Why Were Three Musketeers Added To Clash Royale?

- Three Musketeers looking at first glance seems like a really random addition. How is taking an already existing troop and just tripling it warrant an entire card slot? Why would they do this when there is obviously going to be balancing issues between the Three Musketeers and the Musketeer? This video covers the entire history of this card, going over the metas this card has been involved in, and dissecting each balance change and how it's affected the card.

Me omw to travel back in time and tell Alexandre Dumas to write a novel called "The three mega knights": 🏃💨
Holy shit I'm famous thx Gratz
😂
pls dont
"The ten elite barbarians"
would be so op
i say we introduce 3 hog riders next to see what happens
Good idea
That'd actually be an interesting challenge
THIS COMMENT IS A WAR CRIME 🔊🔊🔊
hog rider having a nerf and if the 3 hog riders is 10 elixir it might be maybe possible lol
Hog Rider army, 15 hog riders for 3 elixir
Or, call of the hog rider, a spell that summons 19 hog riders over time for 0 elixir
3 girls 1 fireball💀
Oh what the hell 😭😭😭
My god, makes so much sense🤣
Strangely one of the most unique card in clash Royale. A lot of cards like this have a very clear usage as support, offense, defence, etc. NO card in the game plays as weirdly as the wincondition that are just 3 support cards
It's kind of like Ebarbs in that way. It's not REALLY a win condition, but it's not really a defense card either, so the main way it's played nowadays is just as a kind of spam card in decks like that infamous golden knight ebarbs pump one where you either win 3-0 or don't even reach your opponent's tower

They should also add 3 minions, it's different from the minions card because it has a 3 in front of it
They should add the "minion" it's literally just 1 minion for 1 elixir
@hellhound74 that would be cool, and funny lol
3 mega minion 💀💀
Minion horde should just be called “two minions” then lmao
@@Shooshawali no because this is a new card not a replacement card it's "minion" and it's just one
Minions will still exist and minion horde will still be garbage
They were one of the most unique archetypes in the game. If you’d ask someone to think of a new one nobody would say 3m. Supercell should just reskin the card into something else so they can balance it properly. I always hated facing them but once they’re gone something is missing.
I still play the old version
Honestly 3M are just bad for the overall meta when they're good, they push out so many decks that don't really have enough counters to them, like most decks with no big spell. They make the whole CR gameplay even more revolved on spells, which is not a good thing imo
3 musketeers, x-bow and drill are all high skill archetypes and have similar 1-2 % usage rates. They appear dead in ladder but one tricks like Ice entrance/Sl palomita (3m), Eragon/Betfas (xbow), Asaf/Alphqq (drill) always finish high.
@@Rikka_V1 xbow high skill, fuck outta here
It's complicated. As a 3m main (pb 2400 medals) myself I don't want it to be buffed as it will also mean a buff to musketeer which promotes cheap fireball cycle decks which makes the meta even worse. I am fine with the 3m's current state.
Three Musketeers, Mirror, and clone are the chaotic evil of balancing cards, because they do precisely what they're intended to
"Doing exactly what they're supposed to do" sounds like Lawful Evil to me.

At this point, Supercell has to just bite the bullet and rework every card that reuses troops to use a unique version of that troop. Goblins and Barbs can’t possibly be changed if they’re in 5 different cards each. Musketeer is impossible to balance when Three Musketeers exist.
Exactly! Give the 3 musketeers a shield and lower their damage and they'll be so much better and now the single one is free to be changed however
I think the only cards that can use exact versions of the same troops are cards that use skeletons/bats and goblin gang/barrel, witch is horrible and is fine spawning normal skeletons, tombstone is fine as defense, night witch is actually bad but the bats are good support, bats and skeletons themselves are good cards, goblin gang is fine as is and goblin barrel is just a miner version of 3 goblins
As someone who doesn't play or watch clash royale content
This really sounded like it would have been a easy fix if they bothered to code them to be different entities instead of just spawning X amount of a troop
yeah but since when did they care lmao
That's a stupid idea, why would they make a card that's supposed to spawn a specific troop different to the troop in question? It does nothing but create inconsistencies
3 M was obviously originally supposed to be a filler card just like Goblin Gang, Minion Horde and Skeleton Army
Its not, because it costs 9(10) elixir, it was always supposed to be a win condition
@@downintheseas it can be a win condition and a filler card
Skeletons is more of a filler than skeleton army

