@@blackmanta66I've managed to get my deck with 2 epics to level 14 before getting my hog to level 13, it's absurd how scarce rare books and wildcards are.
This video has inspired me to play after about two years of not playing. A video for returning players who are experienced but not so up to date anymore would be cool but I’m not sure how many people are like me and would like that kind of video.
The only problem with that is you would have to keep making them as the years go by, but I'm with you on that because i have been on and off for 6 years
I've always had a lot of fun building decks, and I've built my fair share of good decks that brought me to champion and also troll decks like lavahound graveyard that I ended up playing because I was bored and wanted to just mess around and have fun, looking back at it and watching this video has really helped me realise that I actually end up doing a lot of the things that you mentioned and I think it's really helpful that a top player would explain some of the more in depth parts of deck building :)
I made my 4.6 golem beatdown deck about 8 years ago, i still log on sometimes to crush midladder noobs with it. It's crazy how it still works in 2024 It's golem, skarmy, lightning, elixir pump, megaminion, baby drag, infernodrag, dart goblin.
I find it interesting that you put hog cycle as aggressive. I remember when the archetype was new, the creator was telling people to play more defensive and use your hog with the counter push. And I’ve definitely found great success playing it that way as well.
in most matchups, you will be able to defend even down 4 elixir and force out a response so its much more worth it to use your hog immediately until you see your opponent has something that you should watch out for.
I’ve always played with this deck that I tweak around from time to time. Evo Mortar, Knight (don’t have double evo yet), Magic Archer, Guards, Mini Pekka, Dart Goblin, Log and Snowball. I’m not the best player in the world, but I have a lot of success against some decks that everyone plays like Hog 2.6, Log Bait, and Lumberloon. I always feel like I could’ve done better rather than “this deck hard counters me too hard,” and that’s what makes it fun for me.
I made myself a own deck, that worked rly well and i got to ultimate champion with it. To be fair i got that far thx to it senergizing rly well with dagger dutchess. It was at the time when she was meta, but i was able to defeat almost every type of deck. Got to ultimate champion with 85% wr. That was my best performance i ever had in a season. Getting ultimate champion for 1st time, with my own deck, and with a high winrate
@@tristonphillips3877 for some reason i dont see the comments i have sent, and i dont know if you see them. So i will type out the deck just in case. Its evo mortar, evo knight, phoenix, miner, poison, archer queen, log, electro spirit

I only ever run Miner chip decks. My most recent creation is as follows: Evo Cage, Evo Tesla, Miner, Poison, The Log, Bats, Ice Spirit, and Princess. A defensive menace (in progress) that I've found success with at 9k trophies. Evo Cannon could be cool to try once it releases, but I don't like wasting my money on this game.
For a long time, I was not finding success with alot of really offensive decks like goblin giant before watching this video and then realising I really like playing more passively and defending really well with cheaper cards so I changed to a miner mortar deck and have been seeing more success thanks to it complementing my strengths as a player
I started playing Clash Royals three months ago I finally reached 6000 trophies yesterday. That being said this video is super helpful I wish it was made before I started playing. Lol
Also if anyone is wondering my deck is Dart Goblin Ballon Bats Hunter Barb Barrel Miner Mega knight or Knight depending on what you prefer a cheaper deck or Heavier deck I’ve been using mega knight as o late because it has become leveled higher than my knight cause of the new season
My deck is Valk, mini pekka, evo goblin barrel, prince, musketeer, barb barrel, goblin gang. I feel like I can counter a lot of different decks with this masterpiece
1. 3 Musketeers 2. Royal Recruits 3. Elixir Pump 4. Archers 5. Goblins 6. Valkarie 7. Arrows 8. Royal Hogs This beatdown split-lane deck is really fun to play. Simply spam pumps and defend everything with Valkarie, Archers and Goblins, then at 1:00, split 3M in the back, play the Recruits infront of those, and the opponent better pray they have Executioner or Bowler, or that's a free 3-crown
Im also using a split lane deck! Except my deck is: Evo Recruits Evo archers Royal hogs Skeleton dragons Cannon Ice spirit Arrows (formerly log) Void (formerly fireball) Its less focused on building one singular giant push during double elixer and and more on counter pushing, getting continuous chip damage and controlling the center with spells/evo archers. But I'll definitely give your deck a shot it sounds fun!
