Survivor Mode is a game mode that was introduced in the 2.6 update. It allows players to create a team of three members (with three reserves) to fight more difficult enemies as they progress with different mechanics, and for rewards that culminate in a jackpot, and tickets for the Last Laugh minigame. Notable rewards include Augments and gear sets, which give set bonuses when 2 or 3 pieces are equipped.

Preparing for battle!

Introduction

Survivor allows players to make a team of three members to start the battle. Unlike any other game mode (except for Breakthrough), in Survivor, health holds over between matches. If a player wins a battle, they advance to the next round, and enemies get tougher, and mechanics are introduced such as disabled SP1, or Heal Suppression. After every battle, players have the option to take their jackpot and end Survivor mode, or keep battling onward. If a character dies after a battle, the player can have up to (3) character changes, swapping eliminated team members out for new ones. If all three characters are eliminated with no reserves, the player will be forced to forfeit their jackpot, earning nothing from the mode except rewards from the Last Laugh tickets.

Mechanics

Unlike any other matches, Survivor matches do not consume or require Energy. Your characters' health bars are displayed in its place. Your team is also not saved between plays, and you'll have to create a new team every time you start.

You can heal characters for a certain amount of (24% maximum health) for 2500 Power Credits once per character per match in the start match screen.

Although you fight AI-generated teams instead of player-created (but still AI controlled) teams, Survivor uses Online Battle's rules for power generation - you gain very little power by getting hit. Additionally, your opponents can have various gears, such as The Ibistick, but you will not be able to see the stats and build of your opponent's team at any point. Only fixed enemy teams can have gear (e.g. teams in matches 6, 7, and 9).

Other than that, however, Survivor largely follows single-player's rules. It can be played without an internet connection, Super Moves are not able to be resisted, ensuring that they do maximum damage every time. Characters can be edited (specials upgraded or gear changed) during a Survivor battle. The matches, especially match 6+, may have multiple crippling Modifiers (also known as challenges or handicaps) that makes progression even more difficult.

You can exit Survivor and close the app safely; you will keep your progress. If you quit during a match, your current team will be knocked out, although you can still opt to use reserves. However, if you force-quit the app in the middle of a match and go back to Survivor Mode, it will still allow you to retry that match with a chance of new opponents.

KO'd teammates will continue to offer their team-wide passives as long as they are not swapped out.

If your team is KO'd, you will start where the battle left off (provided you have reserves), with the same enemy team health left.

Survivor opponents are noticeably more aggressive than other AIs, as they can often hit you before you have a chance to block or tag.

Finishing Survivor mode puts it on a 24-hour cooldown, but there are 4 daily buy-ins, which allow players to play up to 5 times in a row for an increasing price of Power Credits (starting at 15,000).

With the 2.8 Update, most of the characters seen thus far appear to be potential opponents in Survivor. In later rounds, it is very common to encounter the effects of signature gear items while battling these opponents (as shown in pic).

Meanwhile, with the 2.11 Update, there have been lots of changes. For example, Raven/Teen Titans, despite being announced but was never released, can be encountered as an opponent in Battle 4, while the new Suicide Squad characters can already be faced, with additional new characters from Online Battles such as Doomsday/Blackest Night and The Joker/Unhinged Suicide Squad can be seen as well.

Update 3.2 adds more matches in Survivor mode that may feature Metal opponents or teams. Nth Metal is added as a wheel reward as well.

Opponent's scaling

While it is possible for the enemy team to be an assortment of bronze, silver, and gold characters, characters on the same team would have roughly the same level of stats, up to far beyond what players can achieve. By match 12, characters can hit over 150,000 with SP1, have over 500,000 health, and Deathstroke/Arkham Origins is known to hit almost 300,000 with his unblockable SP1. By match 15, it is possible to face opponents with over 1,000,000 health who can hit over 20,000 with every basic attack, and almost any character can hit over 200,000 with a single SP1.

