As someone who has played clash of clans religiously since it’s release, played clash royale since it’s release, and have watched xqc since owl days, this did something to my heart I can’t even explain. So beyond happy rn
Cant believe i missed it. I remember quitting bc this game made me rage so much once i was on higher ranks. I also got addicted to it. Feeling strong with this one 💪😭

I remember playing this in 2017 and I loved this game to pieces the same with clash of clans and I had so many amazing memories with these games I dont play it as much I rarely get on but seeing my fav streamer play it makes me feel happy XqcL
Honestly both coc and cr are even better then how they were. Supercell just makes incredible games, you should come back to them to see if you still enjoy them
Bro fr lol. Back when I played a bit years ago I was using giant poison beatdown which was meta. This was back when literally every deck ran elixir pump cuz it was OP af, now hardly any decks run pumps and metas change every other week 😂 Boomer like me cant keep up
low elo is filled with trash players whose gameplay consists of 90% questionable plays, 10% luck, and 0% knowledge of how the game works. You can't judge how good somebody is from low elo gameplay because anyone with a functioning brain can absolutely smoke people who are below legendary arena.
Lol bro same. It "paid off" in the sense I can make/understand the memes and comments chatters are making during the gameplay, but it also HURTS in the sense that HOOOLY using arrows on a single mini pekka or defending against giant with your own giant (???) MMMBROO its hilarious but painful at the same time
Holy shit that's gotta be one of the funniest streams this year, that was fucking perfect, the malding & coping, chat clowning and supporting lil bro, the GIGACHAD TriHard ing, the clan chat emote spam, everything OMEGALUL

And as the juicer warlord heard the infamous "HE HE HE HAW" his mind exploded as his pebbles shrunk from the intense anger. He has released something and it could not be stopped. He swept like he never swept before, nothing remaining of the plastic card as el goblino chewed the last bits after it declined. Finally, he has won. The reward chest has arrived! But at what cost?
The Hog Rider card is unlocked from the Spell Valley (Arena 5). He is a very fast building-targeting, melee troop with moderately high hitpoints and damage. He appears just like his Clash of Clans counterpart; a man with brown eyebrows, a beard, a mohawk, and a golden body piercing in his left ear who is riding a hog. A Hog Rider card costs 4 Elixir to deploy. Strategy His fast move speed can boost forward mini tanks like an Ice Golem in a push. At the same time, he can also function as a tank for lower hitpoint troops such as Goblins as he still has a fair amount of health. Most cheap swarms complement the Hog Rider well, as they are nearly as fast as him and usually force more than one card out of the opponent's hand. The Hog Rider struggles with swarms, as they can damage him down and defeat him quickly while obstructing his path. Barbarians in particular can fully counter him without very strict timing on the defender's part, though be wary of spells. A Hunter can kill the Hog Rider in 2 hits if placed right on top of it. However, if you place something in front of the Hog Rider, the Hunter's splash will damage the Hog Rider and hit the card in front of it more. The Hog Rider in conjunction with the Freeze can surprise the opponent and allow the Hog Rider to deal much more damage than anticipated, especially if the opponent's go-to counter is a swarm, or swarms are their only effective counter to him. Skeletons and Bats will immediately be defeated by the spell, while Spear Goblins, Goblins, and Minions will be at low enough health to be defeated by a follow up Zap or Giant Snowball. However, this strategy isn't very effective against buildings as the Hog Rider will take a while to destroy the building, giving the opponent ample time to articulate another counter. Against non-swarm troops, it can deal a lot of damage during the freeze time, but this can allow the opponent to set up a massive counterpush. For this reason, players should either only go for a Hog Rider + Freeze when they have other units backing it up from a counterattack, or if the match is about to end and they need to deal as much damage as possible. It is not a good idea to send in a Hog Rider simply to destroy a building, especially if it is the only building targeting unit available, as defeating Crown Towers becomes substantially more difficult. Spells or simply waiting out the lifetime of the building are more effective. The exception to this is an Elixir Collector placed in front of the King's Tower. If a Hog Rider placed at the bridge, he can destroy the Collector for a positive Elixir trade, though the damage from both Princess Towers will usually mean he does not survive to deal any damage to them. However, if the opponent sends in defending troops, it can be an opportunity to gain spell damage value. In a deck with several low-cost cards, it might be worth it to simply send the Hog Rider against one building. These decks shuffle their card rotation quick enough, that they will arrive to their next Hog Rider before the next building arrives in the opponent's card rotation. Long-ranged troops like Musketeer and Flying Machine can snipe those buildings, preserving some of the Hog Rider's health, possibly allowing it to get some Tower damage. When there are buildings placed in the middle to counter the Hog Rider, understanding the placement of the Hog Rider and the type of building placed can help the Hog Rider to bypass certain buildings. Passive buildings such as spawners and Elixir Collector have a larger hitbox than defensive buildings; which means that if a