Here’s my f2p deck- level 14 Evo wall breakers, level 15 mega knight (soon to be evo instead of wall breakers), level 15 prince, level 12 valk, level 12 inferno tower, and level 14 fireball and arrows.
This tip might sound crazy, but don’t worry about the meta too much when making a concept. I recently came back from a good 3-4 month break, and I completely forgot meta, so I just chose cards I like and swapped some in and out when I relearned the meta. I have always been avid about making your own decks, and I took a break 3-4 months ago when I couldn’t think of new deck ideas. I came back and made 3-4 new decks that work significantly well. I have an 70% win rate in path of legends high masters and champions with a 3m deck (I never played 3m before I came back). Just ignore meta and once you have the concept, adjust it to counter the meta.
My first selv made deck (which i adapted over time when unlocking new arenas and new cards) was a deck with 2 cheap spells and 5 defensive 4 to 5 elexir troop cards and a cheap 1 to 2 elexir card like goblins or spear goblins. My strategy was always to defend the enemy push and then let my cards that survived the wave of enemy troops deal some damage on the enemy tower and if my survivor cards didn't had 1 pixel HP i added a lumberjack or valkyrie in front of the witch or magic archer to make a little and cheap counter attack. I also used spear goblins for some little tower damage when my elexir was almost 10 and the opponent didn't placed anything yet.
I was a free to play and speedran to 5000 crowns just by using giant and valk goblin spam, and now I'm from the consequences of my tomfoolery. Appreciate the video G
6:05 absolutely true, but especially with evo it’s one of the best defence cards for tanks, hogs etc, plus it allows you to build up behind it on an offensive after defending
I am a hog eq main, but I found that I really liked the aggressive nature of cards such as the Pekka, and it always felt satisfying to land a good hit on the opponent’s tower with it. So I started playing Pekka bridgespam, but too often I find that I would be too worried about defending the opponent’s counter push to go in aggressively like the deck is meant to be played. So I took my cycle knowledge as well as my liking for the Pekka and made a Pekka control deck. It’s a mix of bridgespam, cycle, and control, and it’s honestly very fun if you like control decks. I use the Pekka, ram rider (or evo battle ram), royal ghost, ice wizard, goblins, electro spirit, tornado, and zap. Optimally, it would be played with both the evo zap and evo Pekka, but I don’t have the evo Pekka. Still a very fun deck for me.
My current deck is goblin giant,guards,musketeer,mega knight,archers,tesla,arrows,valkerie Ive used this deck from 3400 to 4200 and when i did try it out i liked it alot and i still use it as im about to get goblin giant evolution then probably work on getting mega knoght evo
i play mortar siege every single season, and just build a new deck around mortar depending on what card are good or bad every season, or just keep the old deck, if it is still viable
This is an amazing guide, even though i already did it, my deck is more of a defensive deck, until i cycle to evo knight, after that i play battle ram and electro spirit + knight, it's extremely hard to counter and works extremely well in lower arenas where people spam pekka or mk, as they won't have elixir to defend
Naw I've used my own home brew since the game launched (added and removed here and there, no care for the meta). Sat just under 8k, rocking royal giant
When you said beatdown was braindead but I kinda disagree I run golem beatdown I play passive and defence untill double elixir then I play aggressive to what aractype would you say that belongs to
i haven’t changed my deck since 2017 and sometimes i log on to see if it still works lol. it’s not meta at all but it’s the only thing i upgraded when i was a teenager
Definitely a defensive player. I tend to lean towards hog rider control. I set up cards while defending, and when I have them heading forward, and send in a hog rider in front or behind a valkyrie.
I found out that for my deck Arrows work way better than a large spell, and now i have log plus arrows. Its just so good against logbait and firecracker players
My deck is Tesla with evolution, firecracker, log, mini pekka, witch, rage, inferno dragon, and golem, I’ve had general success but I can tell I’m hitting a barrier I can’t tell if it’s level wise or it’s the deck itself. From what I can tell I’m in the dumpster for a deck lol.
Once I unlocked the mortar I found my play style. Siege. I need to work on my patience, and Clash seige decks helps me with that. Once I started to use the mortar I climed to 5K trophies. I'm not winning all that much, but I find it still fun to play, just to see how long I can stall my loss.
