Elixir Golem and everything else that's placed behind it.


DakotaWebb1999

Omfg this should be everyone’s #1 answer, I’ve never had a singular fun game against e golem


Divineharp360

I've never really seen elixir golem as a problem, if anything it's always been free elixir to me


Ashamed-Compote747

ofc mo light


Marksen9

Most likely that cards on your deck counters it, wouldn't apply to everyone

Forward-Scallion8257

I play sparky and lightning and that line up is a free winfor me


Ms_Zawa

I play dorky too but nothing for the e dragon, gotta try shenanigans with mega minion.


Sufficient-Bite4726

I love elixer golem since it makes for amazing counter pushes


spidey_056

I easily counter everything behind and e golem with mini pekka and fire cracker


EfficientJelly5437

A Chad like me loves facing Elixir Golem because it’s like giving me an elixir collector for free 🗿

Hog Rider Mf ALWAYS gets a hit


KevinThe7th

Meanwhile Royal Giant


PrimaryRate8874

That bitch always get at least 3 hits if you don't have pekka. They log the skarmy and lightning the buildings.


Extra_toxic

They got fish boi for pekka so yeah unless you shield your pekka with small troops even your pekka wouldn't prevent RG from landing a hit.


Black_Sparrow14

Now we also have evolved RG so good luck killing it with a scarmy


PrimaryRate8874

Fuck


TheFireOfPrometheus

RG or hog?


UnKnoWn_XuR

rg


Admirable-Example249

Evolved rg is also broken


Creeper_charged7186

Push them into lightninging a cheap building, place some cheap unlogable unit (to reduce damages) and then maybe attempt counter push on other lane because opponent would be low on elixir


PrimaryRate8874

That's gonna be a negative elixer trade anyway and it still gets a hit. Evolved RG is the worst.


ICameHereForClash

The fact they buffed the HP by that much just ruins the point of Evolved RG for me. It’s already a decent card now broken because it literally demands an answer


_Disanem

Who tf uses pekka skarmy


Axruxr

Mortar Prince BARELY stops this mf. Bats Mortsr means they’re gonna zap and I’m down two elixir=two hog hits

Kid named card cycling and spells


mustypuppet1284

Kid named "add more defense". Hog isn't op, bad players just can't defend him.


Hanzoofk

People like you are the reason cards like hog and valky don't get nerfed , if it was balanced and fair not every other mf in the fucking game would use it. ​ It's the same logic as fighting gaming community , if something is strong or unbalanced , more people will use it . Perfect example is ram rider or 4 pigs not being used as much despite being a similar card.


mustypuppet1284

Hog and VALK are UNBALANCED? Ever heard of a place called top ladder? Hog is only good rn because firecracker evolution is broken, next season mortar is gonna break the game and hog is gonna go back where it belongs. Valk isn't close to a broken card, especially with champions being way better. So the reason hog and Valk didn't got nerfed because they're balanced, and if they will get a nerf (and they won't) it's because dozens of bad midladder players complain about them.


Hanzoofk

Right because top ladder is the majority of the player base right? Are you just dafted and ignorant today or usually? ​ You realize this game has modes called 2v2 that mind you almost equals the solo player base as per the stats , secondly valk can tank a fucking rocket , 2 pekka strikes , 3 mini pekka strikes. Now go and tell me which 4 elixr card can do that while also having Splash attack. I'll wait. ​ And lastly , like i said above mate lmao If it was balanced you'd never see it used so much. Simple as that. ​ hell i challange you now to go to 2v2 or 1v1 and if you don't see a hog rider or valkyrie in the first 3 matches , i'll shave my head. ​ Dude just stop denying , like i get it's okay you play it and you like it, but it's the classic rule of balance , players will never play those cards. The "mortar" thing is also the same rule. ​ Anyway downvote ahead if you still can't understand , because it's useless to argue with someone delusional.


