"WHAT THE [Insert suitable word] !!!"

I have moments like this too, but I also lose to really strong players so it all plays out evenly.

Today I lost to someone who scored above 4 million with lvl 7 solar tomato, lvl 10 cold snapdragon, lvl 10 blover, lvl 9 chard guard + imitator, and a lvl 6 stallia so yeah...

The most telling part in the match you lost to someone with above 4 million is the fact that they had a level 10 Blover that they used in combination with the Chard Guard and Stallia. (Unlike the player who beat me when using only a low level Blover with no support from any 'knock back' plants.) 

At level 10 the Blover costs nothing to deploy each time and refreshes in just one second. That means the player could constantly spam the Blover while using the limited sun supply to top up any lost Chard Guards. (They probably didn't even need to use the Solar Tomato.)

Once they had their plant set up in place, their strategy was basically cost free so it's no wonder they scored 4 million plus.

The initial set up could be achieved easily with just 750 sun. - - -  5 Cold Snapdragons in column 7 would cost them 500. 5 Chard Guards in column 8 would cost 125 sun. 3 more Chard Guards put in place to cover where the first few rifts open up within the arena would cost 75 sun. 500 + 125 + 75 = 700. That means they could have all the bases covered and still have 50 sun left. After that it's happy days. Blover, Blover, Blover, Blover, Blover, Stallia, Blover Blover, Blover, throughout the match. Less any time to harvest the falling sun. I can visualize them doing it and it's all so simple to see why they got their score. I bet they were getting that in virtually every match.

Unlike you, I still can't figure out how the player I lost to scored 2.9 million. On its own, all the Blover would have done was get rid of the Parrots, Thrown Imps and the very few flying Zombies that came from the rifts. At the very best that would have scored them the same points as me for the same Zombies, but possibly a little quicker than when my Lightning Reeds took them out. 

Nobody likes losing, but when you can understand why you lost is easier to accept than when you can't see how it was possible for someone with much lower level identical plants (Other than Blover vs Lightning Reed in my case) to beat you.

That is the reason I wish EA could put their AI in better use, matching up a high level plant player with a low level plant player will eventually push both players away, the former finds it boring and the latter find it not enjoyable.

I like your way of thinking in dropping a league in the hope that there might be more actual players present and not bots to keep you entertained. 

I do not mind losing a game provided I gain new knowledge and strategies, so I can fully understand why you are not happy with your game when you opponent's winning does not seem to add up.  At the top leagues (Jade, Gold and silver) I think one should expect there are many 'talented' players around, I might give their setup a go to see if I can get a good score from that.

Oh wow, I had no idea at level 10 blover is free. Now I need to get mine to lvl 10 since I use it so often LOL
