Beat the toucan with the Sloth. 1 nature hit was a critical. Thanks all.

Now I'm working on the gold lion. Ugh.

after 5 or 6 times with magmacore, thorilla, skeletal and yak-o-lantern, I tried second time with sceletal and first hit was critical

Toucan down in two tries! First lost with Sloth, then won with Ocean Owl - first hit was critical.

Yay! I don't think I've used my Ocean Owl before in a tournament... He'll be my go-to Toucan fighter now. I also noticed that they have the same exact wings, lol.

Congrats to all of you that are going steady in this tournament.

My odds have never been this bad, 19 wins and 16 losses so far.
Last tournament I had one loss against two wins, this time it is almost one to one, with the ultra opponents yet to come.

I guess this treebra is not meant to arrive in my forest, but there is still plenty of time. Chances may turn..

I have about the same ratio as you, 22 wins and 19 losses. I feel like it's still very beatable, just as long as I don't get stuck a long time on more than a couple levels.

Last tournament I beat early on Saturday. I've been playing this one the exact same way so I'll be curious to see if this one takes a lot longer or not. If each round takes an average of 3 tries, I'd finish sometime around dinner tomorrow (so a few hours longer). That's probably about what I expect at this point.

The first tournament I tried was a disaster as I picked at random (well I put a bit of thought into it!), but thanks to the first post of this thread I'm doing really well with this one, so just wanted to say thanks very much for all the info :)

I'm at level 19 so far - only 3 loses (and 1 of them, was level 2 before I'd looked at this thread) - I've actually been really surprised that it has been so easy - I passed 14 levels with a critical on the first hit!!!!!!!

I've only used my cosmic pheonix, magmacore, thorilla, grassquatch, hydro yak, iciclaw and falconch (all level 10-13), so no gems (I've only just finished evolving my crystal unicorn and it is still a low level). I've been playing less than 2 months and I don't actually have a lot of the animals that other people have posted in their lists! I fear I may start to stuggle with later levels though!

It seems to me that this tournament they made all the animals the same difficulty to beat. I usually have very few losses early on, then later more losses than wins. But my relatively low win rate day 1 has only gone down to a 53% win rate for day 3. So I'm not worried any more. And Bambamstad and anyone else hovering at 50-60% win rates, don't give up hope!!!

I finally had to ultimate hit the toucan. I tried ocean owl, vinatour, steamtrunk, sloth, and a few others and finally just gave up. I used the ultimate hit and then went to bed. This morning I started with level 23 and beat the gold lion on the first try with my level 15 vinatour. Nice way to start the day! Waiting for my hour to go so I can tackle level 24.

And I got my ultimate hit gems back by installing Treasure Run. So I broke even!

My level 15 Cosmic Phoenix just lost to the round 28 Level 18 Emerald Dragon for the 7th time. I guess its payback for the last tournament when I got him in the first try. My record in this tournament is 27-23 so far.

Round 21: 1 try - Won with Magmacore
Round 22: 2 tries - Won with Ocean Owl (Lost with Ancient Sloth)
Round 23: 2 tries - Won with Magmacore (Lost with Magmacore)

So far I don't really have any complaints about how the tournament is going... I don't mind it taking 2-3 tries, it's only when it starts taking much longer that it really bothers me. I had one round last tournament that I was stuck on for 8 tries, that was the worst. I do expect it may take 6 tries in some of the last rounds, especially against the Unicorn and Emerald, since that's what happened to me last time, but at least I'm prepared for that so I shouldn't get too frustrated.

Good luck with the unicorn, it went down on the first try to my Cosmic Phoenix. Finally beat the round 28 level 18 Emerald Dragon with my level 15 Cosmic Phoenix on the 8th try. So I guess they balanced out.

The unicorn took me like five tries to beat, but I'm at level 28 (the emerald dragon) now. I anticipate he's going to give me difficulty since I don't really have a good counter to him, so I'm probably just going to have to roll the dice enough times until I get lucky.

Some people are so close, now! Good luck to everyone! :)

so glad that worked for you! I'm happy to post, I was a little worried it might come across as bragging...that is not my intent at all, just trying to help people with suggestions about what worked for me. So glad it worked for you too. My nemisis is coming up...the Emerald Dragon...I have never defeated him in any tournament without an ultimate hit....I have more time this go around since
I'm home on vacation so maybe I'll get lucky and my nightmare will take him down.

