My Level 19 spells were all transformed into Level 1 spells on the day of the Halloween download and have remained so. Trick or Treat!

Kelshe, I have occasionally met an opponent in the Arena bringing in 1 or 2 Level 20 spells. However, when I am in the match and that Spell comes up in their hand, it is no longer Level 20 but Level 1 and scores like x1, not x20. This has happened 3 or or 4 times now.

Perhaps you have noticed if you use a spell first in a round of the match, any subsequent bird used that touches whatever the level 1 spell affected no longer scores its multiplier, but the multiplier of the spell which is x 1. So using spells to start a round very much reduces your potential score and eliminates the value of the bird(s) that follow that touch anything effected by that spell.

I have adapted my strategy since all my spells are Level 1 and use only Chili and ME in each match. They both easily clear away one or 2 lingering birds without spoiling the potential star count and allow me to move to the next panel with my remaining birds where there is more opportunity for a real score. I have also used ME near the end of a match to clear a panel that my remaining bird(s) could not damage (like the blues against stone.) hoping the next panel will offer greater potential for score and often does.

So here’s the thing, everyone here is still playing the Game. Some of us have played for a long time and we have seen many permutations with the many downloads. So ADAPT. To play this Game, you have to adapt. I have offered some observations about the Level 1 spells and how I have adapted my Game to them. I use the advantages that I learn as part of adaptation. When advantages disappear, I look for new ones or ways around the new obstacle, like the new way to retain spells. Make part of your Strategy with this Game ADAPTATION. Make that part of the fun when you play the game. If it is just too hard and too frustrating, stop playing…. till you have a new strategy.
