontiger completely. I like it. Also, I started building my defense deck 2 days ago. Any good player using multiple decks anyway. My Rumble Defense deck is not used except for Rumble Defense. It was modified perfectly for the start of the rumble with all necessary new combos researched due to the research accelorators. This is a pretty easy concept with minimal planning needed.

Different number everywhere I was confused as well, but I've checked in battle and it's 50%. The in-game event description AND the [official thread](https://www.kongregate.com/forums/727066-general/topics/937322-current-upcoming-events-updated-aug-16) both state 20%, which is wrong.

I know its too late now modchi, but next fighter bge can eugene Belcher have a combo I have 5 quad of him shame cant use him :(

It's the same as if in sports, you had the playoffs followed by the regular season.
