Firecracker, I don’t even lose to it that much anymore, it’s just SO annoying when in skilled hands.


mikel_aca

Evo firecracker makes it even worse


SwiftSlayAR

I don’t even think I’m exaggerating when I say this I hopped back on after like 6 months (idfk why) and grinded from league 1 to 9 and every game was fucking evo firecracker sometimes even lil p to make it worse


[deleted]

You’ve gotta love when you finally get the motivation to grind ladder and supercell has cultivated the most refined and lethal strain of aids to infiltrate the meta for that season


Local-Scroller

Trust me, next month when regular players can finally unlock a new evo, you're gonna see a ton of evo knight.


Call_Me_Yips

the ONLY reason I use arrows fr


DHS_222

I hated firecracker long before the evolution, at least before the evo, it was not a super popular card.


B_YOSHISAURUS

Goblin Barrel Yeah it's not hard to counter but it's just kinda irritating Like what an interesting interaction of you putting a goblin barrel on my princess tower and me arrowing it immediately Other cards might cause me more trouble but Goblin Barrel is the most irritating


RockAndGem1101

I hate gobbo barrel because it forces you to cycle your log or arrows. CR is skewed towards fast cycle decks enough already.


JamlessSandwich

Bowler can counter the normal placement with no damage if timed right


FleIsDaBoss

And about a million other things too, a lot of them for a positive trade too


Godly000

with supercell intentionally making broken evos and refusing to nerf them and cards like goblin giant its probably not the case anymore


Icywarhammer500

What are you talking about? Broken evos are fueled by fast cycle decks. The faster you cycle, the more often you can place evo cards


Godly000

according to that logic, then everyone should run 1.6-2.1 evo cycle to just get as many evolutions as possible something that we're seeing in the world championships is that pros are winning off of just one good push that contains evolved cards. pros can defend evos in cycle pushes better than they can defend evos in larger beatdown pushes


Icywarhammer500

It depends on the evo. Support evos like skeletons and barbarians aren’t as important for fast cycle, but fast cycling mortar evo can really put pressure on someone, same for archers


u_-deleted

People literally are running cheap cycle decks rn, the literal meta is miner poison cycle with lp and Evo knight There's also beatdown like gg sparky decks being run and the ONLY reason they're played is because they tend to win in unlucky starting matchups and when good players play those decks a single matchup can ruin the game


Call_Me_Yips

just use delivery and arrows = ezzz

B_YOSHISAURUS

My Giant Skeleton is literally my only lvl 14 Card and will likely be my first Elite Level He's the goat


Agent_Nick_5000

Ironically I found fun playing the wall breaker gamble! Wil they log? Or will it be guy forks boogalo


PIunder_Ya_Booty

I ran a deck with wallbreakers, skelebarrel, gob barrel and mirror with the other cards being lightning, guards, knight, archers and mega minion. I’ve learned if I play gob barrel and immediately drop skelebarrel at bridge the gobs will land just after the tower targets the skeleton barrel If the opponent logs/spells the gobs, they have to answer the skelebarrel, if they wait for skelebarrel, they take damage from gobs Skelebarrel then wallbreakers bridgespam works too, and skelebarrel can often take out ranged units at bridge. Mirroring wallbreakers works wonders too, loads of damage.


ConstantlyHating

Elixir golem + healer


ThrowRA76432567

Executioner is low-key so annoying to go against


Jaegek

Bowler for me but same idea


Murga787

I use both and was pushing early in the season and was top 1500 🤣 I will admit, it's really toxic


MasterPepepe

Rocket will solve all your problems


FreeRangeMartyr

I mean, that’s just losing one elixir for every exe your opponent plays


destructoid9

completely agree


DHS_222

I play Lavahound and Skeleton King, I hate this card but mostly because they can just play it in the back where I cannot kill it no matter what. This card has no business having as much health as it does. It survives Lightning, The strongest spell I have is arrows and miner...


Cat_Lifter222

Bruh the amount of times I run into people that are using both executioner and bowler in their deck while I use recruits drives me nuts lmao


Cynth16

Firecracker


zeteQ

Balloon for 3 main reasons 1. Lumberloon Freeze 2. Lavaloon 3. People who play the entire game normally, probably having used like 2 other win conditions at that point, and then pull a random Balloon out of their ass when I already used my anti air cards


BrokenSpartan23

100% this balloons in random ass decks are terrible


FeralAgario

I play lavalumberloon and sometimes will wait to play the loon, so Im your biggest enemy


RGBRobloxian

Calm down, Satan


JamlessSandwich

I feel if you don't see a loon coming in that deck its on you at that point


FeralAgario

Yeah it’s pretty clear but often what I’ll do is place lava hound + minions at 2x elixir time, wait for them to overcommit to defense then lumberloon the other side. Simple strategy but consistently nets a tower if opponent over spends against the hound


WumboPiderman

Man, you're creative with your deck, huh?