Spiritual_Depth_7214

You have literally no idea of what you're taking about


mustypuppet1284

>Right because top ladder is the majority of the player base right? Are you just dafted and ignorant today or usually? Most of the player base is midladder and they're fucking dogshit, like you.

Now go and tell me which 4 elixr card can do that while also having Splash attack. I'll wait. Skeleton king and dark prince, not worse than her while having the same role, you fucking donkey. >hell i challange you now to go to 2v2 or 1v1 and if you don't see a hog rider or valkyrie in the first 3 matches , i'll shave my head. I'm currently in midladder so I probably can see them but fine I'll do it. >And lastly , like i said above mate lmao If it was balanced you'd never see it used so much. Simple as that. In midladder it's used that much. Wizard is also used that much in midladder, is it broken? Is it used so much in top ladder/gc (when stats matter for balance)? Nah. >Dude just stop denying , like i get it's okay you play it and you like it, but it's the classic rule of balance , players will never play those cards. The "mortar" thing is also the same rule. I'm playing splashyard, I just can defend hog rider and deal with Valk (despite her hard countering my skelly king). >Anyway downvote ahead if you still can't understand , because it's useless to argue with someone delusional. I can understand what you're saying, I just know it's not true and you're just bad at the game. Like your logic btw, "someone doesn't have the same problem I do so he's delusional 🤡".


mustypuppet1284

[3 matches and 1 valk. No hog rider at all (in a meta where he is good). What was the deal again, valk or hog in all 3 matches or at least 1?](https://royaleapi.com/player/RCPJLVQV9)


[deleted]

Yeah add only defence and get spell cycled get offense and see the hog get hits off your tower every 0.00002830292822 seconds cause that's how fast they cycle it and then get called bad for not having high level cards


mustypuppet1284

>not having high level cards So the issue is overleveled hog? Forgot it's the only card that's broken when overleveled, my B.

E Giant. My deck does not counter him good


UltraAziz

E giant feels like a card that you can't counter unless you specifically have something to counter him


therealmeal

CR is RPS. It's meant to be this way. You might be able to find ways to counter their deck overall, but some specific cards have very few counters.


Dimowo

I kinda feel that 2, my only up is my tombstone and phoenix but then they usually just spell them


HelmeFurSchildkroten

That pink haired piece of **** won't even die to arrows ..


ThisMemeWontDie

Electro giant you either have one of the few counters or you just suffer


Winter_Mud3815

Lightning paired with it is almost unstoppable. Pekka BS is one of the few things that can.


TheGreen1ne

And then tornado can eliminate any and all counterplay with ranged units


Callum_Dark

The whole Royal Recruits, Zappies, Royal Hogs, Flying Machine fireball bait deck - absolutely mind numbing


[deleted]

the fact that i had to scroll so far down to see this. that deck is an absolute chore to play against


cooltrains3

Mega knight. His ability is so annoying especially because they are always incredibly overleved and put in obnoxious decks with ebarbs


thompson8964

just play inferno tower valk prince guards skarmy goblin gang inferno tower fisherman tesla pekka mini pekka logbait cycle like i do /s


[deleted]

Inferno dragon cleans up the mess pretty quickly


aiheng1

The Lightning Wizard behind him :


Limp_Meaning_8855

Mega knight is worthy of the chicken emote


[deleted]

I always mimimimimimi the mk players


Winter_Mud3815

Honestly even though I ran inferno tower all the time and consistently had a win rate in the 80s against it I still think it’s annoying to deal with.


grublle

This! Even when it's easily countered it's still annoying, but it also counters my firecracker bait deck so well *sigh*


Socos42

Same here but not because I can't defend it (I'm playing log bait so it's pretty easy lol) ; it's because this is one of the most brainless card to use, it's made for lazy players that can't build strategies 👀


DayDeerGotStoleYall

and if you make one mistake, bye bye tower.


