Do first 4 heats only. Register on final 6 hrs before the deadline. Skip fraud heats manipulated by whales lowering their squad power and that is through "bracket down" effect by staying at the bottom of brackets to redo the same heat.
Per heat it gets tougher, therefore different heats will require different amount of hours before the deadline of tournament's heat. First heat must last for 6 hours. 2nd heat will be 4 hours. 3rd heat will be 2 hours. 4th heat will be 4 hours again.
However, you must consider what amount of score during the hours estimated before the deadline of heats you have registered for. 1st heat should be 3000-4000 score max. 2nd heat should be 4000-6000 score max. 3rd should be 6000-8000 score max. 4th should be 8000-10000 score max.
If anyone beats you in any of the heats with the mentioned cap of scores above, then it is not viable to continue. If anyone gets a 1000 score per match then it is a whale doing the cheat with mortars multiplication score effect. Report them for cheating and don't raise the scores at all but redo the heat.
You may spend acoins for tickets on a heat you trust to win. 1st heat use all free tickets. in 2nd heat use all free tickets + 60 acoins for 10 tickets. In 3rd heat use all free tickets + 100 acoins for 20 tickets. in 4th heat use all free tickets + 200 acoins for 40 tickets.
The normal ratio to win match should be 180-360 score per match. Any lower than that means you have lost the scores whether it is win in a match or loss in a match.
