[SF: Duel] - After 2 GRUELING MONTHS.... IT FINALLY HAPPENED! AHHHHH! WHAT A DAY!

[@Arcalite]

Congrats man you got the very first special summon character they brough out months ago to a useable level! How exciting.

[@PayneBlade]

Lol I sense the sarcasm is strong in you young one 🤣

[@Arcalite]

@@PayneBlade Guilty, I'm happy to see you happy fr though.

[@lamhuynh85]

Congrats mate, really happy for you. Luckily all the hard wor and dedication paid off very well. Enjoy Akuma at SSS. Cant wait to see him in action

[@PayneBlade]

Ty bro! I appreciate the love. Excited to use him

[@Oktobyr]

Grats! I'll live vicariously through you as mine sits 1 copy from SS+ ugh... the grindddddddd...

[@PayneBlade]

Haha ty bro and gl!

[@charminderx105-le2rn]

This game is quite FTP, if you have some luck. I started the 2.5 months ago and got an almost SSS Bison(2 more) & S+ Akama (I am $1TP) with 10 SSS+ fighter at lv283.

[@santiago0470]

Congratulations on getting your Akuma SSS , I also save from the begging for Akuma everything, a finally got him yesterday to SSS, and was able to put hi to SSS +5 , 6 cars, sp 30 , and his equipment and feels really good after so much waiting and saving.

[@PayneBlade]

Congrats bro! He must be doing great for you then!

[@santiago0470]

@@PayneBlade he is been doing really good 👍, wort the waiting.

[@myopinionnotyours]

I have bad luck bc I watch you have all the good luck 😂😂😂. But I shall keep watching😂

[@PayneBlade]

lol so your bad luck is giving me good luck!?? Keep watching!

[@kosaku_kq5601]

Congratulations on the large win for your F2P account, Payne👍. While I'm considering focusing on a character like Akuma or Evil Ryu next time for practicality's sake, yesterday morning I spent the 240 tickets on Vergil. It felt good getting him S+ with that amount as I'm a fan of Devil May Cry especially Vergil so I knew it was time to go all in. I don’t like the developer's practice of how they handle collaboration characters with short limited releases to never return to bank off of FOMO, but I enjoy the game outside of the monetization. I understand it's not practical to summon for a collab unit as they're bait, more of a collection unit really but they got me good with flaunting one of my favorite Capcom characters I admit. I know my results were lucky in comparison to folks with more tickets spent for the unit with less copies, so I'm grateful as well. I'll just harvest all the tickets I can get from this event (35 currently) then aim for two more dupes(I say aim but really hope and pray for more power and motivation) to get SS at the very least to unlock his FS. Anyway have a great rest of your day with your SSS Akuma.

[@PayneBlade]

Hey man if u are a fan and you wanted to get Vergil thats all good! If you can get him to ss even u got a powerhouse units. They do use collabs as whale bait but it doesn't mean u can't enjoy them

[@kosaku_kq5601]

@@PayneBlade That's one hell of a positive takeaway, thank you for that. A little optimism goes a long way.

[@KatoSento]

Nooooo, they didn’t! They did not just said “Supposed to get once every 6 months” the game isnt even 6 months old, so they really are screwing us 😧😮‍💨

[@damiensileven5750]

my boy it brings a tear to ny eye, diamond akuma, the satsu no feels my boy the satsu no feel's.

I felt the same way after finally getting him to SSS jus on Wednesday, great day

[@PayneBlade]

Belated congrats bro!

[@DonGpeezy]

@@PayneBlade thank you! Appreciate the content on this game , it def helps

[@EronZalez]

Congrats, bro, that's AMAZING! Unfortunately I'm disorganized and weak, so I spent all my tickets pulling for Vergil, so I'm once again disheartened by everything, lol

[@PayneBlade]

lol i'm sorry man, hopefully gets better and focus (as the rock would say)

[@andrebailey5058]

I wanna thank my cat ,I wanna thanks the trees for giving me oxygen 😂 congrats man

Especially the trees during this wildfire smog 🙏🏻

[@_Nephaelim]

Nice work! I have a few more to go. My Akuma is at SS. Cheers... dood!

