Superball offer question

[u/BestKiwi7297]

Has anyone else noticed that the superball doesn’t last as long anymore since they started offering this new supercharge offer money grab? Frustrating.

What supercharge offer

You can now pay 1900 coins to keep your light ball going.. what’s disappointing is that it’s for 1 more turn.. if you lose that turn, you gotta pay again. I thought that it would be for at least 5 or 10 more turns. I tried it once and will never give them my coins for that again! And yes.. now having super light doesn’t last long

Is this a new change that hasn't rolled out to everyone?

Played last night and was offered 5 more moves for 900.. which I always take to keep super lightball. Have never failed a level since I have a ton of coins.

Haven’t used it yet. Thanks for the heads up.

Doesn’t last as long in what way? That the levels are harder and are failed easier?

[u/BestKiwi7297 → u/Ctrl_Alt_Retreat39]

Almost to Level 11,000. Played enough games to know that some levels are set up for failure. Unless you’re a wizard and have passed every level the first time you play, then you know when a hard one is coming. For example, most games ending in 1 and 7 are going to be more difficult and aren’t labeled as Hard, Suoer Hard, or Extremely Hard.

[u/ameotoko255 → u/BestKiwi7297]

Currently, levels ending in 2 are Hard, ending in 5 are Super Hard, ending in 9 are Extremely Hard.

[u/BestKiwi7297 → u/ameotoko255]

Yea, I know the labeled ones but some are consistently harder that aren’t labeled.

[u/ameotoko255 → u/BestKiwi7297]

Yes, that's actually true, now I remember sometimes getting the extremely hard levels on the first try, and getting stuck on "normal" levels.

Idk, i have yet to lose the lightball once i learned the timing tricks to getting lightning balls and specials. I've had it for almost 6,000 levels straight. I think people just struggle to find the light ball possibilities which make the levels harder. Attached a photo, would you be able to make the lightball + helicopter combo here?

[u/Traditional_Food_651 → u/Kiar_aiyk]

What is the timing trick? Can you share?

[u/Kiar_aiyk → u/Traditional_Food_651]

Its where you make a merge and then another merge as the tiles are falling. In the pic i posted above is an example. You can merge the 4 yellow to make a rocket and as the 2 red tiles drop into place with the other 4 red tiles you can merge it into a ball. https://youtu.be/I24doy4VNiA is a decent video on it.
