These have to be the absolutely worst levels ever in a tournament. Obvious Rovio has come developed another game…..

@terribletom Agreed. There seems to be “tactical” and “strategic” events going on just now at Rovio. “Tactical” in the sense of short-term “Blast” alterations to ABF in order to facilitate a smooth transition from old ABF to new Blast game. “Strategic” in the sense to appease us veterans while picking our pockets in a brand new way :)

Oh, well. Capitalism at its best. I would do the same thing as CEO of Rovio. How to maximize profits? What a tremendous responsibility! IMHO, Rovio’s business model worked great for many years. Now is the time to sell short. And that’s exactly what they’re doing :)

In the meantime, the stupid game remains fun, but it’s a loser to Rovio. It’ll soon be history, and I still didn’t get a new car or a toaster oven :)

Does this mean ABF is over? I really don’t like the new version (Blast).

Rank: Avian Overlord with 16240 points

@Jinny No, ABF is not over. Very few like the current “Blast” ABF tournament. In my opinion, Rovio made a major boo-boo and may have caused confusion by naming this current tournament “Blast” while introducing a new “solitaire” type of game called AB Blast to compete with “Toy Blast.”

I could be totally wrong.

Keep playing ABF and give Rovio the benefit of the doubt. To me, it’s kinda like Coke changing their original formula. How stupid was that? :)

Level 1: power-ups are of no use except jingle sling. The key thing is to get the gemstones on the ground and trigger the rocket. This can only be done with explosives and luck.

Bird 1: There’s a sweet spot just above the first pig in the bubble. Accelerate late. You can sometimes clear all the way through the two boxes under the middle platform.

Bird 2: Assuming you have cleared at least the first box under the middle platform, fling low towards the right end to break glass. You can use Wingman here but it does not make a huge difference in the end. You will waste a lot of wingmen if you are chasing a highscore, because of the luck factor at the end of the level.

Bird 3: Fling short, detonate and make sure you get all gems on the left.

Bird 4: Drop bomb on trigger to start the rocket. Make sure to get any remaining box under the middle platform with the not-a-carcass.

Then it is is up to luck. Sometimes debris will get one of the three gemstones to the right. This gives scores in the 315-318k span. Very rarely you will get two gems, for 320-323k. I have tried to get the gems with the ornaments from the jingle sling and Wingman, but no success yet.

323k is my highest score.

Thanks @f91jsw, used your strat plus Wingman at the end (without flinging, just for extra 10k).

Thank you for the strat,i used flc bonesling to take out the line with the two boxes.
Chuck js to right and with luck he went down and took the 3 diamonds.
Bomb js for the diamonds on left side.
Matilda js drop bomb on trigger,bq,wm for 10k. I guess you all have tried something similar but with luck its possible.
337396,i used Leapdroid.

My chuck never falls into the pit, he just seems to be too thick. I think it is because of it that I play over ios

Whats going on ? Cannot watch the Powerup video. States “restricted must have permission”. However, I can watch the regular strategy video. NEVER had this problem before!

Level 6 – I’m surprised that my score has held up as top on Nest for so long! Others have me beat by several k-points. They probably haven’t posted yet. Best on my list of FB friends is 344k (@mohammed-nihal :) I have only 330k. I bet if you ask, they’ll gladly share their strat. :)

By Don

@dserfert i don’t get how to go about level 2 and 6, the hovering boxes above the balloons on the right is hard to hit, and level 6 there are too many obstacles in between the left and right area.

Anyone with a good strat on level 3? Any platform
I currently have 573k

I just realised that without a video its hard to write a walkthrough on a level like that.
