Joker's Carnival (Yea I'm not the first)
I've been trying to get 3 medals on this challenge map on and off since launch, across XBOX360, PS4, and now PC. Even after watching videos and guides and everything else, I still can't manage to do it. I used to think I was decent at video games, but holy hell is this challenge merciless. And astronomically harder than any other challenge in the game, and the ones in Arkham Asylum/Knight. I have Platinums/Perfect games on those other two titles, and this is really the only thing holding me back from finishing this one. Is there any easier way to get these medals I may be unaware of, or is there perhaps a way to cheat? Or does anyone else just want to share their annoyance with this challenge? lol

I feel ya frustration, it's an incredibly difficult challenge because the timing is so critical with every enemy type in the game thrown at you and basically zero room for error.

I managed to finally do it after God knows how many attempts! The main key was really jumping over all risky enemies and attacking from behind and be very careful with any freeflow attacks but I'm sure you already know that.

All I can recommend is to pace yourself and don't rush the timing or take risky moves especially later as the enemies actually increase speed in their attacks. As I'm sure you know when you lose your combo it becomes almost impossible to crack the 1000000 score.

Have a look at my vid - no sure if it helps but you might find a tactic of use I used..

It is a very hard challenge. one of the biggest keys to any group combat is target prioritization. You generally want to takedown any weapons enemies asap. Same for the hammer brutes, but you can also exploit them to quickly raise your combo too to get more takedowns.
ranged enemies should be a priority target, do not let them access the rifles if at all possible, and of course use your spacemaker (bat swarm) and multi-ground takedown as often as you can.

Try to wait as long as possible before cashing in,but you're better off doing so sooner rather then losing it entirely. it's far less important to lose your comb before losing bank.

It's super easy
Just like any map featuring the one armed thug
All you need to do is spam attack then press R as soon as you can
Repeat until he's dead and don't drop the combo
You'll 3 star it in no time
If you want real garbage then check out catwoman's predator challanges

The game launched in 2012. That's some serious 9 years dedication. If I were you I would entrust this mission to my sons/grandsons
