Clans

• Best Belgian clans
• Team Belgique (1300 trophees, >50k medals) — my current clan. 55750 medals in last war, and on our way to beat that! Mandatory to use the chat before any trade, which is strict, but gives a very active clan.

Found through royaleapi.com, looking for top #1000 Belgian clan, starting from last one and up. It always scored lot of medals (>40k), and had >8k donation at the end of the week.

• Bring the W — First clan I joined (ignoring the very first one ^^). Was quite active in clan wars, and donation. Leader Slick_Nick (8GRRPCL0). Players Skully (#PJ8VQ2P2), RNG_Childsplays (#P2YU9UYPU), Agent gg (#82P98GG0G), Natan (#YVV009CL).
• Zio can (~600 war trophees, 30k to 50k medals, 45 members) - The clan that beat "Bring the W".
• CLAN ROYALE S.A (40k-50k medals) — Clan that almost won against Team Belgique.

Tips

General

• Tap the screen immediately after starting a game to skip animation. This helps playing as soon as possible the first card.
• Request card every day (eg. card from deck), and give also every day (to gain gold and fame that increases king level).
• Clash Royale | How to Pull/Lure/Aggro Units - Advanced Tech

• On aggro: how troop are choosing which unit to target.
• Exclamation mark indicates which ennemy troops you aggro.
• X-Bow aggro can be reset with zap.
• Use pull to increase distance an ennemy unit has to do before reaching tower.
• Pull: standard pull, chained pull, u-turn.
• Pull can also split an ennemy push over two tower.

• Don't play the Royal Tournament on the first days. Better wait for all big players to get higher in wins, to have better chance to meet standard players.

Strategy

• Defend for positive elixir trade!

• Make sure to spend less elixir, and ideally all defending units must survive to build a counter push (even better if we can drop a tank in front after successful defense)!
• Don't put one unit at time, build defense or attacks. One unit at a time only make elixir inbalance worse!

• Learn to play blank.
• Don't be too low on elixir, like play fast card after card.

• Having some spare elixir allows for reacting quickier, for better elixir trade thanks to better placement (force ennemy to make long distance).

• Cycle card when no defense in hand.
• Learn card placement, so that to escape:

• Area damage spell that would kill / freeze all troops and/or tower.
• Think of Freeze, Fireball, Marcher, Executioner, Firecracker/Hunter.

• Learn card placement for better defense:

• Put distraction troop far of MELEE attacker (eg. Knight, Valkyrie).
• Put attacker troop on RANGE attacker (eg. Musketeer...). Mega-Knight a bit special, aim mid-range to avoid jump damage.

• Play rather defensively than aggressively.

• Find the right time to build a counter push.

• Try to estimate the elixir of the opponent (did he play lot of cards, etc).
• Try to estimate the hand of the opponent (what cards does he play, what did he play, etc).
• Don't waste elixir, like putting a single troop at the bridge that will be killed by tower.
• Make sure that when defending, troops are still alive after defending.
• Wait to reach 10 elixir before playing a troop at the bottom of the map.
• Play cards fast, and together, so that they can all attack at the same time.

• Typically, do not play one card, then wait for elixir, then play a second card. Better wait for elixir to play both at the same time.

• Play card at the right spot, like:

• musketeer on the side of towers so that they can shoot but are not shot at.
• Use giant to protect weak but powerful troops (like bomber or musketeer).

• Always play meteor with value, like against an enemy tower + enemy troop.
• Don't play the goblin hut too close to river, but close enough to our tower so that tower can shoot.
• When defending, play card at the right spot to aim at the correct enemy troop (like play gargoyle on baby dragon).
• Against Prince:

• play Knight at the last sec to prevent opponent to play a spell (like meteor or arrows).
• or pl:ay Knight before the Prince is charging.

• Typical counter-push:

• Play a Giant in front, then musketeer / bomber behind. If musketeer is alive after a defense, add the Giant at the front for the counter push.

• Against Goblin Barrel:

• Can play arrows, fireball, barbarian barrel, skeleton army, baby dragon.

• Defend against Giant skeleton:

• Eg: A Valkyrie at bridge junction (square right below the bridge) when Skeleton Giant passed that line, and a bomber at 5th square from river, and 5 to 6 square away from Valkyrie.

• aim correctly fireball:

• Eg. against Wizard close to a tower, that we attack with a Lava Hound + Mega-Minion: don't aim the Wizard but slightly above, so that when fireball explodes, the blow pushes the Wizard towards our Mega-minion, killing the Wizard (otherwise, the Wizard would have killed the Mega-minion likely). Because the tower spotted the Lava Hound, our Mega-minion still alive can deal a lot of damage to the tower.

• Against witch:

• The Log / eBarb / arrows / zap to remove all skeletons. If played correctly eBarb can also make 2 hits to tower.

• Activate our castle:

• Using tornado, bring opp troop close to castle so that they connect.
• Against firecracker, put a building/troop close to castle so that bullet touches castle (location: leave 2 squares between troop and tower/castle).

• Against electro-spirit, play skeleton between castle and tower so that electro arc touches the castle.

• SirTag graveyard + witch deck Opp has to use Poison on both graveyard and Witch, which is not possible.

• Witch pulverizes Mega minion.
• Play Graveyard when opp is down on elixir.
• Mega-knight super utility card when opp is over-committing (note: MK does damage on drop).
• Against player with dark knight / prince / hog rider, just keep cycling cheap card so that to have the goblin's hut in hand.

• Starting hand play:

• Play according to starting hand. Eg. if play PEKKA at bridge, make sure you have arrows/zap in 1st 5 cards to counter skel army, etc.

• Opp should not attack on the same lane as where I played Lava Hound bottom of the map. Because if I can counter, and keep defense troop alive, then this build up a powerfull counter push.

• So, if playing against LH, better attack on the opposite lane. Also make sure to defend against LH.

• When playing Lava-Loon, and Lava + loon kills first tower, put Guards top middle to take spot from princess tower, to protect Balloon.
• E-Barbs:

• Play them middle, right in front of castle -> handy when Dark Knight + Prince on both lanes.

How to start

What to do if other player doesn't play:

• They refer to "investment card". But what are they?
• Miner on tower.
• Lava hound is usually risky. Because reduce possibility of defense.

Quick push counter:

• Opp plays lumberloon at bridge (first lumber, then loon).

• Usual defense is Idrag, well on the course of the balloon, but don't aggro the lumber (usually this is hard).
• Game: played instead EBarbs behind lumber, then BabyD on the course of the balloon. Opp plays Horde at tower, I play Fireball on tower + horde, BabyD kills the remaining horde and takes the tower. 1 tower for one tower, and hit K tower twice. Same elixir, slightly more damage.

