GOOD LUCK everyone! :)

NOTE: I discovered there is a limit to how many images can be in one post so I had to condense the 2 separate charts into one and remove some of the images. I hope this new chart works for everyone and is easy to understand. If there are any errors please post and let me know.

Recommended Fighters to Use *

* The following are recommended to help choose the ideal fighter based on tested strengths/weaknesses, as well as highest rarity. The theory behind choosing an ideal fighter is that an animal of higher rarity may have better odds of landing a 'Critical' against an opponent when using an attack that normally registers a 'Strong' hit. It is also theorized that a high-level fighter may have better odds. It's not a guarantee to win with one of these fighters, but it may increase your odds. Note that ANY animal of ANY level or rarity has a chance of landing a winning 'Critical' using ANY element (even 'Weak' ones).

Well, this is starting off well... Not! Decided to start with the basics, but apparently that's not working this time around.

Thankfully there won't be any stress to finish this one. Not feeling the bunny too much. I guess it's kind of cute as a juvenile.

Good luck, everyone!

BTW, still no timer!

Well, now level 1 Firefox won my level 15 Aperil Fool. Hmm... I'm starting to think the game knows how low I am on gems and is trying to make me buy more. So, I'm not gonna use any gems for this tournament. :)

Round 26: got this far without too much trouble but Treasure Toucan is my old nemesis, that has held me up for days in the past, so we'll see whether I get past this round.

Note on round 22:
So far I hadn't used my Gold Lion which doesn't feel "right" in a tournament (as it used to be my ever-trusty number 1 performer) so I decided to use it against the Bastet in round 22. Unfortunately it didn't win. My next try was the Snapdragon, which also often works well as a "trump card" animal. This time it worked again and it secured a quick victory. I love this animal!

Note on round 23:
I'm not sure which opponent ought to be the better choice for battling the Peryton; on the one hand I have the ultra rare Golden Retriever (strong against gem) and on the other hand I have the super rare Pluma (electric is strong against water and dark is strong against gem). I alternated between them. The Retriever had two losses, the Pluma had one loss and then won.

Note on round 28:
The Retriever was in trouble against Ruby. Time for a "Plan B". I got my previous main "gem-****er", good 'ole Mr. Treent, out of retirement and gave that a try. Wow! It's back with a vengeance! It instantly took out the dreaded Razorback! :)

Well then... with all of the ultra rares out of the way, the door to victory is wide open. Two more rounds to go! I hope it will be smooth sailing on both of them. :P

All done!
This was a pretty smooth tournament with 19 losses vs. 30 wins, and without having spent gems. The tournament was won with some 3 days to spare. :)
The new animals held up pretty well too; the Swan Prince and Anubis did what was required of them, and so did several of my trusty old fighters. I was a bit sad to have only given one chance to the Gold Lion (my previous #1 fighter) and that it lost that round. In next tournaments I'll see if I can deploy that one a bit more too! Well, let's just say that he got to enjoy some R&R after having well earned its ******s in earlier tournaments. :P

30) Dusk Bunny 20 < Treent of Life 15 (2 losses)

After a great start and then another decent run we hit round 26. A chance to see how Egypt fairs against Treasure. Not so well so far but it is a level 19 so I can't expect too much but 4 losses, now 5, 6, and 7 on one round is a lot. That makes more than half my losses in the tournament on this one round.

Well Day 3 is starting off as poorly as Day 2 ended. Swan Princess inaugural battle fails. Patriotter fills in for the princess and takes down the Melodeer. First win for day 3.

Encountered a Level 20 animal at round 28 so I assume we will see three level 20 animals. I don't like this new opponent mapping at all.

It seems as if this is another tournament where the Ultra-rares get their revenge against my troops. I usually have pretty good luck against them but they have already beat me 20 times in this tournament. Round 28 is now officially my worst round ever with 16 losses (previous worst 12 losses). My overall record has been reduced a losing record. This is not fun.

After a disastrous day 3 of the tournament, Day 4 has started the same way a loss by the Treent of Life to the Ruby Razorback. Then it was the Patriotter's turn to lose and then the Sea Drake. Back to Anubis and another lossThis is ridiculous. Well after 22 losses the Treent of Life finally beat the Ruby Razorback.

I was hoping that after the round 28 disaster, that I could get by round 29 on the first try. No Such luck, Harpy goes down on the first attempt. But it wins on the second attempt. So I have twice as many wins on day 4 already as Day 3, 2 wins.

Round 30. Finally made it. First attempt another loss. Have about 3 days to defeat the last animal;, I think I can do it. I took 3 battles but the Treent took down the Dusk Bunny and I finished with my worst record ever.

