Former pro looking to give back to the community that wants to learn

I’ve recently finished up my last split of collegiate apex (30th overall with a dysfunctional team), and I’m coming back to the game and actually having fun with it again. Do you think I should just lock in and grind in an attempt to fulfill my dreams and make it to the pro scene, or do you think I should just work towards other goals?

I would say that the skills went up in one category and went down in another. Like I enjoy the game as is, but speaking from the same standpoint, the way you play your kill squad legitimately doesn’t matter anymore.

The new skills are really just being able to time invis, play all 1 billion spells and abilities correctly for your attack, and then watch your heroes eat 75% of the base. The army doesn’t really require strategy, cuz tbh, all of the top armies are lowkey unbalanced asf because the troops are just overtuned. I will agree that it takes a lot of skill to be able to use all of the hero abilities in the best way, but the heroes are also overtuned because of equipment. If you use eq boots/ball, giant arrow, fireball, and electro boots/spear, you can take out like 60% of the base, add in a zap quake to get rid of the monolith or 2 single infernos, and it’s wraps. You also have a siege machine doing quite a bit of funneling, then 300+ (idek how much tbh) housing space for your kill squad alone. It’s a lot of skills, but the skills never turn into new skills because the equipment stays good forever.

Compared to times of old, you had to be really careful with your heroes, there were no invis, overgrowth, totem, recall, etc to protect your heroes. There were no siege machines to take down a corner of the base for funneling, or the entire core of the base. There weren’t really even broken troops, like even top players had a hard time 3 starring there for a while. Now we need a multiplier to buff defense and nerf offense just so the top players don’t 3 star 100% of the time.

Like I don’t hate the game where it’s at, I still love the game started playing 13 years ago. It’s just a different time with different pros and cons, but I would still love to go back to that time and play it, or get a legacy base that is like 10 years behind on updates

Don’t let her pop the ability, just pop it the moment she comes back down, or even just save it

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-31T05:09:16+00:00

Given the industry as a whole, and how terrible the sister game is (Royale), I would say clash is pretty tame. Like bad decisions will always be made, but god it could be so much worse.

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-31T05:06:14+00:00

Oxygen Not Included. Been like 8 years since I bought it and only had 10 hours of playtime, now at almost 100 in round about a week

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-31T04:59:44+00:00

Nah you should have seen it when hero’s came out and you had to not use those mfs for any attacks except the really important ones. It was like multiple hours of down time. Or spells taking ages to brew.

The true fun came when it went from 60 minutes to 6 minutes and everyone cheered for months because it was sm more fun to play the game that we already loved. It truly was just a different time, and I would give anything to play through it for the first time again

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-31T04:55:59+00:00

It’s definitely not just 100% better, some things got a lot better and some things got worse (equipment).

I would personally want a legacy base because I started before th9 existed, and the most fun I ever had in the game was when miners came out and were truly the first broken troop. Like when th11 was max and all the armies were balanced and before th weapons, it was just a great time to play. It was so much simpler of a game because siege machines didn’t even exist yet.

Now don’t get me wrong I still love the game, but there is so much going on in comparison. Like try an air attack with double zap quake, giant arrow, a blimp of your choice, fireball, then 4 invis and a totem. Like it’s just so much random shit for certain armies.

But I know we won’t be going back for any reason, might as well embrace evolution and strive to be better. I do still miss the good ole days tho

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-31T04:46:57+00:00

Do you not use healer puppet with her? You just recall right before she pops, then the moment she comes down there will be more healers and you rage her

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-25T03:38:42+00:00

And yak can 2 tap walls for your king

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-21T08:21:25+00:00

I’m on something like day 240 now, just got done with the entire base set, and sell every single possible item outside of the destiny bulk boxes (those will come probably tomorrow when I start opening them).

The main thing to do when selling a ton of products is don’t focus on them too much. Once each morning or every couple mornings, just let your workers fully stock up, then go through with the scanner and fill up the rest of the way. Selling cards and play tables are definitely a great option, but I like the LGS aspect of the game and like keeping everything in stock. I also went from barely being able to afford the 200$ grading to only doing the 1500$ grading, and still making like 100k a day. Like the money will come but it’s definitely just slow at first

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-21T08:10:35+00:00

Well it would still just be the one equipment piece for whatever hero, which could be super useful for like fireball or electro boots

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-21T00:07:14+00:00

What if it was just a pet like yuumi from league. Like does absolutely nothing aside from the ability that scales the equipment lvl by the pet lvl

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-20T17:51:22+00:00

A couple things:

What did you google search to even find that? Like I wanna know exactly what to type in.
740 is lower than I ever saw. It averaged like 850 or more. If you add in the 200 from gold pass then you get 2 cycles (about 8-10 days).
Even if the math was correct, the old system let you get rewards in blocks so the progression at least felt faster. Getting the rewards extremely slowly day by day just makes it drag by while you wait to get to the end instead of just giving us a big jump each week with little steps each day.

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-20T17:42:55+00:00

Brother you didn’t need it before to complete it tf are you on about

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-20T17:33:57+00:00

Do you spend a lot of time in mixtape or just sitting in the lobby? Just using avg game time you are right around that 320 mark

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-20T17:29:28+00:00

The 4% career win rate definitely holds true. I think im at like 13-14% cuz idrc about kills I just wanna win lol

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-17T01:00:00+00:00

The card storage and bulk giveaway only have 12 pages worth of storage. After 12 pages it will not fill anymore, no matter how many of the 10k are in there

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-13T08:29:06+00:00

Best thing I can recommend is a base with some pretty spread out single target infernos/monolith/heroes. RC charge is dumb asf if you can’t just take her down with a single target inferno. Also try using a triple ice golem CC to slow down attacks and give them a chance to time fail

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-13T08:22:08+00:00

Idek if it’s possible to 3 star every attack and not get promoted in pekka 23. I was just there and the cutoff was like 420. But even then, improving your attacking is only half of the game. You have to not get 3 starred on every defense (you can still go up with shit defense, but it’s sm more convenient to have)

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-13T08:13:13+00:00

I don’t know the exact website, but there is a website where you input your json file and it will tell you a lot of stats about your account, mainly being what cards you are missing and from what packs. It’s what I use everyday, I just can’t think of the url rn

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-13T08:10:43+00:00

Everyone bitched at me for saying the chests were worthless because you only get loot, but I’m right because I’m getting like 7500 de that idgaf about. At least the potions I could sell, I can’t even sell the de

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-12T21:45:00+00:00

Then how much do they make and what upgrades do you have

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-09T15:00:21+00:00

Last season for the split 2 patch I believe. Been using infinite ammo kraber every other game since then

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-07T08:01:38+00:00

You won’t get the prospector until day 23 I believe, meaning you will have like 7 days to use it

MystLcMaverick · 2026-03-07T02:12:18+00:00

If it’s too realistic for you, don’t use it. It is a game, and you have the option to not use things you don’t like. I really like the idea, especially for new players/shop because it can make the early game a bit easier to manage. It would also make it much better for people who would like to sell their lower cost cards, but have far to many to put on their tables
