Strategy notes, tutorial videos, and outside resources.
Asteroid Annie and the Aliens pinball machine has 84 recorded tournament games at 1 venue. A game runs about 19m, the median of 84 timed games, so budget for that in a round with a clock on it. The better-ranked player loses here 46.9% of the time, which puts it at 31/100 for difficulty. That is a low-variance machine: scores hold up and the stronger player usually wins, so it rewards the favorite.
go for the drop targets
Watch right outlane -- be careful trapping right, and possible nudge from outlane back to flipper.
Complete as many top lanes as you can - each one will light one or two of the suits. Only lit suits can be claimed on drop targets.
Plunge any of the suits you don't already have to speed up card collection!
Complete all of the drop targets to light Extra Ball in the upper left part of the playfield.
