Complete strategy guide — level 13746

Level 13746 in Match Factory demands more than just fast tapping — it demands a clear mental model of item priority and tray discipline. As a endgame stage, it sits in that frustrating range where boosters feel wasteful but brute-forcing it without strategy rarely works either. Let's walk through the optimal approach.

Level 13746 in Context

Level 13746 is endgame territory. At this point in your Match Factory journey, you've seen every board element the game has to offer — the challenge now is executing known strategies with precision under increasingly difficult constraints.

What Makes Level 13746 Distinct

Level 13746 ships with 6 walkthrough steps and 2 pro tips — about 99 words of board-specific guidance. Reading those first is worth more than any general advice, because they describe this exact pile rather than Match Factory in general.

If you only remember one thing about Level 13746, remember the order of operations. The board is solvable; it is the sequence that players get wrong.

What Level 13746 Tests

  1. Move sequencing on Level 13746 — This step is about sequencing, and sequencing is what separates a two-attempt clear from a ten-attempt clear on a board like this.
  2. Booster timing on Level 13746 — Boosters are a resource trade: they convert coins into board state. The step mentions them because this level has at least one configuration where that trade is clearly worth it — not because you should open with one.
  3. Collection-bar economy on Level 13746 — The collection bar is the real clock on this level — not the move count. Every pick-up that does not move a trio closer to completion is effectively a lost slot, and slots are the resource you are actually managing.

How to Start: The Opening Phase

Level 13746 has a specific opening sequence that experienced players learn through trial and error. The key insight is that the first wave of visible items is a decoy — the "real" level hides under the surface pile.

In the opening, prioritize any clicks that reveal hidden items over clicks that just pick up already-visible ones. On most Match Factory boards, this means clicking items from the center-bottom of the pile rather than the outer ring, since central items are usually resting on top of others.

Spend your first 5 clicks purely on "excavation" — revealing buried items. Then take stock of what you can see and plan your first complete match. This two-phase opening (excavate, then match) consistently outperforms random clicking or greedy item collection from the start.

Tray Management: The Core Skill

The seven-slot tray is the heart of every Match Factory battle, and Level 13746 is no exception. The most common reason players fail this level is a clogged tray — they pick up items from too many different categories before completing any match, until the tray fills with seven mismatched pieces and the run is over.

The rule of thumb: never have more than three different item types in your tray at once. If you already have two red apples, the third click should be on another red apple, not a blue toy. Resist the urge to "collect first, match later." On Level 13746 the board can look deceptively open early on, making it tempting to grab items at random. Don't fall for it.

A practical trick: mentally label each tray slot before you click. Ask yourself "does this click complete a match or get me closer to one?" If the honest answer is no, skip it and find a click that does.

Mid-Game Strategy

Mid-game on Level 13746 is where most runs either solidify or collapse. By now you've cleared the surface layer and can see roughly half the board's items. The question is: what sequence delivers the most efficient path to a cleared board?

Prioritize items that unblock others. On this board type, there are usually 2–3 "keystone" items that are partially visible but mostly covered by neighbors. Completing the match that includes one of these keystones often triggers a cascade — suddenly 3–4 new items are visible that were completely hidden before.

Another mid-game principle: use the physics engine. Match Factory is a 3D physics simulation, so clearing items from one area causes remaining items to shift and roll. If you're trying to uncover a specific buried item, sometimes matching nearby items (even if that match isn't ideal for your tray plan) causes enough movement to expose what you need.

Step-by-Step Analysis (6 phases)

  1. The opening step sets the tone: "Level 13746 tests your ability to plan ahead -…" This step is about sequencing, and sequencing is what separates a two-attempt clear from a ten-attempt clear on a board like this.
  2. A later step worth reading carefully: "Create mental categories for similar-looking items to avoid confusion." Prioritising is the whole skill here: rank the visible item types by how close they are to a trio, then work that list top-down instead of clicking whatever catches your eye.
  3. The mid-phase step is the pivot of the run: "After using a booster, immediately capitalize on the new…" Save the booster decision for the moment your bar is nearly empty. Any reshuffle or pull is worth far more when you have slots free to act on the result.
  4. Step 4 is the one most players skip: "Keep the collection bar in mind - avoid filling…" Bar discipline beats speed here. Keeping two or three slots free at all times is what turns a losing board into a recoverable one, because it leaves room to react when a buried piece finally appears.
  5. This is where the level starts to tighten: "Use power-ups strategically when you're stuck or running low…" Special items often sit near the surface, which makes them tempting decoys. Clear the ordinary pieces around them first so the payoff actually lands.
  6. The second phase narrows the board: "Map out the entire board mentally before making your…" Planning clicks in advance is not slow play — on a board with this much hidden information it is the only way to avoid spending slots on items you cannot finish.

Booster Strategy

There is no rating on file for Level 13746, which usually means the board is winnable with clean play and punishes impatience instead of demanding resources. Treat boosters on Level 13746 as insurance, not as part of the plan.

The one exception worth planning for: a first attempt on Level 13746 that ends with two items of the same type stranded in the tray and no visible third copy. That is the classic Magnet scenario, and recognising it early saves you from repeating the same failed run three times.

Otherwise, spend your attention rather than your coins on Level 13746. Reading the pile before each click costs nothing, and on a board with no recorded rating that discipline is worth more than any single booster.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  1. Giving up before the mid-game reveal. Many Match Factory levels look impossible until the surface pile clears, at which point they become manageable.
  2. Neglecting to use the Undo button after a clear tray mistake. One Undo used immediately can save an entire run.
  3. Starting the run without a mental plan for which item types to prioritize. The first 5 clicks should be intentional, not random.
  4. Refusing to use boosters at all because of coin conservation — sometimes one well-timed Fan booster saves three future attempts.

Pro Tips Explained

The 2 pro tips above come from the failure patterns that show up repeatedly on Level 13746. Taken together they point at one theme — move sequencing — which is the skill this particular board is really testing. Read them as a checklist before your next attempt rather than as background reading.

Frequently asked questions

Why do I keep failing Match Factory Level 13746?

The most common reason players repeatedly fail Level 13746 is tray mismanagement in the opening moves. If you pick up items from too many categories before completing any match, the seven-slot tray fills with unmatched pieces and the run is effectively over. Replay it with a single rule: never hold more than three different item types at the same time.

What should I focus on first in Level 13746?

Start with visibility, not matches. Level 13746 hides part of its item distribution under the surface layer, so your first job is to expose enough of the board to know which types are plentiful. Once you can see two copies of a type, that type becomes a safe commitment; until then, treat every pick-up as a slot you may not get back.

What's the fastest way to beat Level 13746 without watching a video?

The fastest text-only approach for Level 13746: spend the first eight clicks excavating rather than matching, identify the two or three item types you can see the most of, complete those trios in full before touching anything else, then let the physics settle and reassess. This disciplined loop clears most Match Factory boards without a video guide.

Match Factory Level 13746 rewards patience and planning over speed and luck. Use the walkthrough steps as your framework, apply the tray management principles to every click, and don't hesitate to use the Undo button when you catch a mistake early. With focused play, this level is very much within reach. Good luck on your next attempt!
