Clear Cupcakes On The Left-Hand Side of The Playfield

Clearing of cupcakes should be your first mission in level 173 of Candy Crush Soda Saga. Particularly, the cupcakes located on the left hand side of the playfield in the second row from the bottom should be cleared. Clearing these cupcakes will give you the chance to see the bottles in the playfield. Note that the bottles in this case work well in clearing other obstacles in the level hence propelling you to the next stage. To clear the said cupcakes, match candies adjacent. Make sure that matches made have a direct connection with the cupcakes.

Match Candies Below The Candy String

Match candies below the candy string to ensure that all obstacles are eradicated and that the stipulated bear is seen. The candy string is high enough hence you have enough space to make fruitful matches. Considering that the key cupcakes will have gone by now, it will be much easier to hit your goal since the main task here is matching of normal candies. Make sure that your eye glance is evenly distributed in the playfield. This is an effective way of evading any loss of a good chance to save the bear. Each move you make must lead you closer to your goal.

Look for Chances To Create Special Candies

Mark all colors of candies available in the playfield. This will help you trace best chances that can generate special candies in return. If you have a chance to make a special candy, do so at first sight. A special candy will make easy your task of saving the stipulated bear. It will also help you raise soda level above the candy string. If a chance to create a color bomb is available, grab it as fast as you can. Use the color bomb you have generated to blast the stubborn cupcakes and to bring down more candies for better matches. The more the special candies you make, the faster you will complete the level.
