Is anyone finding that the Gladiator species of New Beginnings is falling short? How are they doing for y'all in their feud against Eugenics? They are doing absolutely spit for me.... and I am wondering what the addition of Wolf in 2123 will do for them. How about Strafe? How is she doing for all of you? For me- Disaster is the number one contender for the Heavyweight Title and he'll face Endgame. Yes, he's a force to reckon with.... but Paralyze and Rage as a tag team are not that strong. Rage has suffered multiple injuries at the hands of The Master Race in my Fed... and they just cannot gel. Lemme know what you think?

They have had so many loses in my fed especially to the Master Race on my last card I had them put it all on the line. If they could beat the Master Race they would be the new #1 contenders to Divided We Fall(the champs) and if they lost they would be exiled for a certain amount of time. They had the match and got smoked by Thraxx alone and Rage got pinned. Now they are gone for 3(game) months in hopes that when they come back they can get some wins. Also my red hot tag team champs got eaten alive by Endgame and Tauran for my tag straps in a 2 out of 3 falls match on the same card.

The Gladiators are dominant and they always have been. Please reread the instructions and make sure you are playing the game correctly.
In all seriousness, I think their competition is tougher than its ever been before. Monolith and the Master Race, Havoc in updated singles form. I think they are stronger opponents than W.A.R. (who I think is second).

I have said it before and I will say it again: The Gladiators will rule again.
Rage is going to come along. Trust me.

I'm still in 2120 but I'd have to agree. Havoc/Paralyze have a few tag title runs, but they haven't dominated the division and have some losses to lesser competition. Disaster had a terrible 2119, being dominated by Endgame left and right. 2120 he's seen some more success, but Kill Prey has won all their encounters and with Monolith soon to appear it doesn't look like 2121 will be any easier for the big guy.

Disaster is my favorite Gladiator in a long time. Seriously. Disaster actually held the GWF Title in my fed not long ago. He fended off Bloodline and Endgame (2120 here also). The guy is dominant in his own way.

Disaster has been awesome for me but I still think he needs an upgrade. Tom raised the bar with Endgame and Monolith and everyone else is now playing catch-up.

I have no doubt the Gladiators will eventually pull out of this slump. But for the present time, they are getting their butts handed to them every time they come out. They can hang with Master Race if they are at the top of their game, but when Monolith gets involved, it's just cruel. I like Rage and his card, but for some reason, the woes of the Gladiators all started when he replaced Havoc. When Havoc left, they were extremely dominant tag-team champs, but since Rage has come up, they have yet to break into the top three contenders much less win the titles. Big Dis, as he is affectionately nicknamed in my fed, carries the torch as the current Heavy Metal champ, but none of them are anywhere near the top of their respective divisions. After enduring two devastating team losses against the Eugenics Project this year, morale is wearing thin in the Gladiator camp.

The prob is that the Glads are still getting statted at one level but guys like Endgame and Monolith have broken the ceiling and the Glads need to move up to compete.

I'm hoping that no one moves up to the Endgame/Monolith level for a LOOOOOOOONG time. I don't want every main event guy to be a broken monster card. Disaster is fine where he's at. The Gladiators are not the dominant figures they once were in COTG lore, but with teams like DWF(2 main event caliber singles guys) and the Master Race(created to be the Glads equals at least), it would be harder to be at the top than in the past.

Disaster is the only good one of the bunch
Paralyze was better before his update
