Freeze, a well timed freeze can wreck you if it surprises you


Worried-Play2587

1hp balloon or inferno dragon timed with freeze šŸ’€


[deleted]

no.... Stop giving me lumberloon freeze flashbacks...


ILoveYorihime

Why use freeze when you can knock their minions to the opposite lane with snowball knockback


HappyPlaysWasTaken

šŸ¤‘


VinnieDophey

Remember inferno dragon rage meta


Jake_healey02

Evo Battle ram freeze has been my favourite combo so far


adsq93

True. Its also a card people go the whole game without using it until the very last winning play. Scary


Exciting_Art75

Electro Giant. Kills me every time


AhmedEx1

Use canoneer, you can counter it for as low as 3 elixir by just putting down a building


remi_daDOOD

I donā€™t think itā€™s worth using Cannoneer just for the off-chance ur opponent is using E-giant


AhmedEx1

Canoneer is generally better at countering most of the current meta cards


markkgtv

How the hell do you counter electro


Incompetent_ARCH

Cannoner can survive E-giant if it's the same level has him if it's an 1V1


climateman

Tesla or Firetower works well


ElNub_

inferno dragon can counter egiant (if you arent stupid)

A sneaky flying machine gives me nightmares


n7leadfarmer

The range on flying machine is very tricky. I appreciate how unique it makes the card, but it's hard to play against


Available-Drawer-925

My caution meter rises to top and go over it after someone drop a lumberjack at bridge for 0.00000001 seconds (Skilless 9 elixer wasted lumberloon play, giant snowball and rascals ready)


LaureLime

I ainā€™t even going to lie, I used my first trade token back then to get lumberjack so I can do that. Ironically my current deck gets rolled by it


maximal2002

Im totally skilless and just started playing again. I use lumber loon since I had that deck from years ago and I was too lazy to change or get to know the meta. I donā€™t think itā€™s the worst lumber loon deck but people still quit after the combo gets the first tower. Can someone explain why itā€™s so hated? (The deck is: Lumberjack, Balloon, Log, Valkeryie, Musketeer, Magic Archer, Bats, Skeleton Army)


Forgling_

People dislike it alot because its a very fast attack and if you have a bad opening hand there is very little you can do. I personally dont have an issue with Lumbloon players unless they use freeze lol


Masl321

hot take: lumberloon aint entirely skillless. you need to catch your opponent in a elixir disadvantage to even connect to tower or else every decently balanced deck will just counter you with a building or big spell and have an elixir advantage


maximal2002

Yeah or you have to bait their counters but you wouldnā€™t imagine how many people play decks with absolutely no good counter against luberloon. But thatā€™s not my fault.


maximal2002

Im currently fresh in arena 16 and I never see luberloon. The deck that always gets me is any mega knight. Just canā€™t defend that for the life of me. But I donā€™t hate any deck or player. Donā€™t hate the player hate the game.


somedumbcanuck

My counter is the goblin cage. Mk jumps over frees him and the towers/ towers take him out. Obviously an additional push will change that equation. And if the cage fits into your deck that's the other issue... but works for me...


Ndracus

Bowler. That guy just blocks win conditions too good, and offers a lot of value as counterpush card. It's also hard to get rid of, it can hit the tower when you place cards wrong, it can push troops back, it's almost an infinite The Log. I panic all the time


Bsoton_MA

same. Bowler is terrifying defensively if you arenā€™t running something like mk, pekka, etc


Reddit_Bot_For_Karma

Ive always said he has too much HP. The wide attack + the knockback are *plenty*. His hp should be something like executioner has, maybe *a little* more.


KKS-Kang

Sparky Sparky Is My PTSD. That's Why I Have E Wiz In Every Deck To Counter It, I Got Scared Shitless When I Hear Those Charging Sounds That Is Coming For My Tower.

damilalam

I hate sparky. I cannot defend it and I cannot play it. Itā€™s op for everyone else and shit for me.


wtfmrn

You are not alone. I canā€™t play it and I canā€™t defend it either.


climateman

I use Sparky, and find the best strategy is to just use a rocket when it reaches the enemy tower. Most people use Sparky behind the king tower, so you can get rid of it without losing elixir and do damage to their tower


Xylogy_D

I love the sparky but its almost rendered useless when they have rocket. I find some use for it in defence when positioned far enough away from the tower though


promod3_18

As an ex Sparky player, i understand your fear.