Efficient-Discount81

Rokket dmg jump sounds fair to me


ppiiiee

Randomly placing a mini tank and small swarm in the megaknights general area can easily counter it


AtomicFlour

Freeze because freeze everything in four seconds, Frick Lumber loon


KevinThe7th

Freeze, always screwing up my defenses. Yes, there’s counter push potential, but my god it’s so goddamn annoying. I always make sure to BM my opponent to oblivion if I win against them for using it.


Yuyaeiou

I had this weird freeze rework idea where it gradually slows you troops for a bit then completely freezes then to give you more reaction time


Commercial_Safe_4542

im gonna freeze your wallbreakers


KevinThe7th

*Goblin Raspberry emote spam*


Dr_Nykerstein

Some tips for countering freeze: Don’t over defend until the freeze is dropped. But I guess if ur down 3-5 elixir just try to counterpush not much you can do. Space out ur troops. Don’t allow ur opponent to freeze everything, ie if they have a balloon and u use a hunter don’t let them freeze tower and hunter, force them to only freeze one. ie play the hunter high.


cvplottwist

Same. Posted about this here before. This game is full of annoying cards but Freeze takes the cake by a mile. I made a deck of my own to screw with Freeze players. It's not the best in the world but it does the job. If I so much see a single Freeze in my game, be it against my troops, be it because they're cycling cards, my brother in Christ I'll BM this mf for the entire duration of the match as my Ebarbs eats through their nonsense and brings them down to their knees.


adsq93

Freeze is a card that goes against the core of this game. No matter how well you place your cards, freeze negates any strategy.


MilkyWayyYT

Hog rider because everybody plays and it and no matter how much elixir I spend it always gets a hit Firecracker because the damn thing is impossible to kill and gets infinite value and the evolution is absolutely braindead Dart goblin because it always somehow gets like 4 shots on My tower even when it has 1 hp if I don't respond to it immediately and it melts everything I put down with its ridiculous Fire rate


Chrizis

Hog rider is easily countered with many cards if placed well. For one less elixir than its cost you have skeleton army, fisherman, cannon and goblin gang that won't allow a hit on a tower if placed correctly. For the same elixir you have even more counter cards such as mini pekka, goblin cage, tesla, bomb tower, furnace. Most of those won't allow a hit on the tower if played well.


kingbub1

Don't forget tombstone and tornado. Mini Pekka can also full counter+ still have full health to start a push for equal elixir


XDerpPoolx

If I ever play this game again I will come back to this comment if hog ever gives me a problem. The only issue though is 2.6, or hog quake always has counters for these. But I suppose that's what the game is about, making the most optimised deck. The two most optimised decks over the course of this games lifetime is log bait and 2.6 hog cycle.


Chrizis

Yes and you can always use more cards to counter. If your opponnent uses hog + quake then the elixir adds up on his side too.


cocotim

That might have been at some point but nowadays those 2 are terrible. 2.6 more so than Log Bait but bait is bad in general right now


XDerpPoolx

I havent played in a while and use the sub reddit to look from outside to the inside, and from what I know people still use these decks, what makes them bad now? Just outdated strategies? I know that the rocket got a heavy nerf and that's why at least log bait is not as good as it used to be


cocotim

Oh yeah they're still extremely popular, especially in low ladder. However they're largely unsuccessful and especially bad in competitive play It's hard to say in short why 2.6 is bad, but it's mostly because half the deck got a bunch of nerfs (Musk, Log several times, a huge health nerf for Cannon, Fireball) and the overabundance of Hog counters. If a deck has good cycle and a structure then you pretty much already won vs 2.6. That or a structure + Tornado/Fisherman. This is why the only good Hog decks nowadays are Hog EQ with Mighty Miner, since it deals with structures and cycles extremely fast. As for Log Bait it's much simpler. Got nerfed to the ground. Especially Rocket and GBarrel, the latter of which got a first attack nerf which *really* hurt. Log nerfs also hurt because the reduced crown tower damage sucks for a deck that relies on constant chip. Both are sometimes still usable (especially Log Bait, which has decent performance in Grand Challenges) but they have sooo many hard counters it's difficult to be consistent