passive building was placed 3 tiles away from the river in the middle of the opponent's side, then it is impossible for the Hog Rider to bypass that placement as the Hog Rider will get pulled to that building. Defensive buildings have a smaller hitbox than a passive building, which means if that if a defensive building was placed three tiles away from the river in the middle of the opponent's side, a Hog Rider placed at the very left or right side of the Arena may be able to bypass it due to its smaller hitbox. If the player has a building already placed down in the center of the arena, and the opponent tries to bypass it with a Hog Rider at the edge of the arena, they can use certain air troops to push the Hog Rider towards the building as it jumps over the river, effectively denying the bypass attempt. They must be already hovering over the correct placement, as very quick reflexes are required to correctly perform this technique. For Bats, Skeleton Dragons, and Minion Horde, they should be placed right in front of the Hog Rider as soon as it is deployed. For Minions, Skeleton Barrel, Mega Minion, Flying Machine, Electro Dragon, Baby Dragon, Inferno Dragon, Balloon, and Lava Hound, stagger the above placement one tile to the right if the Hog Rider is placed on the left side of the arena, and vice versa. They can also use ground troops to achieve the same result. Something like an Ice Golem deployed at the Hog Rider’s landing spot will obstruct his path and force him to go around the unit, which causes him to be closer to the building instead of the Crown Tower. The Hog Rider can kite Very Fast non-building targeting troops due to his own Very Fast speed and building only targeting if he is placed on the fourth tile from the bridge, slightly into the opposite lane. He can also stall grounded units when placed right at the bridge. He will pull them towards him while deploying, and then be untargetable by them when he jumps over the bridge. After landing, he will pull them back. This can be useful when the player needs to deal damage in the same lane they are defending. It will also help separate troops behind a tank in a large push. A Tornado placed on the second tile front of the player's King's Tower and staggered two tiles towards the Princess Tower will activate it without any damage dealt to the Princess Tower, helping them in defending future pushes. This can also be a method of mitigating all damage dealt to a Princess Tower, but doing this more than three times may result in the King's Tower's health being low enough to be targeted directly, opening up the possible threat of a back door three crown. A better alternative is to pull the Hog away from the Princess Tower into the attacking range of all three Crown Towers, which will negate all damage as long as none of them are already distracted A very powerful combo is the Hog Rider, the Musketeer, and the Valkyrie, typically referred to as the Trifecta. The Musketeer will defend against most troops, while the Valkyrie can protect her and the Hog Rider from swarms or high damage units. The Hog Rider is used to deal damage to the tower. This can be effectively countered by Lightning, one-shotting the Musketeer and severely damaging both the Valkyrie and Hog Rider. The Minion Horde is also effective, but the enemy can Zap them and the Musketeer will one-shot them all. Even if the Musketeer is defeated, the Hog Rider and Valkyrie will have enough time to severely damage the Tower. The Hog Rider should be placed behind the Valkyrie to give it a boost so that it stays in front of the Hog Rider, protecting it. A Hog Rider combined with a Goblin Barrel can be awkward for the opponent to defend against. Timing it so that the Hog Rider is tanking the tower shots for the Goblins is the most effective way to deal damage. However, a Barbarian Barrel can shut this down with minimal Tower damage for a positive Elixir trade, as long as the Goblin Barrel was placed directly on the Tower. Pairing the Hog Rider with the Balloon can deal devastating damage. If executed properly, the Hog Rider will act as a tank while the Balloon threatens to deal massive damage. The Hog Rider can also destroy any buildings attempting to slow down the combo. However, this combo is very vulnerable to swarms and anti-air cards as neither of the troops target anything but buildings. Additionally, they are easy to separate, due to the disparity in move speeds. Alternatively, the Hog Rider and the Balloon can be played in different lanes to spread the opponent's defenses thin. However, a building or Tornado can bring them back together for an easier defense. The Hog Rider can be paired with the Lumberjack as both a swarm bait and damage combo. It is a very fast combo with an extremely high damage output potential, so the enemy will likely try to counter it with a swarm. If this happens, use a spell like Arrows to render the opponent defenseless. If they manage to defeat the Lumberjack, the dropped Rage will make the Hog Rider even more dangerous than it normally is. A fast and deadly combination is the Hog Rider and Mini P.E.K.K.A. combo. Both units are fast but the Mini P.E.K.K.A. does much more damage and does not attack only buildings so the Mini P.E.K.K.A. can deal with troops like the Executioner and Musketeer. However, this combo can be defeated with swarms like Skeleton Army, which will defeat both of them since neither of them can deal area damage. They are also unable to target air troops, so the Minion Horde can stop this easily. A risky play is to deploy the Hog Rider at the bridge as soon as the match starts. If the opponent does not react fast enough, the Hog Rider will deal a significant amount of damage to the Princess Tower. This can also allow the player to quickly scout the opponent's deck if they happen to react to him fast enough.