Deck advises

• Keep deck speed < 4.
• Keep two spells in deck (like arrow and fireball).

Things I learned

• Don't activate King castle (with arrows, fireball). Note that opponent may play cards to trigger his castle (eg. tornado, fisherman that brings our troop close to castle and start attacking it).
• Against furnace + tesla:

• Opp was playing furnace + tesla on one side, couldn't go through with Lava Hound. On second push, played LH bottom left, then after he play furnace + tesla, played Inferno D bottom right, then Miner before P tower spotted the dragon. Opp played skel army, killing miner, but could counter with arrows, hence Inferno D could take the tower.

• React to elixir used by opponent. If opp uses 4 elixir, and we could defend, then put a 4 elixir offensive troop to counter push.
• Witch + balloon is deadly. The skeleton distracts the tower, and balloon makes lot of damage.
• Counterpush: Opponent attack with Hog rider, and then Goblin barrel. I put Skel Army on rider, and Minions on goblin. Then on push back, I add Mini PEKKA in the middle of army for protection (note: this could be arrows / fireball bait). This takes the tower and castle (against low level 7)!
• Playing against a Lavaloon + FB/Log + Edrag/Valkyrie/Minions/EWiz deck. Things started badly, but went better when playing Ebarbs on the other lane, defending them a bit with Zap. Morale: when you cannot do your normal push, go the other one.

Card synergy

• EWiz + Magic Archer: Ewiz in front of tower, Magic Archer middle (even other side) that does horizontal shot.
• Witch (in the back), then balloon at bridge. Witch's skels protect the balloon (they take the shot).
• Ice golem + Hog rider at bridge, at same time!
• (seen on tv royale) Zappies in the back, then at bridge at Royal recruits so that both zappies and recruits are in a same group (so 2 groups).

• Good counter is first ice spirit in the back, then executioner left of tower but close to it (square W2 or E2), so that its axe is well in group axe.

• (tv royale) Balloon at bridge (A14), then 2s later, Skel drag (C14). This kills opp's Minions.

• Reaction was Barbarian on other bridge, then 4s later, Balloon. When Balloon killed tower, send asap a Miner on castle (N3) to take the spot. But Opp. replied with Zap on Balloon.

• Miner + Zap (+Lava Hound): Miner on tower, then zap tower to re-target tower on the miner. Zap can also be used eg. against Witch, put Miner on Witch, zap, this kills the skeletons, Miner then target the Witch, and Witch retarget on LH.
• Lava Hound + Miner: Play Miner in the back of the tower, so that when pups appear, Miner tanks the damage from the tower, but then when King's tower activates, Miner is still tanking the damage as well.
• Lava Hound: Always play with a Skeleton Dragon behind, or Baby dragon behind, or Balloon. Get more value for the tank!
• Ice spirit + Goblin Barrel: lot of damage apparently...
• Rascals + Wall Breakers: they push the big rascal to the tower faster!

Card advices

Troops - 1 elixir

Troop	How to play	How to counter
Electro Spirit (w)	Attack up to 9 targets in 4 tiles range. ES can force easily retargeting (play close to frontmost unit). With help from P tower, Effective against most swarm (play middle river), except Minion Horde. Add Zap or Snowball to one-shot all swarms (except Barbarians). ES + Fireball may one-shot Musketeer and Wizard.	If crossing bridge w/o dmg, put a unit between P and K tower to trigger K Tower activation, very useful against e.g. Graveyard. Because of this, do not play ES unless opp is low on elixir, or has defending troops. If ES is tanked, Log or Barbarrel to one-shot it. Because of this, don't play ES behind the push, unless this is a way to bait those spells, and play Gobbarrel later.

Miner	Miner placement for tanking damage is very important: Play one or two square away from tower to allow for attacking opp. defender if any (e.g Play 4-1 or 5-1 if opp. play defensive range mid-map, or 1 square behind tower if he plays often backward). Play in the back of tower, or e4 / 9-0 to quickly switch from P to K tower and tank damage. Play more on -- or +- column to tank damage from center or outside, in order to defend Minions. Summary: if taking P tower, think where to put Miner to tank damage during P->K transition. Or if Miner to tank damage, think where defender will shoot from, and possibly don't connect Miner to tower, but give some room and opportunity to target a defender instead.	tbc

Balloon	Note: explosion damage makes also significant damage. If playing FB, make sure to push opp troop to that bomb. Against hunter: if we zap the hunter, balloon can always score a hit. CWA	-2 trade: Mega Minion seems to do the business (put also on path). -1 trade: IDrag, but put it on the balloon path, middle. Fireball, but must aim correctly to move balloon further from tower. Still will probably take one shot. To aim, target 4+- placement, and release finger when top of balloon shadow is half-cell distance from river border (see 13:36) Wizard and ewiz work well. Ram Rider very good apparently... May need some extra to avoid any damage though (Arrows or Archers). Cage: when B at 1+0 (between 1+0 and 1++, was played at 0+0), Cage at 0-2 still attracts the Balloon!

Troop	How to play	How to counter
Elite Barbarians (w)	Strong defense against: Musketeer. May counter Mega Knight perfectly if dropped on it so that they split. Synergy: Valkyrie in front, pushed by Barbarians, eliminating swarm. Fire spirit, place behind, to remove all swarm units, or deal great damage to crown tower. Single push: deadly if opp. is low on elixir. Prepare spell to react to defense! Against Tombstone: prepare Zap, hover 1 tile below Tombstone, and trigger when tombstone destroyed.	+3 trade: Skarmy (but beware of Zap, Log, Arrows). +3 trade: Tombstone, but beware of Zap on destruction! +1 trade: Barbarians. Time correctly to drop on 5-| so that they surround the one EBarb that was weakened already a lot! +1 trade: Ice golem + Minions Splash Valkyrie / Dark Prince, Bomber in combination with distracting unit like Skeleton and/or Ice Spirit, or Ice Golem.