Day 6 : {1-12}

Overall : {27-32}

I had quite a good run until I hit round 20. After that the losses were consistent :(

My new Obsidian Cyclops did well fighting its first battle against the round 25 terradactyl. I took a risk as it's still level 9 but he done well :)

It doesn't look like I'll be finishing :( with 6 losses into day 6 with 16 hours and 5 rounds left :(

17 losses to the Treasure Toucan, the most stubborn opponent I've ever faced. I paid 8 gems to speed the timer twice, and the Hydro Yak that I abandoned ages ago finally took him down! Looks like Hydro will be my new Sloth! Funny how I only beat the round once I've paid gems :rolleyes:

Three rounds left with 6 hours to go... All opponents level 20s... This isn't looking good. The Ruby Razorback ALONE could take up the last 6 tries :(

Well, this is starting off well... Not! Decided to start with the basics, but apparently that's not working this time around.

BTW, still no timer!

Hey Ho - me too. A level 1 pandoffil beats Epic Pyro Pony. Guess I'll have to go top *** on everyone. Don't feel bad SandyBelle, SAME THING happening here 😦.

Will contact Storm8 this time.

The timer is missing for anyone who updated to the latest version of the original FFS, or anyone who plays the new Animal Story. I haven't seen any word from S8 on the issue, but I'm pretty sure they're aware of it by now. It is really annoying! I read from someone on the forums to plant the 1 hr crops (mana bananas or charm cherries) every time you battle, so your game will tell you every time they're ready to harvest and a new tournament round is ready. I think that tip is great and it works for me! Make sure to turn notifications on in the game settings!

I did not update my FFS nor do I play the new Animal Story and I have had no timer the last two tournaments. I think the no timer phenomenon is universal. But I did plant hr long bananas and just set my phone timer to not miss a round if possible.

Good luck everyone in the tournament! Things I find frustrating: my smaller account has had no losses. My main account lost with two excellent choices on the first round to the panda and it keeps happening. The same animals that work on my smaller account when trying on my main account fail. Does anybody have any idea why this keeps happening all the time?

Oh well, good luck to all!

I did not update my FFS nor do I play the new Animal Story and I have had no timer the last two tournaments. I think the no timer phenomenon is universal. But I did plant hr long bananas and just set my phone timer to not miss a round if possible.

Really?! Wow that's even worse, you didn't change your game in anyway and still got the bug. I really hope TL fix this soon. They have been quite unresponsive these days, I wonder what's going on?

I know this game is so much down to luck, but I am beginning to wonder if there's actually any point to it, i.e. spending lots of time planting and feeding to raise animals to epic and breeding and breeding to get the super and ultra rates but if a level 1 shock fox can take down 3 level 15 ultra rates,it just seems really silly! I've been playing this game since it came out and I am fortunate enough to have the unicorn, Cthulu, peregrine, razorback and just recently the emerald, as well as two treasure animals. However, I have also lost the last three tourneys and quite probably will lose this one too ��

Defeated 3 times, so far, by shock fox, really..... Like I read in the spin the wheel thread, I think it's predetermined if you will win or loose as soon as you enter the tournament grounds, because selection of animals doesn't seem to matter anymore.

Really, I think that's at least part of it. I mean when someone else's 15 Treent defeats the Lvl 4 pea moth, and my same 15 Treent does NOT, what's up??? BTW sweetdeda, I ended up getting my shock fox with ancient sloth Nature two shots critical. Hope that helps.

I think TL needs to consider limiting losses in some way. I am still stuck on round 2 of this tournament, having had my L15 Melodeer (super-rare strong attacker) defeated four times in a row by a L1 lightning leopard (common weak defender). In the Dusky tournament my L15 Treasure Toucan (ultra-rare strong attacker) got defeated FIVE times by the L1 skyger (common weak defender). I mean one defeat like that, okay fine, but four? Five? Why do we bother breeding and feeding these guys? I will often spend gems in the last few rounds of a tournament that I'm doing well in, but when stuff like this happens? I check out and spend nothing.

Based on my experience with these tournaments I usually find that if I start out badly with many loses at the beginning it sort of balances out near the end and I fly through the final opponents with little trouble. If I start off great with several straight wins then I find the last half of the tournament more challenging. I play on 2 accounts and I find if one is doing well and one doing poorly they always seem to catch up to each other eventually.

There have been a few tournaments that have just been unlucky for me (usually these are "flash" tournaments) but in general my wins/loses tend to balance out. :)

It has been said in previous battles that using epics in the early rounds is a disadvantage and I have found myself that epic/high level animals lose to the babies in early rounds. So I agree, is there really any point to feeding and levelling up?

I just finished round 18 and have noticed some differences in the opponent structure of this tournament as compared to the last couple 30 round tournaments. The animals at rounds 7- 16 are at a lower level than the equivalent animals in the prior two 30 round tournaments. Starting with round 17, the level is higher. No Ultra-rares yet even though we usually would see one by Round 12. For some unknown reason, the level jumped from 12 to 16 between rounds 17 and 18 and the prize for round 18 is 10,000 coins but no food.

