Best Of

Is your level 6681 like mine @Pierre_Zell ?

This is a notorious level that will always leave you one toffee short because it has insufficient moves. It's literally impossible. To win without extra moves, start the level with the lucky candy booster (the one with a checkmark). It will spawn additional toffees for you.

Level 8328 is now level 8319.

I'm sorry I have to challenge you on that @Tababy07 . Do you really mean to tell me you can get 600 blue on this level:

Also if you want to play an episode in 12 minutes then you won't be buying extra moves as it will then take longer. Are you referring the same game of Candy Crush I am playing?

Okay, I've googled it and I now I know why you are writing out of date stuff. You've googled it too!

Here is what Google says:

"Level 8328 is widely considered the best level for farming blue candies in Candy Crush Saga, often yielding 600+ blue candies per play. It is a three-color level (red, blue, orange) with 25 moves, making it an easy, efficient choice for collecting blue candies."

Please don't spread out of date nonsense in this thread. None of the claims you read on the internet are true in 2026. The game has changed. As you can see above so has level 8323.

Try 7000s too

Level8323 has a good number you can get 600 in one play because of its complexity and buying moves

It's the combination of the two @Alienscar . I can score that much in one episode if playing the right levels and having taken a look at the 7000s, they probably are the best still with the most human written levels and lots of 4 colour boards. I am hoping to reach there in the last round. I have also managed to complete an episode in 11 minutes. But in my experience in order to do so you will have to forfeit blues. If you complete a level too quickly then each level will score fewer blues because you play just one or two moves to finish the level. I have tested this out so many times and always come to the same result. I just cannot see how it can be possible in 2026, now that the end of level cascades have been reduced to practically nothing, to score 3000 in 12 minutes.

Check your Events page @Samari55

If you are qualified you should see something similar to what you can see below.

Or on your map screen your widget should look like the below

When you click on it a countdown timer will appear.

If you don't see either of these it is likely that you haven't qualified

All Good

Yeah the tokens equate to 30 hours. But in a 9 hour tournament there would be an additional 6 hours of playing time making it 36 hours.

Now the pressure is on I at least get to try out a different couple different strategies to see what avenue I will eventually go down.

Good Luck

You are absolutely correct @JesseNL and it has been a deliberate strategy for many players in the past during such competitions to join late rater than early. The fact is that there is no real advantage starting early in terms of your chances of going through to the next round with this system: Every player is competing against others who also start at that time. However starting later means you will spend less time crushing. For some people that is a bonus. Others enjoy playing Candy Crush every day and for them to start on the first day makes sense. This system does mean that people who for example have to work Thursday and Friday can then choose the weekend to start participating, which seems fair to me.

The next round, the first final knockout round, will be like this as well, because it is running over four days.

The last of the three final knockout rounds will be held over 24 hours and every player must play non-stop for the entire 24 hour period in order to stand a chance to win.

The middle round is a little more complex and I am not sure about it at the moment. Players who start that round late may find that there are already others way ahead on their leaderboard, so I would advise against it.
