EA new mega bot form of cheating
I haven’t posted in a while as EA has worked hard to mask the bots that they allocate to set games to ensure we don’t maintain streaks without coughing up gems this time they have gone way too hard ...

Apologies and thanks for pointing out the image thing, the archaic way of uploading images to this site these days doesn’t allow for preview as it used to. Have sorted
i use the word ‘bot’ to mean an EA manufactured account. We all know this happens and it is designed to require us to pay gems to extend a streak. Has been happening since Battlez was launched. In general EA has improved their masking of this manipulation by manufacturing accounts with maxed out plants and associated scores that can’t be beaten.
my point is that loading up manipulated accounts with unrealistically maxed out Mastery levels like these, they are demonstrating a level of arrogance and stupidity that goes beyond that of the past.
and if they aren’t EA manipulated accounts, they should be doing something about eradicating them from the game as email addresses are now linked, very easy to clean out manipulated accounts
I was thinking that too: That I'm being pitted against super profiles every 4-5 games. That was what I felt when I was climbing up the league. But after experiencing a glitch after installing the update (see my post here), I am back to the soil league.
My current streak is around 60 (with zero loss) and I have not encountered a "mega bot" so far. I have faced jade-league-level profiles but I beat them easily (my max is 3.5M in week 35 battlez but I average at around 2.8M). Maybe because I'm in soil league (???)... I don't know. But I am still waiting for a "mega bot" to give my first loss in soil league.
With regards to those M200 class plants, I have a M145 shadow peashooter. And because of the tons of money I got from the glitch I encountered, I was easily able to do that upgrade within 24 hours of updating PVZ 2. I could have easily gotten the M200 if I wasn't busy during the shadow peashooter tourney. What I am saying is that the seed packets would have been accumulating and stored within our profiles and hidden from our view way before the updated was live.
This is just my point of view but I do agree with you at some point. Please don't get mad at me... I am not defending EA or anything... Just saying...
How long have you been in soil league? I would think a player with M100+ plants would be out of the soil league in 1 week right?
"Million Instructions per Second"
Actually it takes almost no computing power to flip an attribute from x to Mxxx, I was just saying that it didn't need to be done by an actual person pushing a button. In the case of the manufactured accounts, I don't think the accounts get manipulated, I think that when they're generated now, some of the EA accounts now have M200 plants.
So you actually agree with me
given that any real player couldn’t achieve that, it is appalling on the part of EA to set that stuff up. It is only to stack their coffers
I think I've been in the soil league for two days already... My profile is only around 8 weeks old. I had a 7 year old profile that I lost due to a buggy phone. I was not using cloud sync before since I haven't played for years and I had no idea they could be sync'ed. So, in short, I'm fairly new to all of this.
With the coming sling peashooter event, I don't mind just staying in the lower league again. Hahaha! Easy-peasy opponents! The evil in me...
I doubt if EA would bump me back to Jade league. And besides, the monster profiles I encounter there are just soul-crushing at times.