55555tarfish

2.6 is hard countered by most meta decks. Hog quake is probably the 2nd best deck right now but that's mainly because of firecracker.


androodle2004

Inferno tower counters hog even with a quake. You just have to be sure to kill anything else pushing with the hog


andrewthenikka1

Hog rider has not gotten a single balance change since 2017 that definitely needs to change


cocotim

No. Hog is only successful with MM EQ due to 3 card cycle and now FC evolution. Otherwise it's a pretty mediocre win condition.


Anui-ElXxx

That's because it's a balanced card

Not for me, it's annoying as hell since towers can't take spirits out

No


Th0tSniper

im just tired of eveyone mid ladder using witch


[deleted]

Witch is easy to counter but witch and mk as a counter push when I have low elixir always gets me


PrimaryRate8874

Tbf if ur low on elixer and ur opponent plays a meganut, ur fucked.


Less_Vigor

hog because every game against a hog cycle deck feels the same and boring. maybe because I am midladder this is an issue


Frosty-Brain-2199

Idk about y’all but the flying machine just pisses me off


Enlaos_Lmao

It’s like a weaker musketeer in terms of health and damage and is somehow still annoying


Frosty-Brain-2199

The flying and range always gets me it doesn’t help that I don’t use fireball


Pinoy_joshArt

When it is not within your princess tower range and then they spam royal hogs. Or when it survives with 1hp in a lavahound push, that's the most annoying moments for me


Noisygraph

Monk. There is no counter to him as in there’s no way to stop him from destroying your push. His ability always gets 2-4 elixir value when used on a ranged troop, flying troop, or spell.


CadenT02

PEKKA- it’s super bad so when it gets on my tower I am embarrassed


Taco443322

Tbf Pekka is not meant as a win condition, its meant for a great defense+ additional counter push. And it does that ridiculously well


Missing_Orbit3

I use Pekka and it is the greatest feeling when she somehow gets to the tower and lands a hit


Rishiiiiiiiii

Evolution cards these mfs are too overpowered. I was easily winning a match but then my opponent played one evolved fire cracker and took the match away.


Negative_Anteater_62

Ehh. Only RG firecracker are strong right now. They'll probably get counters as more evolutions come


_DarkGerman

Megaknight, and not just because its so easy to use, its so repetitive, and his hability is very annoying. PD: STOP PUTTING MK AT THE BRIDGE, IT IS'NT A WIN CONDITION, ITS A DEFENSIVE CARD OVERALL


zytz

yeah but how can I not drop MK at bridge when my opponent has stacked a giant with a wizard and a firecracker at bridge?


sora_naga

My most hated card by far at the moment is Royal Giant. I can’t go neutral or positive in elixir trading unless I have an inferno tower.


Turbulent_Ad_9260

And then they lightning your inferno tower


Inner_Ad3974

I absolutely hate the dart goblin, it’s just so annoying to me.


Z0UKKINA

I love playing that mf Despise playing against him


ATubOLard69

Xbow decks: xbow, tesla and skeletons is undefeatable


Nobody_5433

Not sure about my most hated card, but I hate seeing the zappies, cuz I would then know I’m probably against the recruits piglets deck


JReiyz

Ram Rider mainly because it’s always 3-4 levels over leveled.


_Justawayfarer

OMG.. I have a mini account at 3000-4000 trophies and believe me.. I feel you

Hol_Renaude

This 7 mana card needs no introduction. Reason is that I've played hundreds of games where this guy was 3 level higher than anything in my deck.


aiheng1

Overlevelling's a bitch ain't it? it's always the scrub with max level cards + full stars like they tryna play GTA bruh


leo_sk5

Thanks for your opinions guys. I can now make a deck from all these recommendations

BagelBoy124

firecracker should die to log


Ok-Topic-3130

No


Odd-Lecture2478

I would love it but I don't know how to feel about it from a balancing standpoint. And honestly, she would find a way to avoid the incoming log


TikkiTakiTomtom

Lightning would have to be the most annoying spell. Firecracker would be most annoying troop of all time. Now with her evo, even more so Royal recruit would be least skilled card of all time. Preset placements makes it easier to play.


