The live final of All Stars Tournament should be called “The Cheaters’ Show”. So many reports of inexplicable and unreachable high scores have taken away the credibility of this event. I was first place with high scores in all stages till final knockouts, as I had spent lots of money with boosters and golden bars. Less than five minutes after the beginning of round 01 of final knockout, the creature in first place scored more than 100 k. I had to spend all my boosters (too many boosters) and more than 1000 golden bars in just half an hour to try to reach the cheater. But the more I spent, the more points the scammer got. In the blink of an eye, the cheater increased more 100 k. Obviously it was not human being activity. Reported to King which said would investigate, that doesn’t condone cheating, bla bla bla. At that point, I thought what was happening to me was an isolated case. But it wasn’t. I’ve been reading here many similar reports, but haven’t heard any harmed player say that something had been done, that any cheater had been banned.
Now I ask myself how I could believe in all this stuff.

Funny how there never seems to be a SS of these numbers. Some of the more wild accusations have already been debunked.
Anyway, yes there will be cheaters. No, everyone and their dog is not cheating in these first two rounds of the final. It would be a waste as it would not be needed. The still enough players to beat easily.
Most people simply are no where near as good as they think they are and don't understand why people can easily beat them, then come here with wild stories about 11ty bazillion stars in 5 seconds.

I was also first in the qualifications and first and second round of knockouts. Within 2 minutes, the " person" in first place started winning an incredible amount of stars. Final count was something like 3 or 4 million. It was so ridiculous I gave up hope immediately. I thought these were real competitions with real ppl. It's just not fair.

There would have to be cheaters and bots for me to defend them. Someone saying xyz was cheating does not mean xyz was cheating, no matter how sure they are.
Anyway I am simply correcting some comically faulty assertions, incorrect assumptions of player skill, lack of understanding of game mechanics and legendary hyperbole.
The event has a number of real problems, but the constant "cheater" accusations with less than no evidence is just clutter. It makes it harder to help people who actually need it.

Yes, same with my experience. Day 2 of Round 1/3 me and my opponent were chasing each other very close. Then suddenly in the midnight I noticed my opponent stopped playing. So I continue playing the whole night without sleeping till the next day (Day 3) and gave me a huge lead of 200K points ahead of my opponent. But I didn't stop playing. I continue on until I noticed that my opponent started to move its score. That situation made me alerted to play on and on so I can secure my lead. But instantly within atleast 30 mins my opponent surpass me just like that. Unbelievable to get it higher scored just like that to compare my whole night playing the game just to accumulate a 200K lead. It is like I am playing with computer. I spend a lot of money buying boosters and gold just to get me into the game continuously and beating my opponent. I never loose hope. I still continue to play. Until the end of Round 1/3 my opponent have a 1.3Million lead against me. So unbelievable. I attached a picture where I tried to calculate how much score my opponent gets in each level compare with me. Mostly I gain 3-5K most is 8-10K depending on much purple candies I collected. But my opponent consistently get 16-20++K points each round and not even changing its Level Won.

That's exactly what I'm experiencing right now, too! I've held 1st place in every round and technically this final knockout round 2, but I believe that I'm going against a bot because they're jumping up 100k in as little as 5 min and that's impossible! I'm up to 3 million on mine but like you, I've stayed up and haven't slept yet. 🙃

Some keep defending saying the player cards don't update in real time but how come it's only the players who from nowhere jump to the front have their game cards stats not updating in real time, all other players behind miraculously get their own game cards updating in real time. Several reports later no one is doing anything. How can someone who didn't start the tournament with the group jump in day2 and within 4 hours start to lead with almost a million points. Just don't add up...

Final Knockouts round 2/3
I "Player ID: Itharillys" was in the Lead for this whole round and this player Rudiers, came out of nowhere and did the same thing. I had a very little down time, busting my butt to rack up the points and this guy accrued so many points in such a short period of time it was mind blowing. I did notice that when Rudiers caught up to myself he stayed right there and even stopped receiving points for a good while. I would stay right in there building up my points, but he would come right back racking up sever hundred thousand in a very short period. I honestly made 3,692,649 points and finished second to their 3,694,967 points. I was beaten by 2,273 points in the final 3 seconds of the Final Knockouts round 2/3.