Beat the Treeba on the second try with a level 15 Aurora Pegasus. Managed to finish the tournament with 24 losses, much better than the 33 losses in the Thanksgibbon tournament. Other than the 7 losses I had on round 28, the last 6 rounds went well for me with only 10 losses. I hope that gives those of you still battling some extra hope and I wish you good luck.

Now I can concentrate on the avalanche of Fairy Ferrets that await me trying to breed a Reindeer.

I have lost to unicorn since last evening, playing every hour. Surely a level 15 nightmare should be able to get this done. It is interesting that in this tournament I have been using level 15 commons and winning. ThAt is until my unicorn hatched. Now I haven't won a round since. Have I been kicked up to a different level of crazyness?

I've had my Unicorn in both the last tournaments and haven't had any trouble until now....

I feel like it always takes me the most tries against Unicorn and Emerald in the tournaments. But yeah, it shouldn't be taking 15-20 tries or anything and I have unfortunately heard stories about that before. :( I really hope you beat it soon. Hope I do too! I'm about to try again in a few minutes.

ETA: And now up to 7 losses. :mad:

I'm not sure if anyone else notice that Toucan is now weak to rock?!! Everytime I use toucan against a rock type, it's attack is weak? Am I missing something or did TL change rules again?? By the way, I'm at level 28 and just lost 15 times in a row, and most of my dark type are at level 14, think they also changed outcome on winning!!!

Yessss, 18 fails before Lillith, my Gargolem beat the emerald dragon!!!! Only for the next battle took another 14 fails to win. But all through those fails, I just beat the entire tournament WITHOUT using the ultimate move ONCE!!!! Ahhhh, soooo hard to do lol!!! In the end, I love Lotus, my Nightmare creature!!!! She did give me the most wins, then it was Ash my Jackalope, who was my second most used creature!!!

Failed yet again to unicorn, well over 20 times now. Could I simply be programmed to not beat this level? I know all about odds, but I have tried with very strong opponents. Do I just give up? Has any of you heard of this kind of luck? I really can't be buying more gems. This is just so discouraging. Been setting a timer throughout this whole tourney, and now this. Very unhappy.

simpassoc - that sounds like exceedingly bad luck to me. I know it definitely took me at least 5-6 tries to get through unicorn and now I'm stuck on emerald dragon, so I think the odds for critting them is just generally relatively low.

I think there are others who take that many tries. I took about six to seven times until I finally beat the unicorn.

I'm really sorry.

I have a suspicion that the game is set up to just stick some players on a particular level. Maybe to test whether you WILL buy gems or not? I don't know. But I do know that you're not the first person that this has happened to - I saw it happen to others in the last tournament, and I'm worried that I may be one as well although I don't have near as many losses as you.

I'm not really sure how else to explain it. I've beat the Unicorn and Emerald in other tournaments before, usually takes 6 tries or so. I cannot imagine that the odds are the same in a case where you wind up losing so many times. Even if they are, it's terribly unfair for the game to be set up to allow someone to be able fail a single level for 20+ tries. Unfortunately I'm sure there's no "mercy" win that kicks in at any point.

At best, the game is insensitive, and at worse, deceitful (if it actually does "block" certain players from passing a level on some tournaments).

Stick with it! Don't give up. If it's just really bad luck, it may even out in the last few rounds and you'll likely even beat some on the first try. Either way PLEASE come back and tell us how the rest of the tournament winds up for you. I'd like to know if it is actually possible to be stuck on one level for 3 straight days. If so, I'm going to have some things to say about that.

I finally just beat the Unicorn on my 8th try. I am so sorry to anyone who has had way worse luck :( so unfair.

Simpassoc, on the last tournament, it took me more than 20 tries & over 24 hrs to finally beat the Crystal Unicorn with my lvl 13 Skyger. Before beating it with the Skyger, I tried everything ( like you are ). I'm dreading the Unicorn this time, I still have the Troll to beat. I'm really sorry bc I know how defeating it feels to be on one battle for so long.

I really hope you beat that Unicorn next battle. Best of luck to you.

Seriously?! Is my game faulty (in a good way!)?! This is way too easy!!

Maybe swap things up w the unicorn and just try all your lv 15s even if the colors dont make sense?? Good luck!! I am not at the unicorn on any of my accounts yet so i dont have much real advice yet. My family is on round 20 now...