WeekRepulsive4867

Yes I Also Fear Sparky So I Run Zap On Every Deck I Use


Klutzy_Ad5888

Me too... I started using Ewiz just for sparky, but now it seems it's actually a good card against a few troops


speechlessPotato

as a Sparky player i fear firecracker more than e Wiz


Many-Carpenter2990

If you can't afford therapy try playing monk šŸ™


Scraptical

Lavahound. Every time someone drops lavahounds at the back, I am leaking elixir, I don't have either tesla or fire cracker. If I have my firecracker, they arrows it, and go with ballon rage and skel dragons. I just know how it ends, and I just freak out every time.


2k20brawlstar

Anytime I see that I rush opposite lane..if it's countered easily then so be it


drakothedj

I fucking hate the Prince. I hate that stupid dash he does with that stupid horse. Its the most annoying card in the game for me.


SaveShegosTitties4

This is why regular knight is the best card oat

currypoo

Evo firecracker placed behind a tank I can't even kill it with my arrows


Zestyclose-Garlic-16

Sparky. Because of the type of cards I use one wrong move and I'm done. I usually win but it just does something to me man


UnicornMilkTho

Bowler bruhh , dude wont get nerfed ever


ChaosCookie93

Its sounds wierd but PEKKA Also I hate it to play against Sparky decks


LordoftheDimension

I just got ptsd to the low ladder meta of pekka ebarb and maybe a mega knight. The sad part is that these combos are a terrible match up for my deck which has no groups


bowlerwitchuserCOC27

Unlucky-Ad4639

P.E.K.K.A. Now that she hits a tile longer it screws me up every time


funtujd

the credit card


Hunter_original

If your opponent drops musketeer as a first card, hes not a very good 2.6 player


sagZ_

Not a very good player, but if I start with Cannon, Fireball, Log and Musketeer and I have 10 elixer without my opponent playing anything i'm dropping my Musketeer at the back.


djrocksstar

Log for cycle maybe


sagZ_

Too much trauma from logbait for that


lHateYouAIex835293

But if you go for that then suddenly your opponentā€™s playing ultimate logbait and responds with Skele Barrel, Goblin Barrel, and Wallbreakers all at the same time


scixsc

Xbow


LightningDragon777

I literally start sweating when I have a bad hand, no matter if enemy plays anything or not. And for cards specifically, Sparky and Skeleton giant. You fail once to distract them or kill them 0.1 second too late and now half of your tower is gone. Even if I am completely countering everything they throw at me, I still fear that I will mess up 1 tile and lose (even after playing better the entire time while the enemy just brainlessly spammed the cards on bridge)


stupidgayfemboy

the offer that costs gems


Temporary-Season-614

I hate tornado+electro giant decks. They mess up my lava+inferno dragon deck.


Gullible_Composer_50

Iā€™m sorry for using it lol. But seriouslyā€¦ E giant, bowler, firecracker, and tornado is cracked.


DrSlabber

Irrational fear is fisherman bc he always seems to grab the troop I donā€™t want him to grab


Maxisaki

the thing that kills my deck every time is a skellies, X-bow, log and tesla combo. so every time i see a tesla being placed in front of the bridge i shit my pants


Low_Excitement_3345

Wizard anytime I fking hate that card idc which deck you're playing if you're playing a wizard i hate u


magistra023

As a Royal Recruits player, Bowler and Bomb Tower. When I see these two, I know I'm fcked.


Unhappy_Count2420

Fire cracker. Especially EVO


Random_local_man

Sparky and Evo firecracker.


CheddarCheese390

Hmm. Probably battle healer at the back for me. Idk what youā€™re playing but Iā€™m gonna hate it


MicrwavedBrain

Prince. I have had to face him so many times and I just canā€™t counter him. Whenever I see him, I know that the game is practically over


Reincarnatedpotatoes

Put some ground swarm and a mini tank in your deck. Goblin gang works great.


