Again, there is a glitch that makes it *appear* as if they have the same Slingshot as you. I’m always paired with someone that *appears* to have a Golden Slingshot. Unless the glitch is fixed, it might be difficult to tell if you have actually faced a Bronze Slingshot..
I have no idea if anyone is even above Gold yet. Can’t say I wouldn’t be pitted against an Azure Slingshot if there’s no such thing right now. Statistically, it’s impossible since there haven’t been enough Black Pearls to earn for a 4th level up of a Slingshot. I’ve always tried to be one of the first to level up my slingshot, so I haven’t really seen anyone above me (from the Arena List).
All I know is that before it was introduced, I was almost never got past Round 3 in Arena. Now, I almost always get a Full Streak.
But I can see the logic behind that IF it is true that the system will keep it from fighting someone with a Bronze Slingshot. If the system will pair a guy with five level 11s and two level 10s against a player with four level 14s and three level 13s, I see no reason why they wouldn’t do the same with Slingshots… Especially for Rounds 3, 5 and 7.
I have been pitted against players that have one bird with no hats at all (with the appearance of a Gold Slingshot).
Eventually, I’m sure Rovio will figure out an algorithm that will factor in Bird Levels and Slingshot Levels together.