Failed again. Have tried toucan, level 15 skyger, level 15 nightmare, level 15 pony, level 15 elephantom, level 11 sea drake and level 11 troll. Mostly nightmare though. I'm going to bed. Good night to all, I have a pounding headache. :(

Hm. Well, that is lower than I am. I think it's fair for the game to be a little easier on lower levels because they can't be expected to have as many high level animals. I'm level 40 (max). Oh well, maybe you just have good luck!

simpassoc, if you've got the terrorier from the battleground, I managed to beat the Crystal Unicorn with my level 11 Terrorier (see below for my new results).

Now, I've meanwhile reached round 28. Here are my new results:

Round 20 lost 4 times with lv 9 Thorilla, lv 15 Ancient Sloth & lv 15 Armordillo (mostly using earth and once electric)
Round 20 won with lv 15 Ancient Sloth (1 strong & 1 crit earth)
Round 21 lost 2 times with lv 12 Rampage and lv 15 Armordillo (using earth and fire) while feeding my Magmacore
Round 21 won with lv 11 Magmacore (1 strong & 1 crit earth)
Round 22 lost with lv 14 Pandaffofil and lv 15 ancient sloth (all nature)
Round 22 won with lv 15 Ancient Sloth (2 strong & 1 crit nature)
Round 23 lost with lv 11 Magmacore and lv 15 Armordillo (all earth)
Round 23 won with lv 15 Ancient Sloth (2 strong & 1 crit earth)
Round 24 lost with lv 12 Rampage (stupidity, thought I was still on round 23) and with lv 15 fairy ferret (both all fire)
Round 24 won with lv 15 Fairy Ferret (1 crit & 1 strong fire)
Round 25 won with lv 11 Terrorier (1 strong & 1 crit dark)
Round 26 lost 6 times with lv 12 & lv 13 Hydro Yak, with lv 15 Fairy Ferret and lv 15 Ancient Sloth

I was getting really frustrated and put my lv 3 Vinotaur into the flower to raise that while wildly growing food for the Hydro Yak. I calculated how much food it would cost and most importantly time it would cost to raise the Vinotaur to level 15, The current Thanksgiving Gibbons deal looked great regarding the food, but then in the end...

Round 26 won with lv 13 Hydro Yak (2 crit nature)
Round 27 won with lv 12 Iciclaw (1 crit water)
Round 28 lost twice with lv 12 Terrorier (2 strong dark, 1 strong fire)

Will try on with the lv 12 Terrorier while growing food. Though, I'll rather take some more losses with the lv 12 Terrorier before spending the slowly gathered food on him too early. I'm also prepared to finish the last round with an ultimate hit, just to put an end to it and be able to do something else. Hope this helps. Oh, and because the account levels just got mentioned: I'm meanwhile on level 24 (due to the food growth). :-)

Update:

After about two more losses with my lv 12 Terrorier at Round 28, I decided to raise it to level 13 and on the following attempt:

Round 28 won with lv 13 Terrorier (1 strong fire, 1 strong dark & 1 crit fire)
Round 29 lost twice with the lv 11 Magmacore and once with my lv 12 Rampage (trying earth and fire)
Round 29 won with lv 12 Magmacore (1 strong & 1 crit fire)
Round 30 won with lv 15 Fairy Ferret (1 strong nature, 1 strong fire & 1 crit nature)

Good luck everyone still battling! :)

Aww, that's a pity if you wanted that creature. Have you reported your issues in the Bug report forum or to the staff? I wish you best of luck that it will get resolved soon!

I only keep getting a bug when visiting other players' forests. Then suddenly all creatures, some habitats (or what you call each land piece) and pieces of decoration vanish - like it just happened again. Now I have to shut down and restart my device. That's a bit annoying.

Stuck on Round 29 against the Zapra. I'll plug away tomorrow afternoon. My child is stuck on the toucan. With Christmas activities this weekend, neither of us will have much time to finish. I've been setting a timer during the day for two days now and playing both our games, hoping we can be done or almost done by the weekend. I think I'll make it but I'm not sure about the second account. My child has less animals leveled up than I do. Except the Unicorn on that account is at a 14!!!! ready to be tucked in when the tourney is over.

Wishing everyone luck. And if anyone has specific suggestions on the Zapra, I'm game! Thanks.