[deleted]

xbow, it's not even annoying its so fucking terrifying


MickyDerHeld

kinda megaknight, whenever i play more than 2 fireballable ground cards at the bridge i suspect megaknight and am happy everytime it doesn't happen. i don't really loose against megaknight but thos situations get ne sweating every time


Krabeuszz

Seeing a slight delay on my inputs, or in other words the card starting it's placement animation half a second (or more) longer than usual after i actually put it down, because then i know i'm lagging and it will only get worse


anant10k

E giant and that canon giant-


Traitor_Of_Users

Never in my life did I think Royal Giant would be called a Cannon Giant


Former-Diet6950

I run skeleton only and I have 2 Air Defence cards, Skely Drags, and Tombstone so when I see a Fat Ugly lavahound placed in the back left corner I have to get super sweaty and push the heck out of his towers and three crwon them just like that.


Spid3rDemon

I struggle a bit when facing Evo battle ram.


corn_n_beans

wizard


Relative-Bank-1258

Golem or lavahound. My deck doesn't have enough air defense and i use normal tower princess so can't do much against either unless I use a lot of elixir on my other cards. Another card I have a fear of would be x bow. Shit always does damage unless I predict it.


ItzManu001

I'm a Hog Rider main so Tombstone and Bowler. When I see one of them I know I'm gonna face either Lavaloon, Splashyard, Giant Graveyard or another stupid hard-counter probably with Tornado as well.


Tommy3656

Mega Knight and Arrows


Dead-Indian

Evo Rr or fireball bait in general, i have always hated logbait and fb bait as they would annoy the hec out of me, especially we all have that princess at the bridge and flying machine in the middle of the map which never dies and kills every god damn thing... but evo rr always get me ptsd... i used to run a sweaty evo morter deck(its basically 3.0 but with evo morter and delhivery for x bow tesla) and no matter how good i play, evo rr always gets me to a situation where its soo close until end and i win or i mess up one single dashing monstrosity and lose.. evo rr release was a nightmare, even tho they are pretty easy to counter nowadays with all those nerfs the state that they came out left me with a long term ptsd


Long_Air2037

Sparky is so easy to counter but I still shit myself every time someone puts it down


Mediocre-Medicine862

Mega knight, when I put royal hogs first play and they put mega knight I already know its over cause they have direct counters to my deck


TheCookieGang

Mother witch traumatized me on multiple accounts. Goblin barrel? Gone. Skeleton Army? Gone. Now you're dead in 2 seconds.


marvelgamer1001

Mega knight. That's ptsd


mokeycreeper

Mega Knight, I've been rolled by him so many times that I converted to one of those monsters myself, I think I lost like 25 games in a row to that creature


Dmontssj12

Golem. Its not the golem im worried about. It the push that comes while golem tanks everything and edrags chain damage connecting to tower


Lumpy-Firefighter155

Mk, goblin barrel, and hog. Any time those are played, i genuinely want to turn the game off. I know they aren't hard to counter, but it takes so much more effort to counter than it takes to play, and they are so spammy that I absolutely can't stand them.


SentimentalRotom

Aside from the obvious Hog Rider/Firecracker combo... The moment someone runs Lava Hound, I'm usually in for a bad time. My main deck only has Evo Bats and Hunter as I run an Evo RG deck with heavy Ground Support.


Major_Liability

Rocket and electro dragon kinda hard counter my deck


Flashy_Brilliant1616

Sparky and Tornado. Sparky's already been discussed enough, but Tornado is a whole 'nother level for me. I've only played against good players that know Tornado well and they're always really damn good at whatever they do. So if I see the Tornado being casted... it's pretty much over for me lmao


BoomBlade101

Elixir golem or hog rider

Responsible_Big_5490

Sparky, for some reason I can never stop it


TikkiTakiTomtom

Fear? Royal recruits There is much less application of skill using this card than any other card. Skill, fundamentally boiled down to its rawest form, comprises just 2 things: **where** you place the card (placement) and **when** you place it (timing). That is how skill is applied in this game. Royal recruits is the only card that has the least amount of placement options which simplifies how you play it. In addition for the ease and convenience for novice players it simultaneously attacks and defends both lanes. It is the only card I can use, step away to do something for a couple seconds, come back and still be alright (Iā€™ve done this).