Royal Recruits	tbc	tbc
P.E.K.K.A.	tbc	tbc
Lava Hound	☒  TODO: Watch again Strategy from Noc7urne (see also deck below): Drop place for LH: 13+1, 13+0 or 13-1 (against nado), 7+1 (xbow/tesla) and 14-2 (exec). LH first play is good move with this deck. Against nado: drop LH at 13+0 or 13++, so that LH can tank for the flank when you drop the support unit closer to the side of the arena. Against executioner: drop 14-2 Against Xbow or graveyard: play LH at 7+1 or 6+1, higher to time it correctly. When Tesla comes, Balloon behind LH, and Miner on Tesla (+also Zap?). This will allow Balloon to connect to tower. Against Tornado: play LH at 13+0 (instead of 13+1). This allows to put unit more on the side, so that LH can tank for them. In opposite tower: drop behind King, LH will make a turn (good for not splitting troops too much and for building pushes). Typ. against Giant decks in 1:1 opp. tower scenario. Don't over extend on defense. Use tower pv as resource to build elixir advantage. Top 500 LH Miner gameplay (Da Juicy One) Lavaloon Pro - Carl the legend (cwa) Lava, loon, tomb Some strategy against XBow: Try to go for a tower trade (ie. play other lane?) Split Barbs in middle to defend XBow, so they can tank for a long period. Do not play lava first (random win). Against golem: If golem 1st play in the back, normal time, balloon + minion at bridge is good. Then can defend the push with tombstone (4-3 placement) and megaminion on (support troop 1st). If no loon or minion in hand, either lava same lane or tombstone, then try to cycle. When to play support troop first behind K tower, then by Lava at the bridge? When we know we gonna need to defend (eg. against giant). Can use Barbs to defend megaminion (against Idrag). Against Lava, zap the puppies, to let the minions survive. Then play megaminion. If he fireball that, play balloon. Otherwise, just wait and play Lava again in the back. When to play lava + loon: against deck like giant + double princes, but not against deck like nado and buildings. Against Hogrider / Executioner: Don't give Ex lot of value. Play strong defense, and strip damage from Lava and good fireball placement. On Ex at tower, fireball him + tower so that to bring him inside the pups. Play lava high (7+1) if feels opp is going to play hog rider, so that to protect minions. Play loon at bridge to bait the rocket. Do not lavaloon, or give to much value to rocket. Play tombstone to defend the other lane, and must protect it. Start: Zapin hand is good start, then tombstone. Look for fireball value. On lane: If one tower down, better build push on other lane (to get defense from our tower). If opp tower low PV, don't kill it to quick, but attack other tower so that K tower is still inactive. Fireball: Wait to get good value. Balloon: Watch opp anti-aerial troop are out of cycle, then play it. Or lure them on the Lava, and play loon right behind (very close).	+1 trade: Musketeer almost at bridge and Bats. LH made 0 damage to tower. Against Lava Pups: 3 elixir: Royal Delivery. 4 elixir: Tornado + Ice spirit.
Mega Knight	tbc	+2 trade: Barbarians are effective counter if jump negated. 3 will survive, for a +2 elixir trade-off [1]. Tombstone can lure MK to activate King's Tower [2]. Put Tombstone at I05 / H05 (7-2 placement), or more expensive, at I07 / H07 (5-2 placement), then troop (one that is one-shot by MK) next to King's tower after it's destruction. Tombstone at I06 / H06 (6-2 placement) can have MK killed by both towers.

Troops - 8 elixir

Troop	How to play	How to counter
Electro Giant (w)	Better play on Elixir x2. Can be used to pressure the other lane. Synergy with Mother Witch, by turning defender into hogs, that in turn will attack the tower. Synergy with Fisherman, that bring defender in EG stun range.	Freeze + swarm ok since Freeze disable dmg reflection. Inferno dragon or Inferno Tower. IDrag must be played as far as possible on the side, such that to never come close to EG. ITower at 4-3 placement from defending tower. But Opp can use spell (Snowball, FB...) to bring Idrag closer, in stun range. If Opp uses Tornado to bring defense close to EG, play defense close to King tower, to increase chance that Tornado activates the K tower. Barbarian hut in the middle. Better defend with troop with high DPS but low attack speed (eg. PEKKA, Mini PEKKA or Hunter). So Rage is not recommended. TV royale: Play Fisherman in 6-2 (but other lane) when EG is 2 square distance from river, it will attract EG to K tower and activate it. A Tesla is enough?!?

Fandom "y-x placement"

• Used on Fandom wiki.
• Principle is (distance from River)-(distance from Princess tower).

• So 7-2 for Tombstone would mean I05 or H05, 5-2 would mean I07 or H07.
• 7-0 for a troop would mean next to tower, right behind north edge.

• In case of building, we take the distance between the building edge, not the bottom left corner.

Extended "y-x placement"

• An extension I'm using for more precision.
• y-x has same meaning as above, but for inside placement, ie. zone between both P towers.
• y+x works the same, but for outside placement, ie. zone between P tower and map limit.
• y-- for tiles in E or N columns, and y++ for tiles in C and P columns.
• y+- or y-+ for tiles in D or O lanes (ie. right in front of P towers).

Terminology

• Some naming I hear here and there.
• Front inside corner: w2 or e2 (ie. 7-0).

Commented game

Against DIOS (lvl 8, challenge)

• Opponent play first card badly, 7 elixir, next to king castle. Should play it really bottom of the map, and behind the king castle.
• We play a Zappy, really bottom. They'll meet at bridge on our side. When ennemy at bridge, play dragon to freeze it (to protect Zappy, making sure it takes no damage).
• Opponent plays a sorcerer and some giant, we play a mega pekka like giant, still to protect Zappy. Then a Miner, to kill the sorcerer.
• We have lot of elixir still alive, when opponent has nothing.
• We play a fire archer, to protect against aerial stuff if any.

Commented game - Against Dinho (lvl 5, arena 4, battle)

• I play Musketeer as first card, ok.
• Opponent play Goblin Barrel, we kill with Arrows, ok (but could we have let the Musketeer do the kill?)
• We play Giant at bridge, not good. Should have let Musketer continue. Now we spent lot of elixir, and are weak against counter push.
• Opp. play Pekka behind giant, and Knight.
• We play Minions, but too far. Should have waited for ennemy to come closer to tower.

Commented game - Against Aldobaglio (lvl 10)

• Was playing with witch, loon, ewiz, ram rider, bats, goblin gang, snowball, tesla.
• Witch + loon ok, but must play loon as close as possible to bridge (or Opp has more time to react).
• Snowball against MegaK was useless. Lose 2 elixir, and MK only loses 1 hit.
• Use Ewiz damage when it spawns.
• Ram Rider against Princess very good.

TV Royale

Miscellaneous

• Bomber: Play in front on king castle, in particular when other building in the middle. Very effective to defend.
• Tornada: to break apart some defensive troop (eg. disconnect a inferno dragon), or to concentrate troop when there is bomber that can attack.
• X-Arc:

• how to counter? a ice golem to distract then a barbarian barrel. Hunter can also attack. The Log + Earthquake + eg. bomber.

• 3 musketeer: countered by a tesla in the middle, shot by P tower and 3 skeletons on them to distract.
• P tower finish cycle: royal hogs, earthquake, log, skel, hogs, earthquake, bomber, log,
• Against Mortar: Miner in middle our tower, start moving, and Mortar always miss it.
• Against Canon cart: Guards are good counter (2 stay alive).
• Push with Lava hound: Play miner against tower before hound explodes, so that tower spots the miner and puppies are free to attack.