A very important detail to note is Survivor opponents scale according to the strongest character on your team. A maxed gold character will face opponents just as strong, whether their teammates are also maxed or at base stats. Therefore, you are strongly advised to build your team around Raven/Prime - if she is not promoted, use a non-promoted team, etc.

IMG 2017-1-

Redeeming your prize(s) with the amount of Last Laugh tickets acquired in battle!

Overall, it seems that Survivor's scaling very slightly favors a high level team over a low level team, provided both teams have balanced stats. For gold cards, assuming all else is equal, an E7 card has 5x the damage and health of a E0 card, but the Survivor opponents received are "only" about 3~4x as strong.

Rewards

Before every match, the player is given a wheel to spin which grants them a specific reward dependent on their victory in battle. Rewards can be shards (3 of blue, red, and green, or 1 purple), gear (1 or 2 star only, with 2 star being more common), 2x power credits multiplier, 25 Nth Metal, an augmentation card (which can only be Major Character XP augments), and one Last Laugh ticket.

Experience

Only character(s) on the team with the highest level (or close to it) will gain full experience (roughly 5000~8500, depending on stats and match). Below it, experience rapidly declines to a minimum of 1/10 of full experience. This is very useful for keeping certain useful cards within a good level range to maintain a balanced team, such as Batgirl/Arkham Knight, who has much higher base stats than Raven/Prime.

Levels below character with highest level % of full experience
3 or less 100%
4 60%
5 30%
6 or more 10%

Recommended Characters

There are a number of characters who are especially strong in Survivor:

Beginners

These characters are good for low rounds of Survivor, and does not require lots of specialist gear or augments, but some are good even for veterans, so this isn't a hard divide.

  • Raven/Prime: Undoubtedly one of the best possible picks for Survivor for beginners and veterans alike. Her passive gives her an immense free ~80% max health and "healing" potential - twice. Not only the health swap means she can take down Survivor opponents with huge stretches of health, she could also restore her own health without it being reduced by Healing Suppression or Killer Frost/Regime's passive. In higher matches, enemy health rapidly increases to the point it will take millions of damage to win - making Raven all but mandatory.
  • Doomsday/Containment: Despite his low apparent health, his three resurrections allow him to soak up Survivor opponents' ridiculous damage, particularly 1-hit specials (Doomsday/Prime, Zod/Prime, most versions of Superman, etc.) that often is difficult for Raven to deal with, and is excellent for brute-forcing an enemy Raven's passive if you can't avoid triggering it. His health reservoir system also allows him to take reduced damage from Radiation. Since his resurrection count resets with every match, he essentially irreducibly heals for up to 60% of his large total health between matches. Additionally, his deceptively low base stats can lean scaling to your favor.
  • Killer Frost/Prime: Her incredible power dampening passive (as well as further slows through her SP1) are very useful in preventing opponents in higher matches from generating even one bar of power, as even their SP1s can inflict immense damage.
  • Reverse Flash: Up to three times a match, he can recover from damage and status effects from specials, unaffected by heal suppression. He also has a theoretically infinite combo that can whittle down opponents without suffering any retaliation.
  • Doomsday/Prime: More readily available than Raven and also decent because of the +50% total health he gets from a knock out blow, even though not nearly as strong as Raven's passive. Note that his effectiveness diminishes towards later matches due to healing suppression.
  • Harley Quinn, Wonder Woman/Dawn of Justice, or Martian Manhunter/Blackest Night: For their team healing effects.
  • Sinestro/Antimatter: As described on his own page, given sufficient gears and good teammates, he can deal lots of damage with constant tagging in and out, thus allowing the AI little-to-no time to attack.
Seriously?

An example of Sinestro's devastating passive (pic was taken at the end of round 12).

