How Mega Minion SAVED Clash Royale

[@gastonEGGS]

It's always interesting to listen to how any change to a game with troop interactions domino's its way to affecting every other card in the game. I think that the sentiment about the mega minion is just as you described, unhated and balanced. Always look forward to new videos, as they make great background noise for while I'm playing clash royale.

[@lurientheenjoyer6711]

I don't play this game, I haven't since like at least 2018 or something. I don't really care about it either. But my god, the way you present all of this information, how you construct the whole narrative, it's so fucking appealing and interesting it's seriously amazing and infinitely commendable. Keep up the great work m8

[@diegocosta493]

I used to hate it when it was released because it felt too strong with giant (I remember the meta being giant poison) and it even could survive a Fire Ball. They nerfed MM after that and since then it feels a pretty balanced card

[@blackheart4360]

I miss those good Ole days. Giant pushes. Not just random non skilled random 1 hit hog (who still needs to be 5 elixir) cycles for 6 years straight. nowadays everyone just plays firecracker. Who also needs to be either 4 elixir or die by log. Lastly, atleast during those days. We had draws. Which still I don't understand why they removed a whole deck arch type (draw heavy decks) to please those non skilled players.

[@gamersreactions9267]

​@@blackheart4360 i agree with most of your comment, but hog is decently fair if firecracker would be balances. And draws were not a good thing. When i was actually tryharding i played xbow and either won, or played to a draw. Losses were so rare if you piloted the deck correctly

[@Crispy_DAWG]

I can’t for the life of me use mega minion. I try, but the range nerf made it feel horrible to play. It’s also why I can’t really use Phoenix either

[@blackironwalterkus3851]

@@blackheart4360giant is no skill

[@blackheart4360]

[@sethmeaseles3301]

It's kinda crazy that this game is on such thin margins that a tenth of a second can make a tower go from balanced to broken. It seems like such a minor change but it always has massive consequences.

[@sk_555]

I personally always enjoyed using the Mega Minion, it feels extremely fun to use and acts as a very solid single-target high DPS air card. I'd say at some points in time, it could've been considered the most balanced card in the entire game. Sadly it's overshadowed by many other cards at this point and doesn't see too much use rate (mainly just Little Prince honestly), but I'll always love it!

I remember using mega minion in my gs clone deck for years, it was so good for keeping air units in check while also being a really hard hitting boy. And then I switched it out for phoenix when it got released, and then I switched it to skeleton barrel when that fit nerfed :b

[@angrypigs009]

Do history of Splashyard/Graveyard. A card/deck midladder players think is underpowered, but top ladder players think is broken.

[@MhmtEumer_]

I am a consistent UC 2000~ medal player (definently not a "Top player") and i think that splashyard is not broken but its annoying cuz of the randomized behaviour of graveyard. Sometimes even if you poison it it will get like 5-6 shots which roughly means 650 damage. Miner and drill is considered to be annoying for the same reason.

[@BuckFieri]

Can you do a video about masteries? To me, it appears like supercell wants us to forget about them. They haven’t added tier 3 masteries to most troops, and in the past year they’ve nerfed rewards, taken away post-game stats and recently taken masteries out of the cards menu. Now the only way to see mastery progress is by the mastery button in the deck builder or in the troop badges, both of which aren’t sortable and thus, difficult to navigate.

[@danboru_bakooo1966]

[@gerardoledezma4126]

Mega Minions is my favorite for how perfectly it does what it’s meant to, while also looking pretty cool. Deserves a buff tho, preferably to a melee instead of its range, especially considering that there’s melee troops (Pekka, Prince) that have longer range. This would at least allow it to work against Monk and Evo Knight

[@gamersreactions9267]

Mega Minion is the GOAT. Nowadays overshadowed by Phoenix in the decks that used it, but it was my favourite card back in the day. RG Cycle goes hard

[@ChristopherYost-fm8jd]

I don't know why but I remember Mega Minion being extremely strong at it's release. I thought it attacked as fast as minions did or a tad bit faster (at the beginning of the video). It needed a nerf because it was used so well on attack and defense. I think it should be the same but have a fast movement speed. It gives it a chance to hit long range targets or get closer to king towers. It's a card that you don't play alone so spells like fireball or splash troops like Wizard still takes it out pretty easily.

[@teodorterzievski6877]

I actually use mega minion in pekka brigespam, and its absolutely amazing because of its high damage against balloon, with it in my deck I pushed from 6000 to 7800 in only 2 days, yesterday I even got it maxed out, i think its right now even better than the pheonix

[@starryknight7700]

Could you do a deep dive on the tesla history? Its very unique for a building. Able to hit both land and air, deals good single target damage, immune to spells if you dont have it targeting a unit, HAS AN EVOLUTION, and last a pretty good amount of time. I personaly hate this card for how good it is on defence, able to deal with all unit cards on its own outside of somthing like barbs.

[@GavinReis]

Hey Gratz, can you do a vid on the goblin cage next? btw, minions as a whole should be a short ranged, ranged card

[@stevendemel5869]

Rework idea: Make the mega minion have two attacks and split the damage evenly between them. It would make the better at countering swarm and it wouldn't kill itself when against Monk. Maybe make the spit do damage and make the throw a slap. This might help it stand out a bit more and maybe compete with the pheonix a bit more.
