Re: MASTERY MINI FORUM.

Week 310 boosterama

Thanks to @Rackman70's setup, this takes my L10 profile to the 4M club. 👿

This gets me 27m+ every time.

Put imppears at c1, r2 and r4 and plantfood whatever one has zomboss in their row.

Adjusting HierXu's strategy to my plant levels has enabled me to join the 28M club!

I find if I put my Torchwood+Pea-vine setup on the far right of the lawn, the Zombot always (so far) crouches back instead of jumping (immediately giving me the points for the first health bar).  This ensures that I'll get to the 32nd health bar at the end of the match.  Otherwise it's touch and go (more go 😞). I also need 4 columns of Pea-vine to do enough damage to the Zombot to get to that 32 health bar max.

All that said, getting to 28M was an RNG struggle.

I plant all the TW and PeV I need during pre-play.  After that, I'm occasionally spamming Imp Pear to fish for Mastery boosts, but mostly just using plant food on an Imp Pear just as the Zombot is jumping.  There's not a lot of extra points from normal zombies in this tourney, but there's a few extra points to be had.  When the Zombot jumps, any Zombies under it when it lands will be killed WITHOUT awarding you any points. If you use plant food on Imp Pear just as the jump starts, you can transform those zombies yourself and get points from them. It's enough that I'm consistently about 500K more using this strategy than with the standard TW+PeV+SBR strategies. Getting to 28M I think relies on some luck with where the Medusas (and their pushed Bust Head statues) come out. They don't get transformed by Imp Pear so if they come out under where the Zombot lands, you lose the points you would otherwise get from them.

Great score @Rackman70 .  I have only seem 28M achieved by full M200 players, yours is the first one breaks the barrier with just high mastery.  Congrats.

On my last go to get 500 crowns i managed to join the 28 million club.

Now, can anyone explain why I'm still 10x seeds short of unlocking iceshroom?.

Congrats @MAGICDAVESHROOM for breaking the 28M.  My high mastery has only reach 27.8M and there is no sign of the 28M yet after 3 rounds of 7 streaks,.hopefully I can squeeze a few more games before this tournament ends in and see if I get lucky.

I think your 60 seeds reward at the 150 crowns marker has been skipped and thus the extra 50 seeds reward you got from the quest still leaves you 10 short to unlock the plant.

Week 312 Dragon Bruit tournament

Both of my L8 and L10 profiles are joining the 6M Club.  This strategy is EAsy, just setup and then drop Imp Pear on to the power tiles repeatedly....

The L10 profile setup is similar to L8 but with only one column of Pea Vine instead 2 otherwise the zombies will be killed too quickly and resulting a drop in ZDL.

By shifting the Pea Vine a column to the left, my high mastery has also made it to the 6M club.  👿

Interestingly, using the same load out to try a practice for the next tournament, I have also got a similar score.

Week 313 tournament

I think 7M is possible for my M1 profile with this strategy....

Week 313 boosterama

I did not have time to play any more games pre-boosterama so there were no 7M scores.   Luckily with the boosted power, my L8 profile joins the 7M club.

Week 314 boosterama

My L8 profile joins the 7M club.

I didn't have a chance to post my non-Boosterama score previously, but I did manage to join the 7M club :-)

It was a little bit surprising to me that basically the same layout is what's working for me in the Boosterama. Normally I have to change it up a bit more than this.

The 8M club for the Boosterama is now open.  Come join me! :-).  

Great score and congrats on breaking 8M.  So far, I have only seen 3 scores breaking this barrier including yours.

I have been traveling earlier in the week and did not find time do many pre-boosteranma games, I did have a few streaks but none of my mastery profiles managed to break 7M.  I am back in UK now and will have more time this weekend to catch up, hopefully I can join you in this exclusive club.  

Thanks to @Rackman70 's setup, my high mastery profile joins the 8M club.

I replaced Sun-shroom with Solar Sage to take care of the throw Imps and there had been a few 8M+ scores with the highest being 8.6M so far

Congrats on a great score!  That's better than every score I've seen (at least from those I trust not to Mod to increase their scores).  Maybe you were the one that I lost to (my one loss this season, Grrrr) 😉

I'm not sure that I'm going to go for a top score next week in the Zomboss tourney. It's a good week to grind with just a 2 minute match.  I've got an AFK strategy that I tested out and am reliably getting 25M with.  I posted a video of it on the Reddit sub. 

Thank you for sharing your AFK strategy.  I think the 8M is exclusive for mastery plants. 

I played 50 games on my L10 profile and the best I managed was 7.9M.  ☹️

Zomboss tournament- this usually gets me around the 25m mark, sometimes over.

So close to 26m....

Finally got into the 26m club.

Nice Score @MAGICDAVESHROOM .  Hopping to join you later once I have completed 1000 crowns on my L8 profile.

@eieio_31310 

I have EAten all the jaffa cakes in the 26m club so have gone to the 27m club.

There has been no 27M for me, the highest I managed so far is 26.6M.  (will upload the image once I found it)  Luckily, I managed to get 1000 crowns.  👿

Week 316 practice

8M+ from my L8 profile

@eieio_31310 

This gets me 6-6.5m with Mastery plants, but should work almost as well as your maxies.

Just keep on adding blastberry vines and dusk lobbers and save your plantfood for concealmint.

I managed to join the 7m club.

Modifying HierXu's Laser Bean strategy I've managed to join the 8M club.  My M108 Laser Bean can't match his M200 10M score, but I think this is about the best I can muster.  About 40% of my games are over 8M with this strategy, with 8.8 being my top score.  The second screen shot is not from my 8.8M run.  I've just included it to show my final lawn layout.