• Can be played with LH: Flying machine, Baby dragon.

• Defend with tesla:

• Nice to attract troop.
• Add defense, like goblin gang close to it, so they can attack troops coming from both side. Princess is also a nice one.

• Princess:

• Usually a bait for Miner. Miner can be countered with skeleton army, or goblin gang. Be ready to play either one as soon as miner is launched.

• Against Inferno Dragon:

• Spam unit very good to distract (eg. Skel army).

• Hog rider at bridge (in fact, one square outside the lane, so that HR jumps).

• Response is Tombstone next to tower, on HR path. HR put one hit, then killed by Skel.

• Push with Lava + I Dragon.

• Counter by Fireball so that to kill LH + almost idrag. Add a Wizard (middle, but so that he moves to other lane) to distract idrag.
• When pups are being killed, add Balloon + Minions behind. This killed the tower.

• With 2.6 deck:

• Against Princess, Cannon at I14 or J14 (or H14, K14).
• Against G Barrel, The Log.
• Keep troops well separated, to avoid FB bait.
• Against Valkyrie, Ice spirit when she's shot by tower. Skel also good distract but not on her, she must not kill them in one shot.
• Cycle the Hog Rider, use FB to kill defender (prepare for it, this will eat tower too!).

• If I tower, foresee a ice spirit, so that Hog can kill it (this also allows cycling HR faster then).
• If I tower too close of river, use skel to distract her, then Hog Rider.
• (Maybe I tower can be FB too?)
• Change HR push: sometimes with Ice Golem, sometimes with Skel. Sometimes add Musketeer as support.

• Ice Spirit at bridge may hit tower.
• Against I drag, Ice golem on n1-n5 tower side good to distract.

skully - playing with goblin barrel, tesla, princess, goblin gang, ice spirit, valkyrie, the log, rocket

• Play goblin barrel regularly (eg. as first card) to take damage.
• Against mega knight: play tesla in middle, then Valkyrie at bridge, behing MK to slow it down (it is killed by tower, tesla and valkyrie).
• Against mini PEKKA: goblin gang close to tesla to attract mini pekka.
• Rocket against tower, witch and elixir golem (hitting all three of them).

iosama - playing fireball, zappies, flying machine, cage, hogs, e-spirit, B barrel, recruits.

• Always play zappies between tower (so they split), or behind castle.

• To defend, drop when ennemy on bridge.

• Play recruits in the back.
• FB against mother witch.
• Cage against hogs. Add zappies if needed, close to castle.

• Note that Goblin Browler hits very hard! (279 @ level 9)

• Play hogs in middle, close to river.
• e-spirit to distract (eg. against mega-knight).

saed - playing with hound/miner/inferno D, barbarian, skel D, zap, arrows.

• Direct push balloon then hound.
• Push Inferno D in the back, then add barbarian at bridge.
• Skel D to defend.

