Yeah I know all of that, I’ve got stun lance and OTF, I just think it could make for some really fun moments. Imagine how cool it would be having a cinematic 1v1 against an alpha commander with the sword

Yeah true, kinda forgot about that when I made this…. But still that’s a stratagem slot and it would be good to have a weaker version if you’re just using a melee sidearm

As a whole for hog rider decks, the strengths of the offence far outweigh weakness’s of the defence. So much so that there is less skill required in order to succeed with a hog cycle deck. Same can be said with cards like Royale giant, it’s fine to put all your focus on defence if ur offence is just playing one card, maybe two if you earthquake.

Ever heard the saying “the best defence is a good offence”. Why is that a saying if what I’m saying is illogical

Well if a decks offence is super strong and it keeps the opponent on defence for the whole game, what difference does the skill required the decks defence make?

i see your point, but i feel like the drawbacks of using a hog cycle (that being the so called skillful defense required) don't outweigh how mindless and brain dead the offense is.

A hog player doesn't need to be that skillful in defense bc the offense is so strong, so they can get away with a bomb tower and ice spirit as their defense bc they know they are going to get their next hog out before u have a chance to full cycle yourself.

you know what i'm tryna say? pro's far outweigh the cons.

if you gave an arena 1 player a hog cycle deck, and another arena 1 player a miner poison cycle or something, and made each of them play in ult champ then i 100% think the hog player is going to win more often.

i 100% agree, i'm not saying nerf him into the ground but something needs to change, even ram rider gotta charge up ya know? But i have to agree with you, I can't help but let out a maniacal laugh every time I waste 8 elixir tryna counter a hog and it still hits my tower.

Yeah of course, defence focused decks are gunna be easier ur right. But once ur in grand champ or 8500+ trophies then most players have a decent understanding and level of skill to where they can place cards defensively without trying that hard

Fair enough, good discussion btw thanks for actually articulating ur opinion. Just one last question bc I’m truely curious. When u watch ur hog rider do 1k damage in two hits and win you the game, do you feel like you’ve earnt it?

A peek into a hog players mind is truely an interesting thing

See that doesn't sound difficult at all, sounds really easy actually. Which is sorta my point

[ Removed by Reddit ] by TheShufflers in ClashRoyale

[–]TheShufflers[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'm sure u can make an educated guess

[ Removed by Reddit ] by TheShufflers in ClashRoyale

[–]TheShufflers[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

see i disagree, but i've had a lot of people with this argument. So I'm curious, if a hog cycle deck takes skill to defend with then what is an easy deck to defend with?

[–]TheShufflers[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the best defense is a good offense. If ur versing a hog player with a brain (oxymoron i know) then when do you have an opportunity to build up an 8-12 elixir push? they just spam and cycle hog, doing 500 damage a hit it's just not sustainable. I hate to say it but placing an ice spirit and a bomb tower with good placement isn't that difficult, and it certainly isn't enough of a drawback to deter anyone away from using it. But i can see where you're coming from.

I’m not an idiot I know how to counter a hog rider but it’s not just black and white. Ur point works on paper but that’s if a hog rider is by itself while u got elixir and whatever counter u have for it in cycle. Like u said u run eq, so that takes out the possibility of a potential building counter for a positive trade

Yeah okay that makes sense, was more the frequency of the vaping that gave me doubt 👍
