@hooksfan Your opponent was either more skilled than you, their key birds had higher levels or you just performed bad. It is theoretically impossible to obtain over 2 million points just from spells and I’ll explain why.
Let’s assume the 5 spells in the game are completely overpowered and destroy everything in a level including pigs. You can get a maximum of 100000 points per level and an additional 25000 bonus for getting a strike, that brings the total score up to 625000. That’s the equivalent of a 1 well thrown bird at level 6. But we all know spells don’t work that way, the ice spell is pretty much rubbish and does nothing, even the best spell in the game the Mighty Eagle, only pops pigs and barely does any damage to structures. You are NOT gaining any reasonable advantage by using spells, in fact you’re at a disadvantage for the reasons I’ve explained in my previous post, the only times they do come in handy is when you need to kill off 1 or more pigs after a failed throw and that’s ONLY if you’re lucky to have the right spell at the right time in your hand.
The most important thing that matters is the level of your own birds and how much damage you cause with them to structures, that’s where 90%+ of your final score comes from. Remember that your birds can have varying amount of levels and if you use the lower leveled birds more often than the rest then no matter how many strikes you get, your final score will be considerably lower (3 strikes at lv 4 is more or less the equivalent of 4 strikes at lv 3). There are plenty of problems with the arena but spell usage is not one of them.
