Skill Shot: There is a slightly better shot at the top. The “B” lane raises both the blue and green bonus (a total of 1k extra!! (*wink*)). The “A” only raises blue bonus, and the “c” only green. It’s more important to get the un-lit lanes (the right flipper cycles) than worrying too much about the “B” lane. See right card (link needed) for completed A-B-C lane perks.
-reverse inlane/outlanes and nudging in. (slap vs nudge up & difference of individual games.)
-light spinner –target: risk/reward (and maybe waiting until multiball)
Tournament Notes
-Take note if the bottom left gate is removed.
-If Extra Ball is turned on, it’s worth going for even if it’s no/one flip. On factory settings, the Extra Ball holds the bonus and multipliers. So you *can* get a lot of extra points from just the plunge.
Tournament Settings
Fathom Specials and Extra Balls can be set to points.
