    i'm 3 for 6 on Kluber today so far. JD, Dee, and Zobrist. So i'm 3 for 3 on players I didn't want or need! Thanks Glu :)

    My feedback:

    WOH is getting progressively less and less fun.  The premium XP is nice, but that can be obtained regularly in CvsC too.  The difficulty seems to vary considerably throughout the day, and typically the gold spent to beat 5-10 results in a player that is only very temporarily helpful for bonus points and requires an additional significant investment to be fully effective.  

    I've cycled twice and I'm just meh about going any more at this point.  It needs something different, it's losing luster.

    @Wicked0Wildcats same here. I am done with this game as it has lost all it's appeal to me. For me though mostly it's the fact that GLU won't spend the extra $$$ combating the hackers and loaders while trying to get us to spend more on these pointless "specials".
    What's the point of cycling and getting the top players when the guys who somehow never run out of gold and always pull the top players do the same for next to nothing? If GLU was serious about combating these gold loaders and GG hackers they would but it's cheaper for them to let it go on I guess.

    I finished up a little bit ago, 6 wins in 18 tries, my 2nd highest amount of wins in a single WoH, I didn’t get much though, 2 Dees, Zobrists, and JDs each.  The Zobrist looked interesting then I remembered I’m in plat even my 445 Camo Gennett is comparable to him outside of CvC thanks to late innings skill.  I did get my LL Lindor capped and while his power is lower than I’d like for an elite player his hit rating is actually insane.  He’s my 2nd best RH and 3rd best lefty.  Do I really need to level any more bats?  I have 3 left, 2 right, and now 1 switch hitter.

    4x JD and 3x Zobrist...and equally boring is I got mostly pxp when I'm desperate for lxp... typical I guess...had a video restart with kluber for the first win, after that never lost to him. Had a couple of losses to Diaz due 9 consecutive garbage throws and random similar problems a few times with other guys but overall pretty straightforward day with disappointing reward results.
    It's all done with mirrors

    @JdotChristopher I was chasing Ben too! He's soooo good for CvC! switch hitter and always double boosted man! I got him, took him to p7, and pulled him three more times to cap! I love it when things work out! haha

    I hear ya.  Any time I scoop up somebody I want, I end up pulling them the next 3 cycles too lol it’s always funny and annoying at the same time.  I got JD and Penguin all of my cycles.  And the last thing I needed was another 3B guy!

    Same here. Was really pumped cuz I went 4 for 6 vs Kluber, but was disappointed by the picks I received. Already had JD and my team is jailed, so 2x Zobrist does me absolutely no good...👎🏻

    I got 2 JDs, 2 Zobrists, and 2 Gordons... 6 cycles is nice. But not when you get shafted on the picks. 
    From Wentz he came, he shall be returned!

    10% odds for the top 3....6 cycles and no hits is disappointing (5x for me) but not surprising.

    @nym5fan I'm hoping it's like last week and it's the LL Votto...yeah, fairly unrealistic. :)

    That would be nice! Even nicer would be Holiday Teddy :) lol

    And I am totally aware they would never offer that before giving everyone ample time to purchase him outright and make all the money they can off of him. I am simply saying that would be my dream and that it would be even nicer than LL Votto :)

    Actually, it would kinda suck if someone just bought a player and then won them in WOH lol.

    Dumb... I don't like this setup, even if it guarantees your rewards. I mean yes, I want a living legend, but not if literally everyone else has him too. What's the point?

    I'm guessing bonus hitter will be one of the weekend players.

    @JEDDDOGGY I know there are some that prefer this format, but I'm with you. There's no joy in having a player that will basically be on everyone else's roster. *sigh*

    By the looks of things, not everyone can or did cycle. It’s a nice reward for those who could beat Maricial-in my ipinion.

    Very true.  I know it *feels like* from these forums that everyone can cycle, but I would guess that the actual percentage of teams that can is 5% or so at the very most.  

    I'm in a full diamond club of all active players and including myself we have 2-3 cyclers at most in WOH.  I know there are hardcore groups that are much higher than that but there are also many, many casual groups without any cyclers at all.

    I think our club has between 6-8 cyclers on any given WoH event. @JEDDDOGGY can correct my if my guesstimate is off.