  • Catwoman/Arkham Knight: With a passive that allows her to add bleed DOT to AI, and can't be rinsed even if they tag out. Combined with her high base damage, she can cause a great amount of DOT.
  • Superman/Injustice 2, The Flash/Wally West Rebirth, Batman/Dawn of Justice: They all have the ability to block/avoid an entire special with their passives, which can nullify damage and any status effects that could've destroyed another character.
  • Batman/Arkham Knight: Being arguably the most versatile character in the game, he can counter nearly any opponent one might face in Survivor. Granted he is still outclassed in terms of sheer stats in later rounds, but the right gear setup and excellent supporting teammates can turn one's team into a bastion of resilience, especially with the Fourth World Set. Or one could capitalize on his specials and turn him into an offensive monster with the Cloak of Destiny, Ibistick, and League of Assassin adept knives.
  • Raven/Rebirth: Not only can she steal power from opponents much more powerful than her in later rounds, but when paired with DOT gear that takes off percentages of health such as The Ibistick, she can not only neutralize their ability to use a special, but could retaliate rapidly with multiple SP1s.
  • Green Lantern/Red Son: He is immune to crit and stun, allowing him to counter notoriously deadly enemies such as Bane/Luchador or Flashpoint teams.
  • The Flash/Blackest Night: Being able to resurrect with 100% health regardless of Heal Suppression makes him undoubtedly a game-changer for Survivor Mode. Not only that, but he HEALS from DoT and can give this DoT healing ability to fellow BN teammates. The dodging of basic attacks allows you to intercept enemy combos easier. This could just save your life if you are being combo-spammed to death by the unusually-fast Survivor AI. Give Blackest Night Flash Nekron's Scythe, the Fourth World Godly Helmet and Chestplate, and pair him with Hawkgirl/Blackest Night. At maximum, he'll have 3 resurrects which recharge if you make it to the next fight, allowing you to recover from an otherwise hopeless battle.
  • Batgirl/Cassandra Cain: Her passive allows her to take out 25% of the enemies' health upon tag in which can be a significant amount of damage especially as one reaches higher matches. Her SP1 can also inflict immense damage with geared properly along with Cloak of Destiny.

Advanced

These characters may be strong at any level, but truly shine in the hands of a veteran especially in higher rounds. They are incredibly effective with powerful gear and augments - in higher rounds, damage done is usually focused on gear DOT, particularly from The Ibistick.

  • Batman/Flashpoint: His passive allows his crit to deal 5x damage with max augments (details on his page), which makes his gear DOT especially devastating. Both his specials apply gear DOT twice.
  • Lobo/Bounty Hunter: His SP2 snares, preventing the opponent from rinsing the gear DOT, useful for matches where s1 is disabled.
  • Aquaman/Prime: Tantu Totem is a must, with it, Aquaman can perform SP2 - power refund - tag-in - gain power - use SP1 - repeat. By that way he can have 3 bar of power and flood the enemies with DOT gear, quickly destroying even the most durable opponents. Special 1 is disabled in many of the very high rounds, but he can still be relevant with Heart of Darkness which applies DOT on any special use (even his non-damaging s2) that drains power and deals damage equal to 2%-6% enemy max health.

