If I was preparing for 2026 all star, I would create a new account, start from level 0 and strategically level up and start banking boosters/gold now. Starting a low level is ideal for the tournament.
That's what I did last year. I would recommend anyone wanting to do this should not bank a "suspicious" amount of gold as King will deny such players access to the event and then you will have created that account all for nothing. I would suggest you play on two or three devices and use the gold to buy boosters and then share these out over the different devices, so you have no "suspicious" amount on any device nor a "suspicious" amount of gold. Then again, by All Stars 2026 King will have changed the rules of play and access again, so whatever you do to prepare it will probably be pointless. And tediously boring.
What about for continues (10+ gold/continue), especially when the Super Charger is active?
I think if you keep the gold count below 10K at the start of the tournament, you should be fine. You collect gold as you play, so gold isn't critical. The booster inventory is what really matters.
You said something about "booster inventory." Should we keep stored booster count to 100 or less for each type?
Is that so? Be on the lookout for Ben and Verissa in your group. Given their title of returning champions, some of their prize winnings will cover tens of thousands of Gold Bars to try to protect their lead, which is used to refill their booster inventory all the way to the max (99+ for each). If their Gold Bar supply runs dry, they could try all they can to refill it back close to 10K.
If you get placed with one or both of them, you may not stand a chance against them. They WILL run away from you by using Party Poppers.
I have over 10K gold and 10K for each booster type. I'm prepared for war.
Good๐. This kiwibird97 player from yesterday in their post keep saying it's useless to play when you see ben or previous winner in your leaderboard. I love it when you give it back to those who use this ben/previous winner name to intimidate/discourage any player from playing. I wish you and @christinewupp being one of the finalist. Anyone can take over any previous winner. I don't know about @mannyfae if she/he is qualified for final 3/3 knockout. If yes I want her/him to be in finals as well.
Good luck to you all.
You will need to look at Ben's stats often and see how you compare to him. If Ben's win streak is snapped (I believe that the only likely reasons are that there are no more possible switches after a shuffle or if the Magic Mixers are destroyed too early resulting in insufficient order targets available, because Ben is likely to use a continue for extra moves in other cases), then that will be the best chance to catch up and take the lead.
Wouldn't it be crazy if there were flames surrounding tough opponents? That could change the course of the tournament.
(Last year's All Stars did not have the detailed stats or last active time for each player.)
I don't want to look at anyone stats. Nor do I care. All I'm saying is every player knows/have an idea how 3/3final knockout is going to be. Every player is equal and same, though previous winner may/may not have slight edge over others. Any new /experienced player with good strategy and speed could beat previous winner(s) in final knockout. Who knows even previous winner(s) can be selected as finalist again. I'm going to wait and see who are those 10 finalist. I wish them all good luck. Peace.
