What kind of 2.6 main you are? That's so basic. Even x-bow players use it when they go pre placed tesla to push the hog to the tesla with skeletons or else the hog will go straight to the tower.

8:54 if you place your ice spirit 4 tiles left from the e-wiz and next to the river you can fully counter with 0 damage. Place when e-wiz is 1 tile from the bridge. You don't even have to drop it quick.

What’s up man, hopefully your 2023 started off strong. Mines certainly didn’t, but your good vibes are very contagious. Keep it up!

I believe you can hit the bowler with just an ice spirit if you place slightly to the side and a few tiles down. Not completely sure but I swear I just did it today from what I remember

[@_cha0t1c_94]

great tips especially since i main this (but with bomb tower and fire spirit) Love the frequent uploads. ps, u can counter ewiz with ice spirit if u put it a bit further to the left (8:55)

[@shanehill2288]

Jake, what reasons do you prefer skeletons instead of goblins since their buff? Would be awesome and i would love some insights and tips why you do, from a professional.

[@SirTagCR]

faster card cycle in this deck so more hogs, cheaper distractions for OP archer queen & can cycle more earthquakes at end of game to win faster

[@shanehill2288]

@@SirTagCR Thaks again bro bro. Was along the lines of my own thinking. Glad to have pro insight and info. Again, you are the ONLY big KZbin person that has ever responded to comments. Yet another reason you are the man. A lot of old school Royale heads were watching Ash's videos b4 he was a sponsored Royale content creator. Stayed with him even after he was sponsored officially. And then I came across your videos. I still check in with Asher every once in a while, but you are the bread and butter. Keep doing the great videos. I'm not a tech guy at all, so I don't know, but I hope you have built this up enough that you can survive off this loot alone. You deserve it bro bro!!

[@gustavoclemente2671]

Hey tag! U inspire me every day to be a better player, and I want to thank you for it! I was wondering, for those who dont have Archer queen, do you think magic archer would be a good substitute?

[@SirTagCR]

Hey Gustavo!! Glad to see that I'm able to help you become better. Always check the intro for substitutions for any champions I include in decks; this intro said to replace archer queen for musketeer Lots of love & good luck with the deck! Magic archer doesn't do enough damage on defense & it isn't robust enough (it dies to fireball)

[@gustavoclemente2671]

@@SirTagCR it's just that my musketeer is only at level 11, and I was trying to think of another card that could replace it well

You can pull golem with a cannon placement on the opposite side by logging the golem, you have to hit it to where it pushed inwards just enough to pull it

Tip to counter E-wiz completely with an Ice Spirit. Drop it on the 5th tile in front of your king tower on the E-wiz side. It will completely counter the E-wiz.

[@houstong1232]

Hey Tag, what pekka deck do you recommend that can push ultimate champion?

[@moadayesh9039]

Great Jake, in the last match the fear of the Queen filled his heart, so he tried to occupy her as much as possible by placing cannon, musketeer and skeletons, and also tried to end the match in a strange way by playing the Hog Rider, Although I appreciate his level and the way he plays under pressure, He didn't realize, and here is the huge difference in levels between you and him that the Masketer he played at last, as you told us at the beginning of the game, is not the Queen, so he did not take into his account your upscale level and the extent of the passion that you play with. Also, do not forget that you repelled several attacks in which you do not have the canon and got a little light damage, so he thought that he was able to do the same as you, continuing to attack with the Hog Rider, and here he lived the shock, Ithink after this match, he will think carefully about playing the musketeer, and the queen will remain in his memory for a long time... Finally, I want to salute you for this antiquity level which you present to your content, and as you used to, and you mentioned that more than once, that you want to provide distinguished content and great fun through playing and mentioning the smallest details that change the way of thinking of anyone who enjoys what you offer of greatness ... All respect for your respect to your followers. I wish you good luck and happiness always and achieve what you wish.

Hey Jake, if you put enough sweat into the game, how far in the leaderboard do you think you can get?

[@x.kitsune]

This is 1 of my fav decks.. but I swear I always face LH variants or LJ Loon decks when I play it and then it's just a rough time. Its a fun deck the rest of the time but you just feel so useless against heavy air decks since all you have is AQ and not even a spell that can hit air troops

[@williamwilson5833]

That last game shows the musky variant most certainly would work even in higher ladder , the only unfortunate thing was he faced SirTag which is his impending doom ~ PS: that cannon ice spirit defense flex against hog though, perfectly done ~

[@mauer1]

the first and basically only mistake in the last 20 seconds. he outcycled sirtag 2 times with a worse cycle. he was 90% of the game better than sirtag. just that one mistake with the cannon in the end.

[@daddymizu6008]

@@mauer1 this game is about who makes the most mistake or running out of patient in a stalling defense. Whether he is a better player or not , the end mistake cost him the game. Simple as that.

[@White742]

Not really. In fact it's actually that SirTag is pretty average with this deck that he did so well with musketeer. There is no way a good hog eq player can lose to musketeer variant using broken archer queen with 3 card cycle.

[@yesu2543]

I'm an old player coming back to the game; I expected the video to be about 2.6 hog. Is 2.6 hog still viable/used today? Or is it only seen in variations like this one?

[@AndrewChristensen3]

2.6 is still used. It's not as common as it used to be but I still see it on a regular basis.

[@SirTagCR]

**ALL top players are using this deck over 2.6 hog rider. This is the most frequently played hog rider deck by pro players** This deck is SUBSTATIONALLY stronger with the addition of giant skeleton you're a lot safer while having your offense augmented as well. For instance, the giant skeleton allows you to go same lane as big beatdown pushes since when it explodes it can clean up all the opponents supporting cards behind their tank. Also on offense, the giant skeleton will push back units trying to hit your hog with the bomb, it can tank for longer periods of time, and it can eliminate counter-pushing cards. Also archer queen is the best card in the game right now, so it helps the deck A LOT, but if you don't have it leveled up yet, as you can see my last opponent used musketeer instead and it works fine

[@rykerwickens4577]

You’re so happy in all of your videos that’s why I’m subbed 👍

[@tatemansell4707]

Hey Tag, you can actually counter an E-wiz with an ice spirit completely if you drop the ice spirit further away

You can drop ice spirit in the middle of map, right when e-wiz cross river, and you will get no hits on tower, just to know…😊