I am a defensive player. I rarely play for trophies but I usually don't have a card that attacks only buildings and somehow I manage to win by creating counter pushes. Usually because I change deck every season, I get bored playing the same
3 of my best decks are: 1) Lumberjack, balloon, freeze, goblin gang, dart goblin, evolved firecracker, bowler and prince 2) Knight, musketeer, goblin demolisher, graveyard, evolved morter, skeleton, arrows and snowball 3) Mega knight, miner, dart goblin, bats, zap, evolved wall breakers, magic archer and prince Suggest me any changes if you think are needed 🤧
I recently swapped out Princess as an off-wincon for a miner in my deck. Immediately started doing better with him than Princess chipping and spell cycling
I’m definitely not the target demographic for this video but I appreciate him glazing the passive play style. I basically play 3.0 xbow but with mighty miner for knight and goblins for skeletons (my evos are tesla and archers)
I have a 3.5 (Witch,Dark Prince,Hog Rider,Valkery,Ice Wizard,Zap with EVO,Freeze and Bomber but i want to add the Skeleton king in the deck).Do you think it's a stupid deck? Plz respond
you mentioning the braindead playstyle reminds me of how i was playing megaknigt E-barb freeze in 2021 and i am now pround to be playing controll decks
I made my double prince GG deck about 3 years ago as a way to counter the insanity that was phonk + e golem, and the main 4 (both princes, goblin giant, and Bomb tower) have stayed consistently in the deck, with the 2nd half changing with the meta (like right now I have guards to deal with beatdown, especially as I use dutchess over princess) That main 4 might be changing, as with the growth of beatdown and hog cycle with evo musketeer + Evo cannon, I plan on switching to tesla once I get it to level 14. And Tesla has always been on the radar as my only real anti air has been e wiz (and LP when he was meta), with goblin giant as a secondary to setup a counterpush, effectively going only to 1.5/2 in the "anti air" category.
My fav deck that i made myself is evo skeletons + bats, giant skeleton, flying machine, hog, ice spirit, rage and arrows. Despite having basically no amazing matchups, it has a great outplay potential (except vs 2.6 and some piggies decks) and i'm consistently getting 1800+ medals in uc with it
You can kinda build it in two ways. Either a Balloon Cycle deck which is kinda similar to 2.6 but still different or a Balloon Freeze deck which is very heavy. It obviously depends on which playstyle you like more.
I'm at 2726 trophies rn (took a HUGE break) and I used the following deck for the vast majority of my games. Wall breakers (evolved nowadays) Goblins Bomber Spear Goblins Archers Mega Minion Goblin Barrel Zap Quick and efficient (yeah yeah spirits yeah yeah) cycling/spam deck that ramps tf up at the 2x mark. I'm pretty flexible with my playstyle, as is evident with my next deck that I currently play and am having loads of fun with. Wallbreakers (evolved) Fire Spirit Witch Arrows Goblins Mega Minion Knight Lightning Spirit Mostly used for counter pushing. I use the minion and the knight to serve as tanks for the witch while she summons skellies for support and deals splash damage. Gobbos are huge for countering mini pekkas, slowing normal pekks, countering hog riders, etc.. Arrows are... arrows. Fire spirit is good for damage against distracted units or as a throwaway to stop princes and other units from using their charge attacks, and lightning spirit CLEARS big stuff like skeletal army and is able to stun units that rely on charged attacks. It also, ofc, gets a little damage in heh.
Here’s my custom deck: Hog rider, ice golem, musketeer, skeletons, ice spirit, cannon, log, and fireball. Let me know if you guys would make any changes
I made a deck that got me to 5000 trophies eventually . ( a long time ago) megaknight goblin barrel arrows or log fireball electrowizard infernotower and firecracker and skarmy (later guards)
My current favourite deck is electro giant sparky. The theme was All splash damage, except for 1 card Weakness=prince, single target damage guys. I counter with sparky when I’m up against these guys. I guess I’m a beat down player. I like high value guys who do a lot of work for me.
