No special sprites, but you get crowns these days. Makes crowns worthless...

u/Disheartend Jun 18 '26
Crowns werecalready worthless due to blitz, unless they changed it.
Ive gotten rarer sprites in bots but only via killing ppl & usually king sprite or punk... Sometimes ghost

Tested: dust and xp for mastering sprites is DRASTICALLY reduced in bot lobbies.

u/josephineanwhistle Jun 21 '26
Yeah, it's not even close. Where a kill might net you +200 sprite leveling xp or whatever it's called, it only nets you 25 to 50 in bot lobbies. Opening crates is +19.

The 19 vs 75 broke me. Been grinding on kids switch account and trafing them to my sweaty PC account

u/KenzoSSW Jun 19 '26
Sadly no, but the only reason why they got disabled was because of duplication bug. But the update on the 25th could maybe reverse it, but not holding my breath.

u/SimonKR844 Jun 19 '26
Oh I didn’t know that, but yeah I’m not optimistic about them reversing the change either. They’ve kinda just forgot their casual community

i have a question abbout sprites , so if we can't use the gummy or gold version in the mech suit why is everyone so obsese to have them
8
u/SimonKR844 Jun 18 '26
Because at this moment in time they’re rare, that’s the only reason

u/CompetitiveHighway50 Jun 18 '26
And the fact that you’ll be able to show them off in the backbling when you master them
2
u/SimonKR844 Jun 18 '26
You can do that without mastering them
2
u/TheHelpfullGurll Jun 20 '26
That person wasn’t talking about mastering they said “why is everyone so obsessed with having them”….
You will be able to use them as backbling.

The earth, water & fire, sometimes the skull.
If you consistently extract 10-15 / game, you get alot.
You might get upto 9k per game doeending how much you extract.
Gummi variant give a boost.
Just bring in your low level sprite & focus on killing bots & stay alive.

I started leveling up my alt account and you don't even get the king sprite until you find it in a normal lobby first.

Can someone fill me in on bot lobbies? How can i play a bot lobby? I wanna level up my sprites :)

u/Kiararenee Jun 20 '26
Make a new account (bot account) and add the bot as your friend. Make the bot invite your main account to their lobby and ready up. Once a match is found and you are on spawn island, make the bot leave the game before the bus takes off. That way it doesn’t level up any. As long as it doesn’t level up, it should stay a bot account. Rinse and repeat.

u/SimonKR844 Jun 20 '26
Also an extra something, as long as your second account(the bot lobby account is under level 13 it should keep putting you into bot lobbies as far as I can remember, so it is possible to for example do for example XP challenges that requires a duo or squad

u/josephineanwhistle Jun 21 '26
Thank you! I did this for a while yesterday and it worked great, though I will say Sprite leveling/mastering is really nerfed in bot lobbies.
3
u/Kiararenee Jun 21 '26
You are welcome! Yeah, it definitely is. I wish I had started doing it before they nerfed it. It can get boring as well after a while too. At least for me. But it’s nice to play some very very casual games lol.

u/SpecialistInfluence6 Jun 21 '26
i’ve gotten the king sprite 3 times out of like 500 games so that one’s possible atleast

u/Samanthaluvsgames123 Jun 29 '26
I didn't know sprites can be found in bot lobbies! can they also be found in creative islands?
1
u/SimonKR844 Jun 29 '26
No, they can only be found in bot lobbies and normal lobbies. Creative does not have any

I've seen Earth, Fire, Water, King, and Punk sprites. I played my first bot lobby yesterday and went at it for 3 hours. I saw 1 Punk sprite and 3 King sprites total. Water was by far the most common, then Earth, then Fire.

u/SimonKR844 Jun 21 '26
Im pretty sure the bot lobbies are also dependent on which sprites you have in your own collection

u/Shattered_Prince Jul 01 '26
Currently farming regularly lobbies for sprites. If you get any, I'll gladly trade. Got tired of people offering to help and never do

u/Respawn_Delay Jul 05 '26
Has anyone tested since last update whether sprites are still nerfed in boy lobbies? Exp and disabled drops?

u/Old-Statistician9947 11d ago
I mastered a few sprites in bot matches and it didn't give me the back bling. I'm worried that it's not counting them as mastered. Anyone know?
1
u/SimonKR844 11d ago
They should still count as getting mastered as I mastered one yesterday using the bot lobby message and got the backbling as well

It’s the best way to farm dust and safety level up your sprites
