Level Up Pinball League – Week 4 Recap 🎉

Week 4 of Season 11 was a full-throttle night of flips, drains, and some jaw-dropping comebacks! With the competition heating up, players are battling hard for every point as we near the halfway mark of the season.

📍 Division Highlights

Top Division (Mike, Tom, Nick, Andy):
The big dogs came out swinging, and it was Andy who stole the show. His monster 537M on Jaws set the room buzzing and gave him the highest single score of the night across all divisions. Andy ended with 13 match points, tying him for the league lead with 55 total points. But Mike wasn’t letting go of the #1 rank without a fight—strong play on The Walking Dead and Pirates kept him in the top spot with 55 points as well. Nick and Tom stayed right in the chase pack, showing this race is far from decided.

Matt, TJ, William, Jaime:
This pod turned into a grind-it-out brawl. TJ had the steadiest hand of the night, racking up 14 points thanks to a huge Star Wars run and consistent play across all games, bumping him into 6th place overall. William wasn’t far behind with 12, while Matt and Jaime traded punches game after game.

Gavin, Cheryl, Derek, Aaron:
Talk about fireworks—Derek exploded with 16 points, fueled by a massive 60M run on Cactus Canyon. That vaulted him into the top 5 overall. Gavin and Aaron hung tough with 10 and 9 points, while Cheryl fought for 6, keeping herself alive in the standings.

Chris, Chad, Jeff, Greg:
Jeff was the star here, putting up 17 points—the second-highest haul of the week—anchored by a clutch 42M on Foo Fighters. Chris, Chad, and Greg battled it out evenly, each landing in the double digits and keeping this pod balanced in the standings race.

Abby, Elliott, Jakob, Matt S:
This pod had back-and-forth drama all night. Elliott’s consistency paid off with 13 points, giving him momentum heading into Week 5. Matt S cracked double digits as well with strong play on King Kong and Avengers. Abby and Jakob picked up key points to keep themselves competitive.

Naomi, Chris M, Luke:
Luke brought the hammer down with a huge 19-point night, the biggest single tally of Week 4, highlighted by a 62M blast on Stranger Things and dominance across every game. Naomi and Chris M chipped away with solid performances, but Luke clearly had the flippers of fire this week.

Jesse, Jeremy, Ashley:
This group was evenly matched, but Jesse edged ahead with 15 points, boosted by a hot hand on Ghostbusters. Jeremy and Ashley weren’t far behind, keeping the pod competitive and fun to watch.

Norman, Crystal, Daniel:
Daniel came out strong with 16 points to lead his pod, powered by a commanding King Kong game. Norman and Crystal each had their moments, with Crystal’s 111M on Venom turning heads, but Daniel walked away with bragging rights this week.