Ive been using my 3.1 tesla hog cycle for a good few years now and it is very spammy and actually pretty defensive if you place your cards right. If anyone wants to know, it is Knight, Archers, Tesla, Fireball, Hog Rider, Log, Ice Spirit, Mini PEKKA (I'd definitely go for evo knight for tanking purposes, evo tesla if you want a more defensive deck or evo archers if you want a more offensive deck)
My deck is: cannoneer, hog rider, evo mortar, evo musketeer, log, arrows, guards, mini pekka and tesla. Idk if I shuld switch to princess tower or not, sometimes I struggle against swarm decks and sometimes against decks full of mini tanks
I love hog2.6 its the deck that got me out of arena 12 hardest arena for me but that was 2 years ago now am in arena 18 with the same deck I will give my full thanks to this amazing deck
I dont know if i am a beatdown player, i prefer to use a strategy called "pekka + support at the back when 2x elixir and crush the 4.100 cups player knowing that in the next match i will lose against some random 4.5, no spell deck" 😃👍
I run a evo pekka, evo mk, hog rider, magic archer, knight, dart goblin, ice wizard and arrows. Me personally I just really like pekka and mk as characters and cards, these huge beefy units that can soak up dmg and deal it back so I built a deck around them that defenda extremely well with them because they can be used as an amazing defense or a very deadly offense and I've had a ton of success with it
Thanks to this vid i cooked up a really nice mortar deck and if youre wandering it counters thebraindead midladder b******* that most of you have to deal with Evo mortar, evo firecracker, skeleton, ice wizard, knight, poison, arrows, ice spirit
I made my own deci in 2017 when I got the electro wizard a week after it's launch. Now I'm at 8000 trophies and I don't play ladder. Evo zap, tornado, fireball, inferno tower, executioner, electro wizard, Minions and hogrider.
I’m not sick of my current deck. Been using it for almost a year and still loving it. Evo wizard, giant skeleton, log, arrows, mini pekka, golem, executioner, lightning I used to use witch instead of executioner, but evo pekka has made her a bad option. 😭
Psalms 18:2 and Psalms 73:26: "The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer; my God is my strength, in whom I trust. Though my flesh and my heart may fail, God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever."!!
My current deck is witch, mega Knight, evo zap (for now), bandit, firecracker, bats, goblin gang, and skeleton king. I used to have the miner in there, but he's so weak right now. I use mega Knight like a tank, but also like a big spell. I use witch, goblin gang, and bats for air defense and dps. I have the bandit and the skeleton king are serving as my wincons. I'm also ftp and I'm considering Evo mega Knight when I finish unlocking him, but I appreciate that every third zap is a super powered multi strike version that kills so much stuff and holds the area for what feels like forever. Advice appreciated
You should still use miner. Yes he's weaker than he used to be but as someone who played the mk bait archetype for a while, this card is winning a ton of games. I would never switch it out in this deck, even in a rather bad meta for it. Skeleton King and bandit aren't win conditions but miner can also fill that role. If that's something you want to consider, remove the firecracker. She's bad with miner because of the king tower activation which you means you need to decide for one of them.
@@PokemonTCGPocket_Enjoyer excellent catch with the firecracker being the card that replaced the miner. I certainly believed in the miner for a long time, it's just been much harder to use him lately. I didn't know that I was using a bait deck lol, but yeah I guess I was... And now I'm missing that
I made my deck randomly by jumbling up a bunch of cheap cards together along with a win condition. The deck is "Knight evo, Golden knight, Dart gob, gob gang, gobs, poison, tombstone, and skeleton barrel." So far, the deck has been doing well against people in 6k+ areans, except the all level 14 people.
at 6k trophies, has this deck for ~3 months and am at 6k trophies EVO Goblin Giant (level 14) EVO Wizard (once i get the second slot) (level 14) Prince (level 13) Mini P.E.K.K.A. (level 14) Skeleton Army (level 14) Barbarians (level 14) Arrows (level 14) Fireball (level 12) came up with it myself and it works really well
There needs to be some kind of categorization for decks that just like to control the center of the arena or play a lot of their cards in the front center of your side of the arena (for example, you see this happen with flying machines, musketeers, cannon carts, etc. These decks tend to have a more supportive win con like mortar or xbow or maybe even bush) now that i thing about it, seige decks are a center control decks
I play a bit of hybrid when overtime starts I am an aggressive players typically able to overwhelm opponents through my evos but for most of the game I play as a counter attacker let them strike defend and then attack with what survives
Really big problem I have with building new decks is that with how overleveled people are cus they spend money, the more I use magic items so I can actually progress so when I want to change something then I don't really have the levels to do so.
Its very hard to create your "own" deck since you need to make sure that it is consistent for your playstyle and you just need know what card makes the thing synergized throughout the game. Meta decks are just fast progressing make things pretty easy and no skill, which makes the whole game boring.