Decks

Clashical's decks

Ladder deck (2021-12-06 onwards, arena 15)	Played a bit in arena 14 (2021-09-13), Was a bit easier to play than Boris' deck below, but difficult to manage the SkullyDrags, who are very fragile. (2021-11-10) Played by CMG Asuna. (2021-11-21) Played by Carl The Legend (see 2021-11 twich royal tournament) hog: play tombstone in lane. play lava opp. lane. play mega to defend lava. after fb on lava, balloon + guards opp lane. on exec in the back: balloon spam opp lane. If ewiz / tornado: guards. On Ex, megaminion. Against lumberloon spam: skeldrag 5++ On ex middle, fireball sideways (on him + tower) to push him further. Mostly play tombstone at 4-2 or 4-3. against MK, tombstone at 7-2 Against elixir golem, tombstone 4-4 still attracts it! Against Witch: balloon on opp lane. Then on Witch, Megaminion on her. Tips: Balloon + guard bridge spam.
Ladder deck 4.3 (2021-11-01 onwards, arena 15)	Variant from Rakan love Lava, where fireball replaces arrows. Played the whole Nov 21 season with this deck, reached 5634 trophees.
Ladder deck 4.1 (2021-10-01 onwards, arena 14 and arena 15)	Deck from CLASHwithSHANE, used to reach Legendary arena (arena 15). fireball to one-shot some defenders, zap to reset idrag / itower, or to reset targetting some troops (like mini PEKKA, etc) or finish some troop quickly, or also zap + fireball to one-shot lots of troop. zap+fb is expensive, so do it with value (aim several troops, or cover tower). Better zap first, then FB, but sometimes FB can be used to bring closer some troop, then zap them. Ebarbs for defense mainly, but also as quick punishment at bridge if opponent over commit (he is at 0 elixir). Lava hound as main tank. Use it to build a push, or as a shield to protect princess tower. Make sure enemy troop is stopped after the bridge so that they are shot by our tower (this requires timing). Make sure to add a second troop to get more value (like baby or idrag), or before LH pops, send Miner to tank the damage and get value from puppies. Miner to snipe some defending troop, or as a tank for puppies. Also effective against MK, combined with Idrag. Skarmy effective against Ewiz, PEKKA and Mini-PEKKA, Knight, Hog rider, Royal hogs, Gobarrel... NOT EFFECTIVE against Dark Knight, Princess if far, Wiz, Witch. Don't: If opp has Cannon, don't play ebarbs, at least if both towers are up. They'll be attracted, and most likely killed for no gain. Some Counters: Xbox: best counter is IDrag. If with Tesla, Fireball and/or Baby Dragon. Played the whole Oct 21 season, reached ~5400 trophees. Challenge: Won 4 times.
Ladder deck (around 2021-09-04, arena 14)	(arrow version) Deck from Da Juicy One #34 (Rich Slaton), played a bit in Arena 14, but could not score win regularly. Tips from the video: Tip 1: Get on Offense Fast. You wanna play offense because there is no much defense in the deck, no high damage spell, no building, but 3 winning conditions, so you wanna play offense the entire game. If you spend your time being more passive, cycling your cards, you have less time to deal damage. Usually play Lava is the right move, except if your opponent play very aggressive too first, then you may want to play Inferno first, or if they play Hog Rider, you play guards, minions (or if you don't have those, Idrag). Tip 2: Use Lavahound as a defensive Shield. Beat down deck they try to overwhelm you, and overwhelm your idrag, and kill your Idrag before it kills their tank. So you need Lavahound to block their support units, then Lava Pups can help killing their units. Same or opposite lane? Usually same lane, eg. when opp plays golem, to have idrag kill the Golem, and Lava shield damage from witches, etc. Other deck, like 2.6 they always go opposite lane. Against Xbow, best is to go for tower trade, because it's easier to kill the x-bow by dropping a unit on it. Tip 3: Track air counter cycle. In particular to when and how to play balloon. Tip 4: Miner is a tool first, win-con second. Use Miner as a precision strike. Use spell to kill swarmy unit. And second use it to serve as tank, so that lava pups, minions or balloons get good value. Tip 5: Identify matchup as soon as possible. Eg. because you don't want to play Idrag high to kill a giant, then they pull out a EWiz. Things I learned: Guards may do a lot of damage if they reach the tower, even more if tanked by LH. (arrow or fireball version) Deck also played by No7urne #1 last year #1 in the WORLD! LAVA GOD vs. WORLD'S BEST PLAYERS! (CWA) (2021-03-23) Mostly use miner on P tower, almost never in defense or as a snip (could happen on say magic archer or defend graveyard). Against golem: if all air troops are out-of-cycle, play LH in the back to force opp to play ground unit, then play idrag to kill them. Against graveyard: play LH a bit higher so that it can tank for the Idrag, which in turn is responsible to kill all mini-tank of the opp that he needs to get value from graveyard. Against hunter: balloon can always score a hit if we zap the hunter. Against hogs: Keep guards in hand to defend! Against xbow (+tesla): Play LH 7+1, then balloon behind at the bridge. Then on tesla, zap and miner. In general, keep ground unit for defense.
Ladder deck (since 2021-09-14)	Very offensive deck (4.1 avg). Tombstone against Prince. Q?: Can we put tombstone close to castle so that to force activation of castle (eg. if opponent uses fireball or executioner?). Miner: Use Miner before LH split in puppies, to get spot from tower, and tank damage for puppies. Miner can be used in a lot of mini-counter push to tank damage before defending troop gets to towers. Can also be used to defend in emergencies. Arrows: Ideally to destroy distracting troop in a push / counter push. Better not use it against arrow baits (like Goblin barrel). For these, use dragons or barbarians. Skeleton dragon: lot of damage, but very weak. DO NOT USE Skel D AGAINST WIZARD OR EXECUTIONER AND ALIKE. Inferno dragon: can be used as first card. Ideal if opp put a big troop on same side. If possible then a lava hound on front to distract all units that could attack Inferno D. WHAT THE FUCK CAN I DO AGAINST THE WITCH? Answers: let it come to the bridge, use LH as a shield to distract her. Skeleton will be shot by tower (if not too many), or foresee a small defense troop that will then follow LH as support.
Ladder deck (played until 2021-09-12)	Zap against Inferno D or T. However requires another offensive aerial troop (like Minion). Was a bit hard to play. Played by CHN | Boris (8PQRQG90C, reached #37 in TV).
Ladder deck (played since 2021-09-01)	My first LH deck, made by my coach ;-). Was very effective and fun to play. Goal is to build a push. Lava hound must be at front, tanking the damage. Behind, a Balloon to deal damage to tower, and/or other troops to defend against Wizard, etc. Be able to take damage on our tower to build a counter push (eg. wait the Lava hound to reach our tower before putting a defensive troop, like Mega minion, to defend our tower). The idea is that our defensive troop must stay alive, behind the Lava hound. Push / counter-push Main push: lava hound and balloon behind. Bomber + mega-minion or Bomber + valkyrie may also do lot of damage. Lava hound + minions also deadly. Minions could be used to defend then catch up LH for counter-push.
Ladder deck (played since 2021-08-21)	Play mainly defensively. Goal is to distract ennemy, making sure ennemy towers are aiming at eg. Giant Skeleton, then throw Goblin Barrel on same tower (who will then do lot of damage until giant is killed). Watch what kind of defense any has against Goblin Barrel.
Ladder deck (last played 2021-08-19)	Play mainly defensively. Put a giant at the bottom of the map. Giant may slow down an ennemy attack by taking damage, and/or build a counter-push by putting behind a Musketeer. Against Barbarian Barrel: Bomber, Arrows, Minions, Skeleton Army. Skeleton Army ideal against Knight. But it opponent plays Knight a mass area defender (eg. Valkyrie or Baby dragon), play first Minions to get the spot, then the army on the Knight.
Ladder deck (last played 2021-08-13)	First deck.

Minushcule ;-)'s decks

Ladder deck (2021-12-10, played in arena 3 and 4)	A deck that somebody beaten me hard with. Played in arena 3 and arena 4 (until arena 5), seems to work quite good (5 victories in a row, 6 cards lvl 7, 6 lvl 2). Think synergy: put Valk along with Prince, so that Valk get rid of swarm. Defend the Musketeer, eg if opp plays baby, play Musk, then Baby on his baby to distract. Punish with mini PEKKA if opp over commits (I guess in particular in x1). Against gobbarrel, better defend with valk or army (keep arrows to counter opp defense). Always send a ground troop with support against aerial. Time defense correctly. Eg. If opp plays Prince and Baby, wait for Baby to connect to tower, before playing skarmy out of baby attack zone but still to aggro the prince.
Ladder deck (2021-12-10, played from arena 3)	Changed minions against Baby dragon, for a bit more swarm counter. Played from arena 3. Fireball not so strong in lower arena (arena 3 or 4). It usually costs too much, area is too small, and cannot get rid of bigger troops anyway.
Ladder deck (2021-12-10, played in arena 1 and 2)	Deck used early, when got the Prince. Maybe a bit missing swarm counter. Also spear goblins and minions are both vulnerable to arrows. Played until arena 3.

Some decks that was hard match up (potentially good decks):

Ladder deck (2021-12-10, faced in arena 4)	Lost against this in arena 4, but maybe lacking some aerial defense... And FB might not be best choice.

Minushcule ;-)'s war decks

Deck 1	Deck 2	Deck 3	Deck 4	Comments
				Only 3 decks. 1st deck is main deck. 2nd deck is good deck with remaining cards. 3rd deck was improved on second iteration, when getting more cards. Won twice the duel with these two decks (while in arena 3 and 4, king level 6).