@@omaksus3311 i found it really fun and it’s created so many memories for me and i have played it off and on for 6 years but a couple weeks back i stopped playing again, i don’t think it sucks but idm if you do
I played it for like 3 years and then stopped but indeed the game is pay to win but seeing x play it made me realize that the 2017 2018 version of the game was way way more p2w. But anyways if u know how to play most decks the p2w factor is almost irrelevant
@@carlosbenguela9452 kinda disagree because you still have to max the cards that are good and being free to play you can only really max one deck archetype and if that gets nerfed your stuffed the people who can buy all the good cards are better
Let's get into it bro I have one almost maxed account and a second I made to fool around and its somehow higher ladder than my main well start a clan and I can give hella cards always
@@Red_Lake Nah, I feel like it'll take too long to relearn all the tactics. Plus, I'm currently grinding LoL, so I'm not that focused on other games to play.
I can’t say I recommend playing it again. The game is full of people who never stopped playing the game so it’s hard to get into, unless you’re under 3k trophies
The problem with this game is it often feels like the algorithm puts you against players who's deck counters yours so that you can't win no matter what
Tbh nothing counters anything once you get decent. Everything can counter everything when done right, and you always have options when you have a good deck
He needs to learn about human shields and his damage dealers in the back. And that Mini Pekkas are slow. So using his spear goblins, and his Knight can slow it down. You let the towers do most of the damage.
@@glitched_bg3344 Yup. Also guiding Pekkas or melee range troops with a giant. (Putting the giant in the middle of the map as the Pekka or melee are coming up to distract them away as towers shoot.) Also spacing his range troops away from buildings. Or else he gets fire balled.
Calls the game trash and bad then gets addicted saying it’s actually good 💀 I honestly think he’d improve if you just went f2p until a certain arena and then put some money in to get legendaries and more variety in cards

@@theseangle yeah the game went really P2W and down the drain. It used to be you can unlock cards when you reach a certain trophy level now they have cards that you need to be lvl 14... And lvl 13 used to be the Max... Game went to shit
@@froglifes6829 No it's more like "Be a veteran to win", not pay to win. If your acc is 5 years old you'll have all the cards that were unlockable at arena 5 that now are only unlockable at arena 14 for some reason. But idk game seems pretty balanced to me. It's just those few cards that are overused and you just have to have some counters in your deck JUST for them. Or learn specific niche tactics to cheese them somehow like with hog 2.6 you bait the megaknight into your king tower. But these are not very reliable
@@theseangle No its pay 2 win. The progression increase when you pay is insasne. And the game Will match you against p2w players who have all lvl 14 gold cards while you dont. It tried to also push you down a path where you pay.
As a 6.8k Andy, im actually pretty impressed with his gameplay. He definetely has the right ideas about baiting and countering, just the execution is lacking LUL
Yeah i loved when I finally maxed my deck and then they added lvl 14 and all of a sudden I need 800k more gold and lots of cards to get back to where I was
The best way to play this game is knowing how much elixir your opponent has compared to your own. Its possible to.beat ppl with higher tier cards but yes, after a certain point it becomes play 2 win.

been playing this game for 6 years, I never knew how bad everyone was at beginner level
-6 years OMEGALUL
Me too. 6 years Aware
trophy count?
