But it will get easier after fight 50, (which is my expirience) But eventually I ran out of life. Dunno if it will get harder again after fight 70+ The comp level just starts at easy then goes up then down and then ??? To achieve 100 is really good trough!
I want to play it out with Orochi Iori, altrough getting over 73 is hard, need to train some mb <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

And, of course, some characters are easier to use than others in this mode. The Survival Mode seems to play harder whenever you use one of the "boss characters", or charactes like Evil Ryu and Orochi Iori since you do get some extra battle bonuses by using them (stronger fireballs, more combo abilities, etc...).
To be VERY honest with you, the easiest character to do this mode with is Akari. She has a move where she sticks out her card and zaps you by pressing back on the joystick and the punch button. This move has INSANE PRIORITY and REACH. Literally, I went through most of the matches at the highest levels using this move, a few aerial stomps (in air, Down+Kick) and some slow fireballs (QCF+Punch). Give that a shot and see how far you make it... <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">
To Laurence Blood: There is actually another medal called the "Master Medal" that you can receive in the Olympic Matches. Some of the games, of course, are easier than others. I have already MAXed out the score in the Ghost Trick, did all 100 matches in Survival Mode and obtained a perfect in Blade Arts and only managed to get a Crystal Rating for each. You'll probably have to do something "extra extroadinary" in order to get the Master Medals. Like for instance, doing all 100 matches of Survival Mode with Dan. The machine told me in one of the "Talk Sessions" that if I was to go through the mode with Dan that I would be a REAL pro. That could be a hint. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">
Time Attack is probably the easiest of them all if you have a character like Evil Ryu or Orochi Iori to your disposal. Getting a time under 50 seconds seems to do the trick. And on target 9, you'll probably have to destroy 100 ships without wasting a bullet... which is downright impossible.
As for the rest of the events, your guess is as good as mine... <IMG SRC="smilies/eek.gif" border="0">