I was lucky to breed some rare and super rare creatures, though I didn't manage to breed the Cold Turkey. And instead of breeding the Pumpkin Panda or the Harvest Hedgehog while their gem goals were active, I bred the Unicornopia. My Magmacore needs 4800 apples to reach level 12. That's why I'm hesitating to raise the Terrorier to the next level (aside from still lacking about 3000 apples for that). It was so time consuming to get the Hydro Yak to level 13. Right now my playing consists of constantly growing peaches with an hourly break to battle the various enemies.

Finally, the rampage prevailed. critical on the third fire hit. Next is round 30!

Amareiha, I spent time after my first tourney (where I struggled) leveling up select super or rares that I had in order to be prepared for the next tourney. My child didn't do this and I think that's why battles on that account are more of a struggle. Just remember to diversify. Don't level up all of the animals with the same elements. Have at least one of each kind. I also leveled all of my basic element creatures to 15's. Many times I can win with those when the supers or rares don't work.

I don't find that the level matters much past level 10. Level 15 might be better, but I honestly don't think a couple levels between 10-14 make any difference. So, I wouldn't stress too hard about planting tons of apples!

I say this because all my super rare fighters are only level 10... I seem to be having about the same level of success as everyone else with higher levels. I won the Thanksgibbon tournament pretty early, and should beat this one early too, though not quite as much.

Thank you for the suggestion. I've been planning to raise some of my super rares (and some rares) to level 15, like the Magmacore, the Hydro Yak, the battleground trolls, the Terrorier and the still small Vinotour.

The Unicorn and Emerald always take me several tries... Like 6 or so. Super rare dark-fire is best for Emerald, but you could also try dark-water or dark-electric super rare. Terrorier is a good choice though, I'm sure he will eventually get it. Good luck!

Ironically this breeding pair was meant for Account1 (which is higher lvl but still Unicornless). When I saw the 45 hrs I actually jumped with joy thinking finally got a Unicorn for this account. Sigh! Also this Account1 which has been leading by 5 rounds to Account2 is now stuck at Emerald.

Meanwhile Account2 with my Lvl 12 Unicorn has blazed through last 4 rounds and overtaken Account1.

Sounds so much like the Tortoise and Hare race..lol

Good luck all...


Edit : Finally took out Emerald18 with OnyxOx12 DsDsDc (Account1)
Took out Zapra19 with Magmacore9 FsRc (Account1)

I personally always stick with one, but I don't have any others that are good options against the Unicorn. Just Ox.

Thank you. I'm at 7 losses right now, 4 with my lvl 12 Ox, 1 with my lvl 15 Skyger, 1 with my lvl 11 Terrorier & 1 with my lvl 10 Thanksgibbon. The last 2 losses were the Ox. I guess I'll just stay with him awhile...eventually the Unicorn has to lose.

It took my level 14 Gargolem 8 tries to take out the Unicorn. Very annoying lol. I tried my level 11 Pegasus once and lost so went back to the Gargolem. I didn't have my Pegasus last tournament so decided to stick with the one that took out the Unicon last time. Ill most likely use the Gargolem for the Emerald too. I think that's my next battle since I just got past the Pumpkin Panda. Good luck! I know how frusterating it can be to lose over and over but luckily we still have plenty of time.

Congratulations and thank you! I've finished too and will post screenshots in my next post.

Regarding the Crystal Unicorn: Is that a Seahorse in the breeding den with the Fire Glider? Just out of curiosity (I know, it might not work for me), what levels are your Seahorse and the Fire Glider at and which creature did you put into the den first?

And I'm also done. I took down the Treebra on my first attempt with my lv 15 Fairy Ferret (1 strong nature, 1 strong fire & 1 crit nature). Though I won't breed it within the next hours. After the Falconth is done, I'll put the Pflanther on the nest, because I noticed in the breeding thread, that my Ocean Owl and my Vinotaur should make an ideal breeding pair for a special bird. :D

Attached below are a screenshot of my empty arena and the Treebra in my storage.

Hi Amareiha

Thank you and congrats to you too. It's actually Aquatter and not Seahorse. Both FGlider and Aquatter are lvl 4 only and FGlider goes first. As I mentioned in my earlier post this combo is actually meant for my other account which is higher lvl but still unicornless. Was trying to breed Reindeer or OceanOwl (for future pairing for Toucan lol) and wrongly pick this pair. Anyway the income's good so no complaints lol.

p/s I also found out from breeding calculator about OceanOwl x Vinotaur being the only breeding pair for Toucan and has been trying to breed OceanOwl for quite sometime now but sadly no luck so far. Well good luck to us trying lol...


