Revisiting Daily Diamond Challenge 4 - Empires and Puzzles

 Let's take another look at this problem and solution: 


It was pointed out to me that there is another way to form a yellow diamond. Instead of matching the green tiles in the bottom right corner, you can match the purple tiles toward the center of the board to bring up the yellow tile. That creates a straight line diamond as opposed to the L-shaped one that my solution tried. 

Unfortunately, it suffers from the same potential to be ruined by a three-match if a yellow tile cascades up. It is fun to see that possibility though. Perhaps if this were a raid board, you'd decide to make one match or another depending on which enemy heroes you want to avoid charging up.