The changes made the first half easier but I am afraid it will also make the second half more difficult. We will see.

Follow Up: Round 19 is a level 13 Thunder Mammoth, The level 16 Patriotter confuses me even more.

So is Shamrock strong or weak to electric? Because the chart says to use electric against it but also to use it against electric...

Shamrock is Strong to Electric as long as it isn't combined with Fire. Electric is also the only thing I know of that is Strong against Shamrock. I know it doesn't sound logical but a few months ago it seems that S8 started changing the battle element strength of attack so that a Strong attack of A vs B no longer implies that B vs A will be weak.

At least it has been the last few weeks.

It is not a problem, just the way S8 set up the rewards for the various rounds. The reward for Round 18 is 10,000 coins, no food. Round 23 will give you 1,000 units of food in addition to 2,000 coins.

I feel for you QtyPrincess. There's always one round that holds me up an entire day or 12+ hrs too. I haven't hit it yet, but it's coming. Do you have a swan princess? She was a level 8 & worked for me.
Is anybody else having crash problems with their FFS today?

I hatched and raised Anubis to level 15 hoping that it would be a better opponent against Treasure animals than my level 15 Santa Claws. The Egypt element is definitely Strong against Treasure but I haven't had a lot of luck against the Level 15 Treasure Toucan on round 26 so far I have lost to it 7 times. Hopefully it will match up better against the Gem animals.

I'm on iOS - Go to App Store and go into 'updates' tab. This can be set to auto update thru settings.

Also - round 18 - Patriotter - used Christmas and it was neutral. I got a critical, so luckily beat that round. Chart shows it as strong - maybe they changed strengths again! Hopefully they made something strong to Egypt!


**** Nevermind - I think I used it against Thunder Mammoth (round 19) cuz I'm on round 20 now. Oopsy! This is why I leave the posting to the professionals! :p

How can a creature that beautiful can beat the hell out of my most elite fighters? 4 losses now, 2 to pegasus and 2 to wombattery. Dont know what to use to beat her next time

Hi,

The Pegasus and Wombattery would not be the optimal choices here, as they're hybrids that each only have a single element that's strong to gem-water.

If you have a dark-electric animal, you have one of the optimal elemental combinations to battle gem-water (i.e. the Peryton and the Cthulhu). Also, it really helps to have your animals at as high a level as possible, preferrably at epic level. For this very reason I had previously raised my (super rare) Pluma to epic level. This time around I also have a Golden Retriever and the Anubis (both are 'strong' against gem); I didn't try the Anubis on this round, but the Retriever lost twice to the Peryton, so indeed I called in the help of the Pluma, and that one instantly sent the Peryton back home to cry in a corner. :P

I'm still not sure what the best choice is in this situation: the ultra rare Golden Retriever (with a single element that's strong to gem and neutral to water), or the Pluma which is 'only' a super rare, but which is a hybrid that has both its elements being strong to the opponent's elements (i.e. electric is strong to water and dark is strong to gem). For this reason I like to alternate a bit between these opponents.

Now, for those who are doubting the "value" of raising such animals to epic level: of course as we all know basically ANY animal can score a critical hit against something like the Peryton, even a level 1 Pyro Pony could, but I can definitely state that ever since having raised my A-team fighter squad of well matched epic super rares (and now even two ultra rares) the tournaments have gone a LOT easier for me. Previously, despite battling every waking hour of the day, I could easily be stuck on a low level gem animal for an entire day and would often either not be able to win a tournament, or I would need to use an ultimate attack on some round. Nowadays my most extreme "getting stuck" moments tend to be limited to maybe 5 attempts or so, and that happens only very rarely. Tournaments like these are normally won by me with several days to spare, and without having to spend a single gem now. Living in Europe, the flash tournaments at times still require me to "double-battle" on some rounds, as there's precious little slack time for incurring the full 1 hour wait time for the losses. But, whereas flash tournaments previously were completely undoable for me, I haven't lost a single one since raising the A-team.

For those who are interested, my results can be found in post nr. 3 on page 1. Though I'm not done yet (I've just started out on round 28 where I'm having a go at one of my good 'ole fighter pit mates, the Razorback), I think the results of the first 27 rounds tell the same tale as written above. IMO it pays off BIG time to work on a fighter squad of some 5-6 epic super rares that have carefully chosen elemental combinations such that they can battle any opponent. When I first raised my A-team, that's what I did and it directly worked very well. Gradually after that I could "afford" to raise some more specialised super rares too and add them to the team for specific opponents. Then, a few weeks ago I *finally* managed to breed an ultra rare (i.e. the Retriever) and recently I got the ultra rare Swan Prince. I also now have an epic Anubis, Swan Princess and Snapdragon, so now my whole fighter selector strategy has significantly changed around to a more exotic mix of animals. Still, I bet ya that my "core" A-team as I had it some 2 months ago would still do very well. :P

I hope these thoughts and suggestions help: good luck to all in bringing home the Fluffy Bunny, errr... Dusk Bunny! :P

My highest level Egypt is at a level 7. May try that next and then go back to fire elements. I can only level these guys up so quickly, and save for expansion ect ect.

