Hey guys, it's Ash and today I want to share what might be one of my most interesting and in-depth Clash Royale strategy guides.
Top 50 Clash Royale tips for you
As a huge fan of the game, I love discovering new strategies and mechanics, so in this video I'm going to share many of the most interesting strategies, secrets, tips and tricks I've learned over my time playing this game.
I am sure you will find many of them very interesting and I can guarantee you that not even the best players in the world know many of them.
1. Let's start with the basics. You can use a building-only troop to pull enemy troops to another lane, allowing your two arena towers to do a lot more damage.
2. Against an area attacking troop, you can use a high HP troop to distract them from one side while safely using your low HP troops to kill them from behind.
3. Or you can use a swarm map like Goblins to surround and kill the splash attacker.
4. With a long-range attacker like the Musketeer, you can use it to shoot down the threat on the opposite lane and then place a tank in front of you to counterattack. This is very useful when you need to counterattack on the oncoming lane where the arena tower is weaker.
5. If you immediately use a Pekka or Mini-Pekka on the middle square here, you can completely prevent a Hog Rider from attacking your arena tower. Placing your Pekka or Mini-Pekka elsewhere will give the Hog Rider a boost.
6. You can actually only counter a Mega Knight with Skeletons and Ice Spirit and move it to your King Tower. Counter a 7 elixir troop with only 2 elixir and activate your king.
7. And yes, this also works with other troops like knights or princesses.
8. One of my favorite ways to counter a major threat like a Pekka is to kite her with Ice Golem while she uses any ranged attacker, even weak Spear Goblins, to safely shoot the Pekka while she's distracted. You can see I managed to completely stop the Pekka with Ice Golems and Spear Goblins without them touching anything.
9. Another popular way is to use an air attack when kiting, since of course the Pekka cannot touch an air unit. And after killing the Pekka, I can make a very powerful counterattack while my opponent has spent 7 Elixir on the Pekka.
10. Never dash vertically into defenses with your bandit as this will make them vulnerable to the first attack. But the most interesting thing is that here the opposing bandit will align its sprint towards your bandit in a split second and this will allow your bandit to attack first and win the fight without taking any damage.
11. If you use the bowler immediately when the shadow of the goblin barrel hits the river, the bowler can kill all 3 goblins at once.
12. If you place your tombstone right in front of the king's tower, you can actually knock out a Mega Knight completely.
13. Deploying your Goblin Gang on this space is the best way to counter the Mega Knight:
14. There are so many great things you can do with the Tornado card. You can pull a balloon to the king's tower by placing tornado accurately when the balloon approaches.
15. What's less known is that you can drag an ice golem to have its death damage activate your king.
16. Even less known is that you can use Tornado to draw a royal giant and have it attack your other tower instead. This is very useful when your opponent is just using their royal giant to knock down your weaker tower to victory while your other tower has more HP.
17. A smart player will use Tornado to pull your miner to his king tower and activate it. To avoid this, make sure you deploy your miner on that safe space so Tornado can't drag it to the king.
18. Of course, the best counters to Mortar and X-Bow are tanks with high HP, but with Tornado you can actually pull those tanks back behind the arena turret and redirect your mortar or X-Bow onto their arena turret.
19. If you use your goblins like this immediately after your opponent has played Goblin Barrel, you can actually stop all three goblins and take (almost) no damage.
20. If you use your electro wizard while the goblin barrel's shadow is passing the river, you can actually stun all three goblins.
21. Similarly, if you use the Mega Knight in this way, you can kill all 3 Goblins at once without taking any damage!
22. If you say you've already used your fireball against something like barbarians and your opponent then plays Three Musketeers in a Lane, as a last resort you can use your balloon's death damage and The Log to stop those musketeers from destroying your turret to destroy quickly.
23. You can use Tombstone to completely block a blast furnace and the fire spirits from touching your tower.
24. Since Spear Goblins cannot kill skeletons in one hit, you can also use Tombstone to block a Goblin Hut.
25. You can also use Tombstone to block a princess and prevent her from moving forward as long as the Tombstone is in play.
26. And similarly, you can completely block a mortar with the tombstone. The Tombstone has many unique and useful properties.
27. It is better to place your tank in the middle on the opposite lane of the mortar, because not only will this distract the mortar for its entire lifespan, but you can also ignore it completely without having to counteract it. Of course, if the giant gets too close to the mortar, the mortar can shoot at your arena tower because of the blind spot.
28. It's best to deploy your archers right in front of your arena tower to counter a goblin barrel. This allows your two archers to block two goblins, so you only take 1 hit from 1 goblin.
29. If the giant skeleton manages to lock onto your tower, you can use a troop that only targets buildings like the ice golem to redirect the giant skeleton's aim to the ice golem and have it follow it, which also allows you to prevent from it to be hit its massive bomb damage.
30. Zap has so many useful properties. One of the sneakiest ways to use Zap is to redirect the Arena Tower's attack to the Graveyard Skeletons, allowing your Mega Minion to deal massive amounts of damage. You can use this Zap redirect strategy in countless ways.
31. You draw threats like Battle Ram or Giant while avoiding large radius spell cards like Poison or Lightning by placing your Tombstone or Inferno Tower up here.
32. You can completely stop a Goblin Barrel by pre-deploying your Dark Prince behind your King Tower.
33. You can face the bandit and activate your king's tower at the same time by splitting your archers and then pulling them to your king with an ice spirit.
34. By placing your rocket and goblin keg this way at the same time, you can hide your goblin keg amidst the rocket's fire. However, this is not 100% untraceable, because if your opponent does this, you should always look for the shadow of the Goblin Barrel, as this would give them away.
35. If you don't have a counter for the Inferno Kite in hand, it's best to kite it away.
36. If you place your Battle Ram on the 3rd space from the river, you can kite and deflect and move the Mega Knight to the other lane without taking any damage to your Battle Ram.
37. If you know your opponent has a splash attacker like Wizard or Executioner, you can position your miner in this position to distract them while your minions kill them safely.
38. If your opponent decides to use something like a Pekka to distract your oncoming troops by placing your miner behind the turret, you can pull the Pekka back to allow your troops to lock onto the turret.
39. A very important fact is that a single balloon can be stopped by simply dragging it in this way with a building like a tombstone in the middle. Aside from the balloon's bomb damage, there won't be a single hit on your tower.
40. When you align two buildings this way, you can actually drag the balloon to your king tower and activate it.
41. Hog Rider has many useful defensive traits. For example, use it here to distract the Splash attacker while your minions safely kill the Executioner.
42. Or you can retreat a troop and allow your arena tower to deal more damage to it by making your Hog Rider jump over the river.
43. You can even use a hog rider to distract a bandit and then use an ice spirit to draw the bandit and activate your king.
44. In fact, by using your skeletons and ice spirit in this way, you can not only counter the bandit, but also activate your king tower.
45. When the Royal Giant captures your tower, you can place a building on it to redirect its aim to the building instead.
46. By placing a building like a tombstone two tiles in front of your arena tower, you can not only distract the royal giant but also allow him to pass the bridge and shoot your arena tower while he is deflected by the building.
47. Placing a building in this position allows a Hog Rider to easily bypass it and deal a lot of damage. But if you move it up 1 tile, the Hog Rider can't bypass it. This allows your Tombstone to completely take out the Hog Rider when both arena towers shoot at it.
48. Since the baby dragon can fly and has range, you can use it to fly over the bridge and in that position safely destroy a blast furnace without getting shot by the arena towers.
