Completed 5/3 and failed last 3 attempts at 5/4, which is a regret without the main T rewards. It is indeed very difficult to play against all the event-paying managers with the support, so the premium purchase earlier does give extra returns in this 2nd event of the season.
Players given were only 5* & 7*. Former was sold immediately, and the latter would be a good sub until end of season. Nothing special. Would have been much better with another win.
Credit to where it is due for Nordeus with the new 5 free-trials. Difficulty is indeed up by a lot with the mixture of pve & pvp, but it is challenging and fun.