I run Golem, Barbs, Mini Pekka, Evo Archers, Musketeer, Minions, Princess, and Zap. I’ve played this deck basically since the beginning (I used to use Wizard before I unlocked and leveled Princess). It does well for me. I might have to swap my zap for arrows though to deal with firecracker which everyone runs and can escape my support with its recoil.
@@braydenp7682 it didn’t used to be a huge issue, but you’re right. I get around it sometimes by spacing out my support or playing just one with musketeer until they use arrows. Once firecracker got popular, arrows became a must.
Love how i should choose a playstyle but i have good success and like 4 different archtypes: Gob Giant, 3M pump, graveyard and (oh, good old times) rocket cycle
I've never look up or used a deck from anybody else. I've spent the whole game learning what works for my playstyle. Rn I'm using knight, megaknight evo, cannon cart, elixir golem, fireball, wizard, minion horde, and witch

I've found, as a f2p, that epics are actually generally easier to upgrade and less useful than rares. Just some food for thought.
So true, I have such little use for epic wild cards that it's crazy and yet I have so few rares

So I took my cycle knowledge as well as my liking for the Pekka and made a Pekka control deck. It’s a mix of bridgespam, cycle, and control, and it’s honestly very fun if you like control decks. I use the Pekka, ram rider (or evo battle ram), royal ghost, ice wizard, goblins, electro spirit, tornado, and zap. Optimally, it would be played with both the evo zap and evo Pekka, but I don’t have the evo Pekka. Still a very fun deck for me.
seems kinda weak to air, your only defenses are ice wiz tornado and zap
play drill its like both
source: i said so
On the f2p section I have 2 epics both at level 14 what should I do with wild cards and books for epic now should I swap goblins for guards maybe?
My deck has never failed I’ve had it for years
My current deck is goblin giant,guards,musketeer,mega knight,archers,tesla,arrows,valkerie
Ive used this deck from 3400 to 4200 and when i did try it out i liked it alot and i still use it as im about to get goblin giant evolution then probably work on getting mega knoght evo
W vid
W name Amen 🙏
i play mortar siege every single season, and just build a new deck around mortar depending on what card are good or bad every season, or just keep the old deck, if it is still viable
This is an amazing guide, even though i already did it, my deck is more of a defensive deck, until i cycle to evo knight, after that i play battle ram and electro spirit + knight, it's extremely hard to counter and works extremely well in lower arenas where people spam pekka or mk, as they won't have elixir to defend
Very useful even though i use an already made deck
Naw I've used my own home brew since the game launched (added and removed here and there, no care for the meta). Sat just under 8k, rocking royal giant
When you said beatdown was braindead but I kinda disagree I run golem beatdown I play passive and defence untill double elixir then I play aggressive to what aractype would you say that belongs to
i haven’t changed my deck since 2017 and sometimes i log on to see if it still works lol. it’s not meta at all but it’s the only thing i upgraded when i was a teenager
Definitely a defensive player. I tend to lean towards hog rider control. I set up cards while defending, and when I have them heading forward, and send in a hog rider in front or behind a valkyrie.
I found out that for my deck Arrows work way better than a large spell, and now i have log plus arrows. Its just so good against logbait and firecracker players
My deck is Tesla with evolution, firecracker, log, mini pekka, witch, rage, inferno dragon, and golem, I’ve had general success but I can tell I’m hitting a barrier I can’t tell if it’s level wise or it’s the deck itself. From what I can tell I’m in the dumpster for a deck lol.
Once I unlocked the mortar I found my play style. Siege. I need to work on my patience, and Clash seige decks helps me with that. Once I started to use the mortar I climed to 5K trophies. I'm not winning all that much, but I find it still fun to play, just to see how long I can stall my loss.
I am a defensive player. I rarely play for trophies but I usually don't have a card that attacks only buildings and somehow I manage to win by creating counter pushes. Usually because I change deck every season, I get bored playing the same
3 of my best decks are:
1) Lumberjack, balloon, freeze, goblin gang, dart goblin, evolved firecracker, bowler and prince
2) Knight, musketeer, goblin demolisher, graveyard, evolved morter, skeleton, arrows and snowball
3) Mega knight, miner, dart goblin, bats, zap, evolved wall breakers, magic archer and prince
Suggest me any changes if you think are needed 🤧
Remove mega knight
@@BigCats-o8u and replace it with?