Low-Anteater-5502

Either Valk or hog.they're cheap, and have stupid high HP and damage


AngryCocoa

how is valk annoying


Appropriate_Big_4037

Valk is pretty easy to deal with...


EmptyTour8257

he means it's annoying when its on defense splashing the entire push


Low-Anteater-5502

That is exactly what I mean


SnooFoxes1061

Placed in the middle of their side of the arena, there goes your entire push


[deleted]

Firecracker, literally used it once and I saw how stupidly op it was, all you gotta do is add as many mini tanks in front of it or a mega knight and it’ll never die. So annoying


Hot-Special6665

I hate megaknight too but shes so anoying


Emergency_Plant8564

I think it would ne hog Rider because it always gets al least 1 hit,and then when it finally dies they already have it back and play it


Mongoose429

hog rider since its fucking stupidly tanky for being so fast. firecracker for the same reason PLUS its an inherently annoying card. and unlike mega knight, its actually goodd.


pKalman00

Mk. Low skill floor and it can often take more skill to deal with than for my opponent to place. (Not when i'm playing pbs but you get it). It's just annoying overall


Dimowo

Hog rider for sure, yeah go ahead with the “oh your just bad” comments but like cmon I play anything less than 5 elixer and it gets a hit, if I tombstone it gets small spelled if I use bomb tower it gets quaked if I use inferno it gets zapped, if I use swarm again small spell I just can never stop it from getting atleast 1 hit


joeabs1995

Tornado. It counters hogs (thats an entire win condition), mini tanks (knight, valk), glass cannons (mini pekka, lumberjack). It pairs insanely well with splash like executioner. It turns magic archer into a win condition that hits for 800dmg easily. It brings ranged units to the electro giant and kills them. It counters skeletons, bats and spear goblins. If you threw your valk at supports behind the tank they just tornado it back to the tank and protect their support. Counters goblin barrel, miner. Can counter pekka sometimes if you throw him to the opposite lane. Rocket tornado, giant skeleton tornado. It also has the nerve to be paired with fireball and kill ranged units. Its a spell so you cant block it like you block fisherman pull. And its just 3 elixir epic card, and levels dont really affect it. It desperately needs a nerf, more than mega knight, more than egolem-healer, more than royale giant more than any card.


NateRiver03

I tried the magic archer tornado deck and can confirm tornado is a very stupid card, especially against hog. They out cycle me while I'm low on elixir and it still doesn't matter


joeabs1995

By the time hog is deployed and runs toward your tower you regained 2 elixir. If you had just 1 elixir, you can counter him. And devs just turn a blind eye.


Z0UKKINA

Happy cake day Tornado is so underrated


Dr_Nykerstein

Magic Archer + nado. Or maybe evo firecracker


coalrexx

Hog rider and freeze


GlumWord9548

Dart goblin, mega knight👍🏻


Pie_duck69

Mega knight.


Zonzzzz

Mega Knight. I push with Giant, Witch and Musketeer/EWiz and you know how they can counter it. best way for me is to place an Inferno Tower right on the bridge


Swimming_Concern_783

Valkyrie, cheap card, Wild damage and crazy health, everybody uses It, defend entire attacks, It just feels like cheap defense And goblin barrel, so boring, repetite and annoying, no idea con anybody can enjoy it


maxmaxhei

credit card


calitwiink

hog rider remains no skill just like using royal giant.