[@ShinyTuga]

I'm still 6 away with all free tickets spent + a few more from that satsui grant but at least I made it to SS, incredible luck man, congrats

[@imjustacoolboy]

Yoooooo congratz! im also one copy away from SSS akuma f2p . hopefully ill get it this event

[@dragoniota]

congrats that is insane. I still only have A+ Akuma and A+ E Ryu. Been mostly pulling for E Ryu but constantly gotten shafted. LOL

[@Kyoi_no_Hado]

Hahahaha that is soooo dope!!! Even more happy for you as it's your F2P account. I'll do a similar vid once I get my Evil Ryu to SSS. I just wonder when that would be as I'm only on S lol. Still congrats Payne!!!

[@PayneBlade]

haha ty bro! GL! still a little to go but gonna be hella excited for u when it happens!

[@Kyoi_no_Hado]

@@PayneBlade Thanks man. Can't wait.

[@Kyoi_no_Hado]

After a month and 2 weeks, I finally got my E Ryu to SSS, and then 2 dupes in Divination after 3 attempts.

[@Demented38]

Congratulations bro, you daring me to start summoning for singles😂, because I have BAD LUCK😂

[@PayneBlade]

LOL it's worked for me! I'm just saying it doesn't hurt!

[@Demented38]

Yeah, screw it, I'm doing everything singles. When Sagat first came out, it stole from me 70 tickets & 50k gems for 1 copy, and that's just the beginning of my story🤦‍♂️😭😂😂

[@Demented38]

My guy, I just pulled the ex move on my 7th pick🥳. Had 12 ex scrolls 💯

[@djinn8175]

LOVE IT !! im switching to single pulls right now. I need 5 copys for akuma still

[@SkyDizzle]

Forgot to thank your bed for giving some good sleep when pulls go bad 🤣

[@prodigyy8]

Congrats!!

❤️

[@Phoenix_KDE]

That's what's up! Man I'm close too. I need 3 more Akuma drops for SSS 😤😤😤

[@itayitzhaki3569]

I just got my t cammy to sss I have been waiting for this a long time since I have been accumulating her cars and I have 4. Moreover I need three more akumas to get him to sss and I have him with 6 cars waiting for him🎉🎉🎉 F2p Love your videos❤ Congratulations on your sss akuma 🎉🎉🎉

[@redcloud0]

Congrats! He’s my favourite unit and I got him maxed out😏

[@mxdmxd111]

Hey Payne congrats and well deserved! I also just got akuma today with 3 cars and FS 30, however, feel he's a little lacklustre. My fblanka seems to do more damage then him on bosses so I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong. It would be great to hear your thoughts on akuma once you've played around with him. Once again congrats and keep doing what you're doing. Much love from down under ❤

[@PayneBlade]

Hey bro it depends on the boss completely. Multiple bosses f Blanka does better. Single bosses akuma dominates

[@mehboob9101]

Your vids gives us hope that these things are possible f2p im not saying this to put pressure on you but just this that youve saved alot of people spending thier food money on this.

[@yuchenfan886]

Lol！Congrats！I am soooo jealous！I would have been 2 copies of E Ryu away from a SSS E Ryu，if I didn't spend 50 tickets for Akuma at very beginning… Now I still need another 4 copies，hopefully I can get some luck from this video！

[@DoctrineAsmista]

Congratulations Payneblade!! you finally made it bro 🎉🎉

[@PayneBlade]

Thank you! 😁

[@Cwildyoutube]

LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@PayneBlade]

GOOOOOOOOOOOOO (imma continue it cause I am happy)

[@xLevveLx]

Congrats... Seeing this shows that the f2p grind is long. But still not Impossible and worth it!

[@Johndoe-jc9ex]

Congrats Payne ❤. I really don't mind the grind for 5 or 6 months, I only hate the time limited fighters MGK, Dante..etc . Cause no matter how much you grind for them you won't get these powerhouse fighters. I'm okay with legendary fighters being purchasable only. Think about it, wales would spend to get them maxed whether it's time limited or not, Just to complete with each others . So why time capping collab units if there's going to be another power creep?

