When your weekly tournament starts, if we at that point don’t find any matching opponents that are in your league, the system might fallback to giving you someone from another league. Furthermore, the opponent might have been in your league when the matching was done on your end, and when that player later logs in, he or she is bumped to the higher one (because of 1st 2nd or 3rd place in the last tournament), but will still remain in your tournament. The stars they collect will affect you just like any other player in your tournament. I realize that this doesn’t look completely fair. Will look into in the future. Thanks for the input.
The destructometer is filled faster after a bird with higher level impacts on a tower. You get more score with these birds as well. Likewise the multipliers are lower on lower level birds. Player star rank does not matter. The pace it fills up decreases every time you fill it completely and get an extra card. Room completion does not affect it.
