The new Challenge Stage for the iOS version of Injustice: Gods Among Us began today, and players have 16 days to complete it. The prize for fighting through the Challenge is a Gold level Deathstroke card in his Red Son attire. The card’s special ability increases attack speed by 5% for every Red Son card on teams.
Similar to the previous Challenge Stages, players will need specific cards. Without these cards players are not able to enter the Challenge Stages, and are forced to credit grind until the cards can be purchased.
Deathstroke Challenge Stage: Battle 1
For Battle 1, only Bronze level cards are allowed. Any of the Bronze characters can be used, and the opponents are low level. There are 12 fights, and the final team of Green Lantern, Lex Luther, and Cyborg are only at level 12. This should be a cake-walk for players.
Dr. Fate and Sandman appear in the background of all of the fights in this battle. When will they be available?
Deathstroke Challenge Stage: Battle 2
The second battle requires players to use Bronze or Silver cards, but Gold characters are not allowed. The enemies are slightly higher in levels, but still not too difficult for experienced tap-mashers. The final fight is against a team of Solomon Grundy, Sinestro, and Green Arrow, who are all at level 22.
Deathstroke Challenge Stage: Battle 3
The third round requires teams to have Cyborg. Because Cyborg does not offer any boosts to teams, consider using a Gold character that can annihilate the mostly Silver level enemies. Below, a team of Batman (25% strength boost), Regime Green Lantern (25% power regeneration) and Cyborg rolled through each team in an average of 30 seconds. The final fight is against the Silver level tandem of Wonder Woman, Solomon Grundy, and Sinestro.
Deathstroke Challenge Stage: Battle 4
Deathstroke’s hated nemesis, Green Arrow must be on teams for this round of battles. The Bronze Green Arrow will add a 5% strength bonus to teams, but the Silver Green Arrow does not offer any bonuses. Players should beware teams with a Knightfall Bane and a Silver Flash. This Flash card adds 15% speed to all attacks, and a lightning fast Bane can be a handful if team boosts aren’t up.
As a result, a team with Red Son Superman (25% strength boost) and Batman (25% strength boost) allowed the tough enemies to be flattened. Their combined 50% strength bonus brings each normal strike to around 1,000 damage.
Deathstroke Challenge Stage: Battle 5
The former emperor of Teth, Black Adam must be on teams for the final battle. The Red Son version of Deathstroke is the final opponent. However, a number of Gold level card-fighters Stand in the way. The Regime version of Wonder Woman is the biggest headache. Her special ability adds 5% power for every blocked attack. The best way to defeat her is to use a Regime Wonder Woman as well, don’t attack and just block, and then unleash a Justice Javelin to knock her out. If she is unavailable, then use a high-level brawler like Bane, Zod, or Doomsday. With brawlers, do not attack her. Let her pummel you, as this will get your card powered up quickly. Once you are fully powered unleash a unblockable move to eliminate her. In order to gain power faster than the enemy, use a Silver Green Lantern (25% power regeneration boost) on teams.
Last, Deathstroke is at level 18. Knock him out and his card is added to decks. His special ability offers a 5% speed bonus to attacks for every Red Son card on teams. Thus, his place is to turn slow strikers like Solomon Grundy into quick strikers like the Flash.