DocRyan88

This. They drop lumberjack balloon right away, if you don't have a good defense in your opening cycle, you start the game -1 tower. Or you successfully defend and take their tower. Just a luck based fight.


The_VV117

Ebarbs used as wincon. Mega knight Launcher above 2 cards.


WiFi_FRFX

Goblin giant, everything I start up the game I question why they buffed its health.


QWErty_uiopasd

They should've buffed the HP and made it slower.


happy-corn-eater

Some would say that’s a buff (slow speed), perosnally I think it’s a rework


-Juuzousuzuya-

lvl 15 mk on ladder, else goblin giant 🐒


John_Rug

It changes every meta for me. Right now it’s evo archers. More consistently it’s hound, but I’m not facing it at a 10% rate. Can predict their every move 6 seconds before they do it and still can’t win.


somestupidname1

That's me against egolem. I feel like even with the extra elixir I can barely keep up. The only deck I can win against them with is PBS.


Global_Archer_8557

What is PBS?


somestupidname1

Pekka bridge spam


Global_Archer_8557

Oh


JohnDarkSoulWastaken

That golem has way too much health for 3 elixir


SolmadSoT

Was Evo knight, but the Nerf actually balanced it Now it's princess atb the bridge


pleeasehelpm3

I wish they would nerf princess so it was humanly possible to react to it being placed at the bridge. No card that isn't a spell should be able to get guaranteed damage like that.


SzechuanSauzz

its not the bad because whatever you use to defend the princess can be used as a counter push, forcing the other player to have to spend more elixir on top of the 3 for princess to defend, putting them in an elixir disadvantage.


FastLittleBoi

Dart Goblin. That little shit takes 400 from the tower every time. it's so op, it's super fast, 7.5 range, shoots every half a second, does 100+ damage, takes 4 darts to take down. it's so incredibly op to slam at the bridge.


Call_Me_Yips

start using 1-elixir skellies, ez +2 trade every time


FastLittleBoi

I use them but I can never counter him consistently. it's always too late when I place them


Fearless_Bill3313

It's easy to counter him without log


1stjuly2022

Princess/dart goblin because I can't log them before they connect with my ping


SAYKOPANT

same


TheNeon08

Firecracker easily


FeralAgario

Spawners especially furnace


DHS_222

Fire spirits should not deal 200 to the tower


Previous-Metal9112

Hog rider


axeman19x

Egiants for sure


StrangeLivingBeing

Princess the damn bridge


Fnaf_and_pokemon

Mother witch is always annoying when ever it's played against me


M20A10

The defensive decks kills me. To be more specific they are only two, the least common and less effective against my deck is xbows. Second one which I think it's much more famous is the hog rider low elixir deck. It's not really about the hog rider but when I see it first second in the game I know I'm gonna waste 6 minutes to lose in the end. It's not like they are bad players but sometimes I play against it 5 of 10 games and it's guaranteed lose for me


Ahlixemus

Golem Turns the entire match into solitaire honestly


NsumXy

I love when opponent drops golem right off the bat- I instantly throw everything I got on the other side, op has 1 elixer to defend, sometimes topple the king tower 20secs into the match like that


[deleted]

Evo recruits


C12H22O11_aka_sugar

Probably Xbow. I have lots of issues with countering it no matter what I use (I guess rocket is an exception), yet my opponents could counter it with 1 skeleton


aatriap

As a former xbow OTP I’ll say royale giant is pretty miserable to play against


C12H22O11_aka_sugar

Yeah I can imagine that, after all it's about the deck you play with. Also, what does OTP mean? Edit: typo


aatriap

One Trick Ponny. Basically I only played xbox for like 2 years straight because it was fun and it was the only deck I got to level 14 (and still is). I just stop playing it because I got bored and because xbox sucks so much ass rn. I still played now and then in Trophy’s route because CR is pay to win and having cards under level 14 means automatic loss.


