This will grant you more survivability in the long run, but you won't be able to keep your Combo because Full Clears take time.

The other strategy is clearing the maze to upgrade your speed stat. Usually you don't need to chase down the ghosts since you are immune anyway and you can just pick them up when it's convenient to you, but sometimes you may reach the cap of sleeping ghosts at which point you should make an effort to catch them. When going for this tactic, make sure to pick up all sleeping ghosts before advancing the level, they are why you are going for this strategy in the first place. And while this strategy can pretty much always carry you that far, you will not gain any speed levels and have a hard time in the end game. You will often end up with a 200 Combo, a couple of medals and be virtually invulnerable to all ghost until there are only like 30-40 players left.
This will net you a couple of kills and no ghost will ever be able to harm you until the Power Pellet duration decreases too much. It is entirely possible to always remain in the same Combo for a long time by only eating as many pellets as needed to advance to the next level. Full Clearing a maze takes more time than you get even if you eat the four Power Pellets with perfect timing. There are two general strategies that are often in conflict with each other: Going for large Combos and going for Full Clears. Red Jammers, sent by other players during large Combos, will kill you outright even while you have an active Power Pellet. They will sometimes be a mere nuisance, but sometimes they will allow ghosts to catch up to you or prematurely end your Combo by delaying your route to the next Power Pellet or Fruit. Jammers: Sent by other players (and your own 'Train' Power Up), Yellow Jammers will slow you down for a short while. Combos can be carried over between stages, especially if you get an empty maze.Ĭorner Boosts: Pressing a direction on the d-pad with good timing (slightly before reaching the junction) will cause sparks to appear, giving you a slight speed boost into the corner. I am not sure about the exact numbers, but if it is like in Tetris 99 then each medal is a 25% increase stacking additively, capping at four medals for a x2 multiplier.Ĭombos: Each Ghost you eat during an active Power Pellet will raise a number, increasing the amount of Jammers you send to other players. These give a multiplier on the amount of Jammers you send out, but one player is not worth one full medal, instead you will see your first medal growing in size before you get your next one. You also get all medals that player may have had. Medals: Eliminating players will net you medals, displayed on the right side of the screen. Eating a Fruit also eliminates ALL Jammers - it is the only way to eliminate Red Jammers. Regardless of which pattern you get, it will always include all four Power Pellets and both collumns of Sleeping Ghosts. Each Stage will feature one of three patterns: A full maze, a three quarter maze, or an empty maze. There is a limit of how many Sleeping Ghosts that can be active at a time, if you reach that then you can't activate any others (they will remain on the map though instead of being wasted).įruit: Eating a fruit advances you to the next level, repopulating Pellets, Power Pellets and Sleeping Ghosts. These will never harm you, but you can eat them during a Combo. If any ghost already has sleeping ghosts following them, they will always target that ghost instead, forming a long train. Sleeping Ghosts: Passing through these will cause them to follow the closest ghost. Eating ghosts will extend the timers slightly but ONLY if it is almost over at that time. The duration will be displayed as a circle in the middle of the screen.
Upon Eating a Power Pellet, all Yellow Jammers despawn (even those that have not fully spawned in yet) while all Red Jammers are frozen in place until its effect ends. Eating another Power Pellet during the effect will extend the Combo. Eating one will start a Combo and let you eat Ghosts for a duration, that duration decreases over time. Power Pellets: The four bigger dots in the corners of the maze. If you get an empty maze with no Pellets, you cannot gain a speed level. Eating all of them will net you a speed level, displayed on the left side of the screen. Eating a set amount of them (roughly 75%) will spawn the fruit. Pellets: Pellets are the small dots across the maze. I will explain how each topic works in one paragraph and then give my thoughts about applicability of strategy. So I thought this one might be helpful if you struggle to understand its mechanics. I love the new Battle Royale, but just like Tetris 99, it doesn't exactly explain itself.