Congrats!! That's really awesome & good to know that the Pegasus worked against the Treebra.

Now I'm stuck on Magmacore. Level 15 Sloth lost 3 times and my level 12 Griffon lost once. I'm going to try my Sloth again because the last few tournaments he kicked butt. This tournament is giving me much more trouble than the last few. I barely got stuck last time. I guess it's my turn for multiple fails lol

Griffin is the stronger choice! Sloth is weaker against Magmacore because Nature is weak to Fire.

Failure again against unicorn. Isn't level 15 nightmare about as strong an opponent as it gets? My toucan is at level 9, and it would take too long to evolve him further, unicorn is at level 11. I have all commons at level 15, as well as level 15 sloth, daredevil, elaphantom, fire fox, griffin, yak, rampage, and vinotar. I have given most of these at least one try (I am well over 30 fails). Any suggestions?

Yes Nightmare is the strongest choice... it's actually the best possible choice in the game other than the Toucan (potentially). You could give the Toucan a few tries even at level 9, otherwise you're probably best just sticking with Nightmare.

I'm really sorry this is happening to you, I honestly believe that the game has glitched on you at this point. I would consider maybe turning your phone off and on a few times, and potentially uninstalling and reinstalling the app (I've never done this but I heard it can help with breaking people out of breeding ruts). Maybe that would help snap you out of this. It certainly seems like a glitch because there is no way a level 15 Nightmare should lose so many times to the Unicorn.

Thanks for this great suggestion. Although I just failed again, at least I went into combat with hope for the first time in over a day. I think I will reinstall and then use nightmare each hour until I either succeed or go down in flames and exhaustion. If the programmers are actually able to set up this kind of scenario, it echoes what is wrong with society today. I just want to have fun playing a silly game. I won't fill up the forum anymore with these posts, but I will let you all know the final result. Thanks to all the advanced players here that have given such good advice. I am level 40, and with your help I have never had difficulty with a single tournament or battle until now. Good luck to all.

I would give it a few attempts between each reinstall, because I do find it can take 6-8 attempts to beat it and you don't want to reset yourself if the game is programmed that way. But I do hope that once is the charm! Definitely let us know!

I think people are mostly near even, yeah. At least most people seem to be finishing up. (I just lost for the 5th time on Treebra. Wtf? I have appropriate counters to it and everything!) Which is why I was cautioning everyone not to get so cranky at a couple losses at the start because these kinds of things even out, but people tend to be somewhat reactionary.

Not that there aren't examples of incredibly good luck (GC5410 on the previous page) or bad luck (simpassoc and the unicorn). That's bound to happen when there are thousands of people playing a game of chance.

Oi! Anyone noticed the price of doing battle got jacked way up? Instead of 1,000 quid it is now 1,250 quid! TL doing what TL does best allowing you to make money they can take right back. That is 7500 more than the other tourneys. I am still trying to rid myself of all the shale on the expansions I have opened. Grrrrrr

Must be level related, mine only cost 750 each

Yes and I shall remind you my incredible lack of luck in the Thanksgibbon tourney, where I had 27 losses vs the Emerald Dragon (round 28) and was not able to beat it even though I had over 48 hrs for the last 3 rounds. It really felt like it was a bug, just impossible to win without an ultimate. So I feel your pain, simpassoc, I hope your final result will be different from mine.

On another note, I just beat the Emerald Dragon (also round 28) in this new tournament at my first try... I couldn't believe it. Now I have a chance to win my first tourney ever (could not make it in any of the previous ones...), but I'm not going to cheer until the final critical has fallen, because I learnt that you can never be sure to win.

Nightmare, Onyx OX, Cosmic Phoenix, and Thanksgibbon are the best choices of the ones you have listed. I would go with the highest level creature you have from that set.

Whew. Finally beat the Treebra. Took 7 times which feels like way too many since I was alternating between my crystal unicorn (lvl 10 - great match) and my level 15 vinotaur (nature/fire, also a good match). Goes to show that 'luck' isn't always on your side even when the elements are. Can't complain since I'm finally done, though! Next tournament I will write out how I did from the beginning. (:

edit: that said, I have no idea when I'll have time to hatch this egg. @__@ I still have the twilight troll to hatch, too (20 hours?) and meanwhile I'm stuck trying to breed the christmas animals. On top of that, I haven't had any chance to breed dark/electric animals because I'm new. Heh.

