Waste of balls refers to when you repeatedly touch the screen to throw many balls quickly. Often, the amount of balls used are quite excessive and unnecessary.
Disadvantages[]
There are some disadvantages by wasting a lot of balls like wasting hundreds or thousands of them.
- Lag: By throwing a lot of balls with the maximum multiball (which is 5), there could be a lot of lag.
- Stop Glitch: Wasting balls has a chance of causing the Stop Glitch since it smashes a lot of glass, and forces the device to focus on the breaking and throwing instead of the music.

- Lack of balls in later levels: You wasted the balls early on, so you can't get them back.
- Annoying to viewers: Some people would rather see the balls better used, and don't want to hear the constant ball-throwing sound (though the breaking noise is good.).
- Running out of balls: Do not waste ALL of your balls, it could be annoying because you would run out of balls.
- Missing some crystals: Throwing balls anywhere on the screen is not a good idea because you could miss some crystals (and lose your multiball).
- The average ball count and hitrate shown in the statistics menu will be reduced.