All done!
This was a pretty smooth tournament with 19 losses vs. 30 wins, and without having spent gems. The tournament was won with some 3 days to spare. :)
The new animals held up pretty well too; the Swan Prince and Anubis did what was required of them, and so did several of my trusty old fighters. I was a bit sad to have only given one chance to the Gold Lion (my previous #1 fighter) and that it lost that round. In next tournaments I'll see if I can deploy that one a bit more too! Well, let's just say that he got to enjoy some R&R after having well earned its ******s in earlier tournaments. :P

I strongly doubt being able to hatch it in time for the 5 gem reward: it seems likely that after tonight's update my nest and den will be occupied 24/7 by whatever breeding combo we will need to do for the expected dog trio. With an incubation time of 23 hours and no vacancies (without ejecting other animals) in dark or earth habitats, it looks like the bunny will spend some time along with the Dusky, Bulldog, Turtle Dove and the Spark Shark, all of which are also still in storage...

Yeah, I have a Crystal Unicorn. I need to level her up quite a bit (she's got quite an appetite so that'll take a while) before I start using her in tournaments. And even then, I'm going to focus on fighting using mainly breedable non-limited super rares, with Ancient Sloth thrown in.

The tournament started unbelievably well as I won the first 16 rounds without a loss. I should have known that was a bad omen. I lost 7 times on round 26 and I have now lost 15 times on round 28 and still stuck on that round. Previously, my worst round in any tournament was 12 losses. Even if the odds of winning the round was only 15%, There is less than a 10% chance of losing 15 straight times.

I usually finish a 30 round tournament before the Friday update but it won't happen this time. I am hoping the update will change my luck. At least there is plenty of time and I have a lot of confidence tat my troops will get through this eventually. Congratulations to all those who have won already and Good Luck to everyone still battling.

OMG - so excited. Thought I would be stuck at round 22 Bastet for awhile. Just beat him with my level 10 Swan Prince after only 1 loss from my epic ancient sloth:) You think its a bad thing that I cheered for my Prince when I saw the critical hit?!?
No, I talk to my animals xD


Little confused... On round 28 ruby razorback one of the sting elements is gem. I used crystal unicorn and it was all neutral hits..
It's a mistake in the chart. Gem is neutral against Gem/Fire.

Argh, nine losses on round 23 against Pearl Peryton. Any advice? Have been using Martipony-15, Swan Princess-15, and Zapra-9

Hi,
See my earlier post on page 11 about this... In brief: see if you have a high level super rare dark-electric hybrid. I use the Pluma as a Cthulhu and Peryton ****er. The Treent and Treasure animals (if you have any of those) are also good matches against gem-water.

Yep, this is another one that had a conflicting report in the Battlegrounds thread. Thanks for bringing it to my attention, I've fixed the first post. :)

We definitely need more bunnies in this game. And a snake, if you ask my hubby. :)

Been stuck on the Pygmy Giraffe for the last 5 hours. If it wasn't so late in the day I would go to work and see if yesterday's luck repeated itself!

Ooooooo, a snake is a great idea! Other kinds of reptiles would be neat too. :)

I'm currently stuck on Treasure Toucan. I suspect it will be tomorrow before I get past it. :rolleyes:

Egypt bastet

I started with my best fighters starting with rarity , lvl,.
My trusted ancient sloth lost with both nature and earth hits
Tried my only ultra , lvl 13 swan Prince and then my epic swan princess
Both failed
Then on a hunch used my only pure different element the cosmic Caturn
It was only lvl 4 but gave me neutral , critical neutral hits and a win.
So it's just pure luck as far as Egypt is concerned .

I have won against the scaring bastet with my Level 15 Thorilla named T-Kong ;) at my first try! The first was the critical hit and it just need one more weak hit to bung him out of the ring!

Congrats to all who have already did it and good luck to everyone else.

@Chippychan: Thank you very much for vour great support and all the effort you put in every time to help. Without your charts I would never ever had a Chance to win just a single tournament. :D

The last two tournaments I was not lucky but hopefully I will make it this time. The Dusk Bunny is relly cute and I hope I will be able to get it.

