Carrom Royale maintains the core rules of traditional carrom while adding digital enhancements:
1. Queen Control: Prioritize positioning to cover the queen after pocketing it. Indian players often use the sides for safer queen coverage.
2. Bank Shots: Master bank shots off the board edges. This is particularly effective in tight spaces common in Indian-style aggressive play.
3. Defensive Play: When behind, focus on blocking opponent's shots rather than aggressive scoring. This "parking the striker" technique is popular in regional tournaments.
4. Power Management: Adjust striking power based on board condition. Indian players excel at reading wood friction changes during long matches.
5. Festive Focus: During holiday events, prioritize completing daily challenges for exclusive rewards. Many Indian players form teams to maximize event benefits.