@@parikhvedant7051I'd suggest poison, bc u have no spells. It goes well with Minor, also. 😊
@@MatthewPatrick1989 I prefer freeze instead of poison because I can use freeze to stop many stuff and kill small swarm troops
@@parikhvedant7051freeze and miner do not synergize well together
I recently swapped out Princess as an off-wincon for a miner in my deck. Immediately started doing better with him than Princess chipping and spell cycling
It’s Evo MK, dark prince, musketeer, ice spirit, bats, miner, log and fireball.
Thats why i use hog rider because it versatile and will probably never get nerfed not 2.6 but a slight modification to a meta deck in the past
I’m definitely not the target demographic for this video but I appreciate him glazing the passive play style. I basically play 3.0 xbow but with mighty miner for knight and goblins for skeletons (my evos are tesla and archers)
When you named the archetypes I was trying to figure out if my deck was bait, bridge spam or cycle. Think I figured out I’m aggressive lol
I have a 3.5 (Witch,Dark Prince,Hog Rider,Valkery,Ice Wizard,Zap with EVO,Freeze and Bomber but i want to add the Skeleton king in the deck).Do you think it's a stupid deck? Plz respond
you mentioning the braindead playstyle reminds me of how i was playing megaknigt E-barb freeze in 2021 and i am now pround to be playing controll decks
I made my double prince GG deck about 3 years ago as a way to counter the insanity that was phonk + e golem, and the main 4 (both princes, goblin giant, and Bomb tower) have stayed consistently in the deck, with the 2nd half changing with the meta (like right now I have guards to deal with beatdown, especially as I use dutchess over princess)
That main 4 might be changing, as with the growth of beatdown and hog cycle with evo musketeer + Evo cannon, I plan on switching to tesla once I get it to level 14. And Tesla has always been on the radar as my only real anti air has been e wiz (and LP when he was meta), with goblin giant as a secondary to setup a counterpush, effectively going only to 1.5/2 in the "anti air" category.
My fav deck that i made myself is evo skeletons + bats, giant skeleton, flying machine, hog, ice spirit, rage and arrows. Despite having basically no amazing matchups, it has a great outplay potential (except vs 2.6 and some piggies decks) and i'm consistently getting 1800+ medals in uc with it
Can you guys help me make a balloon deck like idk what cards go good with it( Ik it’s a control type card)
You can kinda build it in two ways. Either a Balloon Cycle deck which is kinda similar to 2.6 but still different or a Balloon Freeze deck which is very heavy. It obviously depends on which playstyle you like more.
I'm at 2726 trophies rn (took a HUGE break) and I used the following deck for the vast majority of my games.
Wall breakers (evolved nowadays)
Goblins
Bomber
Spear Goblins
Archers
Mega Minion
Goblin Barrel
Zap
Quick and efficient (yeah yeah spirits yeah yeah) cycling/spam deck that ramps tf up at the 2x mark. I'm pretty flexible with my playstyle, as is evident with my next deck that I currently play and am having loads of fun with.
Wallbreakers (evolved)
Fire Spirit
Witch
Arrows
Goblins
Mega Minion
Knight
Lightning Spirit
Mostly used for counter pushing. I use the minion and the knight to serve as tanks for the witch while she summons skellies for support and deals splash damage. Gobbos are huge for countering mini pekkas, slowing normal pekks, countering hog riders, etc.. Arrows are... arrows. Fire spirit is good for damage against distracted units or as a throwaway to stop princes and other units from using their charge attacks, and lightning spirit CLEARS big stuff like skeletal army and is able to stun units that rely on charged attacks. It also, ofc, gets a little damage in heh.
Here’s my custom deck: Hog rider, ice golem, musketeer, skeletons, ice spirit, cannon, log, and fireball. Let me know if you guys would make any changes
Thats hog 2.6 dumbass
This is a joke right?
I'm pretty sure that's just 2.6 hog cycle
@@jamesmcdonald3078 huh? this is a custom deck I made when I was younger
I have ice golem, hog, electro wizard, canon, firecracker, barbarian barrel, clone, and bowler
🔥 vid and great advice
Thank you 🙏. When I got the second slot I was shocked surprised happy I was not expecting it that’s why
I’m only good with beatdown but I only have fun with cycle and bait. I just need to know which one to pick
I made a deck that got me to 5000 trophies eventually . ( a long time ago) megaknight goblin barrel arrows or log fireball electrowizard infernotower and firecracker and skarmy (later guards)
But my fqvorite deck of all time is definetly splashyard with skeleton king and tombstone with phoenix
Maga night,witch, mini pekka, arrows,Bats,evo firecracker,electro spirit,hog Rider. So good to play with this duck❤☠️🥳
My current favourite deck is electro giant sparky.
