Re: Clash Royale - Android & IOS
It's a roller coaster for sure. That's what makes it fun and frustrating, sometimes both at once. I lost about 150 trophies messing around with my deck. I've been trying to use the Royal Giant, but most of the time it seems like a waste of elixir when I use it.

Thank God this game doesn't tell you how much time you've spent playing overall or how many matches lost. Just in wins ALONE I'm at 24 hours of play time. Easily the most time I've ever put into a phone game.

Just when I think it's time for a break, BAM! Ice Wizard from a magical chest. My first legendary card. Now I have 48 out of 54 cards. I'm still bouncing between areas 6 and 7.

Ran into an Ice Wizard this past weekend. The other person must have dropped trophies because my high is 1388. Also, question about the Mirror card. Have much elixir does it require? I don't have it yet so I don't know how it works. But I ran into one person who dropped out 2 Princes back to back and I can not wrap my head around how he dropped both so quickly plus using the Mirror in order for it to happen. I also ran into someone who used nothing but the same 4 troops the entire game. Not sure how they got that to happen.

Re: Clash Royale - Android & IOS
The mirror only costs one elixir more than the last card you used. So using your example, he dropped one hog for 4 elixir and then another hog for 5 elixir. I've seen the mirror used a lot with the Ice Wizard, since you could drop the first for 3 elixir and then another for 4 elixir.

Re: Clash Royale - Android & IOS
the mirrored drop should also be a level lower.
I got the Lava Hound legendary. it seems like a waste to use to me, like a weaker giant

I'm still level 7 but it seems like everyone i face in the 1300s is level 8. often they destroy me but i'm having more close games instead of blow outs. My interest fell some yesterday when i faced someone who was Elixir hacking. they dumped about 30 elixir worth of units in less than 3 seconds. I then went and looked it up and its a pretty common hack, along with infinite gems/gold.

Re: Clash Royale - Android & IOS
I'm a level 8 with 2000/5000 xp towards level 9, currently sitting at 2250 trophies. A level 8 should be in the 2000 range. I got to stage 7 when I still a level 7
My deck that i have been using lately is
Giant 6
Wiz 6
goblin hut 6
knight 9
small minion horde 9
witch 2
elixir collector 4
Valkyrie 6
Prior to this I was using a large minion horde and baby dragon instead of the witch and elixir collector. I'm getting further with the new deck.

Re: Clash Royale - Android & IOS
I got beat by cheaters twice in a row yesterday. maybe even a third time. One guy dropped 4 sets of level 8 barbarians and 2 witches within about 3 seconds.
The time i wasnt sure was a hack but seemed real fishy was when i was beating a really weak guy and in the last 40 seconds, i get a disconnected warning (which i have never gotten before) for 20 seconds then everything moves really fast for the remaining time and he kills my main keep. it seemed weird since he had really low level troops for his trophy level

Yikes, glad I don't think i've encountered any cheating yet. I'm in a happy place in Arena 5 trying to level up and finally almost level 8 which should help a bit.

Re: Clash Royale - Android & IOS
I finally gave up on this game. It was a combination of cheaters, poor sportsmanship, ridiculous losses and card pulls, and I'm getting busier at work.
After I fell below 1200 trophies and was in danger of falling to arena 3 I said fuck it.

I'm slowly losing interest in this game. It's starting to feel like a chore to get the crown chest every day. I did just get enough to get my baby dragon up to level 3, so I'll shift that back into my deck to mess around with for awhile. I'm also sitting on a magical chest I need to open.

Tencent Purchases Clash Royale Dev Supercell For $8.6 Billion
Clash Of Clans and Clash Royale raking in huge money for Supercell every day, with the former averaging about $850,000 per day and the latter bringing in more than $300,000 per day. In 2015, the company brought in $2.3 billion in revenue with $964 million in profits.
That performance made Supercell an attractive target for acquisition, and the company now has a new owner. Tencent, which has holdings in Riot, Epic, Activision Blizzard, and Robot Entertainment, has purchased a significant majority stake in the mobile powerhouse.
An $8.6 billion buy gives Tencent an 84.3 percent stake in Supercell. This brings Supercell’s valuation to $10.2 billion.
The deal sees SoftBank divesting in Supercell, with all of its shares going to Tencent. The change in majority control will not impact how the mobile developer conducts business.
“We have agreed with Tencent that Supercell will continue to be operationally independent, exactly as it was under SoftBank's ownership,” writes Supercell CEO Ilkka Paananen. “They understand that our unique culture of small and independent teams (or ‘cells’ as we call them) is what makes Supercell. We want Supercell to continue to be the world's best place for creative people to create games. Also, our headquarters will stay in Helsinki and we will pay our taxes in Finland. All of this is very important for us.”
Supercell currently employs 190. The new arrangement will allow employee shareholders to function as if the company were public, giving them the right to sell shares over time.

I finally got my second legendary card today, a Minor from a free chest. I'm only missing 3 cards now, all legendaries. The princess, sparky, and the lava hound. I'm sitting at 2400 trophies.

I broke my phone because of this game. I was up to 1800+ in trophies, and i went on a streak of like 10 losses in a row. I was so pissed, I chucked my phone and shattered the screen. Bottom line is, if you are going to get pissed at the game, don't throw your phone.

Re: Clash Royale - Android & IOS
ive been less streaky lately, instead of "win 10/lose 10" its been more like "win 2/lose 2". my favorite battles are still the ones where "your opponent has left" pops up, lol.

I've been on the verge of doing that. My wife has actually threw her tablet down on the floor in disgust. I finally crossed the 1600 trophy mark only to lose my next three games. Luckily I got 3 crowns on my next game to finish off my crown chest so I could quit before I lost any more.