Lava decks to try

Ladder deck - Lava	Best lava deck last season played by EA Rakan Lava (#9, L9P08G82U, YouTube). Played this season by FRANK ALICIA (#13, 8U00VQRLC), <c3>Kou<c4>bele (#106, YQJL8PPG) Balloon: Played in front of Skdrag, it is pushed forward faster! Balloon can also be used as mini-tank, eg. to protect the puppies, or to protect minions / horde behind. Miner: When playing for tank, don't play on tower but play at 5-2 inside placement (front of K) to tank damage of troop first (eg. if opp plays a defending troop low enough in front of K tower) Alternative: IDrag <-> Horde, SkDrag <-> Minions. Deck with horde is super aggressive: usually go for trade. Against Golem: Play Barbarian @ bridge, then Miner on tower (5-1 inside placement, not sure why) -> tower down. Replay [5]: Replay [6]: Replay [7]: Replay 8000 top8 (15min): Replay 8000k top3 (7min): 1st game, opening with Lava, ignore Miner, defend Knight with Barbarians. Use SkelDragAgainst Dark Prince at 3-0 placement and if possible Miner at same spot to tank damage. Otherwise Miner to tank damage for Lava Pups. Arrows to weaken EWiz. Against tank (like Giant), IDrag bottom when Giant leaving tower behind, and if Giant defended by MegaMinion, use Balloon at river to distract it. 2nd game, 2 spells, idrag/barbs in hand, so Zap on tower. Against EBarbs + spirit, Barbarians dropped on them then ignore if surviver. On Giant + Sparky, IDrag on Giant, then SkelDrag on Sparky, but was countered by EWiz + Tornado. Later Barbarians on Sparky to remove it. Miner on King's tower to tank damage for puppies and also protect Barbarians coming up. Later opp still very aggressive, Balloon on King's and Zap to reset the Sparky. 3rd game: LH, Loon, Zap, Miner in hand, play Lava as 1st card. Opp with Sparky and GobGiant, countered with SkelDrag bottom (when Giant on last tile before bridge), then Zap and Barbarians on Sparky to reset/kill it. Add a Balloon on group, and later Miner between K and P tower to tank damage. 2nd round of EBarbs + Heal Spirit, defended with SkelDrag. Opp defend with EWiz + Rage, Rakan plays Barbarians very high center, then Arrows to weaken EWiz. Replay with Horde [8]: Replay with Horde [9]: Replay with Horde top1 7896 (22min): 1st game (Horde): both spells, miner, minion in hand, play Zap on opp's Goblins. Now Barbs in hand. Wait. At 1'20, Miner on tower, countered with Valkyrie, which is then defended with Minions at bridge. Opp. plays MArcher and Breakers and Miner, Breakers killed with Arrows (I guess here the logic is to counter V with M for +1 trade, and -1 trade against Breakers to avoid too much damage). Lava opposite lane, while on other lane wait for Miner + (new) Goblins, Marcher killed by tower, to play Horde against a new Valkyrie. On lava lane, Balloon right behind at bridge, then Minions and Zap to kill Spear Goblins. Then Miner and Horde on same lane. Finally a 2nd Lava, and Balloon, because in fact opp cannot make deadly attack anyway. 2nd game (Horde): Lava, Barbs, Minions, Arrows in hand, play Lava. Opp plays Miner and Guards opposite lane, countered at 5-+ with Barbs. Opp plays a DartGob center, weakened by Barbs, and finished with Zap. On Lava lane, send Horde at bridge, against Bats and Cannon Cart, and a Miner in time to tank damage. Keep pushing Lava on the same lane, while defending with Minions, Horde, Miner on the other lane to avoid massive damage, and when possible send a Balloon on the opposite lane so that opp has no option to defend Lava, which takes tower. 3rd game (Horde): Arrows, Horde, Lava, Miner in hand, play Horde at tower against a Hog Rider. Lava played same lane, opp defend with Musketeer and Cannon. Play Miner against Musketeer, and Arrows to finish it. Then play Balloon to tank damage, opp. kills everything with Musketeer and Fireball, now low on elixir. Wait for 2nd round of Hog Rider, countered with Barbs (note, Musk was Zapped), then play Lava low. Note opp cycle is: Hog Rider, then Skeleton mid river, and Log on bridge. When Lava crosses, Minions and Balloon behind (not in hand), and Miner in the back of P tower. Opp defends with skel, cannon, ice golem, all nice, and manage to activate it's king tower. Opp sends Hog Rider and Ice golem, defended with Barbs, which are fireballed, which is immediat ely countered with Minions. On last attempt, solitary Hog Rider countered with Miner at tower, and Arrows. 4th game (Horde): Arrows, Lava, Balloon, Horde in hand, opp plays Bandit, play Lava opposite lane. Bandit and then Breakers not countered, but Miner and Spear goblins on lava lane countered with Arrows. Bats on Lava, defended with Minions. Opp plays Musketeer and Zap in that lane. Play Horde at 4+1, and immediately Balloon at 1 +0 on opposite lane. In general, Bandit never defended unless troop available (I guess she dies too quickly after she connects). Lava played low, then Minions played very low when Lava shadow is touching 3rd row from river (I guess for opportunity of defense?), and a Balloon right behind Lava on river, then Miner and Arrows as support. Last push with Balloon, had Zap in hand to defend against Bats. 5th game (Horde): Lava, Arrows, Balloon, Barbs in hand, play Lava low. Opp. plays Knigh opposite lane, then Firecracker low on Lava's lane, and finally Hog Rider on Knight's lane. Hog and Knight not defended, but Arrows on firecracker, and Balloon behind Lava. This trades tower. Opp plays Bomb Tower, Snow Ball on Balloon, and Firecracker low. Play Miner on Firecracker, countered immediately by Knight (predicted, good play). Play Lava opposite lane, while Knight + Firecracker and a new Hog Rider countered by Barbs, dropped on Knight. Firecracker countered with Arrows, and Balloon center high right on Bombtower. Finish with Horde center high, and Miner on K tower, Zap and Arrows on new Firecracker. 6th game (Horde): Lava, Zap, Horde and Miner in hand. Opp plays Miner, play Lava same lane (Miner ignored). Opp plays MArcher low, play Minion (but next to Lava, but why not more on the side? To avoid being distracted?), and Balloon then asap Miner. Opp plays Valkyrie and Breaker, countered with Arrows. Opp plays Marcher then Miner to tank damage, countered by Barbs dropped on Marcher. Next Lava low on P tower lane, defending Marcher countered with Miner, then Balloon, Horde (in meantime, Breakers + Valkyrie had to be ignored opp lane). At each opp reaction, add a troop. 7th game (Horde): Barbs, Lava, Miner, Arrows in hand. Opp plays Bandit low, play Miner low same lane. Then Lava opp lane, opp plays EWiz low same lane. Play Barbs at bridge to take EWiz, while opp plays Ram Rider low same lane, and later Baby Dragon against Barbs. Play Balloon at bridge, opp counters with EWiz, so play Horde at bridge as well (outside, to avoid distraction), this kills a Bandit at bridge! Opp plays Ram Rider, immediately countered with Barbs played very high. Opp plays Baby dragon and PEKKA. This is countered with Minion low, and Miner in the back of baby, then Horde on PEKKA. Finally Ram Rider countered with Barbs while Baby is shot down by tower. Lava played center low, but same side as Baby to distract, while playing Horde against Baby. 8th game (Horde): both spells, Miner, Balloon in hand. Opp plays Bandit low, play Miner low same lane. Opp plays Goblin Drill opp lane, countered with Barbs. Lava played low, while on opp lane Bandit and MArcher not defended. Opp plays IDrag on Lava, at same time drop Balloon at bridge, and Miner in the back (-+ column), while Zap IDrag to keep Lava tank while Balloon connects. Opp plays is ignored, while Pups take down the IDrag, Miner tanks damage for Balloon, and play Horde center high to take P tower as well. Arrows on last opp attack to get rid of swarm. Replay with Horde 4th place again (9min): 1st game (Horde): both minions, barbs and miner, Miner on tower to harass. Opp plays EGiant high, opposite lane, so Minions (5-0 placement), then Balloon such that it is pushed by Minions. Drop Barbarians on EGiant, then Horde on Dark Knight, on the left to avoid EGiant attack. When Horde push back, Miner at 5-2 placement to tank damage in prediction of Ice Wizard! 2nd Lava on same lane, although other tower had lower HP (prob. to allow counter attack on that weaker tower, or because opp will play EGiant on same lane again). Opp. builds a mega push, with DKnight, BDrag, Tornado, only defended with Barbarians on Knight. Then Miner on 2nd tower, Minions played high center, and finally Balloon on castle. 2nd game (IDrag deck): Lava, IDrag, Zap, Barbarians, play Lava. Opp. plays Ebarbs, countered with Barbs dropped on 5-+ timed correctly. SpearGob on Lava, countered with Zap. Bomber on opposite lane, opp. sends also Miner to tank... countered by Skel drag to kill bomber (but strangely they miss the Miner). Balloon on the other side, opp. plays EBarbs, countered with Miner to reduce damage. Arrows to clean last EBarb, Royal delivery and SpearGob. Opp. makes several pushes with Ebarb + spirit or Ebars + Bomber, always drop Barbs on the splash first to cancel it! 3rd game (IDrag deck): Miner, Arrows, SkelDrag, Barbs in hand, Miner to harass tower. Opp plays Royal Ghost, defended with SkelDrag. Lot of defensive play against Ghost, RG, Fisher using Skel Drag, Barbs. First offensive with Balloon alone, countered by Tesla (in 4-2), then another Balloon behind a Miner (used as defense), against countered with Tesla. Finally 1st Lava when opp plays Fisher at bridge opposite lane, defended with Barbs on tower, then opp plays Ghost same lane as Lava, countered with IDrag. Tesla countered with Miner on it, to let balloon connect. When offensive goes on, Barbs played center high, a balloon on tower center high, then Arrows to weaken Tesla. Replay with ??? Attacks top 20 (12min): Replay with ??? Access to 7000 cups at lvl12 (12min): Opening: Zap often played on a tower if in starting hand. (I guess to cycle in another card?) Personal record with Horde: Royal Tournament: 7 wins. Classic Challenge: 4 wins.
Ladder deck - Lava (video 2021-01-13)	An easy deck with consistent results with very few bad matchups Boss_CR (video 2021-01-13)

