my greatest fear is setting up bait teams but not being able to fight back 🥀🥀

I’ve never been in it cuz when I used to play master 1 was the highest 😭

btw always attack bait teams especially higher ranks

So I just learned I've been going for bait teams

I've never been in grandmaster because I'm in pure vanilla server.

Summary:
1. Small boosts matter (lab, landmarks, statue of heroic radiance)
2. Be in/make an active guild
3. pick the right cookies(not based completely off power) for teams
4. Use resources(soul escences, skill powders, exp jellies) wisely because they are limited
5. build multiple teams as counters because not only one team dominates the arena
6. Get more tickets always
7. Make a bait team for extra trophies

As a F2P that started end Oct last year I made it to GM this season in PV server (I got fs in 95 pulls) and I can never have enough arena tickets (and crystal). Did all the tips expect tip 7

i will say that for the bait teams, it’s better to use a convincing team that doesn’t suck, makes it more likely for people to not go: ‘this is a bait team..i don’t trust it’

its sad how it took me 3 years to get gm but after all these things they made easier new players just get in gm in 6 months

Yeah when I was newer I was too focused on power. To quote the great Pure Vanilla, "Power is not the answer to everything", and Choco Drizzle, "There are some battles brute force cannot win". This is especially apparent during arena fights.

I personally don't use bait teams cause I just don't feel like it, but I still look through the revenge tab and check what defenses my attackers had because some of THEM use bait teams

I've gotten soooo close (Elite 1) but never quite there

11:05  “okay that’s not a bait team.. 😅”

6:45 what teams are better against what teams?
Like, what type of team setup is weak against team 3, etc?
(Hope this makes sense, I’m running on 2 hours of sleep and too much caffeine lol)

9:14 I didn't know you could buy fateful cookie cutters for crystals

me, just checking to see if i'm not missing anything:
smc and pv: VIBING

Me watching this knowing damn well im sitting up there

my biggest issue is not hitting grandmaster, its staying in there long enough. It has been 5 seasons and I always fell out basically last second :/

As an f2p i follow the thing to max out the important cookies but then theres affogato and mango my favs that im maxing out both:D

i’m in a guild that me and my irl friends made but they are not active anymore 😢😢 i dont wanna leave them tho :<

i just started playing in late february- march and im currently fighting for my life in elite 2🙏 (f2p)
