-Duration 28 days
-One showdown lasts 4 hours
-1 free showdown
-3 starting tickets
-New tickets generate every 30 minutes
-Extra showdowns: 5 tickets for 1st, 10 tickets for 2nd, 15 tickets for 3rd etc.
-Utterly poor prizes

So, the only thing you can get from this season is basically chips, which isn't too bad for me since I haven't yet unlocked Traction Testground. You can start a new showdown every 4 hours, so if you keep starting new ones regularly, you should net a decent amount of chips. This season doesn't really encourage spending lots of tickets though, since even if you're doing poorly against an opponent, who cares you'll get a new one in 4 hours. And last season was 7 tickets for extra showdown that lasted 24 hours, now it's 5 tickets for one that lasts 4 hours. Not really worth it this time around.

EDIT: edited the extra showdown costs, thanks Teurastaja and bwestlie

Not all extra showdowns are 5 tickets, 3rd one costs 10 tickets. Not sure if it rises even more after that.

Thanks, I edited my original post. By 3rd one I assume you mean 3rd total, with 1st one being the free showdown...?-)

[Teu-ras-ta-ja]

Yes, 1st is free, 2nd 5 tickets and 3rd 10 tickets.

If it keeps rising with 5 for every showdown, I assume this is the counter-act people sandbagging the entire season, and then entering a bazillion showdowns and blaze all the way to legends.

Could be, I didn't want to test. I only started second showdown because I still had a showdown going with over 10 hours left.

Yes, 1st is free, 2nd 5 tickets and 3rd 10 tickets.

Yes, the cost will grow 5 golden tickets for every new showdown

Very disappointing.
As its called Halloween season, and since they gave as reward the pumpkin king outfit, i was really expecting to get my hands on the halloween mantis paintjob from last year bundle as 1st prize in the bunker... or at worst in a new bundle. nothing... As a collector of paintjobs, its frustrating to be honest.

As you said :

-Utterly poor prizes

Where is the paintjobs as reward in this season??

Where is the paintjobs as reward in this season??

If you don't see any paintjobs its because you already own them. hence 1st and 10th slots are empty and hence the fact : -Utterly poor prizes

its not the first time, it was already like that 2 seasons ago already iirc. its good for those who missed previous seasons but that's it.

Every time I see these new seasons lately, I am so thankful I no longer have to grind chips to do them. Might do a few casual matches just for grins (strategically desirable to build a stash of chips) , but alas the thrill is gone.

Whats up with giving us donuts when I already have all my bikes upgraded and dont need them? When I had been in this position before (after donkey upgrade and before AgentBike arrivial) the bunker had stopped giving out donuts.

PS: not gonna get my ticket stash with seasons like this.