Don't give them ideas
This really takes me back. As a hound player back then, i was always aware of and frustrated by how oppressive they were. I remember i decided to work on maxing 3M, and legitimately the day after I maxed them, the cost got raised to 10.
Lol i remember in 2017 i really wanted to get night witch since she was really busted. I got her a week after she got nerfed hard
i really appreciate how you pick funny gameplay clips sometimes. Like the musketeers walking up and taking towers... and a rocket flies by aimed at the king tower
You should do the history of splashyard/graveyard decks
@@floppa2948So much fun
Even with OP archers it still used to get hits on my tower
Funny to me that they're usually very strong decks in meta but somehow i rarely ever heard people hating on them for being so strong like how they hate on egiant, rg, golem, ebarbs, xbow, hog & gob barrel when they were strong decks
@@accountant3847 there’s this thought that graveyard decks, no matter how broken they might have been one day, especially with SK, would always take skill. Other cards like X-Bow, which I think can be harder to use, or 3M which is my favourite win con, have this “omg its so no skill” response from the community because the community are 9-year olds who can’t counter a good 3M deck or might get hard countered by Xbow and break their phone 😂

Hi, I'm the guy who had requested a video about the 3 Musketeers a few videos ago, I did not expect a video about it so soon and I just want to say thank you and great job. The video was informative, entertaining and provided a unique perspective about its existence and history that I had never thought of. Thank you for making a video about it and keep up the amazing content.

this card alone forces players to have a big/small+medium spell just in case they show up, you can make it impossible to push either lane for 30s and make them waste so much elixir on top of dealing good damage. Honestly, they should've just changed them into another unit with 4, weaker range+hp , but higher total dps. That would allow far more counterplay, other then stun them/kill them before they even get to shoot which not all decks can do, and if they can, that's a statement of how meta-defining it is
a big spell is pretty much necessary anyway tho
The three goblin gunners
Keep pumping out the content man! I may not play anymore but looking back at the history of the game is always fun!
I genuinely cannot believe the quality and depth of these videos. Please keep them coming 🙏🏻
The rework to 3M that I've always proposed was making so they are placed in a horizontal line, 2 tiles between each of them. That way, a fire ball or rocket will only hit two of them in most cases, causing the positive trade from this to still leave the opponent with an extra musk. The only problem i could see this causing is making pocket 3M less effective, since i believe only 2 would aggro onto to tower, while the other would split off. What do you guys feel about this rework?
It is stupid you already can Split them. your idea is horrible
That actually sounds very plausible, I wonder how they couldn't think of that.
So implement more Royal Recruits type of spawning.
Never have an idea again. 3m should obviously have there elixir reduced to 6, have one removed, given cool helmets and swords, and have there movement speed increased to very fast.
I feel like that would be too OP

Amazing videos. Would not have known this without you making these awesome vids. Thanks!
These videos are really fun to watch and have made me consider playing the game. I probably won't because the barrier of entry seems huge but I'll keep watching these anyways. Nice work!
You should do a video about the elixir collector, it’s such a unique card.
I absolutely love your work! Been here from the start and hope for many videos to come!
Based on the deletion of the Heal spell and the upcoming Battle Healer buff, I can't wait for Elixir Golem + Battle Healer + 3 Musketeers!
I dread this
Heal spell and 3 M was a nightmare. If you fireballed them a heal spell was enough to bring them back to full health

