How tight is the ammo budget on Level 459?

Very tight — the walkthrough uses 25 of 26 available balls and finishes with just 1 remaining, so there is almost no margin for missed shots.

Where should Level 459 be opened?

Start at the upper-right gray brace where it joins the red-and-white corner cap.

The frame must fall away first; otherwise the side braces keep the circular stack protected and the moving pieces hide the base panel.

Smash Fest Level 459 hides red-white circular panels inside a gray frame; peel the upper-right brace and finish across the exposed base panel.

If the player asks you to sign in, open the video on YouTube instead.

Strike the upper-right gray brace where it meets the red-and-white corner cap.
Follow the loosened right column so the outer shell peels away from the central circular panels.
Wait for the right brace, cap pieces, and loose round pieces to settle.
Hit the exposed supports under the central red-yellow circular stack and let the tall remainder fold left.
Break the remaining left-side gray supports and allow the white-red panels to fall onto the platform.
Pause while the circular pieces roll clear, then expose the long white-red base panel.
Clear the base panel and its red-yellow target without chasing a moving round piece.
Finish the lone gray target block and wait for the last loose round piece to leave; 1 ball remains.

Colors in this level:

Gray, Navy, White, Red, Yellow, Blue

Firing at the central circular panels before opening the upper-right brace leaves both outer columns supporting the wall.
Spending a ball on a rolling round piece before the long base panel is clear can break the exact-ammo finish.

Start at the upper-right gray brace and red-white corner rather than the central circular panels.
Let the right shell and circular pieces settle before breaking the remaining left supports.
Protect the last ball for the final gray target after the long base panel is exposed.

Board notes 5 details

Layout: A tall gray-and-navy frame surrounds white panels with red trim and red-yellow circular centers, with darker outer braces, red-white cap pieces, and a long base panel on the blue platform.
Goal: Drop the right shell and remaining panel frame, then clear the long white-red base panel, its circular target, and the final gray block and round piece.
Opening: Hit the upper-right gray brace at the red-white corner cap; that right-side opening releases the outer column before the central circular stack is attacked.
Danger Zone: Directly shooting the central red-yellow circles while the gray braces are upright leaves the shell standing, while chasing rolling round pieces wastes the exact-ammo finish.
Mechanics: A right-to-left framed-shell collapse exposes a long base panel and ends with a single gray target and round-piece cleanup.