The theme was All splash damage, except for 1 card
Weakness=prince, single target damage guys. I counter with sparky when I’m up against these guys.
I guess I’m a beat down player. I like high value guys who do a lot of work for me.
Ive been using my 3.1 tesla hog cycle for a good few years now and it is very spammy and actually pretty defensive if you place your cards right.
If anyone wants to know, it is Knight, Archers, Tesla, Fireball, Hog Rider, Log, Ice Spirit, Mini PEKKA
(I'd definitely go for evo knight for tanking purposes, evo tesla if you want a more defensive deck or evo archers if you want a more offensive deck)
Pick the ones that look cool and make it work. For the past 4 years I've played this game on and off, its been the same deck.
I just spam randomize to make a deck because I got bored making decks
My deck is: cannoneer, hog rider, evo mortar, evo musketeer, log, arrows, guards, mini pekka and tesla. Idk if I shuld switch to princess tower or not, sometimes I struggle against swarm decks and sometimes against decks full of mini tanks
I am hardstuck in arena 17 pls do guide me desperate🙏
One of the creations I'm proudest of:
Evo Wizard
Evo Tesla
Lumberjack
Balloon
Monk
Goblins
Minions
Void (Arrows can be used as well)
Princess Tower
Rare footage of Billybob not actually being insomniac.
After watching this video im ready to make my all skeleton deck
I love hog2.6 its the deck that got me out of arena 12 hardest arena for me but that was 2 years ago now am in arena 18 with the same deck I will give my full thanks to this amazing deck
I dont know if i am a beatdown player, i prefer to use a strategy called "pekka + support at the back when 2x elixir and crush the 4.100 cups player knowing that in the next match i will lose against some random 4.5, no spell deck" 😃👍
do you consider lumberloon beatdown or in other archetype?
I run a evo pekka, evo mk, hog rider, magic archer, knight, dart goblin, ice wizard and arrows. Me personally I just really like pekka and mk as characters and cards, these huge beefy units that can soak up dmg and deal it back so I built a deck around them that defenda extremely well with them because they can be used as an amazing defense or a very deadly offense and I've had a ton of success with it
Thanks to this vid i cooked up a really nice mortar deck and if youre wandering it counters thebraindead midladder b******* that most of you have to deal with
Evo mortar, evo firecracker, skeleton, ice wizard, knight, poison, arrows, ice spirit
Keep in mind its a siege cycle deck so you beatdown braindead idiots wont be winning
I made my own deci in 2017 when I got the electro wizard a week after it's launch. Now I'm at 8000 trophies and I don't play ladder.
Evo zap, tornado, fireball, inferno tower, executioner, electro wizard, Minions and hogrider.
I’m not sick of my current deck. Been using it for almost a year and still loving it.
Evo wizard, giant skeleton, log, arrows, mini pekka, golem, executioner, lightning
I used to use witch instead of executioner, but evo pekka has made her a bad option. 😭
Psalms 18:2 and Psalms 73:26:
"The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer; my God is my strength, in whom I trust. Though my flesh and my heart may fail, God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever."!!
My current deck is witch, mega Knight, evo zap (for now), bandit, firecracker, bats, goblin gang, and skeleton king. I used to have the miner in there, but he's so weak right now. I use mega Knight like a tank, but also like a big spell. I use witch, goblin gang, and bats for air defense and dps. I have the bandit and the skeleton king are serving as my wincons. I'm also ftp and I'm considering Evo mega Knight when I finish unlocking him, but I appreciate that every third zap is a super powered multi strike version that kills so much stuff and holds the area for what feels like forever. Advice appreciated
You should still use miner. Yes he's weaker than he used to be but as someone who played the mk bait archetype for a while, this card is winning a ton of games. I would never switch it out in this deck, even in a rather bad meta for it. Skeleton King and bandit aren't win conditions but miner can also fill that role.
If that's something you want to consider, remove the firecracker. She's bad with miner because of the king tower activation which you means you need to decide for one of them.