Opponents to look out for

  • Darkseid/Prime: The scaling does not seem to take Darkseid's passive into account; you may face bronze characters with disproportionately high damage and health, as their stats are further quadrupled by Darkseid's passive despite the fact that they have already been compensated by Survivor itself.
  • Green Lantern/John Stewart: His passive makes his teammates invulnerable for 4 seconds once per match upon falling below 20% health, which can be quite frustrating especially in later matches when those seconds can often result in taking unavoidable and unrecoverable damage.
  • Deathstroke/Arkham Origins: His passive can make his SP1 incredibly deadly, which can cause a lot of pain, especially in the face of healing suppression. This makes him deadly as he nears 1 bar of power or as he is tagged out gaining power and not vulnerable to power drain.
  • Raven/Prime: Her passive can greatly lower the health of one of your characters, making Survivor much more difficult as health isn't restored after each match. Also, when SP2 is disabled (most notably Survivor Fight 7, where Raven is one of the possible matches) it can take a lot longer to defeat her unless you can gain enough power for a Super, therefore it's often harder to avoid her deadly health swap.
  • Joker/Insurgency or Joker/Prime: If you knock him out, you lose a good amount of your max health, which can be a significant threat and sometimes an unrecoverable number, unless you knock him out as the last opponent.
  • Superman/Injustice 2: On higher rounds, with constant health regain Handicaps and Special-Disable for your characters, it can be extremely difficult to battle against him if his effect is still in play.
  • Batman/Dawn of Justice: Similar to the above, he can be a difficult opponent to face due to his passive, along with the high damage output of his SP2.
  • Batman/Arkham Origins: His infamous starting 2 bars of power can be tricky and hard to avoid sometimes.
  • Killer Frost/Prime: Her passive can make your power frustratingly slow (at a 50% generation decrease), and her SP1 can slow it even further.
  • Killer Frost/Regime: She can cut your health gain by 90% (except for regeneration effect) which can be critical in certain matches, and your healing is also suppressed at later rounds.
  • Solomon Grundy/Earth 2: His passive, Death Aura's DoT is frustratingly hard to deal with considering it could take your team down to low health in 3-4 ticks in the later fights, especially when coupled with the Radiation handicap. Furthermore, like with Killer Frost/Prime, he will slow down power generation, making him a very dangerous opponent.
  • The Flash/Elseworld: In any other circumstance, he is a weak card with negligible stats and a slightly inconvenient passive. However, in later rounds of Survivor where he is bolstered to stats that are extremely high, triggering of his passive could spell death for a helpless teammate. The only hope would be the AI activating a special and the player's character is durable enough to endure.
  • Batman/Arkham Knight: Regardless of which of the 2 buffs he randomly selects, they can provide a major inconvenience or death depending on whether he chose his defensive or offensive buffs respectively. If he chooses 2 bars, odds are he wipes out a teammate, if he goes defensive, especially with DoT immunity, pure burst damage will take a very long time to kill him.
  • Raven/Rebirth: Generally, if a team is durable enough, they try to save up special bars to retaliate. Or people time their specials to give increased synergy within their team. Raven completely changes the way one utilizes such teams and forces teams to expend their power as much as possible out of fear of her tagging in and wiping them out.
  • Green Arrow/Rebirth: He could potentially land a meterless powerdrain by simply tagging in, and following up with another powerdrain, or if tagging out for a Rebirth teammate, could potentially force the opposing team to either wait helplessly or waste their special. Generally, he is an annoyance outside of Survivor, but in later rounds, his high stats means he will continually tag in and out and make dealing with him an annoyingly herculean task.
  • Jessica Cruz/Rebirth: Her combo ender could potentially leave one helpless to a special that is almost certain to destroy her opposition, and sometimes the stun is not even necessary, as the volley of missiles after the first stun could wipe out a teammate as well, also pray she doesn't come equipped with the Gauntlets of Azrael as some Survivor opponents are equipped with gear.

Gear

Notable gear includes:

  • The Ibistick: When fully upgraded, it allows your specials to do additional burn damage over time equal to 10% of enemy maximum health, which is critical in higher matches. There are situations where it can be applied multiple times per special, making it extremely powerful; for more details, see that page.
  • The Master's Death Cart: Its tag-in attacks can apply DOT from gears like The Ibistick, making them a great pair together.
  • Overpowered 5-U-93-R: For the constant power drain you will find useful at any stage, and need to prevent match 10+ opponents from knocking your characters out with a single SP1. Ra's al Ghul's Scimitar may also be used, but Overpowered 5-U-93-R's basic damage, crit and life drain on combo ender is much more useful in dealing heavy sustained damage, especially with crit damage augments.
  • Gauntlets of Azrael: The heal team aspect of this gear allows one character such as Jessica Cruz, The Arkham Knight, Green Arrow/Rebirth, or Batman/Flashpoint to restore massive chunks of health to you and your teammates.

Matches

There are 21 rounds in total in Survivor Mode, and completing all rounds is known as a "Total Victory" without special rewards. However, it will take astronomical investments in the perfect characters, gear, augments, as well as extreme luck, skill, and patience.

Most characters can appear as Survivor opponents.

