Bug in Trials or is this intentional?

As you can see from added screenshots I already defeated the shocking state of trials once but haven’t 3-star it. So I’m eligible to play it on automatic.
Since then I wasn’t able to clear it on this stage once more. I get defeated in first stage EVERY SINGLE TIME. I used available boosters and stuff and leveled up skills (not to the max, but I did). I tried different team combos, nothing works.
What kind of game logic is this to win once and then never again? How should I improve toons when I have to fall back to prior stages again and again and again? I try a certain amount of time but if nothing works I just fall back to the prior stage to get accounted for the daily quest.
It seems even to get worse if I improve skills. Even if I don’t raid it (due to ViP0) shouldn’t it be a reliable win after the stage was defeated once?
And spare your comments about leveling and improving heroes. On my player level there’s only so much can be done about it :wink:.

Looking at it objectively, if you beat it once but lose every other time… it seems more like you got lucky with the RNG the 1 time you were able to beat it, especially if it was only with 1 star.

I experience it also…

I can beat it 1-3 times then in 4th or 5th… it will get harder :slight_smile: I think, thats the logic for it…

1st try = very easy
2nd try = easy
3rd try = medium
4th try = hard
5th try = very hard

But when you hit a 3 star… its a good feeling, just use raid haha

I agree with @StinkyHead, if you do 3-star it. Just use the video boosters and raid the trials.

Looking at this logically, you have 3 star level 76 P2s facing 4 star level 80 P2s. They’re stronger than you, period. It’s more a surprise that you won even once than that you get wiped in the first round later.

Not entirely true, two are 4 stars and two are equipped with discs (fully skilled). But if that’s the way you want to look at it sigh

Not true at all. The right lineup will beat higher power any time. I can take a 40k power team and beat a 60-70k power team lineup, maxed, no problem. You have to know the counters and the skills you are matching together.

Seems more like you just got very lucky first time.

There is an element of RNG in every battle. And given the opposition has a Dash RNG can play a huge role. He can very quickly wreck you if he targets the likes of Zurg instead of Ralph.

I remember a while back trying to 3 star an impossible trial. (probably before I had adequate power to do it)

The first time I did it, I got lucky and 2 starred it.

It took me a week of upgrades & retries before I could 3 star it. Often lost and couldn’t even register a 1 star.

Yes but in trials you have a limited selection for your team, so if you don’t have toons available that can counter And that you have worked on, theres not much you can do

Uh yeah but you can still upgrade the toons available to make a decent team. I’ve had to focus on certain toons to get them leveled enough to survive trials in a more difficult mode. The point is strategy. If the toon’s counter is not available, then that’s where you have to figure out what you need to beat that team. You don’t need a counter for every single hero and multiple heroes counter again multiple others. There’s not just 1 counter for every toon.

Which exactly? If you don’t mind to share oc

I think you’re losing the point of this post. This isn’t about general strategy, We are talking about their specific situation. OP’s toon are somewhat low level, if they had the means to upgrade toons whenever they needed to, they would most likely already have done so. If you look at the picture provided and at the rest of the toon options, they are using the only ones they can that would have a chance.

Hi give up. I raised skills, I pushed Felix and this blonde tomboy I can’t remind the name of and nothing changed. It works once and then it don’t. Even if I raise skills during the tries. Sometimes it gets even worse if I raise skills.
I think it’s broken and not worth the time I’m putting in to get to the next stage. I can’t get the rewards from the next stage. I’m two stages below where I’m supposed to be. This is just stupid game play if you force me to max some toons I use only for this part of the game. No strategy behind this. Just pure greed on dev’s side.

Its not broken, try taking it off auto, use the skills use the correct teams, Did you pass your drivers test the first time? if you didn’t did you cry to the instructor that the pedals were in the wrong spot and the gear shift is broken? no… you would have tried again… and again

Nope, I’m done. It’s broken.
Nearly same result on S5 where my toons I’m using are P4 and fully skilled. Even there I can’t three star it to raid it.

It isn’t broken, and being difficult isn’t a cash grab. Looking at your team, you have no support heroes, which are usually critical for a functional team. Of course, the only support hero is Woody, so I’d build him up.

There’s this thing called “Team Synergy / Composition”. Every character can work well with each other if they are put together. Here are some examples:

  • Woody and Zurg: Woody heals and boosts the attack speed, Zurg gets healing at every hit and is more efficient.

  • Mike and Sulley: Sulley scares the team, Mike does a whole team damage and stuns them.

There’s a lot more Team Synergies, so try to put this into thought.


I can see from your earlier screenshots that all of your Heroes are maxed with the exception of Genie, Alladin and Buzz. Try upping them one at a time so that your team has diverse Skills. I don’t if they are still the same as you posted 2 weeks ago.

  • Genie can heal, stun, grant energy and invincibility

  • Alladin can distract the enemy team with his Purple Skill and dodge with his Blue and Green Skills

  • Buzz can stun with his Green Skill, push back with his Blue Skill, and deal extra damage to backline enemies with his Purple Skill.

The difficulty I tried to accomplish brings Mr. Incredible as an opponent in EVERY STAGE. This is not a balanced game play. I don’t mind parts of the game being challenging. What I mind is when you manged to finish it once you should be able to finish it the 2nd, 3rd and 4th time.
I’m not a beginner, I play Dragon Soul (sold by PerBlue
thank god ), I played Portal Quest (ruined by PerBlue) and I still play Disney Heroes (hopefully won’t be ruined by PerBlue). So I know a thing or two about team compositions and synergy effects.
Challenges are not about this. Challenges should make the grind a little bit easier. But in the current state it’s the opposite.

It WAS actually a bug. This has cost me weeks and weeks in game progress where I missed out on dearly needed badges. This should be quantified and compensated.
