Elixir Advantage Trick – Secret to Winning the Battle

Hello my friends, in this guide, we are going to discuss about the Elixir Advantage, the most important factor in Clash Royale. I will also mention couples of things you are probably doing, both good and bad ways, help you be more conscious of your play style and make you a much better player.

As we all know, both players will receive the same amount of Elixir throughout the battle time and the Cards will go back and forth. It’s very hard to destroy a Tower in game since it’s the goal every player targets. The best time to destroy a Tower is obviously when it is not protected. One way is to simply bait a tower into being undefended then steal it (Goblin Barrel, Prince,…). However, If you can kill high Elixir cards, you will have lots of Elixir to use and your opponent just can’t afford to defend against them. Defeating your enemy to gain more Elixir to have an advantage over enemy.

For example: Drop the Arrows card onto the Goblin Barrel, If you can do it right, your tower will just take the 30 damage from the Barrel and 0 damage from the Goblins. 3 Elixir for 4 Elixir, that’s a gain of 1 Elixir for you. Do it couples of times in the battle and you can earn a few free cards to knock down the enemy Towers (obviously). There are plenty of ways to spend your Elixir but as far as I can see, 5 Elixirs is enough to take down a tower (Balloon, Prince,…).

Yes! You got it! Make enough Elixir trades and you will have enough Elixir to destroy the Tower and win the battle. This is the most reliable way to win Battles in Clash Royale. The secret to winning in Clash Royale is gain more Elixir from your enemy.

Proactive cards and Reactive Cards

Our Rules:

1. 1. Do not talk about Elixir Advantage Trick.
   2.  Do not talk about Elixir Advantage Trick.
   3. Never waste your Elixir, place a card when it reaches 10 Elixirs.
   4. Most of the time, you just need 5 Elixir difference to win the game.

• Play a mix of Reactive and Proactive cards.

What are Proactive cards?

Proactive Cards should be cards which can threaten the enemy Crown Towers and hard to made Elixir-positive trades. They are the cards you can play blind when it hits 10 Elixir. Don’t use any card which can’t deal a single damage to the Tower before it dies, that’s the rule #3 above.

• • • • Minions: Most of the time, they can’t deal much damage before getting killed. Don’t use them proactively.

     

• Skeleton Army:

Bad, easy to counter.
• Don’t waste 4 Elixir for this.

• Baby Dragon: Not bad, it’s not easy to counter tho and can deal hundreds damage to the enemy Towers.

• Other Good Proactive Cards: Knight, Giant, Valkyrie, Giant Skeleton, P.E.K.K.A,…

Use your Proactive cards when they don’t have any good Reactive Cards:

• Prince, Balloon, Minion Horde, and Hog Rider would be nice.
• If you know the opponent is holding a counter, don’t drop your Proactive card until that counter card is placed.
• Don’t use your Prince If the opponent hasn’t used the Tombstone yet. 3 Tombstones – 3 Princes = -6 Elixir = losing!

What are Reactive cards?

They are cards which help you do positive Elixir trades in the battle. Don’t bother to drop the Arrows on 1 Elixir Skeleton but  a Minion Horde or the Skeleton Army.

• The upside: Most of the time, they will swing the battle in your favor.
• The downside: Sometimes the opponent cards are not easy to counter.

Reactive Cards and Matchups

Think clearly before using your reactive cards for the positive Elixir trades. Using 3 Elixir to deal with 2 Elixir is going to destroy your own Towers.

• Arrows > Minion Horde/Skeleton Army/Goblin Barrel.
• Arrows = Minions.
• Arrows < Spear Goblins.

Matchups matter at close level:

• • Arrows can kill Spear Goblins, Minions but can’t kill Archers.
  • Rocket can destroy equal level Goblin Huts and Elixir Collectors.
  • A single Tombstone can kill equal level Hog Rider, Prince and Giant.

• Freeze Spell

can’t hit troops from the frozen Tombstone or freshly summoned troops.
• Don’t use Skeleton Amy to counter Witch or Wizard because they can deal AoE damage.
• A single Lightning Spell can kill equal level Witch, Musketeer and Wizards.

Trading HP Vs. Elixir

Never lose the sight of the end goal: Having more Crowns before the clock goes to 0:00. There is no difference between 1-0 and 3-0. One of the most common mistakes that I have seen is players focus on a defense instead of dealing damage to the enemy Towers, especially at the end of the battle. Your Crown Towers have decent HP and they can take care of themselves in an attack. Don’t Arrow a pack of 3 Goblins or Minions.