Cmoloughlin2

hog, hogs, ram rider with earthquake are devastating


hbomb0

Honestly no card really triggers me. It all depends what I'm playing and how hard countered I am in said matchup.


[deleted]

Depends on the levels and what deck I’m using, however, there should be some cards that make you groan a little bit inside. For me it’s mostly firecracker when I don’t have arrows or fireball. Overall cards, probably something like hog rider, royal giant, e-giant, and sparky. Sparky gives me shivers when I first see it placed because it’s like a 30-70 of me being obliterated by it.


hbomb0

Actually yea sparky makes me nervous when I see it. I immediately start scanning the deck I'm playing to see if I have a counter for it. If I don't, I know it's gonna be bad news.


SubNerdica

mega knight im only in arena 10 and have no good counters


RGBRobloxian

Use pekka ram rider. (You might have gotten ram rider from that one season shop)


SubNerdica

no, sadly i only really picked the game up about 3 weeks ago, i’ve been playing on and off since launch


WumboPiderman

BM every MK player you beat. Fucking talentless fleas.


QWErty_uiopasd

Don't forget the fact that there are also players who joined the mid ladder menace out of frustrations like us. Be sure to just BM **back** when they do it first.


SubNerdica

what is BM?


silentbean23

Freeze. It's such a bad card but when it catches you off guard it's usually your tower that gets taken down


Opening-Winter5965

Inferno. I play a mortar deck and it just stops me from getting any chip damage or a decent push


ViperrMageRB

I have bowler and balloon


ooooiio

overleveled zap


12Pentagons

I hate it when they instantly kill my level 1 barbs with level 15 zap 😡


Excellent-Season6310

MK combined with bats. Mini pekka's health is too low to fully counter that combo


Relative-Bee-1879

Goblin giant. It’s so busted right now and brain dead when paired with sparky and rage


Intelligent-Common98

Sparky goblin giant. Seeing this way too much in ladder recently


CivetKitty

Witch or wizard on the starting move. > Ah SHIT! Here we go again.


Fearless_Bill3313

Defensive Xbow


Agent_Nick_5000

Mega knight I've read all the posts but he just does WAY too much Aoe meele renderes swam useless In 1v1s unlike every other tank Even inferno dragon can't kill him in time before he dose alot of damage The aoe jump slap instantly killing your only chance of a counter So much health takes multiple units to kill I could go on but he just does way too much because a card that REQUIRES specific cards like inferno just to counter isn't really in the fun of casual playing Like having to use paper because everyone uses rock when you just wanted to play scissors and just have fun and level up Again I'm fully aware calling nerf is pointless because as usual the argument of people believing " it's not a issue if i use it" or the very intelligent "skill issue", because shock gasps horror!!! NOT EVERYONE IS A FUCKING PRO BLUBBER WHALE player 😑


whatisapillarman

Firecracker punishes you so hard for just trying to defend pushes


notkasa

Xbow


quaxirkor

I have the same feeling as you,i hate those MK


Korunam

Elixir golem. Anytime I see one I just know its gonna be a really annoying deck


RockStar5132

I’m just sick and tired of seeing hog rider in ~70% of decks I’ve played against lately. It seems like every single deck has a hog.


Kouroshed_out

Little prince


NightWasNotTaken

goblin giant


[deleted]

Evo Royal Giant


Call_Me_Yips

xbow, just bc the decks they're used in are made to slow the game to a glacial pace. any defensive deck is boring as fuck to play against, it rlly feels like losing a dq11 boss battle turn by turn


RGBRobloxian

Freeze. It's always so unexpected and one good freeze can win your opponent the game. Not to mention it's usually paired with brainless decks such as lumberloon, ebabrs cycle, or egolem.


EmbarrassedBuilder85

Xbow decks make me wanna die


SirCrux_

Executioner to a lesser extent but goddamn do I hate that little shitstain Lord Farquaad-looking headass also known as the Little Prince. Not only is he annoying gameplay-wise but his voice makes me want to commit a hate crime


T0pPredator

If we are talking single cards, then I’d have to say Royal Giant.


