After a few fails, I got the Neo Valiant with my Diamond (15) - was probably the third time this pair faced each other! I tried Achilles (12), Smitten (14), Crusader (10), and Dark Omen (14).
I got Dahlia first try with Seeker (14).

I guess now they are playing games with the timer on the tournaments. Said 2 day?s last night which would have meant 24 hours left at the least from last night. Today the tournament is gone.
Returned last night from a trip to see family. Played when I had time and wins/losses were hastily jotted on stickies. It's weird ... I could've sworn there were a couple of rounds that I forgot to record. (Losses in parentheses)

Having seen the regular postings of your tournament results, and for at least the ones I have seen, you've never experienced single "rigged" round losses of 10 to 20+ like many of us have nor have you experienced a completed tournament with double digit losses. For example, in this tournament, you recorded only 6 losses. Either you are very blessed or DS has excluded you from the player profiles to be subjected to rigged / difficult tournament conditions! I do the similar colour matching and believe I choose suitable dragons for each opponent in the arena, and am s****ed enough to have always won the tournaments I choose to be involved in, but of late, on top of the "rigged" dragons, I'm also experiencing a lot more losses these days in the later rounds of each tournament.
For this one, I originally decided not to participate in it and only battled when this past week's Bingo tasks required it (another event I don't normally partake in these days, but I needed to stock up on some timer boosts). Two nights ago, at the end of the latest Bingo round, I found myself completing round 20 of this tournament just from completing Bingo tasks (with something like 8 losses as Bingo battling tasks are specific, and I don't get the latitude to choose the ideal dragon from my collection to battle with). So, with 24 hours left in the tournament, I decided to try for the win as there were "only" 10 rounds remaining.
Well, I did make it with only an hour to spare but it was certainly not easy nor pleasant. DS has certainly taken the fun out of tournaments and Tales by increasing their difficulties to the point that it feels more like working in a job now rather than to play to relax! In the final 10 rounds, I ended up completing them after 13 losses (including 5 losses to Neo Glasswing and surprisingly 4 losses to Forest)! My less rosy results are as follows:
21. Medusa 14 < Gilded Knight M
22. Congo 15 < Infinity 15 bbM [Lost Passion 15, Achilles 15]
23. Glimmer 20 < Infinity 15 Bbb [Lost Valiant 15]
24. Jingle Bell 18 < Battlesteed 15 B
25. Forest 18 < Valiant 15 bmM [Lost Playful 14, Rainbow Sentinel 15, Battlesteed 15]
26. Neo Glasswing 19 < Passion 15 bB
[Lost Infinity 15 mbb, Passion 15 bbm, Achilles 15 bmb, Diamond 15 bmb, Valiant 15 bbb]
27. Shamrock 19 < Rainbow Sentinel 15 B [Lost Huntress 15]
28. Marble 20 < Rainbow Sentinel 15 bmB
29. Neo Valiant 20 < Valiant 15 M [Lost Infinity 15]
30. Dahlia 20 < Gilded Knight Mb

Trust me KevinW07, I've had tournaments where I got stuck on a dragon 10+ times. I even lost to Dynasty in a tourney in late 2015 a record 38 times. That was before I raised all my primary dragons (Fire, Air, Forest) to level 15. Since then I haven't lost to a dragon more than 4 times.
Now, I get to tend to the line-up in the Healing Spa and just leaving Dahlia in storage until the I can craft the ridiculously large number of Marble Keys (at the snail's pace rate of 1 key/day) required to clear some land to add habitats into!
Yep, that's a great tip which I picked up from you a few tournaments ago and on my to do list in the next Leaderboard. I've got a fair few Champion and Diamond types at level 15, so now I will move to complement them with the primary colours. Do you have your Water / Hammerhead, Peacock, Light, and Night Elf at level 15 as well?
I have Water at 15, Hammerhead at 8, Peacock at 4, Light at 10 and Night Elf at 8. The only one in that group I plan on getting to 15 one day is Light but, outside of Water, all are so gosh darn greedy with food. I only have 2 diamond type dragons at level 15 (Diamond and Infinity) but I rarely use those as they've been a disappointment at times. Surprisingly, I only have one champ type at level 15, Neo Glasswing. In total I have only 6 champ types level 10 or over - The aforementioned Neo Glasswing, Wardrum (12), Strength (12), Honor (10), Warrior Princess (10) and Dueler (10). Those champ dragons are pretty good in battle but I stay away from using champs in tourneys unless it's necessary.
You're doing right by getting the primary single element dragons up to 15 during the Leaderboard. Trust me, those dragons will work wonders in future tournaments. Good luck!
