My competition week after week is insanity to maintain 1st. I’m playing rather aggressively this week. In the 2-3 days of the start, I was at 800 points and the 2nd and 3rd places were inches away from me. By day 4, Rovio gave the black star to those 2 individuals. Thought I can rest easily with 2nd place with 300 stars behind me. Uh-uh. He caught up now I had a player that were once 5th (Rush Silver) crank out 400 stars within 2-3 hours. Currently I’m leading with 1639 while these 2 players are in 2nd and 3rd place (Rush) with 1591 and 1574 respectively. I keep hearing of an apathy league, but I’m never in it. I have 4 birds at 38 and 3 birds at level 40, which puts me a flock power at 272.
The patterns are always odd, and I too can’t distinguish a real player from a bot. I also have low stash on tickets, since I haven’t found ways to bank tickets. I usually play the free ticket, watch the video, and wait the 3 hours. However, I need to catch up I spend the 99 gems for 3 tickets and replenish it with the gifts I receive.
Opponent strengths are random, and most do make any sense. When I face opponents with flock power WELL below mine (im talking players at @33-34 with flock powers of 230-250), they’re for some odd reason very HARD to beat and usually I average 5-7 stars on them. No idea how, and they’re scoring astronomically well in the 13+ million range, while my score increases slowly. Disappointing for birds at level 38-40 with level 23 spells. Opponents with slightly less power (260-266) I can win easily 9-10 stars. Opponents that have higher flock power than I do like 274, I can beat them rather easily and I can get 8-10 stars with these matches. When I’m evenly matched, it’s anyone’s game (5-10 stars)
