Here are a few tips from our best players (Bunny and Piggy) to become a Match Masters pro!
Choose your perks and booster wisely
Perks and boosters are the tools you can use to change the board in your favor.
Before starting the match, select the best booster for the match based on the game mode and modifiers, past experience, and animation length (if you're playing an event where the timer doesn't stop). You could select your best booster when you are On Fire!
For the perk selection, consider which perks would help the most in the current match. You could simply choose your favorite perks as well!
Read the rules before starting a match
Game modes change every day. You can check their rules by tapping on the tooltip to know what changes they bring to the match.

Scan the entire board
As Match Masters is a time-limited game, there are chances to miss some important matches due to quick actions.
To avoid this, always scan the board completely for the best moves before making any matches. Also, analyze the board continuously when the opponent is playing.
Know about match combos
There are different ways you can create matches! An extra move is granted when you match 4+ pieces of the same color. Match combos also create special items (Arrows, Lightning, Bombs) on the board.
Match 4 in a line |
Creates a Special Arrow (based on whether you matched horizontally or vertically) |
Match 5 in a T or L shape |
Creates a Bomb |
Match 5 in a line |
Creates Lightning |
Match 4 in a square |
Creates a Crosshair Special Piece (only in the Square Match mode) |
Combine specials
You can combine special pieces together for more effects!
Try to combine different specials, even if they’re not the same color. Doing this triggers both specials’ effects, and can gather nearby blues to build up your booster.
This also applies to certain boosters such as Billie Boom’s bombs, Monkey Joo Joo skulls, and Vinnie Valentine’s hearts.
Sometimes, the board may not have any possible moves that would let you match 3 or more pieces of the same color, which means that merging specials would be the only move available.
Get rid of extra moves
In most game modes, it’s a good idea to clear any extra moves on the board before using your booster.
This can earn you more points, which might help you win or set up bigger moves on the board.
It will also create special pieces that may be valuable and that you can use to your advantage once you activate your booster!
Be smart with your extra moves
Match the extra moves that are higher up on the board.
If there are several extra moves on the board, make sure you use the one that won’t mess up the others first.
A good idea is to start with the one above since it usually won’t disrupt the rest of the board below. This is good to think about when using the Checkerboard perk.
Use your perks wisely
Perks are small in size but they have the power to change whole game situations. You can choose any two perks for your match based on your playing style and match type.
If you switch game modes or events, make sure to update your perks so they benefit you in those matches.
Focus on booster activation
Boosters play a key role in any match! By matching blue stars, you can activate your booster. When you scan the board for matches, make matching blue stars your priority if you are looking for more booster activations.
Booster ready for next turn
Use your booster to build it right back up and keep activating it.
In Match Masters, it’s crucial to try to make your booster snowball in various game modes. This means you can use your booster to quickly build it up again and keep using it.
For example, if you use the UFO SE booster on blue pieces, it clears all the blues and adds them to your booster, allowing you to use it again. That’s why it’s important to keep your booster ready, so you don’t waste moves trying to get it back.
Sometimes it's worth missing an activation right as your time is about to finish, to keep it ready for the next round.
Use your moves before the time runs out
In Match Masters, you need to use your moves within a time limit. Here, every second counts. Be quick in your actions and try to use all your moves within the time limit.
If you find yourself with extra time, scan the board for any better matches.
Reduce opponent opportunities
Special pieces and extra move combos are opportunities that you have to remove or reduce for the opponent. Try to catch available opportunities to make the board worse or remove red pieces.
Stay calm
Match Masters is a quick-action and limited-time game. Make sure to stay calm and make your match decisions wisely. Don’t think too much, only focus on things that are under your control.
Never give up
In the game, it may be possible that your opponent gets more points in the initial rounds. Don’t give up, continue your match normally! If you use your booster and perks correctly and make good decisions, you might catch up and defeat your opponent.
Learn from your mistakes
The more matches you play, the more new things you learn in the game. Learn from your mistakes when you lose a match! If your opponent makes a good move in the game, use that lesson for your future games.