Strategy

Match 1

The opponents should be easy with strong characters, especially Nightwing/Regime with the Gingold Soda & Killer Croc Companion Card EVOLVED. He will take absolutely no basic damage which will make you surpass the first matches especially when Nightwing/Regime is maxed out.

Match 7

Doomsday's Mutated Bone Spikes and Bane's Venom Injection System is very good to use here. If you are using Harley, switch out her Dual .357 Revolvers for any heal on SP1 gear.

  • Static, Superman/Godfall, Nightwing/New 52: Quite frustrating as Static is immune to power drain, while Ra's is usually so useful for keeping opponents from using specials by itself. His SP1 is also a fast 100% stun special that does full damage, while New 52 Nightwing can do quite a bit of basic damage upon tagging in and has an effective SP1 power drain. Superman's passive is not much of a threat, but his partially unblockable SP2 is what players should beware of as it can devastate unprepared teams.
  • Scorpion/Mortal Kombat X, Aquaman/Regime, Catwoman/Batman Returns: Generally the easiest. Their main threat comes from the heavy damage over time from all three characters; try not to switch your characters around unnecessarily as you will need to tag out immediately after being hit by a bleed special.
  • The Flash/Metahuman, Doomsday/Containment, Raven/Prime: The hardest of the three. Containment Doomsday's resurrections mean he takes a long time to take down and often lands unavoidable SP1s (although he has much lower damage than average), and Raven's extraordinarily powerful health swap is always a pain to avoid. Metahuman Flash will also quickly wipe the floor with your team after using a special, due to his passive allowing him to rapidly fire an unblockable barrage of crit basic attacks.

Match 9

Where it starts to get difficult due to the powerful opponents and strong healing suppression.

  • Wonder Woman/Red Son, Deathstroke/Red Son, Batman/Red Son: Easily the hardest of the three. Wonder Woman allows them to gain power rapidly, Deathstroke makes their basics much faster, but the worst is Batman's passive: high unblockable chance on SP1, essentially allowing WW and Deathstroke's SP1 (which they reach very quickly due to WW's passive) to unavoidably one-shot most characters under 1000 base health unless significant alliance health boosts/gear were used. Batman's SP1 deals reduced damage but due to its high stun chance another character will tag in and finish you off anyway. While enemy stats are "scaled" to your team, low level teams are at even more of a disadvantage: their SP1 can do twice of your max health in unblockable damage.
  • Solomon Grundy/Boss, Green Lantern/Red Son, Superman/Red Son: The most tedious enemy team. Red Son Green Lantern and Superman have high base health and GL's passive makes them extraordinarily tough to take down. Boss Solomon Grundy also has high health and his basic damage skyrockets as his health depletes; unusually, he also has basic crit gear, further amplifying his immense damage at low health (note that if Raven's passive triggers against him, his basic damage modifier will stay at where it is, increasing by one level until it reaches the level he is supposed to be each time he takes a further hit; uses this to try and burst him down right after the health swap to prevent him from taking advantage of his absurd basic damage at low health). Red Son Green Lantern is also equipped with the Ibistick and Red Son Superman is equipped with Ra's Al Ghul's Scimitar and his signature Kryptonian Suit.
  • Bane/Arkham Origins, The Joker/Arkham Origins, Harley Quinn/Arkham: Generally the easiest of the three, but that's not saying much. Arkham Harley's strength comes from her Arkham team-wide unblockable SP2, but this is of relatively little concern here as at this level, if you let them get to two bars of power, you're dead either way, unblockable or not. Bane's passive is particularly dangerous, as he gives his whole team one bar of power upon falling under 50% health, and there is the added pain of Bane also having his Venom Harness. Note that his passive shares a similar mechanic as Boss Grundy above; it won't be triggered directly by the health swap, but rather by the next hit after the health swap. If you can knock him out with one hit, his passive will not be triggered, which will be critical to survival. Joker's passive can do copious amounts of poison damage (which would also lower your damage dealt by 20%) even if you have block gear to tank the special itself, so tag out whenever he does SP1.

