I’m always interested to know who has clean victories of Andre in this game.
Andre has lost via pinfall or submission to John Tolos, Greg Valentine and Harley Race in my fed. That’s it. He’s been dq’d a few times and has been on the losing side in a tag match (but never pinned in one.)

I rarely ever use him, and I'd never use him as a regular.

As others have said, I use him typically to help out other babyfaces. I bring him in about once a year if that. He has not lost a match yet for me. (His one technical loss was being eliminated in a Rage in The Cage Match against Kevin Sullivan and the rest of the House of Humperdink. Based on the rules of that match, the loss was not via pin or submission, so I can say he's undefeated.) I don't plan to have him challenge for any titles at this point but I'm not opposed to it if it fits a storyline and the timing is right.
His cards (B&W and color) were definitely designed to be used as a special attraction, based on his time in the '70s and early '80s. But if you want to use him on a regular basis, as always, it's up to you, Promoter.

I've used Andre full time and he was the world champion. I feel he's lost more times than he should in my fed

He’s been dq’d a few times and has been on the losing side in a tag match (but never pinned in one.) I haven't incorporated him into my Legends Fed yet but when I got the Expansion Pack #10 I matched him up against everyone else in the set. Angelo Mosca was the only one who was able to beat him by pinfall. When I do bring him into my Fed I'll treat him like everyone else and if he manages to earn championship matches then so be it. I kind of want him to win some gold just to see how long he can hang on to it. |

I've had Andre come in as the office's muscle on numerous occasions and a couple of times he's lost in three or less moves.
Andre gets a big level 3 attack to start, opponent rolls down-3 (lv) to tumble out of the ring, as Andre goes to follow them out the opponent recovers, rolls back into the ring and hits their finisher only for the Giant to roll SNAKE EYES. That scenario has played out about a handful of times for me. I'd have about a quarter if I got a nickel for each time it has happened.

When I used the black and white card he was used more for special attraction matches and such and I would send him out to one of my other feds just to keep things fresh for Andre. When we got his colour card that is when things changed a bit and I use him more regularly. He is teamed up with Jimmy Snuka and they are doing okay in the tag team division but Snuka is the one losing the matches for them either by getting DQ'ed or getting pinned. Their wins come from Andre most of the time. I am slowly (because they are not winning matches) to set them up with a few matches with Bundy and Studd but while they are dominating Snuka and Andre have been on a slow ride toward getting into the tag team gold picture. I think maybe if I bring Captain Lou in as their manager that might give them a better push and keep Snuka from getting into trouble and costing them the match.
I will at some point return him to the singles division and he will go make his way towards gold. While he doesn't need it. I kinda like that Mortal Kombat tower concept of having to clamber to the top of the competitive heap to face the Giant on top of the mountain. It would be cool if at some point we were able to get a heel version of Andre in Promoter Prime.

I use Andre as a touring attraction--with some stops lasting longer than others. I cannot find myself booking him long term in one territory. He is far too dominate and the matches are rarely competitive.

I did give Andre a few title shots years ago, and he came frighteningly close to winning. Then I declared that, because of his health or part time status (can’t remember which) he couldn’t hold any belts.
There’s another idea though. Give him his own title; something like the Giant Slayer Title. Beating Andre gets you the belt and bragging rights. But every time Andre defends his belt, he gets a bonus to his pay.
