Those 2 people must be really bad.

Whenever someone just mass tanks, i'll go mass mutas when they get to my cannons.
But mass tanks + ghost or hydras, i'll storm when the ghost/hydras clump up and mass mutas after.
The only units i use are ghost, tanks and mutas seem to do pretty well.

Just tried mass tanks and got through this easily!

Try to hug 1st set of cannons. Start with 2-3 tanks and storm once or two. Don't storm too much though as you want to mass as many tanks as possible before moving out of your cannons.

i've played it a lot and matched jewels at really fast speed
my conclusion is that you gotta be really lucky, or that it's impossible

Can you elaborate on the bs part?
Just kinda curious.

Edit: Just tried it again and seems relatively easy if you can match quickly like I said. Not sure what you think is wrong...


okay wow didn't notice they released a new version of it yesterday
the beta version's insane comp was impossible to beat
just played the new version's insane and i agree with u; it's really easy.

How can you train yourself to match faster? At a certain point I just won't be able to find a match and then I'll just get overwhelmed.

Just got it by massing tanks and using cell warp on cols / ultras. Thanks a lot for the tip (=

Yeah this is so frustrating to me. It's not often that I'm so bad at something in a video game that everyone else seems to be good at!

I did this last night with a combo of tank, ghost, hydra and warp cell/storm, like everyone else is saying. Just got to get the tanks stacked while they're wailing on your cannons. Once you get a few up there, send hydras to buffer, and storm any spam of small units while warp celling the colossi and ultra.

I did pure tanks with storm and maybe a warp cell.

I'm not that good but I found the variance quite high. I would often get demolished within a couple minutes, but the time I beat it I crushed.

So I guess I'm saying is sometimes it's better to be lucky than good, and sometimes the board just loves you.

Just a tip - if you are casting spells, you're probably doing it wrong.

I practiced it for quite a bit, and I found that casting spells decreases your efficiency by quite a bit. It's really all about the units.

On that note, I managed it after a few attempts with tank/hydra. The key I found is to build 3 tanks at once as soon as soon as you reach 900 energy. Then spam hydras, otherwise things will get too close to your tanks and kill them. If you lose your tanks, let them get a bit closer to you and then burst out 3 tanks and some more hydras. If you get a huge point surge (for the swarm level) start spamming tanks and hydras out.

The same principle should work with ghosts. You won't win every time with this, but you'll get it once you get lucky.
I first realized Immortals were reincarnated Dragoons when I saw them dancing helplessly behind my Stalkers.

Ok, so I have been trying this for a while. Pretty much all I have learned is that I suck at matching in starjeweled. I seriously just cant see matched. I am always doubled in points.

Maybe I will try this again in the morning when I am not tired.

Maybe I just suck really bad at bejeweled, but I can't beat this for the life of me. Not even on Very Hard.

Same deal with me. I can barely beat medium, let alone Insane. I just get stomped in 2 mins. Insane comps triple my score.

3 ultras and heal them.
Basically you wait till 1k energy, get 2 ultras out and keep in healing them. As your energy starts to pool, get a third one. ^^
Oh, you gotta be really quick on finding those jewels tho.

Easiest way I found to do this.

1. Get to 1000 energy as fast as possible
2. At this point the enemy should be getting close to your cannons
3. Pop out 3 siege tanks and keep popping them out until you have 8
4. Go pure hydra from here and DON'T lose any siege tanks
5. Trap any colossi that appear, don't worry about ultras they melt to the tanks.

I've done this strat multiple times now, doesn't matter if you lose your first couple of cannons as long as you can hit a critical mass of tanks. The reason you need 8 is 8 blocks the entire screen left to right and the hydras and marines get stuck behind. This protects you against banshees and mutalisks + zealots. You'll still have to pop heals every once in a while but any ultras the AI sends at you should melt.

Easily got this achieve just by going mass siege tanks and storming anything that posed as a *major* threat to them (every siege tank counts). No warp cells necessary, just as long as you're slightly ahead of the computer in energy.

be fast, mass tanks and be aware of banshees, they can be annoying, but 1-2 storms clear them