A Tower with 1 HP wins the game as much as a Tower with 1000 HP. Sometimes, just let your Tower take hundreds damage and spend those Elixirs on a Proactive cards, which can finish off the enemy Tower. Using the Prince in the opposite lane you are getting attacked is a good common trick. If both players have all Towers: Just keep defending because you still have lots of time to finish off the enemy Towers.

Elixir – Basic Guide to Attacking and Deploying

Hello guys, It’s Ash! Nice to see you guys again in this new post! Today, I am going to give you my own advice of attacking and deploying Elixir fundamentals in Clash Royale. I hope you guys will like it!

Clash Royale Elixir Basic Guide Part I

When starting your battle, you should first allow your Elixir bar to fill

You should not recklessly deploy your cards without first loading up on a full Elixir bar as this will only give your opponent the advantage. Filling the Elixir bar to full will give you an advantage. For example, say you deploy your Prince card when battle just started and you have 6 Elixir. Your opponent can simply place a Tombstone, which costs 2 less Elixir and quickly counter your Prince and take a 2 Elixir lead. Loosing Elixir lead will cause you to loose the Clash Royale battle.

Another example is playing a defense such as the Inferno Tower right away. This is a bad idea as your opponent can just wait a few seconds to load up on full Elixir, plan out a good counter, and also weaken your Inferno Tower without even touching it because of the Inferno Tower’s 40 second lifetime. Thus, it is important to first allow your Elixir bar to load up. Loading up on your Elixir will increase your chance of winning the battle.

Usually, you will face opponents who will also wait to deploy until they have a full Elixir bar. In this case, you have two options:

1. Deploy your card first – If you reach 10 Elixir and deploy you deploy your card first, then you will be given a greater Elixir lead for every second your opponent remains at full Elixir.
2. Deploy your card second – If you reach 10 Elixir and decide to wait and deploy your card right after your opponent to play a better counter, then that will give your opponent an extra 1 Elixir lead.

​Usually, it is best to deploy your first card at the moment or right before you have a full Elixir bar. Deploying your first card right when the Elixir is full gives you maximum benefit.

When starting your battle, it is often a good idea to start with a low Elixir cost card

Start slow. I have stated in this guide numerous times that you should start your battle with a slow tempo, and this is a key fundamental to winning. Moving slow in order to win fast when it’s time to attach. This is the Basic Guide to Attacking and Deploying.

For example, say you have the Prince and Archer card in your starting hand. Do you start with the Archers or your Prince? It is often better to start with the Archers due to their significantly less Elixir cost (3 Elixir compared to Prince’s 5 Elixir cost). Why is this important? This is important as starting with a high Elixir-costing card is often dangerous. If your opponent simply places a Tombstone card (3 Elixir cost), then you are quickly in losing the Elixir race by 2. 

While playing a low Elixir-costing card such as the Archer comes with less risk of that and will also allow you to scout your opponent’s first move without having to waste Elixir on a full bar. If your opponent decides to send out his Giant and Musketeer at the same time, then you are prepared to make a good counter with the 7 remaining Elixir. While if you had deployed your Prince, then the Giant + Musketeer combination will quickly take out your Prince. 

A good idea is to load up on Elixir to create a stronger combination of cards is to deploy your troop card at the very end of the battlefield (behind your Towers)

As your troop(s) take a longer time to travel to the opposite side, you allow yourself to load up on greater Elixir. Thus, if you wish to create a deadly combination such as a Giant + Musketeer + Witch, then this requires 14 Elixir to do so. To accomplish this, you can place your Giant at the far end behind one of your Towers and by the time he travels to the crossing bridge, you will have the additional 9 Elixir to complete your combination.

Which Arena Tower should I attack first?

When starting your battle, you may choose to attack either of your opponent’s Arena Towers first. However, if your opponent chooses to attack first, then you should prepare a counter to his threat to protect your tower rather than ignore the threat and attack the other tower. For example, if your opponent sends out Archers against your left Arena Tower, ignoring the Archers and going for the right Arena Tower with your Prince card is a bad idea because the Archers will deal significant damage to your left Arena Tower while there is no guarantee that your Prince will make it to right Arena Tower as your opponent can simply place a Tombstone or Skeleton Army to stomp your Prince. And so, ignoring the threat and making a reckless play like that can cost you the battle right from turn one.

Focus on destroying one Arena Tower at a time

A big mistake I see new players often make is that they keep switching towers. You should focus on destroying the tower with the lowest HP first, and then move onto attacking the second tower while also playing defense if you’re in the lead (to let the clock run out).