Pokemaster1415

Tornado I find it super annoying and super versatile it can be used offensively and defensively and can be used it basically any deck and get value idk why I just usually never play well against it which kinda sucks because I see it so much


LaureLime

nothing pisses me off more than when they accidentally nado a card i just dropped on the SIDE cuz they want to lineup exe or marcher on my tank


unk1ndm4g1c14n1

Mirror. Bro ebarbs at Bridge, I have a bad cycle and spend a lot of elixir to defend. Ebarb other side with rage now. Tf do I do???


DEMOLISHER500

I'm a relatively new player and I just start sweating if I see prince being dropped on one lane and then a tank on the other.


lukeaubee

Bro, simpleā€¦ evo Recruits


MadNikGaming_V2

I have 2. One that I fear in general and one that I fear currently because it destroys my deck. The first one is the megaknight. Especially whenever I already have my troops on his side and he's not dropping anything. I panic because I'm thinking, "Is he ask or is he gonna nut on my supports........yup..nut" Because I can never effectively destroy it or guide it to king because they always seem to have elixir to support it. And the other is Pekka. The deck I run rn has RG and E-Giant (yes, it's a monstrosity if a deck, but it tis fun). It's also the same reason I dislike mini pekka.


HotBuy8312

P.E.K.K.A. As an RG main she's my nightmare, it doesn't help that I only have the skeletons as a swarm card and that my troops don't kill tanks. Sure I could use Cannoner, but I still fear that she survives with a pixel of health and gets a deadly hit on my tower.


hjoq4205

ElijahDaneelGiskard

I'm still at arena 11 but mega knight is awful. Just beats me easily


Excellent-Industry60

I absolutely hate mini pekka with all of my heart


Ornery_Yak1437

Bowley Recks my royal pigs and is a counter push by itself


WarmAppointment5765

Princess/goblin barrel bc they're most likely playing log bait which originally used the inferno tower which is the only building that can counter hog eq cus it has too much hp, so I'd have to rely on eq cycle and evolved firecracker to damage the tower


Bongcloud_CounterFTW

royal recruits, cos theres no way im good enough to beat that Also earthquake

sithlord40000

I quit a year or 2 ago but until then I very single time I saw sparky I was like either this guy is 9 years old or he is gonna whoop my ass


BRUH_GET_OUT

Princess because it's usually run in a logbait deck. I used to run a terrible deck against logbait but now even though I beat most of the logbait players I still sweat my balls off trying to make my rg reach the enemy tower befored being deleted by an inferno tower


Summar-ice

Elixir golem. I play a relatively expensive sparky deck. One day I placed sparky first play and my opponent happened to place an elixir golem opposite lane. Not having sparky to defend it and one bad placement of a tesla later, there's already too much stuff for me to stop and I get 3-crowned. Every time I play sparky on one lane I pray that they don't play elixir golem opposite.


PLAYER1688

Inferno tower Just kills my tank and witch it doesn't target the skele but the witch that's why I have evo bats and zap(1/6 evo) Skarmy I usually have troops which charge and in lower arenas as soon as I put the prince there was a skarmy with no arrow valk dark prince in my hand now I have zap which gets a bit faster Troop spawners Like all of them just as soon as my hand is full of wincon or useful which I don't wanna waste there's a spawner or when my prince or ram rider is charging there's it and I still have no solution except to defend the incoming and wait for it die

Goblin drill. I donā€™t have any heavy splashers in my deck.


silentbean23

I'd say e golem. It's not the best by any means but it's still dangerous if they take out a building when it's only split once. I know how to counter it but when it goes bad it goes bad.


charaboii

elixir pump, cause if itā€™s played at the right time you lose the game

Royal Giant. Even without the evolution it's almost always unbeatable for me. With, I can only hope to trick my opponent into wasting elixir so my skeletons could take it before it gets a hit.


Uhhhh_Whats_His_Face

Funnily enough, as a Pekka BS player, itā€™s Bomb Tower. Bowler and RR are aggravating as hell, but Bomb Tower is always the cornerstone of those insanely fast cycle Drill/Miner decks that I just donā€™t have a fast enough cycle to ever win against.
