I think we were playing two different games here.You could have got more points separating those into multiple six star chests anyway.
Not more points. If league is your priority any chance to combine matches into a bigger one is positive. Dropping the chests is only a small amount compared to bigger and bigger 6* matches.
But definitely more flutter coins.
And probably more league progress (since a lot of work went into making that monocolor board that almost certainly would've removed more total tiles and given more chances for paws to spawn if they'd removed some of the orange earlier rather than saving it all up).