Try to shift the momentum of the battle towards the direction of your healthiest Arena Tower

For example, say that your left Arena Tower has 1000 HP and your right Arena Tower has 2000 HP (and both your opponent’s Arena Towers are at full health). In this scenario, your opponent will try to constantly target your left Arena Tower since it is obviously weakened. However, it is still very possible for you to win even if you’re trailing. What you should do to make a comeback is try to force your opponent to attack right Arena Tower rather than your weakened left Tower.

In order to do this, you should load up on Elixir, and play a little defense on your left Arena Tower (remember Arena Towers have Archers atop them to assist you on defense so take advantage of that) and then make the first move in attacking your opponent’s right Arena Tower with a good combo (i.e. Giant + Musketeer). This will make it difficult for your opponent to ignore the big threat and will have him shift his offense towards to protect his Arena Tower. With his offense shifted towards the right side, you can now focus on repeatedly placing pressure towards this side (preventing your opponent from spending Elixir to target your left side). This strategy will allow you to even the playing field, while going for a one Crown victory.

The most powerful attacks are attacks that are played in combinations

For example, a card such as the Giant is not much of a threat alone as he is a very slow troop. However, when combined with a ranged attacker such as the Archer or Musketeer card, it becomes a much bigger task to stop this threat. A Giant alone can be taken down by a 3 Elixir Minion card, but with the assistance of Archers, the Minions will not be able to take out the Giant (as he makes his way to your opponent’s tower). Thus, you should constantly try to load up on Elixir (and also win Elixir trade-offs) and attack in combinations!

There are many distinct ways of classifying a troop card and its specialties:

• Ground troop = A troop that attacks from land.
• Air troop = A troop that can fly and attack from above. Air troops can avoid being targeted by Ground troops that cannot target flying units (such as Bomber, Prince, Knight, Valkyrie, etc.).
• Melee troop = A troop that fights mano a mano (hand-to-hand combat).
• Range troop = A troop that can attack from a distance. Range troops such as Archers are able to attack from afar and so they are best utilized behind melee troops as the melee troops are able to shield your ranged attacker.

There are two types of damage inflicting cards

Cards that deal “point damage” (damage to a single troop or building) and cards that deal “area or splash damage” (damage to multiple troops or buildings). Point damage cards include Musketeer, Prince, Archer, Mini Pekka, etc. Area damage cards include Bomber, Valkyrie, Witch, Baby Dragon, Arrow, Fireball, etc. While it may sound like area-damaging cards are the better option, they are among the weakest cards in the game. Thus, these two types of cards have different roles. With the ability to damage multiple units, area damage cards are best utilized for defeating hordes or swarms of low HP troops such as Skeletons, Goblins, Barbarians, etc. While point-damaging cards tend to have the greatest DPS (Damage Per Second) among all cards and so they can best utilized for destroying high HP units. For example, a Mini Pekka can be used to quickly take down a Giant. While an area attacker like the Valkyrie will struggle to deal decent damage onto the Giant.

Here are the Clash Royale Battle – Basic Rules:

Since Clash Royale is a pretty new game so many players can’t understand the rules in game completely. I’d love to write this small guide and help you!

In Summary,  If you win a battle, you earn trophies and you can go up to unlock new Arenas. Arenas unlocks new Cards.

The Battle in Clash Royale

• Players square off against live competition on tiny maps dotted by six buildings; three for each player: two Arena Towers and one King’s Tower.
• The object of the game is to destroy the other player’s King’s Tower (middle building) while protecting your own.
• You’ll do this by deploying troops from a hand of cards (drawn from a Battle Deck that you’ve built) anywhere within an allowable area on the field.
• Each card requires a certain amount of Elixir to deploy, but your Elixir regenerates quickly, so you’re only ever moments away from deploying your next troop or spell.
• More cards are collected by unlocking chests won in battle or bought in the shop, which in turn will unlock new cards that you can add to your Battle Deck and level up the cards you already have.
• On the event of taking down an Arena Tower, a new region on the opponent’s side is opened, available for you to deploy your Troop Cards to have an upper hand on the opponent.

The Battle Deck

• Your battle deck is the rotation of cards you wish to have in battle.
• To change these you must tap the card you wish to add into your battle deck and tap use then tap the card that you would like remove from your battle deck.
• Next to the Battle Deck heading it will display the average elixir cost of all your troops, sometimes this can come in handy when deciding if your deck is suitable. For example a deck with an average of 3.5 elixir that is semi-powerful is better than a deck with an average of 4.7 that is slightly more powerful as you will not be able to deploy troops as often to counter defences and proceed with your offensive strategy.
• The battle deck consists of only 8 cards, so you want all your cards to be ones that you will be using, otherwise that is a waste of a valuable cardspace.