Yes it does help to delete and reinstall game, I fought Emerald about 15 times or so and couldn't win but then deleted and reinstalled as suggested and then beat it after about 3 losses. Thanks everyone who posts tips!

I've had the worst luck this tournament. 1st lost 7hrs of game play due to connection problems on all my TL games. Have battled hard all the way to the unicorn but now have been stuck for over 24hrs. I've used my onyx ox level 13. Used my level 12 skyger, dream bat level 9, bansheep level 9 and all of my other dark hybrids. Have uninstalled and reinstalled the games 3 times now to no avail. Does anyone have anymore suggestions on beating the unicorn with only 10hrs left im feeling defeated. Honestly this game is no longer fun since I progessed to the higher levels.

Nature-Fire... Vinotaur is best if you have one level 10 or over, otherwise your highest level rare Nature-Fire.

What can I use on Zapra? I just need that & treebra but if I can get pass Zapra I'll probably use my gems on treebra before time runs out. I got like 8 hrs I think.

Use Magmacore, or the Earth-Fire Halloween animals, if any of them is over level 10. Otherwise your highest level Earth-Fire for Zapra. It's the ideal match up, so I'd just keep using it.

As for Treebra, at least take a shot at him! If you have a Unicorn, it seems to win very quickly over Treebra. Otherwise, your best Nature-Fire.

My kids are both stuck on crystal unicorn too. We've been trying endless lv 15 skygers, lv 14 ember bear, lv 10 gargolem... Nothing is getting that neccessary crit. I was lucky and i beat it with my lv 15 Skyger.

I have been stuck on treebra all day. :/

Keep trying your highest and rarest darks! Good luck!

Thanks I don't have Magmacore so I'll give the Halloween one a try. If I have time left I'll give treebra a try but I don't have unicorn & this Zapra is taking me a while to defeat so I have 30 gems saved for just in case.

I finally beat the unicorn with onyx ox lvl 13 after 24 hrs of battling and also deleting and reinstalling app for the 4th time. I feel for your kids, we as adults can deal with the defeats and failed battles (frustrating more than anything) but kiddies get so disappointed and really feel the need to get a particular animal especially in the tournaments. Goodluck to u (if u r still battling)and your kids (sympathy hugs for them) and thanks for your suggestions.

Thanks for the good luck! They still have time... And I am willing to buy them each a few ultimates if needed since they tried so hard.

12-07-14, 05:06 PM
I'm not sure this helps but I rarely listen to what's best and just go with what works for me. My Sloth beat the Treebra first time. My Sloth also took out Zapra. Anytime something is weak to either Nature or Earth I use him even if he's "weak" to a certain other element. If that makes sense. Good luck guys!

Yay! Got it last night just before bedtime! This has to be the easiest tourney ever for me...was battling right up to last minutes with thanks gibbon,used gems to speed etc but still didn't get it but on this one,the worst I got stuck on was about 4 tries and only one one animal (panda,I think)...weird huh? Maybe TL felt bad cos they *****ed me of my turkey cos I got the citrine peregrine straight after missing that too! Lol

The exact same thing happened to me with about 15 seconds left. I saw it in my storage and then the pyropony sync happened and it was gone. What makes me especially mad about this is that none of my gems are back. How can the sync lose the pony but not return the gems that were used seconds before to get it? I spent 62 gems to get this animal at the end, only to lose it! Emailing TL support right now. I really hope they make this right.

I always take a screen shot of the Victory picture like up above and take a picture of the animal in my storage just incase it disappears.

Congrats to all who won the treebra! Wish I was one of your number. First tournament animal that will be absent from my forest unless another way to win it without shelling out any hard cold cash comes up.

I worked on this one. Really obsessively worked on it. Seems like I should have had a chance!

I did sleep a little, eat a little, and go to work. I made myself walk away from the game every now and then: I enjoyed the company of my husband. I contemplated life with a 19 year old, watched a bit of football with 23 & 26yr olds, drove a 13 yr old to activities talked story with a 7 yr old and played with a two year old....which seems important. I feel I was still obsessed enough that I should have had a fighting chance......

