It's always Greg.

Ok. I know this is a never ending claim. But everybody needs a time to shout her frustration.
I'm more than tired of Greg's ability to cascade gems and get full of maná and loyalty on first rounds.
I mean I have seen a 5 gems match on the board, and Greg doesn't take that move but, instead, a 3 gems match that ends with other several matchings. Again.
And please, don't make me speak about his suggestions to make matches. Very often, a minimal amount of mana but... how Lucky to him!! Making possible a nice amount of simultaneous matches on his turn.
This is just a tantrum. I know nothing is gonna change. George has been able to see what's coming on the following rows since the very beginning. But it makes very disappointing all my work to craft a good sinergia on my deck.

    In my opinion there are events with a higher likelihood of big cascades than others.
    What was your event?

    In my opinion, we tend to remember the "bad" events (Greg having great cascades) that happen to us more than the "good" events (our own cascades).

    But... I would like to add to @naabaldan 's remark that I'm convinced that Greg has several modes, ranging from easy (where he makes the worst matches possible, prioritizing loyalty and off color gems, ignoring match 5s, etc) to hard (always going for match 5s and on color gems or matching your gems when he can't match his own color).

    That is absolutely true @Machine

    When people start feeling this way, I advise them to go through the battle log at the end of each match and tally up the mana gains for each player. It should be fairly even or favor the player slightly over a few matches.

    Making optimal swaps seems to come easier to some people than others but it’s definitely a skill that can be improved with practice.
