Re: Clash Royale - Android & IOS
Barbarians lv9
Goblin Hut lv7
Hog Rider lv6
Inferno Tower lv7
Ice Wizard lv1
Spear Goblin lv9
Archers lv9
and then I pretty much rotate the last card between
Miner lv1
Goblin Barrel lv3
or Fireball lv6
The game has been fun but I'm starting to get worn out and haven't really been itching to play much lately. Right now I have three empty chest slots and unlocking my last golden chest. So I'll probably take a break for a bit and just open the free chests and wait for the next update hoping they add some new cards.

i keep playing this game and just keep doing worse and worse even though im upgrading my units. I'm all the way back to PEKKAs playhouse or whatever that level is called, haha.
The local tournament thing was crap. I played 4 rounds and just got destroyed by higher level players (likely hacking unless there is a legit way to have 3 of the legendary tanks on the field at once)

Re: Clash Royale - Android & IOS
I completely changed my deck and I'm waxing everyone now.
What I'm using:
Pekka (lvl 4)
Dragon (lvl 3)
Wizard (lvl 6)
Witch (lvl 3)
Valk (lvl 6)
Fireball (lvl 7)
Minion horde (lvl 9)
Freeze (lvl 3)
Pekka with a wiz or witch behind is beastly. He tanks and the wiz knocks out any horde type enemies. Only downside is pekka is easily distracted toward buildings if you drop them while he is headed to a tower. So far, it's allowed me to jump up over 2000. I'm finally getting lvl 7 arena chests.

It's to the point where I am contemplating dropping this game as it has becoming increasingly frustrating to play when it feels like I am stuck for long periods of time without making any progress. And another thing, as long as I have been stuck on Arena 5, I have yet to unlock the Lava Hound, Golem, Mirror or Ice Wizard. Other than the Mirror, I have never had any of those offered to purchase either.

Re: Clash Royale - Android & IOS
I spoke too soon. I have been getting worked. People are learning with pekkas that if you distract them with low level troops, you can swarm them.
I will say this about the game. If this isn't the most blatant pay to win model for a freemium game, I don't know what is. Unless you pay, you can't get premium cards or the volume of cards you need. Even though it clash of clans, you feel like you can compete without paying. This game, not so much.

Re: Clash Royale - Android & IOS
Yeah, this game can be pretty shitty at times. I went down about 400 trophies over the past week trying out new decks. Then yesterday, I went 10 for 11. Now today, I'm 0-4-1.

Re: Clash Royale - Android & IOS
I feel like the game's matchmaking is doing something to deliberately match you up with guys with decks that can counter yours. At least after you go on a small winning streak or something.

Re: Clash Royale - Android & IOS
I agree with this completely. They must be using some sort of algorithm to determine an opponent with high chance of winning to prevent people dominating.

Re: Clash Royale - Android & IOS
how did you get the PEKKA to level 4? isnt level 3->4 like 10 cards?
I changed my deck up and started using furnaces and fire spirits. its really annoying for the opponent so even if i lose, i still have fun.

I use the furnace also. It's good for taking out minions and spear goblins. Plus it's also a great distraction for hog riders, balloons and giants.

Re: Clash Royale - Android & IOS
people that are lvl 9 mostly know how to deal with pekkas. lvl 7's rarely do and 8's are about 50/50.
i think my biggest gripe with this game is how characters act. numerous times i've had one of my characters literally right next to the tower. as in the next step and it's attack. someone will throw down something, anything behind or near my character (usually a pekka), and then it distracts the pekka away from the tower. that's complete bullshit. if the character is locked onto a target, it needs to go at that target. no turning around or pausing. i hate that with a passion.

Re: Clash Royale - Android & IOS
I faced off against someone yesterday with the log. Is there anything that I can use to defend against it, or is it like the fireball, lightning, etc. where there is nothing you can do to stop it?
Also, after mentioning not having received certain cards the other day, I finally unlocked the mirror and the elixir pump card. I worked my way back up past 1700 trophies only to be knocked back down to <1500 trophies.

Pretty sure you can't stop the log. I faced a guy who had the bowler. It does damage and pushes you away too. Pita

Re: Clash Royale - Android & IOS
Anyone still playing this? I hung in there and made it to 2300 trophies only to be knocked back down to 2100. Couple of bitch points...
1) Despite making it to arena 8, I have yet to unlock a single legendary card. I am constantly playing against players with troops I have yet to unlock.
2) Every since I have been level 8 I have been playing more level 9 players by a very wide margin than any other level. They have even started throwing level 10 players at me and I have yet to even make it to level 9(few hundred points away). So it has been to my disadvantage nearly every game.
3) That Sparky card seems way to over powered. The only way I have been able to defend against it is with the minion hoard, but that's only if I am able to get those to it since other players are putting wizards/witches behind it to eliminate any threats.
My biggest nemesis is still the lava hound. I have only beaten it a couple of times and that was the other player did not know how to properly play with it. Miners are a bitch too as they seem to take a lot to defeat him.

Re: Clash Royale - Android & IOS
Still playing. Was up to nearly 2800 but lost or tied 11 in a row, so I am hovering about 2450.
I too was getting 9's and 10's when I was an 8. Sucks, but you can overcome. I am lvl 9 now. When I was an 8 and even now, I seem to do better with lvl 10's for some odd reason. That seems to tell me those are pay to win players with less skill.
I agree sparky is a bitch. My strategy is to have freeze and minion horde together. Freeze then horde it. Big pekka can tank it, but shit behind it gets hit too.
I have 4 legendary cards (sparky, ice wiz, fire archer and lumberjack). I only use ice wiz. If you see someone with any lvl 2 legendary or higher, they are most likely pay to win players.

I deleted it about a month ago and never looked back. The frustration level was always more than the satisfaction level, so that was a sign to move on.
