    1st match:

    Starting on Arena 11, playing 2nd:

    Ready to prepare CB and opponent immediatelly blocks it:

    I free the CB some moves later and win the 1st match:

    I am lucky to enter into a new leaderboard, so I start in a good position! The first is not far away having 27 points:

    Why isn't there and won't be a fair chance... why always in favor of the alleged opponent.. it's no damn fun to play the arena anymore... You don't have and don't get any chances to progress a series from to close....47 hours and nothing happens but the alleged opponent....yes, no, it's clear....with booster and without booster there is no chance...

    I continue! 2nd match, on Arena 14:

    I was lucky to "accidentally" create a colorbomb:

    I used also the CB down in the middle:

    2nd victory:

    @Nikolaos_Prodromidis,

    I can see your strategy to enter late in the tournament and understand why. You have said that entering late, you don't have to somewhat worry about people who are playing the 24hr play.

    What I don't understand is how can you wait? Loving to play Royal Championship, whenever it's open to play, I jump in "head first." I time my 24hr cash in to be 00, 15, 20, or 30 on the clock. Usually I can wait until the 00, but if the leader on my leaderboard is way ahead of me I will select my 24hr play as soon as one of the other options of the comes available. I do sometimes wish that I can wait that long before entering the game. I probably can spend less money buying gold bars and not worry about the over blocking that has taken control throughout Royal Championship. I am not saying that over blocking is not relevant to all play, but more than likely I wouldn't be too much worried about it.

    I wish I had your resolve to wait! I wish you 1st place on your leaderboard!

    Hi @NatalieG!

    The reason that I can enter late is that I have other activities! I go to school where I work every day and I have some extra lessons in the evening!

    I have some other outdoors activities and I spend time with my family and friends!

    So it is easy to "forget" that a new event started!! ๐Ÿ˜

    Thanks that you wished the 1st position for me!

    We can see next if this happened or not!!

    @Nikolaos_Prodromidis,

    I understand having a job, school, family and other activities. Not sure if you are familiar with this saying, "it's not a slight." Meaning, I didn't mean you playing later in the tournament as a "dig", to you.

    I have finished college, I had to retire early from work, for health reasons, and right now my activities are limited to physical therapy and all my family are not in the town I live in, they are two and a half hours away. I used to be able to go home on a regular basis but now I don't have that option, so they travel to see me on the weekends. Sometimes I think they just come because I live about 10 minutes from the beach on the east coast of Florida. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ When they come we go to the beach, have a picnic and just have fun.

    @NatalieG, I just wanted to say that I did not play for several hours because I was at my work at school! Of course I have some breaks and I can play for some minutes, but I completely forgot it! So I did not play some tickets and needed only 1 point to go to the 1st position!

    Of course this is not a big problem, it is not a problem at all! We are just speaking!! ๐Ÿ˜‰

Hey! Would you like to give us your opinion?