[@PayneBlade]

Ya wish they had these collab units around always. It's a damn shame it's such whale bait

[@kimaarongoh5571]

Congratulations....I wish I have luck like you..

[@ljross2279]

Nice dude! I'm still four away so a little jelly :')

[@miniramptricks1986]

I've had every single summon card you can get since it began and have 7 less copies to sss and on that note I think I'm gonna have to call it a day with this game. if I don't see u soon I'll see u on the moon. Take care payne

[@Kelchin]

Yooooo that’s awesome!!! Congratulations! 🎉 I recently got my Akuma too lol I left him at SSS. Im focusing on Sagat now lol. Loooong time haha. Bruuuh and then you pulled double car?!? Brokennn haha Having a great myself! Going home after a long week of traveling for work ❤ Question: is it worth summoning 1 div ticket at a time? Any be edits from using 10? I know some games the data mining shows that rates change. Do you anything about this? I’m just curious. Cheers brother!

[@PayneBlade]

haha thanks bro! Nah it's just a placebo effect. no difference between single and multi lol. Have a great weekend and travel safely back home!

[@MAVERIK02]

I think they should do collabs on rotation. Disabled on new collab events

[@PayneBlade]

Agree! Keep events but keep them in rotation

[@HurtBoX84]

Hell yeah bro🎉

Congrats man I just got mine to SS.

[@crashthelegend]

I am new to the Gotcha game, but I see the game as an RPG. It is designed for the grind, and you should feel happy when you make a considerable achievement. The pay-to-win route is there because those people have the resources with currency. I see this game as a retail store; you can walk in for free and pay for the product you like. In this scenario, you play for free and buy a product if it fits your needs. The only difference is that there is no return policy if you don't like what you buy. This game is like the real world; you spend money to save time because your time is valuable. The most valuable resource an individual can give is their time.

[@13e0w0lf]

gratz man, i am missing 2 akumas on my account for sss

[@jblnnn]

Finally! im 4 away from E Ryu SSS, and i got 2 akumas, a dante and a Vergil for collection

[@Oluwabamiyo]

I spent god knows how many tickets on akuma and e.ryu as f2p but only got 2 copies of each, and I spent some more tickets on dante just to get a single copy, but then everything changed this week when I saved up 100 tickets for vergil and managed to pull 7 copies. The luck has really turned around. Hopefully I can get at least one more copy to get him to SS.

[@darthkaranus]

Hey Payne, congratulations on getting Akuma to SSS. Very happy for you. I have a question, will you now push Akuma to SSS+5 immediately or will you go for Sagat and get him to SSS first?

[@PayneBlade]

Pushing to sss+5 bro. Want to unlock substitute and use akuma as main dps

[@darthkaranus]

@@PayneBlade Thank you for explaining. Your character overviews really help in planning what new units to develop.

[@discgolfer08]

Quick question.... how did you get the "smart awaken" button. I don't have it and have to do all my awakens manually

Oh u just do quick Awakening and once u have enough to go another rank it will show smart awaken

@@KeitaroNatsu haha ya it's something I think I may do as well considering main account has e Ryu almost at sss (1 more). So I'll be saving for both

Payne, did you buy those 3 tickets in the general store each day with your resources on this F2P account? I am just curious bc I am a month behind you on my main account and being f2p myself, I need 4 more copies of Akuma in order to sss him and am wondering if I should buy those tickets as a f2p player?

[@PayneBlade]

Every day bro as an experiment but only after I got 15 sss units

[@phearlas8964]

@@PayneBlade I have 20 sss units and my goal was to get 18 so I could do all three elemental supreme fist towers with sss teams. I finally completed all three teams a couple weeks ago. For someone in my shoes, would you advise me to use my resources to chase finish Akuma, or should I continue to focus all of my resources on Sagat, which is only s atm? Akuma is ss+ as of this morning actually. You're the best and thanks!!
