Fixed game crashes by changing scaling settings to fxaa
Game version 1.25 using GE-Proton 9-25.
GPU and CPU graph were all over the place, tweaked settings in decky power tools and ended up with a more stable 60fps and slightly better battery time.

Runs well out fo the box. No tinkering needed.
Multiplayer on Steam deck is 100% unplayable once again with disconnections at the start of every match.

Overall, it runs as intended. Only minor graphical glitches, and the number and severity of them decreased from GE-Proton9-3 to GE-Proton9-4
Minor flickering and artifacting on clothing during entrances and create-a-wrestler modes.
Very occasionally the game won't launch correctly. After clicking Play in Steam, it will launch in the background, then close itself 15-20 seconds later. It doesn't seem to crash, it just doesn't seem to load. Clicking Play again will launch the game as intended.
I haven't tried the game with anything other than Proton Experimental, GE-Proton9-3, & GE-Proton9-4. There were really bad glitches with Experimental, but it runs nearly perfectly with GE.

I have an insane amount of graphical glitches and artifacts constantly making gameplay near impossible and a very frustrating experience.
Huge graphical glitches and artifacts make it near impossible to play
Despite following recommended settings I cannot resolve graphical glitches. How this game is certified gold is beyond me. Avoid on Deck.

This is weird. Menus, CAW avatars (in menus) and other menu items just show pixels all over the place. These rogue artifacts don't carry over into gameplay, but it's still annoying.
So, I found some issues when starting up MyRise (I always jump into MyRise before anything else. I'm not sure why). However, after creating my character and jumping into my first match, I noticed that everything was sluggish, even though my SD was showing 60 FPS. It was almost as if the characters were moving through water, it was so slow. That said, I tinkered with a bunch of settings to fix this, and now everything is buttery smooth at or near 60 FPS (even in most of the matches with 4+ combatants).

In my SD settings, I am not limiting anything like TDP or framerate, as I play plugged in most of the time on the couch, so battery really isn't a concern for me. The above settings give me a pretty consistent near 60 FPS and a Rank A in the in-game benchmark.
Also, I have this installed on my internal drive, not an SD card (not sure if that makes a difference). True, we've had to lower some settings, shadows, etc., but on the Deck, it's hardly noticable.

Tutorial popups
Runs great, just some small flikering when tutorial popups or in myfaction

Consistent crashing when create-a-video options are used.
If you are fine without making custom titantrons, this game runs fine otherwise.

During tutorial popups screen layout gets fuzzy
Runs great just like 2k23 did. only problems were with tutorial popups during GM mode or MyFaction the screen would get fuzzy. Like a proton version. Pressing A to close popups would get rid of the fuzzy screen. Community creations work flawlessly and played atleast 4-5hrs MyRise on deck never crashed

Heavy artifacts from depth of field
Turn off depth of field
Weird, glitchy mess unless DoF is turned off for me. If you have most of your screen glitched out like you punched your monitor, change that setting.

Menus have severe artifacts
1 crash within first two hours

Tried both Wayland and Xorg, on Gnome. Once I'm in the ring, all I can see is a glitchy mess taking up 3/4 of the screen.
Lowered graphics settings
Pixel graphics in certain menus

Lowered stuff to High instead of Ultra for better battery
Feels as good as 2k23

In certain menus such as the ones in MyFaction, the screen would glitch out like a CRT TV on its dying legs.
It runs right out of the box, but even at its lowest settings, it does not run well.