A very strange thing happened.
I have been having some trouble with my internet connection.. It has been going and coming at will. Normally when this happens my game rolls back a few steps either when I am planting or collecting coins.. But never in the timer of the tournament.
A few minutes back my lightening leopard lost to the dreaded pearl peryton.and then my game froze as there was no internet connection. When it came back on again a few minutes later, my battle had rolled back and I had moved one step ahead. The pearl peryton was gone and dead. And I was in my next round...YIPPPEEEE!!!

This was truly the most frustrating of the 18 30-round tournaments that Fantasy Forest Story has held. I started off with 16 straight wins, and I won a record (for me) 22 battles on the first round. I also ended up with my worst record, 40 losses, and the worst round I have had in any tournament, 22 losses to the Ruby Razorback on round 28. I had as many losses on that one round as I had in 3 of the previous 30 round tournaments. Together with the 7 losses to the Treasure Toucan on round 26, I had a 3 round run of 21 losses between rounds 26-28. See post #4 for details.

Anubis was my big disappointment. Since Egypt is strong against both Gem and Treasure, I was counting on it to help me with the ultra-rares. It performed poorly. It lost 7 times on round 26 before finally winning and accounting for 10 of the losses on round 28 without a win. There weren?t many opportunities to use the Swan Prince but it did win the two battles that it did participate in.

The 22 losses in a single round with level 15 animals with good element matches is certainly an anomaly. If I had a 25% chance of winning each battle, the odds of this happening are less than 2/10 of a percent. Following is a list of some other win percentages and the odds of this occuring:
20% chance of winning: .7%
15% chance of winning: 2.8&
10% chance of winning: 9.8%

So if my chance of winning the round with the animals I used were only 10%, this would be a rare but not a terribly unusual event (9.8%) if I had a 15% chance, than it would indeed be a rare event (less than 3%). I would hate to think that I only had a 10% chance of winning with the animals that I used and my previous experience battling a level 20 Ruby Razorback, I won on the first try. I battled a level 18 Ruby Razorback a number of times and usually did quite well. This is too little data to know for sure, but I would like to believe that I actually had about a 20% chance of beating a level 29 Ruby Razorback and this was just a very unlucky event. However, I am leaning more to having a 15% chance,

I am a bit disappointed in the new template of opponents used for this tournament and I hope S8 revises it. I would prefer more balance throughout the tournament (like the battlegrounds) rather than reducing the level of opponents in the early rounds and raising the levels in the later rounds. I also hate the idea of a 10,000 coin reward in rounds 18 and 28. If, S8 thinks this is an extra bonus, I doubt many players would agree. Imagine my surprise after paying 2,500 coins for each of my 23 battles on round 28 (57,500 coins total) and I get my big reward of 10,000 coins. A gem or two along the way makes more sense to me.

I am not sure I will block my nest for the 23 hours it will take to hatch the egg and get the gem reward. I have another Armordillo army to build. Congratulations to everyone who has won and Good Luck to everyone still battling.

Doesn't look like I'm going to finish. Nine losses to the Toucan so far. Might as well feed my unicorn and put it into the evolution flower for it's epic evolution. (Looks like it won't be needed for the coming opponents anyway.) That will deplete my food supplies, but hopefully there won't be any Storybook adventure during the trio so there's time to collect more food.

I'm not having a great time in this tournament either. I haven't experienced anything like ninasidstorm8 did with Ruby Razorback (that's just awful to the nth degree), but these tournaments are starting to depress me.

I don't mind working for an animal. I worked my butt off to be able to raise all that food required for the Storybook Adventure. And as tedious as that was, I had more fun doing it than I do slogging through tournaments. I don't care if a matchup is difficult, if using strategy actually pays off. It's just. ugh. /rant over

Exactly! There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to how to beat some of these opponents. Some get through the round with the same animal with one try and others get stuck on it for days. I hope you get through to the end!

Congrats to all who've already finished! I'm calling it a day on this tourney since I don't mind not having the bunny. There's too many events in S8 games going on at the same time and it's the weekend so not wanting to spend more time on this.

Thanks, I hope so too. Ancient Sloth took down Terradactyl on the first attempt, so next up is Treasure Toucan.

I've dabbled in a few of the other Story games, and I can't play two of them at once. I end up feeling overwhelmed. So it's just FFS and right now Jewel Mania to earn some gems.

Sorry for not posting my results here, but I haven't been keeping proper notes on this tournament. I just managed to get the Dusk Bunny.


Managed to get through the difficult ones (with losses) as follows:

- Pearl Peryton < Skyger lvl 15 - dark. (Zapra, Hippogryph, Onyx Ox lost).
- Anubis < Unicornucopia Lvl 15 - nature (Griffin lost)
- Toucan < Unicornucopia Lvl 15 - nature
- Ruby Razorback < Swan Princess lvl 15. (multiple times).

My Unicornucopia was an absolute champion for me in this tourney. :)

Grrrrr....

