WWE Champions General - Despite his claims, DSP is still spending thousands of dollars on the WWE Champions mobile game

[EmperorGoutatine]

What is the general consensus of how much he's spent on the game?

Tens of thousands. $40,000 for his current VIP level. $3000 on the most recent event. Probably thousands more at other times.

aww fuck, the FB algorithms found out about my KF research and think I actually want to play this piece of shit now:

Which League will you be in, Phil?

 

[Surly Muppet]

For the record, after making $2200 off the vest alone in the last 2 weeks, over $1k on his birthday, and with all credit card payments currently suspended due to the bankruptcy, Phil claimed today during the prestream that he needs tips urgently because he needs to pay his utility bills and condo dues 'before his Twitch payment comes in' on the 15th... which is in 5 days.

At this point, he must be spending like this on WWE Champions. There is nowhere else this quantity of money can be going in this time frame. He just had a banner 2 weeks and couldn't pay bills that he has clearly known about well in advance of these 2 weeks, nor can they hold on for 5 days until he gets a massive payout. I'm actually kind of surprised he trotted out the 'pay the bills' meme in this current state of affairs - he's already constantly blowing past his tip goals daily, but he is so insecure about income dipping that used that explanation despite it being obvious nonsense.

That... or this is actually true and his addiction is so out of control, he dumped all of that money into Champions and now genuinely needs that same income for the next 3 days to ensure he can pay the bills he ignored.

I genuinely believe it is this. Phil displays all the classic signs of someone with a gambling addiction. Rationalization, deliberate ignorance of reality, refusal to acknowledge the problem, compulsion to lie...it goes on and on.

I wonder if Kat is even aware.

 

[RockHawk]

I'd argue the most likely scenario is that he spent the money on champions, paid the bills, and is just looking for more money to blow on maintaining his placement during this event

 

[King Nutsack]

Latest event in WWE Champions adds another wrestler (Drew McIntyre) that I think is new to the game. Dave doesn't seem to have him yet but I'm sure he'll increase his roster soon.

Also worth pointing out that he's actually 2nd in his faction now, when I checked last week he was in 3rd. The ranking's done by total superstar "talent" which is 1,608,603 right now, I don't know the exact value before since I didn't highlight it but it was in the 1,56x,xxx range a week ago.

The screenshot above has uselessness at tier 80 is that like a guild level or does that really mean there are 7900 manbabies in groups of 100 that collectively spend more than DSP and 99 other manbabies in this dumb game?

Phil is in a guild where he can be top paypig.

He can't handle being in a guild of 100 paypigs that all spend like he does because then he wouldn't be special.

I'd say it is fairly likely that WWE Champions is not the only gacha game he's dumping money in to. Its just the only one we know about for sure.

I'm still convinced he was dumping into that Marvel Final Fight game where I found the account with the "TheyCallMeDSP" name. I wouldn't be surprised if he's still playing Dokken and/or Brave Exvius or something like them.

I think Dave was probably spending roughly the same amount of money across multiple gachas up until he 'got big' in his Champions guild.

After that I think he's probably stuck mostly to one game. But I wouldn't be surprised if he's whaled heavily in multiple before he found a group to be a 'guild leader' in. Since his clout there is tied directly to his spending he's probably focused on one game.

 

[King Daddy Telomerase]

With how much Phil has been grinding in the past 6 months, I think it's safe to assume he's only whaling on Champions lately.

We know Phil whaled hard in Supercard and Marvel. That's how these whales work, they can't control themselves spending big in every game to get that power they so deserve. It's not even about the game or if these things are worth it, they just want to wave the biggest e-dick proudly. That Mark Rangley pasty dude who I posted earlier playing Champions for 9 hours is a great example in action, he often mentions his disturbing addictions and with those excuses, qualifications and "warnings" that these games are money sinks, exactly like Phil always does.

 

[actually]

Any indication of more cash being dropped on WWE Champions? Phil's up to around $3300 in tips this month, although he apparently already spent like $3000 too...

Speaking of Brave Exvius, there's a new Final Fantasy gacha game.

If Phil starts speaking about how much he loves Final Fantasy Tactics or something similar, chances are he started whaling there. I do not know how predatory the game is since I only installed it to check if you can search for players and sadly, it's player ID based, not nickname based.

 

[Phalanx]

No idea just yet but I assume so his break today was very short in these breaks I think he is checking it personally for when fights refresh etc.
Lately he seems incredibly money orientated on meeting targets on tips especially tips but more so making that target. I think he has easily spent 70.000 on this game. The Jasper fundraiser the 3k this week in tips. The constant stating he is near his overdraft. He is missing payments too regularly. What is worse its not like its poker because at least you can win something. Its on jpeg naked men gacha, continues to utterly astound me.

 

[Freshtodeath]

Yeah on Lotto or slots or Bitcoin you at least have a slim chance of making your money back. There has to be a reason he is doing this.

 

[King Daddy Telomerase]

There isn't a reason other than the rush of spending a ton of money to look cool and powerful, and feel you're giving yourself the best advantage in some stupid game. Phil is far from the only whale in games like this. He's not even close to the biggest whale in WWE Champions. These gacha games are ridiculously addictive and profitable.

Only correction is that Phil IS one of the biggest whales. He consistently ranks at the very top of the events.

he's not on any event leaderboards but has an extra wrestler, but I think there was an easy one that came out either with the battle pass or parallel to it
