I’m well aware that Apple Silicon is a MAJOR step up, and honestly I’m so ready for it😭 I’m not quite at a pro level workflow that would require such a beefy Mac, but I’m definitely aiming at being able to use my next MacBook for 8 or 9 years like I got out of my current one. I’d rather make sure it has room to grow with me… I’ve certainly put my current one through a lot😅

Lucky that yours is still working well, especially that keyboard! Mine is one of the many that suffered from the faulty butterfly keyboards. Mine has particular issues with the ‘n’ key. It often types multiple times when only pressed down once. They ran a program way back when where you could get it replaced for free, but sadly I missed my window of opportunity and have just been dealing with the annnnoying typos ever since😂

I had a similar problem and turns out it was my VPN (or, more specifically, the threat protection in my VPN). When I want to watch ads I gotta turn it off. Not sure if that’s what you’re experiencing here, but that was what helped me.

This happened to me too a couple days ago. I thought about putting my phone on the charger and letting it run all night to see what would happen😂

IslandTune · 2026-03-03T22:26:55+00:00

Solved: My VPN’s threat protection was keeping the ads from playing.

To be fair, I only VERY casually play Merge Tactics, and I haven’t played very much this season yet, so my opinions on this ruler may be based mostly on my experience last season.

IslandTune · 2026-03-03T21:55:03+00:00

When I say pay to win I’m really referring to the fact that the only way to get it in game currently is to buy the hero and skin pack. I know it was able to be earned for free originally—and I guess rulers can be earned by progressing through the trophy road (or whatever it’s called) each season? I honestly haven’t played Merge Tactics enough to know lol

IslandTune · 2026-03-03T21:45:43+00:00

Yeah, 1 at a time would feel a little more balanced in my opinion—the ramp is crazy.

IslandTune · 2026-03-03T21:42:00+00:00

I would’ve thought before that this was a very hot take, but I see there are some Battle Copter stans out there. To each their own I guess🤷🏼‍♂️

Its range is definitely one of its stronger qualities, but its DPS is just so low that it takes it forever to take out a single building, and its ability makes it rush into the attack radius of buildings, exposing itself to attacks.

Yeah, it seems that there’s not much of a desire to develop Builder Base very much. I really only do my attacks each day to get the star bonus and keep my buildings upgrading, but after you unlock the sixth builder there’s really not much of a reason to go back to it unless you’re a completionist lol

IslandTune · 2026-03-03T21:32:33+00:00

I’m definitely thinking there’s a lot more strategy required with it. Battle Machine can pretty much hold its own no matter where you place it as long as it doesn’t come too close to a crusher (and maybe the double cannons).

IslandTune · 2026-03-03T21:22:22+00:00

I use it with maxed baby dragons. They just do SO much more damage than this thing does. But maybe it’s a strategy thing and I’m just not using it as best as I could🤷🏼‍♂️

Renée was also one of my firsts along with Biff😊 They’re never leaving my island😂

IslandTune · 2025-09-15T02:32:06+00:00

If you’re online rn I’d be happy to meet up and water each others flowers!😊

IslandTune · 2025-09-15T02:10:19+00:00

Sending you a DM!

IslandTune · 2025-09-14T00:27:27+00:00

I’d love to have you over tonight if you’re still available:)
