WAVE ATTACK PATTERNS

When you reach Lv. 5, you will unlock the ability to customise Wave Attack patterns.

What is a Wave Attack pattern?
Whenever you do Chain Combos, you will automatically attack your rival by adding rows to their board. Those are wave attacks. This is indicated by the "[x] waves!!!" text in rival's board.

A proper design can greatly slow down your opponent's playing speed and even cause them to overflow. Have fun designing your very own Attack Pattern!