Stuck on round 28 Ruby Razorback for almost 2 days. Went thru allllll my water elements several time. Used Treent lvl 10 lost. Raised him to lvl 11 still lost. Used my Egypt animals. Raised one of the Super Rares Egypts 4 lvls and still lost. Even tried a couple of neutral elements in case they may have given me a critical. Still lost. :( :( :( Just about to give up on this and thought I would try Swan Princess lvl 15 one more time and got a Strong Strong...............Critical Hip Hip Hooray.

Moral of this story Persistence pays off.

Still don't know if I will win the bunny who is very cute. But I will keep trying. Have a little over 24 hours left. I may use diamonds on this one. Hoping I can still win at least one of the 2 rounds left.

Good luck to those still trying to win and Congrads to those who have one/won (both work).


Chippychan I like the new format. You have words and visual for those of us who relate to one better than the other. Thanks for all the hard work. :)

Both of my accounts have been stuck on one animal for over a day, one is stuck on Pearl Peryton. The other is stuck on Dusk Bunny. The game won't let me pass either one even though I've tried every animal and multiples. I don't have the gems to spend so I guess that's it.

I hope you make it soon! I've been battling every time I plant food and just finally beat it with the Sloth. Took about 15-18 tries. Good luck!

Thanks guys. My ancient sloth seems to be getting weaker every tournament but I'll keep trying. 15-18 tries on a single round is ridiculous!

I just beat Treasure Toucan with my itty bitty level 7 Ra. So you never know what'll end up working! Best of luck!

Lmao: my record is 26-39

Yay for the babies! :D

I finally finished, going 1-1 today against the Dusk Bunny. My Hedgehog finally took it down.

Overall record was 30-41.

Good luck to everyone still working on this one!!

I could kiss my Swan Princess! Took out Melodeer first try, and took out Ruby Razorback first try. I have a decent chance at finishing this one now xD

I'm not liking the changes they've made to the 30 round tournament: extending the lower level opponents and then stabbing us with a difficulty spike, having multiple level 20 opponents, the three ultra rares being levels 18, 19, and 20 respectively. Ugh.

I'm on the last round. I'm afraid of saying anything else for fear of jinxing myself.

Here's a message for all who are having severe difficulties with this tournament and/or with others.
I hope you don't mind me giving some advice that was not asked for, but in the last 20 or so posts in this thread I recognise the kind of situation that I too used to be in, before starting to investigate the strategies for winning tournaments some more. Ever since I did, ALL of the tournaments, and that includes the flash tournaments (while being at a disadvantage by living in Europe) were won by me.
As several of you may not have been around here (or otherwise perhaps didn't notice it) when I posted about such matters, I decided to point you all to an old thread of mine:
http://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?82396-New-animal-Turtle-Dove&p=1129183&viewfull=1#post1129183

In it, I summarise the key ingredients to success in tournaments.
Using the "Making sense of the battleground" thread, between the time after the Dread Panda tournament, and the above referred post, I set out to invest effort and food in building an "A-team" of 5 fighters that could cover pretty much ALL of the opponents well. These five fighters are all super rares, but they can pretty easily be obtained, or substituted by other animals of the same elemental make up. Do note that the referred post only summarises my efforts to build such a team; throughout various preceding posts it was possible to follow it more step by step, but it's not necessary to do so. If you just take my word on the recommendations I made, it's not necessary to do the research yourself. :P

Now, to those who are struggling in tournaments I can recommend you all to read and heed that post, and to start working ASAP on raising some 5 similarly selected "core fighters" to epic level (or as high a level as you can). Doing so for me has made SUCH a difference! Before doing this, the ultra rares would easily see me tied up on a single round for an entire day or so (much like what several of you are experiencing right now). Not so anymore. Even though for this tournament you will see a far more exotic list of opponents that I used, in previous tournaments I stuck by my A-team core fighters as explained in the referred post and had similar scores. Nowadays even the level 20 ultra rares are normally beaten by me in max. 5 attempts or so (there are of course sometimes exceptions, but very rarely so), but often quite a bit sooner.

I hope the above helps.

Now, the reason for quoting Sandy's text is that I know her to be a neighbour of mine of whom I think she shouldn't have to be in this situation (pardon me for making your forest an example): I took a quick look and almost all of my A-team fighters are there. I didn't see a Gold Lion, but there is a Hareon, which is an excellent substitute. And.... there are a lot of excellent fighters there that aren't even in the core group of my initial fighter list, but which I do nowadays use as more "special opponents", like e.g. the Patriotter, the Magmacore (this too is a great core member to consider), etc. Then, I also spotted the Swan Prince there and a Unicorn and Sapphire Cthulhu.
Soooo what, IMO, is then the reason that this tournament proved troublesome, even with such an opposing force?
Easy answer: the level of the animals.
I can't exactly see what level they are at, but I do see that most of them are not at epic level. I suspect the level of these animals to be too low to score quick victories on several rounds. I think that scoring quick victories only happens structurally for animals of level 12+. IMO it's really important to have the core fighters at as high a level as possible.
I saw some people mention fighting with a level 7 Anubis. Well, that may work, but most often a level 7 animal is not a kick-*ss fighter. In order for it to become that, IMO you'd have to get it at least to level 12, but I also very strongly suspect (and my tournament results seem to corroborate this) that it really, really pays off to push them further, and if at all possible all the way to epic level. Yes, doing so WILL take a lot of food and that part is tedious, but it pays off handsomely once you start to easily reel in the new tournament animals. :P