Meta decks

Meta deck - 2.6 cycle deck

A well-known meta deck. Started playing with this deck during 2nd Clan War season. Very difficult to play but would help better understand / master the game. 2.6 elixir tips [10] Tip 1: Push smarter but not harder. Tip 2: Cycle with purpose. Tip 3: Protect your musketeer. General goal is to distract all units and avoid taking any damage on the towers. Played by: Nathan (Bring the W). To defend, good placement: 3-1 for Skeleton, or Cannon (eg. very effective against ebarbs).  ☒  TODO: Watch CWA video on this deck

Battle decks to try

Ladder deck - From Sylanawiskon (Team belgique clan) - 2021-11-19	Some deck he says he loses rarely with.
Ladder deck - From Skully (Bring the W clan) - 2021-09-01	TBC
Ladder deck - Some opponent - 2021-09-01	Attack cycle: ideal to start like this: ice spirit at bridge, then same time Goblin Barrel on tower. This makes -1000. Then Firecracker behind tower to defend, and Goblin Gang in bridge corner if needed. Then recycle. Rocket again EBarb. Inferno tower against big boss. Earth quake to chip damage at tower.
Ladder deck - From Skully (Bring the W) - 2021-09-01	Start with Goblin Barrel. Against Balloon or Ebarbs, Rocket. Against Minion horde, Goblin gang and/or Ice spirit. Princess also very good. Valkyrie very good to distract, eg. against Mega Knight. The Log to chip damage at tower. Tesla in middle to attract MK. Placement 3-3.
Ladder deck - Some opponent - 2021-09-01	Typical play: Wiz in the back, then add Mini PEKKA in front at the bridge. Or when defending with Skarmy, add Hog Ridger in the middle for protection.
Deck - Played by Théo - 2021-11-28	Deck played by Theo, and tried by Isma Chip damage with WB and drill. Put drill on side external, or in front of bridge. Bomber as defense behind valk. fire spirit against swarm or to distract.
War 2 deck - Unbreakable best MK deck (video 2021-01-13)	SirTag (found on royaleapi.com) Defense summary: MK to bounce everything back (opp cannot build a big push). EWiz to stun all opp. units. Snowball to push them back. Cage to attract all winning conditions go into the center of the map. Offense summar: Bandit, Hogs to make break trough, and heal spirit to keep them alive longer. If can't break through, Marcher to finish off tower. Opening: Hogs at river on one tower to see. Heal spirit on top of the bats, to heal hogs. EWiz splash damage on small units (spear goblins). Build pushes: MK in the back, to build big pushes against structures like tesla / mortar. On mortar, heal spirit on the other lane to distract mortar. Use Marcher to lock on Mortar and tower behind. Predict goblin gang, so prepare Snowball Hogs behind MK. Tactics: Play MK as tank to keep Marcher alive. Against ice golem in the back, send hogs in the other lane, wait for fireball, and play Marcher at bridge to lock on the golem and tower to get value. Against valkyrie with 50% life at tower, Marcher to lock on her and tower to score 4 hits at tower. Keep MK alive with the heal spirit, this allows to have multiple MK on map, with more jump possibilities. Defaut cage placement is 4-2. If too much defense on one side, hogs on the other side. If MK tank from both tower, we can hogs on any tower. Play bandit in the back always good (can leapfrog across river). Counters: Against Itower, requires hogs + bandit. Against hog rider at bridge: cage at 2-+ placement. W/o spell, this prevents any hit. MK at 4++ placement, rider only get one hit. Ewiz can also stun a bit the rider. Against Fireball + log: very though, this counters perfectly hogs + heal spirit. Don't play spirit when log is in cycle. Split the hogs at river to reduce fireball value.