My goal was to win the treebra without using any gems since I have had to use a few ultimate attacks on every tournament so far. My time ran out before I beat level 26. I did previously have a personal goal to win all tournament animals even if it took using my earned gems....but my desire to have a unicorn is making me contemplate having a goal to save 2000 gems. With perseverance that seems more doable than breeding one.

Oh well, the absence of the treebra in my forest will be a testament to my quest for the unicorn.


In the time being, maybe I'll breed one!

readysetgo888
12-08-14, 10:50 AM
Interesting to think about.... because it seems like on average, most people have a pretty even win/loss record at the end of the tournament, that would mean that you need to try 60 times. You have 5 full days plus a little extra on the first day (so like 5 and a half days really). I'm estimating that that means that you need to try 10-11 times a day in order to win without using any gems. If you don't speed, that's about 10 hours a day. Assuming that most people are awake around 16 hours a day, that's certainly a big chunk of time - and it needs to be every day of the tournament.

I do think that it's good to know the number of tries that you'll probably be required to have before you start - to avoid frustration. If I knew that it was on a week that I wasn't going to be able to play that many times, I'd probably not even want to attempt it at all.

@saucysammis - sorry to hear you didn't get it. Good luck on getting your unicorn, though!

@readysetgo888 - yeah, it makes sense that this kind of game event would take a lot of time involvement. (To be fair, it's mostly just setting a timer and opening up the game for like, 30s, but that can be disruptive depending on what you're actually doing, and not everyone has that opportunity!) There would be no incentive to spend gems if you could finish the tournament in 3 days, or if you could finish it in 5 but had 10 days to do it, or whatever. The fact that a streak of bad luck could mean you're on one animal for like 7 hours straight isn't fun, either. That's usually the tradeoff in games like this -- you either put in time, or you put in money (which you put time in to get earlier).

This was my first tournament and at least it felt like I was visibly working towards a goal, though. I spent a week trying to breed the cold turkey to no success, and there's no real way to sway your fate there (ie by choosing your strongest animal or whatever... that's not really how breeding works).

Now that this tournament is done, I would suggest that anyone who had difficulty start preparations for the next tournament. I would suggest reviewing the information in the Making Sense of the Battlegrounds thread and determine which creatures you need to breed and upgrade for the next tournament.

I agree with you - I don't really wish the tournament was easier... I don't expect it to be so easy that everyone can do it without putting in a good chunk of time. As you said, it's either put in the time or put in the money. I strongly prefer this model to the "odds are super low no matter how many times you do it" model of breeding, but I'm choosing to play this game anyway.

I'm more just putting that information out there about how much time it takes to do it for free so that others might be able to set their expectations reasonably.

Didn't finish it, one acct was stuck on lvl 28, the other 2 were stuck on lvl 25. Trying so hard at least to get 1 on either one off acct but none.
I never missed any dragons from the tournament of dragon story, but tourney here is harder than DS. I already play from the very first day of tourney, well minus sleeping time, cooking time, feeding my kids, etc. maybe I just need to go back on DS only........

You can email them at support@teamlava.com. Be sure to include your storm8 ID, the game this is about, and a summary of what happened. I'd also include your screenshot of winning the treebra. You'll get a generic auto-reply first and it might take them a while to process it but hopefully they'll give us our missing animals. If not, I'm definitely not spending any gems on a tournament again. Good luck!

@xxxe: I'll post on this message board if I get a response ;)

12-08-14, 06:28 PM
I don't particularly wish it was easier.... And I did know the obligation going in. I did refer to making sense of the battle grounds and I did obsessively scan the win stories that were posted. I did battle at least 8-10 times on most days. I do think one additional day would open up the tournament for more winners, I would have been one for sure if I'd had 12 more hours. but I think the time frame is calculated so that we must use those gems.

So, no, not looking for pity or an injustice party. My post was just my story of my experiment of not using gems to ultimate attack as I had used in previous tourneys. That's what gems are for. I played as obsessively as I could, and could have won the treebra if I had used a couple of ultimate attacks and speeded on the second to the last day. I had enough gems to do those things.

My post is for posterity I guess, to note that a player who plays obsessively, reads all related posts but plays
without gem animals,
without using gems,
who has to work at a job where hourly visits to the game are not possible, and
Has a life where hourly visits are not probable for more than 10 in a day
Has no chance to succeed in a tournament.
