Is it worthwhile to keep win streak

Hi would you all say the win streak is worth it to keep to get the boosters. Considering the extra gold bars you may spend?

And it could also help with speed to win episode races.

I also see people can watch ads to earn gold bars but I've never gotten that option, i wonder why?

I only recently purchased anything, and even before purchasing i never got the ads option, i guess i was just excluded from the group

From my experience, maintaining a large win streak is really expensive. The gold bars and boosters required to maintain it are not worth the benefits. In severe cases, you'll go negative on gold bars in an episode because you spend more than the equivalent of an Episode Race of gold bars.

You get quite a bit of leeway in the races. If someone reaches the last level before you do, they'll usually stay stuck there for a while. Just make sure to do these races in one sitting, and don't restart the app in the middle of an episode.

Knowing how to obtain timed boosters without spending gold bars is far more important than maintaining a high win streak. Those timed boosters will stay with you regardless of win streak. Just understand that they'll go away once the timers run out.

(Full disclosure: I am on level 4,791 with over 18,000 gold bars and a ton of boosters in my inventory. I really don't care that much about level win streaks.)

As of now, I am the only one to have a streak of over 1K or higher (it is above 2525). I saw one of the contestants with a win streak of over 100 lose their streak.

Its seems to be a good strategy. Yes I've noticed that I'm having to use boosters and gold bars more then I did before the tournament started. I'm sure that's not an accident, but what are you going to do. If you want to play and play against the top players, gotta cut the fat so to speak.( I've got a feeling I might have reached as far as I can go in the tournament)

But yes i also dont get ads to earn free gold bars. As soon as you spend real money those missions and ads go away. You would have to create a new account and not purchase anything. From what I've read on here anyways.

I think the boosters help more at the start since u get about 5 of them and they're there every round as long as you keep the streak, compared to buying individual boosters in the game once it's started. I also use the streak boosters to help win the episode race gold bars. I usually end up winning a few more gold bars than i spent or cutting even, and winning each episode race. I was just doubting because as of late for the All Stars competition, it's take a lot more gold bars than usual to keep the streak, and I've also never received the option to watch ads for extra moves, which would be useful. Are you also excluded from ads?

Appreciate ur reply 💖

It's up to you and what you feel is more important and helps you the most. Doe the boosters at the start help more or does saving gold bars to buy boosters when you NEED them help more when you stuck?

The answer will be different for everyone, you just have to decide what works for you.

I personally use the win streak boosters to help win the races to get free gold. Combined with what I buy, I stockpile boosters and try to win as much gold bars as I can before I start to run low on boosters.

Rinse and repeat, but i can afford to spend a little. If you can't afford it DONT buy it. Obviously the game wants you to spend real money, that's the whole point, but that doesn't mean you still can't have fun playing as much as you can. Cuz that's the purpose of the game, have fun and CRUSH IT!!

Thanks so u calculated it might be better to lose the streak candies to preserve more gold bars. But if in competition such as all stars or the episode races, do you think you'd move past the levels quick enough without the extra streak candies, or it would about even out?

Thanks again for ur reply

jan126

Thanks yea i think the extra gold bars spent once in a while are probably worth it to go through the levels at a faster rate and have better chance at winning episode races. I was just thinking because of using some extra coins as of late to pass some recent levels

I think it's worth it, it adds extra boosters to the game to beat the level and with a little luck I don't have to use gold bars, in my opinion it's worth it, that's my opinion 😉🌹

I used to try to keep my win streak at all costs but when I really thought about it and did some calculations, it really wasn't worth it to me. I've seen posts from others who feel the same way. It seems like King does this to try to get people to spend money as people think the win streak is the most important thing to do. As for watching ads for gold bars, I know I have the Sweet Cinema that allows me to watch ads for boosters, not gold bars. Once you spend money on the app, it removes that feature from your game.