Now, the above referred post by now is somewhat dated and some elements (like Egypt) didn't exist back then, but the general idea is clear and sound still. I can really recommend you all to do the same.

Either way: I hope this helps to finding an answer as to exactly "why" you may be having these problems. Of course none of the above applies if you have been using epic level super or ultra rares that have strong elemental matches against the various troublesome opponents. Sometimes tournament rounds can have odd outcomes (like level 15 ultra rares losing from level 1 commons), but on average your tournament results should improve dramatically if you apply the above mentioned strategy.

Good luck all, and I hope this post helps at least those who aren't aware of this strategy and who still have much room for improvement simply by raising a better team of fighters. For those who already have an A team like that and are still having severe trouble I don't have any specific advice. I can't logically explain such outcomes in that situation...

Cheers,
Olafo

Finally finished. I don't think I've ever won an animal during a battle tournament, as I usually don't have the time it takes to invest to win. I won't be able to hatch it, but I can just keep it in storage, right? I just won't receive the gem reward?

Congrats on finishing! Yes, that's right, it'll stay in your storage until you decide to hatch it. It has to be finished hatching by 2:30am EST to receive the gem reward. So, unless you speed it, no gems.

Somehow I find myself at the last round. Got past Ruby on the second try early this morning and Danebow went down on the first try. Now two losses to the bunny. Don't have the gems to ultimate so only one shot left (need to speed up for that).

Edit: Done! Had to speed up twice (using 6 gems) but Ancient Sloth triumphed on the fourth attempt and I got the bunny. This was exhausting!

@ogreve I don't mind at all being used as an example in your post. :) I completely agree with you about raising a core group of fighters and I'm trying to do that as soon as possible but I don't yet have the coin income to only make the expensive food and with the Storybook Adventures we need a big food reserve. I finally got my unicorn to epic and Cthulhu is evolving to level 10 now but I'm once again out of food. :p Now I really need to stock up apples for the next Storybook. I'll get there with my fighters, but not quite yet. Working on it. :)

Unfortunately I could not make it in the end again. :(

I was not able to beat the Ruby Razorback.

This is the third tournament in a row that I lost. But I will keep on trying every time.

Congrats to everyone who made it in the end. And a warmly "Cheer up" to everyone who is in the same Situation than me. One day we will also make it. :)

@Ogreve: Thank you for your advices, but for me it is the same like Sandybellee. I also keep trying to raise a group of A-fighters since I saw your thread here a few weeks ago but I am always short on food due to it is so expensive to feed them all. And I am far far away from what I would like to be. My only Ultra Rare is the Swan Prince named Azazel and it took me lots and lots of gems to get him. He is at level 11 now. I won a steamtrunk which is "only" super-rare by spinning the wheel and I am very happy to have it, but it is still in the storage due to I was trying to get the Mammoth (failed) and still try to get the Lunar Moth. I am not good in that "breeding by command" I think. And I was a bit too optimistic earlier and I bought the habitat for the Treasure Toucan and the Unicorn already and they both keep growing lonely until now :(.

Well anyway...I will stop moaning now and shake it all off and will wait and see what the 18er is I now have at my tree. Hopefully it is something I do not already have! :)

I have been reading this thread and I wanted to comment on the A list team of fighters. This is a great and idea and it works. I have not lost a single tournament since day one and working up this A list of fighters was the key. and key #2 is getting them to level 15. that seems to make a world of difference. Here is my list of A fighters.

Ancient Sloth - he is by far my best fighter. He wins all the time and he is my go to guy for sure. His nature attacks gets those gem animals every time.
Gold Lion
Ocean Owl
Cactus Kitsrine
Jade Kirin
Nightmare this is the guy that takes down any gem animal. He is fantastic!!!
Christmas Poodle. He is my only rare that is level 15 but he wins alot when we need that Christmas element!
Magmacore

I have some others too but these guys are my core and the get the job done.

I'll get there with my fighters, but not quite yet. Working on it. :)

Firstly: congrats on having made it after all!! It would have been a major pity to "strand with the harbour in sight" (as we say over here). Good to see you made it after all!