Well researched and executed, very well done. Also loved getting a glimpse back through Clash's history.
I dont even play the game, and still got hooked on these videos. So well put together. Also the narrating voice is so soothing too. 10/10 channel.
Dude you saved my life I had pizza hut and needed something good to watch or I couldn't eat it (you know the rules) and when I could feel the pizza start to cool down all hope was lost and then I saw that you uploaded again and it's a crisp 20 minute video that talks about the history of the meta of a game and I love long videos so thank you you never dissapoint
Gratz, your videos are absolutely amazing and straight to the point. You deserve 1 million subs!!
no
Never knew I needed super informative videos on the history of cards on a mobile game. Keep up the great vids
Thank you for doing a three muskies video. They're my favorite card and Majority of decks I play involve them. Absolutely love the video.
I dont even play this game lol
SHUT UP AND LOOK AT MY CROISSANT 👉🥐
Same. Yet we keep watching and idk why.
I find videos like these so funny because while everyone else is reminiscing the early state of the game is the main state I remember. I played when the game first came out for a few months n stopped playing in 2017 to lost data. I’m more familiar with all the original ways the game use to play as opposed to all the newer systems and improvements later on. I still remember not caring for the 3m due to its cost plus I never saw the appeal to using 3 of a card I didn’t care for anyway (the single card). Ironically me randomly finding the video on another character is what led me to start over and play again. It’s been long enough that the annoyance of losing my progress no longer has an effect on me😂
My favorite card easily. Been rocking it since it came out & haven't stopped using it since. Wonderful video
Keep up the good work man your content has been very well edited and has been put together beautifully.
you should do a video on X-Bow, a deep dive on how it's so hated, and it's history, that'd be interesting
boy,do I have news for you.