Mini-challenge decks

Sudden death

Schtroumpf, sudden death challenge

• balloon, lumberjack, elite barbarians, freeze, dark knight, goblin cage, skeleton king, ice wizard.

Sudden death (2021-10-01)	Shared by Natan (Bring the W). Goal: play Lumber at bridge, then Balloon. Hopefully opponent will play a big troop killing Lumber, Balloon will then rush to tower, and we use freeze on tower + any defensive air troop. Played a bit Clan Wards sudden challenge.
Sudden death (2021-12-03)	Recommended by Boss_CR Cycle cards (in the back): often Royal Ghost, or Golden knight. Try to use GK dash ability to connect to tower. Think counter to balloon, and think freeze. Eg if lumberloon, ramrider 7-0, but ewiz or idrag at 1+1! barbarrel to distract, or against building, or against goblinbarrel. Try to get value from fireball. History 2021-12-04 4 wins (3 losses) in sudden death challenge.
Sudden death (2021-12-03)	Recommended by Carl The Legend History 2021-12-03: 2 wins - 2 losses in sudden death royal tournament (played first with another deck).
Sudden death (2021-12-03)	Recommended by Morten SK ... seems like hard to play. History Not played yet
Sudden Death deck (around 2021-09-20)	Deck recommended by Skully (Bring the W). Goal: Lumber at bridge, then 1s later, Balloon. When Balloon on tower, Freeze on tower + defending troop.

Triple elixir

Triple-elixir (2021-11-17)	Another deck that beated me. Idea it seems is to have always sparky behind a tower, and push back any attacks with MK, while chiping damage with rocket...
Triple-elixir (2021-11-17)	Some deck that beated me even harder Start with egolem, edrag, then add healer and exec. On attack, use tornado.
Triple-elixir (2021-11-17)	Some deck that beated me hard
Triple-elixir (2021-10-23)	Deck selected by Isma for this mode. Usual play is build push from the bottom, with either PEKKA, ramrider or bandit. Played with this deck during challenge 2021-11-07.

Other challenges

Triple-Draft Mini-challenge (2021-08-21)	Rationale: pick mainly legendary to have at least lvl 9 cards, and have two cards against aerial attacks. Princess: very handy to attack towers from a long distance (tower can't reach her). MUST BE DEFENDED because dies quickly, so play her very far. Also very good against Skeleton Army. Usually start with a Sparky at the bottom of the map, and protect it with a Mega-Knight before it reaches the bridge. Use Tornado to group/attract ennemy troop, and one-shoot them. Play Electro-Dragon by spotting the correct troop. Very useful to slow down an ennemy, making sure it is shot by towers, or to reset a ennemy Inferno Tower.
Mega-touchdown - deck 1 (2021-09-17)	Pick fast troop, like Prince, Dark Prince. Spam unit also interesting: Skarmy, Minion horde. Mother Witch insta-win. Barbarrel very interesting, esp. if can be played high. Witch good to spam as well. Skelbarrel because fast, and not distracted. Drop Skeleton. Play on both sides. Tanks like EGiant very good to kill small troop and must be stopped. 2nd deck 1st deck
Skeleton King tournament (2021-10-30)	Deck from ClashWithhane [11] Strategy: build push with giant and/or Skeleton King front, and Sparky behind, then Rage the whole thing on tower. Usually, we can build a push with Skeleton King + Goblin Giant. Rage can also be used to defend. mini Pekka against hog. defense: ewiz centre front k, to defend but be out of attack, or drop on small units. But centre usually very effective to slow down units. minions against tank. mini pekka or minions against hog. giant middle to pull pekka the other side. build push: sparky behind k tower. at bridge add giant, then rage. or complete with champ and/or minions. champion ability: when no spam killer. Can also be used to tank for the sparky behind.
Skeleton King tournament (2021-10-30)	Deck from ClashWithhane [12], with double spawner. Not played with.
Skeleton King tournament (2021-10-30)	Deck played by Isma, after someone beated him up with ;-)
Archer Queen tournament (2021-11-03)	Deck played by Shane, but also reported as best deck in top 100 (https://royaleapi.com/card/archer-queen, played by SK Morten, 8540 trophee ) lightning because this kills the AQ (and we know we'll face her). Push build: Ghost in the back, or AQ in the back (but beware of lightning, if so play rather middle). Against Hog: bandit at 5-3, then immediately after electrospirit in front of tower, and barbbarrel on tower. This means, one hog shot, and barbbarrel is in front, tanking for bandit for a small push. Otherwise MK. Against barbbarrel: ghost. Use of electrospirit: to force retarget on another troop, to avoid tower damage. If opp plays too much card next to tower (or eg building), lightning. AG Bait: Sometimes shane play ghost or ramrider at bridge when building is there, is that to force opp to play another card, then lightning it Against MegaKnight: Play MK on outside then Bandit centre. Or ArcherQueen (invisible). Can also play ramrider to distract and tank a bit (and slow down). Also barbbarrel more distraction. Play barbbarrel: as mini Log, but also as mini-tank (eg for bandit). Against Golem: Bandit + MK + Ghost. Push opposite lane ramrider + bandit (slightly behind). Usually finish in three-crown race (golem makes slow damage). When small push, ramrider map border at bridge. Against AQ: bandit in the back, and MK on the queen. Against goblin barrel: electrospirit on outer corner, and bandit other side inside corner.
Golden Knight tournament (2021-11-10)	ClashWithSHANE: Play defensively, build value throughout the battle, then punish opponent during double elixir. Start: zappies in the back, or cage middle. Powerful deck. Try to match elixir expense on opponent (ie. keep recruits for MK or PEKKA...). When countering a push with elixir gain, maybe add a unit to build a bigger counter push. GK: not used often his ability. Maybe handy to connect tower rapidly, or against many low health units (eg. goblins). Not clear how to use it so far...

2v2 Decks

Ladder deck (2021-10-01 onwards)	Deck played by Ulrich (Team Belgique) when playing with Guido... seems to have given a very fast win. Synergy: Balloon + hog rider.

Boat defense

	Used by Kaiser bier && skully. Resisted two attacks w/o losing a tower!

How to read the table

• Eg. Fireball, level 9, we have (=) Skeleton Dragons +2 (532). This means FB level 9 kills a Skeleton Dragons level 11 (=9+2), which has 532 health points. The equal says the elixir trade is balanced (4 elixir for 4 elixir, this assumes only one unit is hit).
• Units in bold are the one at level 14.