This is actually the average Mega knight player w/o mega knight
@@JL-mf6vy NOT FALSE LULW
This is painfully entertaining 😂
Every time he screams “pay-to-win” or that the game’s broken, I’m just here going “that’s cause you’re reacting, not strategizing” 😔😩
it’s funny tho because the game is pay to win up until everyone is maxed and then it is skill based like even at 6k~ everyone says the same stuff
the game sucks anyways
@@omaksus3311 i found it really fun and it’s created so many memories for me and i have played it off and on for 6 years but a couple weeks back i stopped playing again, i don’t think it sucks but idm if you do
I played it for like 3 years and then stopped but indeed the game is pay to win but seeing x play it made me realize that the 2017 2018 version of the game was way way more p2w. But anyways if u know how to play most decks the p2w factor is almost irrelevant
@@carlosbenguela9452 kinda disagree because you still have to max the cards that are good and being free to play you can only really max one deck archetype and if that gets nerfed your stuffed the people who can buy all the good cards are better
As someone who has been playing this game nearly every day for the 6 years it's been out this was kinda painful to watch lol
jw what deck you running?
Same thing, I’m at 6000 trophies so i feel i got worse after watching this video

20:53 😂😂😂😂😂😂He destroyed the plan in his head before it even began
Bro loses one game and goes pay to win 💀
This makes me wanna play this game again even though I ragequitted the game when it was only a few months old.
Let's get into it bro I have one almost maxed account and a second I made to fool around and its somehow higher ladder than my main well start a clan and I can give hella cards always
@@Red_Lake Nah, I feel like it'll take too long to relearn all the tactics. Plus, I'm currently grinding LoL, so I'm not that focused on other games to play.
@@Drakonus_ you good bro I be grinding elden ring and world war 3 so I see what your sayin
Same
I can’t say I recommend playing it again. The game is full of people who never stopped playing the game so it’s hard to get into, unless you’re under 3k trophies
20:00 everyone clowning on him when the guy had lvl 5 archers that destroyed everything
The problem with this game is it often feels like the algorithm puts you against players who's deck counters yours so that you can't win no matter what
Pepega
Bad deck
that's what people think but it's not actually a thing
i wanna see him push to 5k
all he needs to do is just understand how important placement is and what counters what
Tbh nothing counters anything once you get decent. Everything can counter everything when done right, and you always have options when you have a good deck
DIDNT EVEN TAKE THREE MATCHES TO TAKE OUT THE CREDIT LMFAO
They added xqc. A goblin cage!
It was actually super fun to watch him play a classic
Good to see people trying the game. 10:59 "Wait, settle down. I know what I'm doing" has no clue what he's doing.
man in the beginning i cant watch my eyes hurt man theres a lot to learn but i dont play that game anymore
Damn I really hope this becomes regular content
Bro loses Princess Towers in Tutorial 💀
8:46 FIRE BOMB 💣
47 minutes in and his prince is already a higher level than mine
17:00 The start of his Pay to Win Journey Poggers
As a talented Clash Royale player myself, currently having 1250 trophies, I shall carefully examine his gameplay.
bruh 1250 trophies isn't exactly talented
@You mad? no what's that?
@@Charlie-fz6un iron but with a y
@@darukan ah ok thankyou very much
I need xqc to start yelling doogshittt when he wins 😂
He needs to learn about human shields and his damage dealers in the back.
And that Mini Pekkas are slow. So using his spear goblins, and his Knight can slow it down.
You let the towers do most of the damage.
He also needs to learn about distracting Giant with Building
@@glitched_bg3344
Yup.
Also guiding Pekkas or melee range troops with a giant. (Putting the giant in the middle of the map as the Pekka or melee are coming up to distract them away as towers shoot.)
Also spacing his range troops away from buildings.
Or else he gets fire balled.
"This is dogshit". - proceeds to get addicted.
Calls the game trash and bad then gets addicted saying it’s actually good 💀 I honestly think he’d improve if you just went f2p until a certain arena and then put some money in to get legendaries and more variety in cards
game is pretty ass tho
@@sidedashh arguably top 3 mobile games in the world but ok💀 literally one of the most known mobile companies supercell but ok dragon ball legends clash of clans and clash royale are literally the best mobile games out rn
@@yfgoon47 you just completely forgot opinions exist, it's a pretty dogshit game
@@sidedashh pretty dogshit when it’s known to be one of the best games in the world tho right?? Idk why ur hating on such a good game ur either stuck in midladder, have no friends to play with or ur just straight up bad at the game in general
@@sidedashh Pay to win aspect makes it dog shit. The game would be legendary tier without it.