Match 14

This is the point where it becomes simply impossible for the vast majority of players. Enemies could knock out almost any character with a single basic combo, and you can forget about taking a single SP1. A single missed basic attack or combo ender will likely spell instant death. They can have over 20 times your health, and the whole team regenerates 1% of their gargantuan health pool every second (not affected by Killer Frost/Regime), making it a herculean task to even match their healing rate, let alone defeat them - further worsened by disabled SP1, which halves the efficiency of burns from % max health damage gear (e.g. The Ibistick). For some perspective, as The Ibistick, when maxed, burns for 10% enemy max health for every special used and enemies heal 1% every second (actually 3% combined, but it's assumed here you managed to focus on a single target first), it means you have to use a SP2 on the same character every 10 seconds just to barely break even.

Crit chance and damage augments are essential here, as it can affect Ibistick and League of Assassins Adept Blade's damage over time effects.

A possible setup and strategy that can get through match 14 are as follows, even though incredible luck is also required:

Luck is particularly critical with the first two opponents: you need to trigger Raven's passive when she is at about 5% or lower, otherwise, even a crit-augmented SP2 won't be able to knock them out quickly, which you definitely need to do with the first two opponents quickly before the third opponent can generate one bar of power, which Killer Frost's power dampening passive can help stall longer.

Fourth World Godly Mace is not used for its damage effects - they can't help you now at this point - but rather its SP2 power drain. KF's SP2 has a good number of hits and is unblockable, giving it a good chance to power drain, which is very useful when an opponent manages to get 1 bar (or close to it) and Raven can't drain with combo ender in time. Additionally, you can use it immediately after Killer Frost throws back her opponent with a light or heavy basic combo. If timed correctly, it can hit them from a distance; this causes the ice daggers to hit her opponent after her special finishes, causing a pseudo-stun than allows you to segue back to Raven safely.

Raven's juggling with her basic combos needs to be perfect. If her light combo does not get a combo ender, it may be advisable to tag in one of her teammates to cancel its long ending animation, which may otherwise cause her to take enemy basic attacks. Another option when juggling the last opponent is to not use her SP2 immediately after 2 bars, but rather when her basics get blocked (unless she has full power). Don't panic and spam light basics when one is blocked, as this almost always leads to them retaliating with their basics. Waiting a brief moment before using another light basic attack after the first one was blocked tend to give a much better chance the AI won't block it. It doesn't matter if your SP2 is blocked, as the majority of damage comes from Ibistick/Adept Blade at this point, and it may be even better since Soul Crush's 4 hits can give them a dangerous amount of power if unblocked.

Match 15

This match is actually significantly easier than match 14: no regeneration suppression (full Fourth World Set and LexCorp Gauntlets V2 can be used to heal), no enemy regeneration, and most importantly, no disable SP1, allowing Sinestro/Antimatter to spam SP1 with infinite power, even though it will still take an extremely long time simply due to their astronomical health.

Match 16

This round allows healing on SP2 moves while disabling all SP1 moves. Random tagging is also present making this round extremely difficult to apply strategies.

Trivia

  • A full playthrough (from round 1 to 21) can be found here.
  • Survivor has been updated multiple times after release, as at that time it was considered too difficult (for example, Killing Joke Joker from as early as match 6 is known to deal 20000+ damage on SP1 against non-promoted teams with ~10000 health). The scaling is taken down significantly, heal suppression has been lessened in earlier rounds and random tag has been removed from all rounds except round 16 which is the final round.
  • It is possible to obtain more than 100 Last Laugh tickets by quitting the game upon cashing out, without playing the minigame. The counter in the minigame will only reach 99 as the highest, but once it falls to 91, it will count back to 99 and continue so forth. For example, if you managed to cash out 132 tickets, first, the counter will be displayed as 92, and then 99 and continue on until you actually have 99 left, then it will simply count down normally as it would be. This has been patched at one point, and quitting the game during the Last Laugh interface would only cause it to reopen upon going into Survivor again, but later this functionality was restored.
  • Previously, characters that are in the game files but not officially released or playable yet were known to appear in Survivor.