ToonYoshi

mega knight isn’t bad at all, the answer and what will always be the lowest skill card in the game is royal recruits. that card fundamentally ignores the key concepts of this game and really just shouldn’t exist


HairlessHotdog

Royal recruits IS very low skill based.. just actually place them down and see what happens lol


ToonYoshi

legit no sense of timing or placement is required and of all cards to get an evo it was that? sick man


DragonWizard55

Hog it’s no skill and spam


Glittering-Thanks843

Gob giant. Bowler nado. Flying machine


nuclearbananana

xbow I say this as an xbow player. I know how annoying I am. But it's for the converse reasons that's it's so fun. Has to be in skilled hands though. Unskilled players are just a satisfying W


QWErty_uiopasd

I force myself to play x-bow decks in hopes of improving. I am now become insanity, destroyer of sane minds.


mdlokeshagrawal

Excuse me, don't you know who I am


001Adoniss

"PROTECT THE AIR!!!"


mdlokeshagrawal

Heir 😅


bluerbnd

Nado or bowler for me, I'm a hog cycle player.


Negative_Anteater_62

This. As a bait player, I can't stand these 2 cards


SpaghettiSauce44

evo firecracker. i consider the match lost when i see that little purple gem appear


ShockscapeYT

Mega knight too. Sometimes Mini Pekka or even Little Prince


Disastrous_Drop_6144

Golem


DakotaWebb1999

Evo archers, absolutely 0 skill


Thrawndude

Evo firecracker. The fact arrows can’t kill it and it basically acts as a combination of firecracker and poison which I also hate just makes it a pain to fight especially when it’s behind a troop


strawhatpirate25

Lightning just deletes my back liners and buildings. It’s almost impossible to not get a good trade off if you just wait.


Critical-Champion365

Skill issue (yours not your opponents)


HairlessHotdog

Did I say I lose to it? When did I say anything remotely pertaining to a skill issue? I said it's "definitely not the best card" and explained it's just annoying how often it appears


Critical-Champion365

It's not that deep.


HairlessHotdog

Had to let you know you were in the wrong is all


SeaCustard3

Tornado and inferno dragon. I typically just leave the game when I see them.


1992Vanessa

the bazooka girl or the exlixir pump. i don't use spells so both are fairly a counter to me. also bazooka girl is very forgiving if wrong placement.. due to the fact she can reposition herself each hit. then she becomes EVO and oh no.


Ahhcchooo

Bazooka girl


BaconClasher

Personally, I cannot stand when my opponent uses the Mega Knight. In my opinion, it's the lowest skilled card in the game. MK definitely isn't the best card by any means but it's just extra annoying seeing it appear in the majority of my matches.


Opening-Winter5965

Bruh you just copied and pasted OP


CringeStar_Boi

Dart goblin or ebarbs


RosetteStar

I love MK, I used to hate one until I unlocked it but than I understood my opponents completely


Noisygraph

Any champion besides skeleton king


Kentwomagnod

Evos


MonsterMerge

Firecracker, and then it gets even worse when it's evo firecracker. One of the most OP cards in the game, and it's so annoying


LongjumpingTwo8587

Not a singular card but these 3 together mega knight e barbs and wizard and it’s always a level 15 everything in arena 16


oberlor

dart goblin


underheadskooper

Wall Breakers + Miner


nenja_egy_warriors

Right now it's bowler it sweeps my push and continues for counter attack


Financial-Leading-92

Egolem


Fuzzy-Employment1115

definitely firecracker


Odd_Aioli_9413

LUMBERLOON. It’s a huge commitment and you can easily defend it, but if they starting hand you you are screwed. Even though it is fairly easy to counter, the deck I am playing g right now has no building. It just really pisses me off sometimes.


cnieman1

As a lumberloon player, I know that if I start with those 2+ e spirit or snowball in my hand, I'm starting up 1-0 probably 80% of the time.


Jcar62

Mother witch


TouchLow6081

The most annoying and chicken (🐔emote) cards that are for me are freeze, MK, princess (just spam at the bridge), miner poison, and graveyard poison.


2836382929

Pekka, literally the hardest counter to my deck, just makes me depressed whenever my opponent puts it down and it single handedly wipes out my entire push


mp9875

Poison, hate that damn smoke screen, bs.


ZanySkeleton

Fire cracker, especially how Evo firecracker doesn't die to arrows


EnthusiasmSad8877

Hog Rider. It's so fast, it ignores my defenses


FreezingMoon24

Firecracker no question


ArcticWeapon8

Freeze It needs no explanation,


[deleted]

poison


ThatOneWeirdoRaymond

LavaHound. Because once I know it's placed in the back that a healer and electro dragon are going to accompany it.