i literally love your videos i watch them repeatedly legit the same vids again and again and im never bored!
Just wanted to say I enjoy watching these videos. Thank you for pumping out good content 👌
It would be interesting to see a video about elixir collector, it feels like, similar to mirror, it’s one of those cards that is impossible to balance
12:01 "Which made the game feel more luck-based because it seemed like the determining factor of a win was what kind of deck you were up against rather than your skill level"
You say this like it wasn't always like that (it was).
….
That is how card games go
Your videos are so well put together keep continuing your content 💪🏾
dood your cinematography with music is great I love it
Well at least 3 musketeers is the best 9 elixir cards.
I've been using my PEKKA 3 musks deck since jungle arena in 2017. If I get my cycle right, I can 3-crown in the first 40 seconds. PEKKA+3musks on one side, barbs and goblins on the other, it's very rare that someone can save both towers. It's so funny seeing someone every few matches just go afk when I place my units. I love this deck because it counters spam decks like princess log bait and hog cycle so hard, and those decks are terribly annoying and used to frustrate me a lot, still do. That's why I picked it up in the first place. I'll always love three muskeys for carrying me for the past 6 years.
The scripts for these videos keep getting better, that conclusion was so crispy. Well done sir
Man, it always feels quite nostalgic when you show those old meta decks in these documentaries.... I remember them all... :D
A gift from the gods Gratz uploaded
This youtuber came out of nowhere but i feel like i watch him for years
Another banger like usual well done my dude
I never saw a person doing so much indept research for Clash Royale game. You have my sub, keep it up!
I havent watched the video yet but im pretty certain it only exists as a reference to "the three musketeers". back then they didnt add every card to fill a niche, they just added whatever they felt like.
We have 3 musketeers but not 3 mini Pekkas ??? 😤😤😤
As someone who has really only played clash Royale during its first couple years this video was amazing in telling the story of this weird expensive card. Great job I thoroughly enjoyed this walk through time.
Your channel is literally the most underrated thing ever
Can you make a video on the downfall of the elixir collector? As you said in this video this building was the most used card at top ladder at some point, but now it sees no use.
Three hog riders would make me quit fr
Gratz, you are so much good at what you make, I love your videos
BRO KEEP GROWING YOUR CHANNEL! YOU'RE DOING GREAT!!!
I feel like they will rise up in the next season's meta since the balance changes are hinting towards a beatdown meta, which is where I feel 3m can have somewhat of a purpose.
I could be wrong, I don't use 3m
I would really want to see elixir pump history
Are u a noob
bro what
You've been cranking out videos like crazy lately.
I love these types of videos, thanks Grtaz!
Something to remember is that probably 3m would be more fine if elixir overcharge still existed when their elixir got back to 10, since then you wouldn't leak elixir until you get just to 10.9-11 and the cycle restarts
This is the card I used for all my progression since I started the game 7 years ago. I’m now at 6700 trophy and I finally let this card go. It’s max level and played separately behind the king’s tower allowed me to do two pushes, adding a battle ram with the solo musketeer. It’s always underestimated how much damage a single musketeer does and they always focus on the 2. If well played, the card can be pretty strong !
rage + 3m just melts towers. Add the 3x elxir gamemode (or rage gamemode) and when mirror was still +2 and there is no losing (firecrackers are a problem tho). I won 30 matches in a row one time using a 3m mirror deck. Probably had a pekka in there too or some tank. The double pushes you get from 3m are mwah. Stopped playing once they nerfed mirror back to +1. I love how anti-fun the developers are! God mirror allowed for some crazy powerful and -- most importantly -- FUN decks.
I don't play Clash Royale anymore but I still find your videos entertaining. Good work. I would love to watch a video about Sparky.
I love your Videos! Really Good rechearch, and interessting :)
How about "spirit family" where the card contains all the spirits for like 2-3 elixir?
When u upload it makes my day happy cause I don’t have to re watch all ur other vids ❤
Beause of the story of the 3 musketeers. The developpers were happy with their joke.
Make video about royal recruts
3m is actually pretty good, you just need cards that are low elixir but very defensive like spear goblins to bait then knight so your musketeer/musketeers can get damage in
Fire content as always, Gratz
Bro makes my day everytime he posts. Great vid. Should do the Hunter next
They were better when we had the hidden 11th elixir lmao
IDEA #1. (evolvecardsystem) they could decrease The Three Musketeer price to 6-7 Elixir with huge amount of less damage but with +1-2 elixir cost you could evolve so they would get damage boost and get tankier than before
or
IDEA #2 The Three Musketeers could be three different musketeers! With one being a tank one being a damage and one being a support they could cost 8-10 elixir but not make it overpowered also🙏🏻
hollow knight, octopath, minecraft osts. Like not only are you just pumping out great documentaries, you add so much by just sliding in these great soundtracks. Keep doing your thing, its just right.
I always almost die in the final music. Love your vids
The Three Valkyries goes hard.
Invisible Balloons would be cool.
Maybe a Lead Zeppilin that takes damage by hit count and not damage dealt?
We should have Zoro in here too, which would be a melee wizard.
Extra dmg against hog
I feel like the only reason they exist is because someone at Supercell HQ said something like "Hehe you know that novel, three musketeers? Well what if we make a card that's literally three musketeers!" and then someone didn't understand it was just a joke and actually implemented it in the game
Bro never missed in a video 👏

You should make a video about the most balanced card.
I have a weird idea make them separate make the 3m a new troop so they can be balanced like a 3 of a new troop
The Three dudes and then just make three hunters
The choice of music in this video is just beautiful

Honestly I think it's weird that 3M became a win-con. Strange how 3M work as they do Truly a unique card.
if this guy uses the word "unique" comparetively again i will cry
Man, when that frame with the Reddit posts saying “7 yr ago” came up… it looks yesterday that me and my friends in high school downloaded this game on the launch day and were playing during science class. I still remember that time where i went to the bathroom during class and while walking around the school corridors I unpacked the miner from a free chest and came back in all hyped up saying that to my friends. What a nostalgia trip
why do these feel like cinematic masterpieces
I think making the musketeer 3 Elixier could help Hog 2.6 as it becomes cheaper and better at cycling
Hell no a three elixir musketeer is way too op
“Yes I hate balance” just use dart goblin or firecracker if you want lower elixir. Hog 2.6 is the most annoying deck to play against simply because I see them like 7/10 matches I play
But then it wouldn’t be 2.6 average elixir anymore