@@PokemonTCGPocket_Enjoyer excellent catch with the firecracker being the card that replaced the miner. I certainly believed in the miner for a long time, it's just been much harder to use him lately. I didn't know that I was using a bait deck lol, but yeah I guess I was... And now I'm missing that
I use Monk, goblin giant, evo firecracker, evo skelletons, tesla, ice spirit, log and tornado. Made it a while back and been using it since
Rockin the kubota sweatshirt💪🏽💪🏽
Yes sir🫡
Rocket is also a wincon cause of the rocket control deck
I made my deck randomly by jumbling up a bunch of cheap cards together along with a win condition.
The deck is "Knight evo, Golden knight, Dart gob, gob gang, gobs, poison, tombstone, and skeleton barrel." So far, the deck has been doing well against people in 6k+ areans, except the all level 14 people.
As someone whose been using the same deck I made 5 years ago, I approve of this message.
Prince is my win condition
Prince is not a win condition. Don’t stress me out😂
@@fulltiltgaming it's my win condition
@@Z1ngy75good on you, beat the man
@@Z1ngy75let's go Z1ngy, redefine the meta my friend

Ty u I just found my favorite deck now
at 6k trophies, has this deck for ~3 months and am at 6k trophies
EVO Goblin Giant (level 14)
EVO Wizard (once i get the second slot) (level 14)
Prince (level 13)
Mini P.E.K.K.A. (level 14)
Skeleton Army (level 14)
Barbarians (level 14)
Arrows (level 14)
Fireball (level 12)
came up with it myself and it works really well
Thank you soooo much with this method i gained 1k trophies and gaining trophies nonstop rn. Rn i am 8k
There needs to be some kind of categorization for decks that just like to control the center of the arena or play a lot of their cards in the front center of your side of the arena (for example, you see this happen with flying machines, musketeers, cannon carts, etc. These decks tend to have a more supportive win con like mortar or xbow or maybe even bush)
now that i thing about it, seige decks are a center control decks
What does evo knight do?
Ive been playing this deck since forvever and im still getting success
Double Prince, Executioner, Hog Rider, Guards, Skeletons, Evo Tesla and Arrows
I play a bit of hybrid when overtime starts I am an aggressive players typically able to overwhelm opponents through my evos but for most of the game I play as a counter attacker let them strike defend and then attack with what survives
Ive been using my GiWitch deck ever since the ice wiz was introduced.
Giant, Witch, Hog, guards, zap, fireball, minions, ice wiz.
Really big problem I have with building new decks is that with how overleveled people are cus they spend money, the more I use magic items so I can actually progress so when I want to change something then I don't really have the levels to do so.
Is the goblin giant good right now 😅since I play goblin giant sparky
Its very hard to create your "own" deck since you need to make sure that it is consistent for your playstyle and you just need know what card makes the thing synergized throughout the game.
Meta decks are just fast progressing make things pretty easy and no skill, which makes the whole game boring.
Literally a big problem with deck building is an inability to identify it’s weaknesses and then add counterplay cards
I run Golem, Barbs, Mini Pekka, Evo Archers, Musketeer, Minions, Princess, and Zap. I’ve played this deck basically since the beginning (I used to use Wizard before I unlocked and leveled Princess). It does well for me. I might have to swap my zap for arrows though to deal with firecracker which everyone runs and can escape my support with its recoil.
A mini tank would help you. Arrows chunks or kills all your support cards making it harder to build a golem push
@@braydenp7682 it didn’t used to be a huge issue, but you’re right. I get around it sometimes by spacing out my support or playing just one with musketeer until they use arrows. Once firecracker got popular, arrows became a must.
you helped me I wa stuck on arena 5 BECAUSE OF ONE CHALLENGE THAT GIVED LV 11 MK AND LV 9 PEKKA
LOL u r Goddamn right some players are lvl 7-8 and have lvl 11 mk completely braindead
Finally!! A video to give me tips on what to pair with my 3 musketeers ... 6:59 💀
Love how i should choose a playstyle but i have good success and like 4 different archtypes: Gob Giant, 3M pump, graveyard and (oh, good old times) rocket cycle
I've never look up or used a deck from anybody else. I've spent the whole game learning what works for my playstyle. Rn I'm using knight, megaknight evo, cannon cart, elixir golem, fireball, wizard, minion horde, and witch
Hi mate is there a chance you can look at the cards I have and help me improve my deck 👍🏼