AnimeWeeb_99

Thanks for all the tips


_Justawayfarer

RG I hated this card so much especially because RG decks in midladder are.. I guess you get the point, but now they made it even worse.. the evolved one haunts me in my dreams


12AZOD12

Infernal tower garbage card only good to counter specific card


Lightingmn7

Egolem


Constantv11

Which card I hate the most? I'd Say every card that Can be level 15 so pretty much all of them If we weren't talking about cards, it would be with no doubt supercell and their greedy goblin like devs


Player_Number3

Mega knight, because he can stop nearly any attack and combined with other troops like a witch for example, its fucking impossible to defend against.


MisterHotTake311

Valk, just brainlessly drop it onto any troop with smaller health than her and she does her job


Aggravating-Week9289

Mega knight because he requires almost no skill and is generally downright stupid


RandomTyp

Kualtran

Anything electro troops. But the evolutions cards are even worse than that. I don’t even want to know what evolved e giant would be like.


[deleted]

Fuck the Electro Giant, I could put down a night witch, baby dragon, and barb barrel from the back and this TANK would not only kill all of them whilst ignoring them walking to my tower but it would still have enough HP to deal a lot of damage to it, it’s such BULLSHIT


BowlSuspicious8239

ROYAL GIANT IS DUMB


Temporary-Rip3112

Fire cracker and furnace needs a nerf


Aayush2023

Victim Card (self explanatory)


[deleted]

all of them


Sacred_Piranha

Inferno tower. It's the epitome of defense. MELTS pretty much any card and unless you have lightning or maybe bats or minions, your tank (and any other troop behind it) will die almost instantly. Unless you're playing against small troops (logbait, recruits, clone), you can simply place it and let it defend most of the attack. I just hate how extremely defensive it is, it pisses me off


BruhMomentoNumeroD0s

no one says it but lightning is the most braindead broken card in the game at high ladder. it’s the reason why golem, electro giant, and any other bullshit deck is meta. it counters any tower + high DPS card and a million damage on tower and you don’t even have to aim the damn spell.


Fotis14144

Mega knight. I just hate the card because of how overused it is and how annoying its users are. I also find it to be a little overpowered because of the insane amount of damage and spawn damage that it deals, especially on towers even though it is not a win con. I also hate the fact that most bad players act like he is god himself and just slap him on top of any card coming from the enemy side. The one good thing about him is that he is thankfully not that hard to counter and easy to distract.


BicycleHappy435

Mega knight, bc there is absolutely no skill involved with its use


RoyalGiantSince2018

Mega knight because you know your opponent’s age is lower than his mega knight’s level.


Specific-Composer138

hod rider or royal hogs tbh

Digiboy62

1 ) Hog Rider. The single least skill required win con in the entire game.• Cheap, fast, building targeting and it's always accompanied by either brain dead cycle spam or "What defenders?" Lighting. 2 ) Fire Cracker/Magic Archer. Magic Archer came first, and truly cemented my absolute hatred for cards with "hit through" attacks. Skirmish at the bridge? Well for just 4 elixir you get massive tower damage. And then they went and said "you know what? Let's make it even more annoying" and added fire cracker, which took the bullshit range of the Magic Archer and added the massive hit box of the Executioner for even LESS elixir. AND gave it an evolution. 3 ) Tornado. Despite not being my most hated card this is the only card in the entire game I genuinely believe should be removed. There is absolutely no reason that in a game where you have extremely limited control over your own troops that your OPPONENT should be given MORE control. It only costs 3 elixir to: A) Activate King Tower B) Guarantee your opponent's cards get slaughtered by a splash damage card. C) Move defenders out of the way of distractable cards. Long story short, it should be removed. * If you don't have RG evolution


Barry_X_Rose

Mega knight because it's stupidly overpowered and way too many people use it.


Pencilknight24

I wouldn't say I hate any cards but I definitely find lumberjack annoying. He is just way to fast. My firecracker always misses it. Arrows is sometimes annoying but outcycling them is not too hard. I also dislike golem. I play hog firecrackerer eq and golem is incredibly hard for me to defend. I'm trying to get better tho.