It finally happened, this was actually amazing content
59:49 this is very fkn satisfying as fk when u encounter annoying opponent and u clutch. It feels like winning a mega jackpot lotto XD
Do you mind if i ask you who is the woman in your pfp?

@@jvkeyy.mbchii Sir you do realize that's someone who looks at and creates loli porn, correct? The person you just replied to
When he goes full panic mode with the music i get CHIIILLZZZ fr tho this is top tier variety content
Yeah shoulda upload this on main, blew up and clash royale is pog af
I can’t wait to see him play in midladder
It hurts to watch, the emotional damage I'm enduring here is really something
I literally got 4 unskippable ads 💀
PogU he finally played Clash Royale
Mans lost once and said “fuck it, bravo six, going bankrupt”
*Texting on phone at max elixir while the enemy spends 20 elixir sending troops on his towers* "GUYS?!?!?!? CHAT!!!! PAY TO WIN CHAT WTF SO PAY TO WIN PAY TO WIN PAY TO WIN PAY TO WIN PAY TO WIN END OF STORY DUD!!!!!"
*Single Juicer brain cell activated*
Hope he stream more mobile games
amongus
True, 100x better than sleeper RP dogshit
is this because of the elixir/inferno tower memes? lol
Seems like he liked the meme so
I remember when the game came out and then the sparky and miner were added...good old times...good old times
And then there is megaknight
Elite barbarians. Elixir golem... Bruhhhh
@@theseangle yeah the game went really P2W and down the drain. It used to be you can unlock cards when you reach a certain trophy level now they have cards that you need to be lvl 14... And lvl 13 used to be the Max... Game went to shit
@@froglifes6829 No it's more like "Be a veteran to win", not pay to win. If your acc is 5 years old you'll have all the cards that were unlockable at arena 5 that now are only unlockable at arena 14 for some reason. But idk game seems pretty balanced to me. It's just those few cards that are overused and you just have to have some counters in your deck JUST for them. Or learn specific niche tactics to cheese them somehow like with hog 2.6 you bait the megaknight into your king tower. But these are not very reliable
@@theseangle No its pay 2 win. The progression increase when you pay is insasne. And the game Will match you against p2w players who have all lvl 14 gold cards while you dont. It tried to also push you down a path where you pay.
As a 6.8k Andy, im actually pretty impressed with his gameplay. He definetely has the right ideas about baiting and countering, just the execution is lacking LUL
? A 5 year old child could play better than him
Take me back 😢
32:44 holy shit i didn't even notice the activate windows watermark... because i myself have it
Card levels is definitely the most time consuming part
Yeah i loved when I finally maxed my deck and then they added lvl 14 and all of a sudden I need 800k more gold and lots of cards to get back to where I was
Bro is using a Mythical card. The "Credit" Card.
59:39 This is insane XD HOW?!
15:15 Eeeemotional damage
As a 7K player, I know this will be painfull to watch.
Man in the thumbnail really does the cr emote 💀
i did not just watch xqc play fucking clash royale for an hour
MAN ONLY LASTED 2 REAL PLAYERS BEFORE HE WANTED TO P2W "GAMING GOLEM" AWARE
i wanna see him play the long dark it would be so funny
his adhd ass would quit 10 minutes in
Dying to the cold oh no no no
wait he never played it before? i thought he did but not sure
@@SyenPie are u female syenpie
@@oh-noe hi are u female
I read muskiteer as Mr Skeeter, and now im giggling on the toilet.
love to see more , grind to the top of the arena do it
For the people that say the game is pay to progress faster not pay to win… 16:11 literally proves pay to progress= pay to win
Low ladder and middlader is pay to win
But challenges and topladder is skill based
I wanna see more cr videos from x
I'm waiting for him to realize that the giant doesn't attack anyone
The best way to play this game is knowing how much elixir your opponent has compared to your own. Its possible to.beat ppl with higher tier cards but yes, after a certain point it becomes play 2 win.
This is amazing lmao, wish I joined the clan but happy to see he’s in our realm
He plays really well for a beginner ...Clueless
X is now very addicted to this game. TrollDespair.
Love how instead of waiting 5 seconds he spends one gem to open early looool
I am already getting visions of x malding Despair
this guy knows how to clash the royale
Ayo upload more of this, hopefully he plays COC more gachiHyper
can't wait until he plays azur lane AYAYA
X :- I don't play shit games like you guys...
Few weeks later :- Totally addicted
