The Evolution of Clash Royale Chests

Of course the Tower Troop Chest came out right after this video was posted. 😒
Many chests have been added over the years in Clash Royale. Likewise, many have been removed. This video goes over the history and process of how and why Supercell added and removed certain chests, and the function they provide to the overall game.
CORRECTION: Giant Chests were added on February 29th, 2016 right before GLOBAL release. They were not available at BETA release.
Music List:
Peril - Halo 2
Taswell - C418
Dreiton - C418
Fungal Wastes - Hollow Knight
Greenpath - Hollow Knight
Nintendo eShop (July 2014)
German Dances No. 5 for Orchestra in F Major - Mozart
Unity - Radiarc
The Frostlands - Octopath Traveler
Rosalina in the Observatory 3 - Super Mario Galaxy

I remember getting my first ever legendary from a gold chest maybe 5 years ago when I was in middle school. I was so excited, I told all my friends, my parents, and even my teacher. Good times.

[@frido_lino]

Your videos manage to lend me a sense of nostalgia and memories of a time where everything used to be so different. You’re the best CR content creator out there. The “summonlng salt” of this community. Thank you man.

[@mailcs06]

Honestly, this video made me realize how ridiculously generous the Royale Team was in 2021. I can kind of understand why they backpedaled it a bit, even if I would have preferred they didn’t

[@nickbob2003]

But they didn’t just backpedal a bit, they hit the brakes and went full speed in reverse. I got back into the game in 2021 and maxed out around 20 cards and had all cards unlocked but I stopped playing after the update for losers. I would have kept playing even with evolutions if they didn’t make level 15 even more p2w then it would have normally been and if they didn’t raise the price AND severely nerf pass Royale

[@blueleafy7167]

This is why I loved clash royale in 2021 and I didn't even realize how much fun the game actually was until they added more levels and just ruined the game entirely

[@Karazhan_ir]

A bit? They went so hard on this and made the game p2w. Like evolutions are a great example of that . They didn't even try to bring them in rare chests Just spend money to get one. If u are living in a country that supercell shop don't support that's a huge middle finger for u

[@businessisboomin7252]

​@@Karazhan_ir or if u had a weak currency, that's another middle finger for you

[@foodicorn]

I've been playing this game since worldwide release when I was a freshman in high school and something about these videos is so relaxing. Seeing videos of the old game and knowing someone is showing the newer players how good they really have it. Gems are so easy to get for free nowadays.

Dude I don't play this game anymore but I make sure that I don't miss any of your videos. Your videos are really interesting and I can see that you really love this game and you do a deep research before making each videos. You value quality over quantity which is something rare to see in gaming KZbin channels. And also the music choices you choose are simply brilliant and nostalgic. It might be a bit far fetched to say this but I think I'm you no. 1 fan. I'm excited for the next video you'll be making.

firstly, i liked this video you did a good job on it! but onto what i was going to say, back then when free chests were available, i remember opening one and i got a legendary graveyard card from it. im not sure if this was my first legendary or if i already had graveyard, but i think i didnt have graveyard yet and i literally screamed. i even called my friend justin and he was freaking out with me haha, good days

the ending 'In a memory for fallen chests' was far emotional than I thought

[@Spitts]

I started playing the the first week it released in US. I remember all this stuff and the absolute grind to level cards. The early days of CR were some of my best gaming memories. We had the same 25-30 people in my clan for years and the chat was always active, we became like a big family and would rally to get the clan chest and help each other with replays and tips. Now I don't know anyone in my clan because people come and go so often and no one uses chat. Pretty sad looking back at it now. Also rip tourneys. I used to have clan tourneys every month. Now I have a ton of gems and nothing to spend them on. Bring back tourneys

[@Zgrywus100]

I remember getting my first legendary in a clan chest, it was a lava hound so I didn't use it but still the feeling of getting it was one of the best thing that happened to me in clash royale,

[@fantasticube]

31:59 Fun fact: The Epic Chest actually only looked like this because of a bug. The purple details were just added on top of the giant chest, and since THAT chest was made smaller, they forgot to change the epic chest as well and it looked off.

I'll never forget the princess I pulled out of a free chest within days of being able to find the card

[@justdanny2701]

I think the stat at 6:50 is wrong, it should be even less than 45%. Using a binomial distribution where n = 3, p = 0.152, and x > 0, you get a 39% chance (p(x>0) = 0.390199808 🤓). You can also imagine this as 1 minus the probability of *not* getting a legendary three times in a row: 1 - 0.858^3 = 0.39. Idk tho and honestly it doesn’t matter at all I just thought it was interesting 😅 Also I could just be wrong lmao

Can you do the history of the Valkyrie? She's my favorite mini tank and my favorite card overall.