Yes, the feeding part can be terrible. One further observation from your forest is that your farms are set apart and that only 4 of them are of the 'grand' kind. I can recommend you to bring them all together either in a single line of 6 farms, or in two adjacent rows of 3 farms. Personally I used to have them in the former mentioned configuration when leveling up my fighters, but now I have them in the latter mentioned configuration, occupying the 6 plots right in front of the mine. I can strongly recommend putting your farms in a similar configuration. Then, see to it that you upgrade the two small farms to grand level. You'll find that once they're all of the same size and in a more functional lay-out, the growing-harvesting process becomes more efficient. It also tends to result in fewer accidental gem spending when pacing through the farms.
I vividly recall the tedious hours I spent doing back-to-back Power Pear planting (while doing other stuff too); it truly had me being a "PowerPearSlave - slave to the power of pears..." (pun intended - Google the word Powerslave to see where it comes from ;) ).
What I also found to be massively demotivating was to grow and harvest 24,000 food or so with Power Pears alone and then to see them being gulped down in an instant, only to result in a single level up of one animal, after which one had to start again. I found it to be more motivating to pick off a single animal first, grow the food until enough was obtained for a single feeding, then feed the animal, and do the same all over again. Doing it that way, it's less demotivating and you "more visually see" your animal gradually becomes stronger, step by step.
In your particular forest, as you already have a Unicorn at epic level, I'd probably hold back on raising the Cthulhu to epic level a bit (though that one DOES seriously add to your earnings) and perhaps focus on getting your Treent, Thorilla (or Terradactyl), Ancient Sloth and/or Swan Prince to epic levels first (it's a good idea to write the elemental kinds they're strong against down, and then to focus on the animals that fill most gaps first). I don't recall from memory if you already have an epic Anubis or not, but that's another good recommendation. These animals should complement your Unicorn very well for getting a class A fighter squad. Particularly focus on the "gem and treasure ****ers" as those are always the toughest opponents to get past. The Ancient Sloth is cheap to raise, but the Treent and Swan Prince are not. Anubis is o.k., at the cost of a normal Super Rare.

Hang in there, try to optimise your food-growing process and start working right away on raising a good team. It will take a week or two of extensive effort but then you'll probably not have many issues on upcoming tournaments anymore, which is a great relief! :)

As for the food reserve: I don't think a new storytale will start before the Service trio is over and done with, so though I'm not sure, I *think* that for some 3 more weeks or so you can still use a good bit of that food. I am currently also working on having a food buffer (I'm at 109,565 now) and when it's over 150K I'll use the 'excess' food for leveling up prestige animals like the Egypt ones, simply because I like their epic forms. Growing a small army of class A fighters would take precedence for me over futile matters like 'prestige animals' and I have a solid fighter line up now and can afford to grow a lot of Charm Cherries, so my situation is quite different from yours. I guess in your situation it might not be a bad idea to keep some 50K-75K food in reserve and use the excess food of the coming two weeks for raising your fighter squad. When food comes in slowly, focus on as few animals as possible, and raise each one in turn a single complete level and then move on to the next animal. That way, you're leveling all of them up quickly to decent levels like 12 or so in relatively short time, and then after that at a slower pace they'll gradually all turn into level 13, then 14 and then 15.

In some two weeks time from now it may be a good idea to start working on a bigger food reserve just in case a new storytale is around the corner.
I'm currently taking the same kind of risks with mining: I *really* need/want to expand as quickly as possible, so at this moment I'm directly mining each bomb away as it comes in. In some two weeks from now I want to build up a 10 bomb buffer. Before that time I hope to make at least one more expansion... :P

OK, just some thoughts!
Congrats to those who managed to reel in the bunny after all, and good luck to those who are going to work on leveling up their fighters!

@ogreve Thanks for taking the time to do the analysis and write your suggestions! My Ancient Sloth has been epic for a long time, though. :) There's just no way to do well in tournaments without an epic Ancient Sloth, I think.

At the moment I'm definitely working on getting the Treent up there. It's only level 11 now. I also want to get Patriotter to epic level as soon as possible - it's already been a great fighter at levels 12 and 13 for me. Will definitely get Swan Prince, Terradactyl, Storm Sphinx, Anubis, Strawbeary, Peony Pony, Lullabison and Cthulhu to epic too. I don't want to feed Hareon or Fennec Shox to epic at ultra rare cost, so I'm hoping to breed a gold lion soon. The most crucial ones at the moment are Treent, Anubis, Patriotter and Storm Sphinx (it's level 13 already so will be quicker to raise than my level 11 Terradactyl).

My core epic fighters at the moment are Aperil Fool, Glacial Griffin, Ancient Sloth, Crystal Unicorn, Swan Princess and Twilight Troll. Definitely need the lightning element as soon as possible although Lightning Leopard has been a surprisingly good fighter for me.
