Levels that have been ruined by the new fishes

Please can contributors stick to the topic for this thread: I wish to find levels that have specifically been ruined in the way they work by the introduction of the new fishes. This means that the original mechanisms of the design do no longer function.

(If you have general grumbles about the new fishes please use the official feedback threads or create your own)

    Here is one such level as an example:

    8095

    The mechanism asks for players to break the order locks first which will release two sets of yellow wrapped candies, which when used as a combo will break the cages to release all the dragons around them.

    The new unintelligent fishes target the cages themselves. This has the unfortunate effect that they will help the dragons drop to create a space, which will then make one of the yellow wraps drop down the portal away from the other. This loss makes this level effectively impossible to pass:

    I also would like to include level 6119:

    For some reason King have reduced the moves from 25 to 15. This video shows how the level should be played. It used to be a clever and enjoyable level as shown here:

    As you can see from the video the mechanism to pass this level requires players to first destroy the rainbow twist and then use double wraps to destroy the rainbow twist underneath the key portals. Once the licorice is unlocked players can use combos of special candies to break the licorice shells. This mechanism requires 25 moves and has been completely ruined by reducing moves to 15. We are now apparently expected to completely bypass the clever and enjoyable level design and wait for the fishes to come dropping to break the licorice shells. Pointless, boring, frustrating. I am starting to hate this game so much @QueenB . Please could you pass this on to the design team. These were some of the best levels in Candy Crush and the new changes are just reducing the whole game to s h i t . I note that in the official feedback thread the master of Candy Crush @Johnny_Crush whose video I have shown above, had some very angry comments to make as well, and it would be good if the team would actually take note of some of our comments coming from the game experts here, such as Johnny Crush @MannyFae and myself.

Hey! Would you like to give us your opinion?
