Like the cards a lot. I love the extra finishers. Sometimes 12 moves aren’t enough when ur having a long match. Great art and stats. Thanks to whoever is responsible. Also, a really stacked set, so hats off to whoever signed these guys. Walter !!!!!!

I got the set today! I really like the different finisher charts some guys have.
As a huge Dominic Garrini fan I was kind of worried how his card would be done since he's only had a few Evolve matches and up until recently his matches were squashing enhancement guys & more recently he's been in some tag matches with the rest of Catch Point. But he's mainly been Stokley's bodyguard. I think Vegas did a great job statting Dom at the strength level he should be at in Evolve currently while including his move-set I'm used to seeing in his AIW & Alpha-1 matches.
From a quick look at the cards only thing I would've done different would be on Walter's card. "heavy chops - 2" I would've done "heavy chops - 3 Add 1". That guy is a killer with those chops! Lol

Lol In addition to his EVOLVE matches (some of which as you said were squashes in the preliminary matches,) I looked at some of Garrini's matches in some other feds (including I think at least 1 or 2 AIW matches.) Definitely an offense with lots of jiu-jitsu. Glad you like the cards!

I got my cards today in the mail along with the new LOW set. As I was putting my new cards into their protective sleeves, I was also watching CZW's Best of the Best 17 from last weekend and Matt Riddle won his first round match via his BROSTONE.

One of the trickiest things when we stat out cards is getting that balance. As for finishers especially on the indy cards....guys will win with stuff all the time that's not their finisher (and have their finisher countered multiple times as well) so it can be tricky to decide...is that a finisher or a level 3 move he's covering for a pin. (In fact I've used moves that wrestlers have covered though not won as level 2 moves) When I did Private Eye...the only match I found him getting a pin...was with a move that was not his finisher...so it's a challenge. So I'm also good with multiple finishers/charts even though I use them less than Vegas but the cards I usually do rarely warrant them. Troy, I think you do a really good job on the cards you stat! In general, regarding multiple finishers, I typically only use them when the wrestler himself actually has current multiple finishers which is not unusual in Indy wrestling. For example, i was able to get in contact with James Drake and he told me he had 3 current singles finishers (which are the 3 listed on his card) so I wrote that finisher chart on his card to include them all without greatly impacting his card strength by using too many of the 6 spots on Level 3 Offense for singles finishers. That way the card can be scored accurately and remain balanced while including even more of his offense. Right now I am working on another set soon to be announced by Filsinger Games. The two wrestlers I have started writing rough drafts for only have 1 finisher as they only have one current finisher.
