From the same developers that say Moonstone is underrated and underused? They can say whatever they want, I know what I see and experience. Either the AI "knows" what is off screen or tiles are being generated in their favor ps I didn't say they cheat, but tiles fall in their favor far too often. I've never had 6 of the same color drop in on the vertical or horizontal but the AI gets that luck too often for my taste

Without having a further breakdown of the matches it is impossible to tell whether this is because the computer is better because it's more skilled, or the human is less skilled, or that human fatigue has a far more effect than most people think (there are a lot of times where I thought I'm supposed to get two moves in a row without stuns), or whether fights against guys like Ragnarok or Juggernaut naturally greatly favors the AI in terms of cascades, especially if they've the appropriate AP pump.