Winning the Battle in Clash Royale

• If you destroy the other player’s King’s Tower, you win immediately.
• If no one is able to take down the King’s Tower within the first 2 minutes, you and your opponent’s Elixir regeneration speed is doubled.
• If no one is able to take down the King’s Tower or have more towers destroyed than the opponent within the first 3 minutes, sudden death is enabled, a mode in which the next player to destroy a tower wins.
• If that is not able to happen within another minute, the game will end as a tie and no one will receive or lose any of their Trophies.

These Clash Royale Battle Basic Rules will help newbie to start playing. Another way for newbies to increase their skill in this awesome Esport battle is to join local private tournaments.

Hi Clashers! It’s Krux here and back again with some warm wind and a new Clash Royale guide. Last time we saw the Best tips for under-leveled players. Today I will be showing you the top five cards to use for your clan’s boat defense in Clan Wars 2. So, before we get started there are a few things that you should remember.

First, your cards will spawn in a pattern based on the card slots you put them in. The card in the first slot will spawn first, followed by slot 2, then slot 3, and finally slot 4. After that the pattern repeats. Due to this unique system you will want a tank in slot one to soak damage for your other cards.

Second, your towers recharge elixir up to 4 times the normal speed. This means using many high elixir cost cards like Mega Knight and Three Musketeers is actually good for you.

Third, your towers will only spawn cards when damaged and when its elixir is full. This means using combo cards like tornado + fireball is less useful and almost impossible to perform. Okay, now that we’ve learned the basics of Boat Defense lets look at the best cards to use!

Top 5 Boat Defense Cards in Clash Royale

5. Rascals

The best formula to card synergy is Tank + Support, and Rascals gives us this in just one card! Just like in the card description, the Rascal Boy soaks damage while the girls attack enemies from behind. But due to the Rascal Boy’s rather low hit points for a Tank, I recommend putting this card in a slot that’s right behind a tank to cover this weakness.

4. Royal Hogs

src=”https://clash.world/images/royal-hogs.png” alt=”Clash Royale Royal Hogs” width=”186″ height=”223″ />Next up is Royal Hogs. Royal Hogs are opposite lane pressure troops so they will be spawned in front of the opposite tower. So, you should put them in either your right or your left tower. You can also substitute this card with other opposite lane cads but I recommend sticking with hog or ram. I don’t recommend using cards like Elite Barbs and Lumberjack because they can be distracted by other troops while ram and hogs only get distracted by buildings. In the end its up to your own personal choice.

3. Bowler

/>src=”https://clash.world/images/clash-royale-bowler.png” alt=”Clash Royale Bowler” width=”180″ height=”216″ />The Bowler is an amazing defensive card for just 5 elixir. His penetrating attack and ability to knock back some enemies makes him a good choice for defending against big pushes. His boulder can easily counter Skeleton Barrel, Goblin Barrel, Witch, Royal Hogs, and even Barbarians. However, his weakness is the inability to attack air units and slow hit speed that results in not being able to counter Tanks. He can also get killed by P.E.K.K.A in just a few shots. To cover his weaknesses, you can put a more higher health unit and an air targeting DPS unit in the slots before him.

2. Inferno Tower

/>Beatdown decks have been pretty popular in Boat Battles, and what better way to take down tanks than roasting them with Inferno Tower. Being a building, the Inferno Tower will not only melt down tanks but distracts them from attacking your tower (if they haven’t already targeted your tower). Since buildings are spawned in front of their tower in Boat Battles, you should place the Inferno Tower in the center tower to gain better placement. If you’re seeing a lot of clone decks, you should consider switching to Bomb Tower as it has more area control. Tesla is also a good substitute for Inferno Tower.

1. Barbarians

Like I’ve said above, when building boat defenses, you’d want high elixir cards since your elixir charges 4 times the normal rate. And the highest Elixir swarmies is Barbarians.  They’re packed with thick health and a terrifyingly high DPS. They can quickly shred any tanks that tries to destroy your tower (unless it’s Mega Knight). And the enemy will need at least a wizard or fireball to counter them. When using this card, do not put them in slot one because you’ll want to but a heavier unit there to soak most of the damage. You can also use Minion Horde if you want an air swarm.