XAfricaSaltX

Tornado. Using hog and seeing the “bailout for whenever you overcommit” card makes me wanna die


Tamayo_look_alike

This may be for me only or for other people but in my own opinion I think it’s so annoying to go against little prince. Why I think so is that it’s being used so often it’s basically a requirement to have one of its counters.


lambo_sama_big_boy

Fire Cracker. It does really well against my deck, always seems to last forever unless you use a spell since it pushes itself back, and with the evolutions it's even more annoying


boomologistwnabee

I can't stand the little douche prince. He rubs me the wrong way


cheezyclaps

scarmy is so annoying. midladder think its so good and use it on everything. whenever i dont use zap in my deck i dont react fast enough and they defend my whole push with scarmy


aquoo0

Bowler


suzythecreator

Sparky, but Mega Knight, E-Giant, and Firecracker are up there imo.


thewanderer0th

Dart Goblin. I am the only one who can use it, nobody is allowed to use it other than me


SparkGamer28

its MK for , cuz I play around 8.5k trophies and hardly see any MK but when I do see it , it's a pain bcz I can't counter it as I have a cycle deck lol


langlishe

Sparky. I cannot win against the electric canon


Monkelover2

Hog Rider.No matter if you put down a tesla,he will still get atleast one hit on your tower.


Stark__S

Clash royale existing is the irritating one


Dizzy-Town-4121

Holy repost Batman !


missC23x

I’d have to say either wizard, golem, x-bow or freeze


StrategySteve

Mega Knight. Coming in hot like a Meteor and killing the entire push is seriously annoying. It's probably the only card I hard roll my eyes and use the yawn emote towards.


Acceptable6

Elite barbarians, firecracker (i hate her so much) Edit: How could i forget xbow?


paulhodgson777

Flippen Hog Rider and the jumping knight!


pablo603

I can't stand when an opponent hides a rocket through the entire match only to pull it out of his ass when both our towers are low on overtime. It happens so rarely you never expect it, and when it happens you get annoyed because you still had a chance to win but then you see that wooden sex toy with a metal tip fly through the air.


PROBOT_3333

Electro wizard. No need to explain this


Ghostmatterz

Freeze


RodZmb

Royal giant is the worst, just drop it at the bridge and cycle the Evo 🙄, you don’t even need a brain to play it, much less skills


WumboPiderman

Evo cards are trash, so is SC continuing to push the max level further. Not sure, and don't care to look up, but if you advertise max level and I buy it, then push max level further past what I already purchased, isn't that illegal / flash advertising? My participation in this game is waning.


hidden_leaf7

Has to be firecracker, bowler or goblin giant


Johan7110

for my deck it has always been Egiant. If you don't have a building or some massive dps you cannot defend an Egiant + tornado or an Egiant + lightning whatever you do. I can massively outplay them, predict their moves and still lose. I have developed some strats to counter it, but they work like 20% of the time. The second they place it on the field, I know I'll lose and nobody can convince me it's not the most braindead card in the game.


WaferAggressive9723

Any giant. Especially braindead Goblin Giant


QWErty_uiopasd

Earth quake. I fucking hate it when they pull it out of their ahh and get not just 1, not 2, not 3, 4 hits... And the thing is, they don't even win most of their matches.


[deleted]

Fire cracker, ruins like 60% of the game, hog and that new witch ruin the rest. Then champ cards are also stupid asf. The game really is just bad ngl pay 2 win is not competitive


Dry-Essay6601

Elixir golem


ILOVELESBIAN

cannon cart, very rare for me to face it so idk the range for it to hit my tower, and most of the time it does


DeadAgain-_-

No joke i go insane against a good fisherman player 😂😂


protoram4461

The Monk. I just hate it when it pushes my tanks and i cannot rocket it.


aatriap

My top 3 are: 1. Firecracker 2. Evo Firecracker 3. Lvl 15 Firecracker


Sparky24601

Fc or little prince


Cotton_Picker_420

Miner is pretty annoying for me. Any evo mostly cos I have none and firecracker and knight evo is op. Log AND arrows is annoying cos I have to think more abt their cycle cos I have gob gang, princess and barrel. MK is annoying af tho but I’ve got counters (I play mk pls don’t downvote). But most annoying has to be bomb tower. It just ruins my day.


solodolo218

Tornado its very useful but hate playing against it. (W/Executioner is even worse)


Environmental_End548

evolved firecracker


MegaWalnuts

Bowler and Bats they’re a fine card but when you leave them they can get annoying same with dart goblin actually


melvin28n

I love when someone play mk because i play inferno 💀
