@david-martin makes a great observation. I had assumed that only runs that didn’t include spell usage were replayed for us. However, my observation of hat usage strongly indicates that the runs are being modified server-side. So it is also perhaps possible that our opponents really are using spells, but they are being removed from the…[Read more]

Thanks! I glad you found this useful. I’ve grown a bit bored with AB2 but still need a good way to kill time so I though it would be more fun to kill time analyzing AB2 :) Of course all this will no longer matter as soon as Rovio makes another tweak ;)
For all I know, it could just be a random display bug, but I think not. The score…[Read more]

Nice explanation. I’ve been thinking about similar things. Because this forum is broken and you can’t go directly to links for particular replies, only to the OP’s first post, I started a new post to discuss this.
All my opponents have the same star level and sling as I do. If I level up a sling, then my opponents all have that same…[Read more]

Many have noted that their opponent’s hats make no sense. You might face someone who has a gold sling, but their birds are wearing party hats or no hat at all. Why is this? Why would competitive players purposely handicap themselves when they must have a full set of higher level hats? To try and figure this out, I recorded data on my area…[Read more]

For me, I’ve aways needed at least 2x their score. If you opponent’s score was 1337, you would need a minimum of 2674 for 10 points, but you only had 2079.

Honestly, it’s anyone’s guess. I also noted the change in the arena. Previously I would see opponents ranked below me in both star and bird level for streak=1 and 2. Then I would be highly outmatched at streak =3. This is what many here report. Then, coincident with everyone here noting the change, I got a streak=3-like opponent for…[Read more]

All,
@hank has responded regarding the issue with spells.
This is a known issue that we’re working on solving right now. Sadly it isn’t something that we can easily change for the live game. Our lead programmer is on it and I’ll give you news when I have some to give. All I can say is that we’re really sorry this is happening and we’re working o…

Hi Hank,
Glad to hear you are working on fixing this. Please let us know when it is patched. Until then, I’ll probably kill time on my daily commute with something other AB2 :/

I’ve seen this mentioned with respect to the arena, but I am also experiencing it during campaign levels.
Spells awarded through the bird back function are currently being counted against the player and deducted from their total. In addition, the bird back function (for me at least — your milage likely varies) is awarding relatively increased…[Read more]
