So I finally beat End Game yesterday and completed all Missions on Challenge Tower didnt skip a single mission. So after winning my Tower Master trophy and best alternate costume ever. I posted my accolades. People were posting where they were currently and what challenge whooped their a**es! They were all different and it got me wondering what challenge that I thought was a breeze was a nightmare for someone else. So feel free to post your 5 Hardest and Favorite CT Missions. And see which mission was the biggest challenge!

-My 5 Hardest C.T. Missions-
1.)#300- End Game
2.)#299- Boy That Guy Is Strong
3.)#251- Bring It On
4.)#269- This is insane
5.)#287- Mirror Realm

-My Five Favorite C.T. Missions-
1.)#188- Arise from your grave.
2.)#211- Defend The Temple.
3.)#209- Orange you glad I came?
4.)#130- Gor-owned.
5.)#289- Who Am I?
Those are mine. I thought End Game was Brutal even with one of my best characters. And Arise from your grave was really effin cool. I wish you could un-lock Zombie hes a bad ass!
 
Challenge 269 is just ri-freakin-diculous until you realize you've gotta spam Stryker's pistol and jump over Kahn's hammer timely. 300 wasn't nearly as hard because A. You have the leisurely option of choosing your character B. You get a health bonus at the end of each round C. If you mess it up enough - it sets Goro, Kintaro, and Kahn to Beginner/ Easy mode where they of course taunt more than attack.

Challenge 172 (playing as retro Sub-Zero) and Challenge 150 (playing as Goro in a gauntlet) were the most fun to me.
 
Gor-owned was great. Nice to have a taste of the over powered. That mission where you have to avoid the ice blasts from the Lin Kuei in the background was also fun.
 
Goro, Kahn, and Kintaro are not that hard. Spam is too tedious. Just crossover jump into a dialup combo. Rinse. Repeat.

You can double flawless them all if you learn the proper timing on jumping their respective moves.
 
I beated the tower but i didnt like that game mode at all, they could use that time and money they spent building the tower adding more characters like Rain and making the story mode longer.

yeah, I got to challenge 200 without much issue, so I bought the rest until end game. really didn't care for the mode OR the reward. I would totally take challange tower going away for like 6-8 more characters and 10 more story chapters. thats where this game really caught it's stride
 
I've enjoyed the Challenge Tower a lot so far. It's quirky and entertaining as hell. I'm not done with it yet, I'm on the one where you fight Sindel as Jade and the stage tilts back and forth as you land hits. Challenge 205-ish. Until I finish it I can't really decide which were hardest, since most of the hardest are yet to come, but my favorites were Gor-owned, Retro Challenger, and then Rainbow Combat. Those were all pretty fun. Plus it's always a nice change of pace to beat Koins out of your opponents lol.
 
The worst 269 only because you have to fight as Stryker and I refuse to spam his gun. but I'm a tower master I only need one more off line achivement [you found me] dam Shang Tsung hits me once with less than 5 sec everytime.

Best 300 because they made it sound so hard and I beat it on my first try!!!
 
i just beat challenge tower, i enjoyed some of it while others where frustrating and ridiculous, i really did not like the mirror one with quan chi, hes hard enough to beat alone without ****ed up controls, favourite misson was the goro one two, but i liked the one where you face 3 shakka kahns

sorry all due respect, but i do not believe you that you beat challenge 300 1st try. I notice alot of people making wild claims about beating the challenge tower no problem, but no real hard evidence, obviously tho now there would be no way to prove that you beat the 300th mission 1st try
 
I hated nearly every single challenge on the Challenge Tower, even the easy ones. The only exceptions are the ones where you throw limbs at your opponent and play as Goro. I really wish they would have taken the time and effort required to make the Challenge Tower and focused it on Story Mode, Characters, and better Online play.
 
I too finished the tower without skipping any... Most of it was pretty easy, but I have to admit 300 took me about 5-6 tries with my best character.

Also, the challenges I had most trouble with were the ones where u and your tag partner have to switch out every 2 seconds or else you will lose health... I HATED those ones, especially since I was using people i sucked with
 
allof the test your sites were awesome i beat them all on the first try. orange you glad i came was awesome too. the hardest for me is end game i'm still working on it
 
Challenge 300 of course. That one where you are Baraka and Mileena standing back to back killing the zombies also took me a few tries, mostly due to me being retarded.
 
Until now there was just one mission that got me angry. I think its 251 - where u have to fight Baraka - Sindel - Kahn as Shang Tsung ..I haven't played shang that much until that point.. and I really had to learn him (some 30%+ combos) to get passed this mission ..took me like 2h+ ..

I've beaten mission 300 on a friends ps3 after 3 tries ..all u need is a teleport char, imo.

Favorites so far. I love em all :p ..Test your "_" is great ..love em.
 
One of the ones I had such a hard time was with Kung Luo vs Lui Kang. I think it was called Hats off or something along those lines. It is in the 200's. Basically he could only be damaged with special attacks. HOWEVER. If you hit the opponent once with a regular attack, BLAM, your dead. Man I hated this. Ive never had much expeience with Kung and I can't tell u hnow many times id slip up on doing a move and end up hitting Lui and dying. That is without a doubt the one mission that took me the longest.

Ahhh, it's really sad because Sindel was so much more difficult than Shao Kahn.

I did the same and learned a lot about Shang Tsung that day :)
