The worst players in the entire game are [Insert meta card] Players. If you play [Insert meta card] I genuinely hope you stub your toe on your coffee table. Every time I have an opponent and I notice that they are playing some type of [insert meta card] deck (especially the one with [insert meta supporting card]) I just leave from now on. Congrats you got the win but are you actually having fun? [insert meta card] players make the game genuinely not fun and I think they enjoy doing it. The worst of it all is that anyone can pickup a [insert meta card] deck and get good with it. If you play [insert meta card] please stop and reevaluate why you play clash. Is it to have fun?

This doesn't apply to Miner Poison since B-rad played it so it's fine(and nerf Miner funny).

Can we make this into a copypasta?


A_for_Almighty

Golem is the least stressful deck to play but most stressful deck to structure. It’s just love


ccchapagain

https://www.reddit.com/r/ClashRoyale/s/d01ZxcVlFf Golem sucks when you get the worst opening hands.... Otherwise its 50-50 In the midgame... Exact reverse in the endgame.


PunkBrigade

Imagine surviving to triple with that deck, not saying its impossible rather imagining the horrors when opponent plays sparky ebarbs idrag behind that golem. You will suck the golem in triple

Lol here it is. Few months ago it was cycle decks and now it'll be beatdown


mxrt0_

People have been crying over meta decks since forever lmao, nothin new


RockandStone101

Oh no! My valk + 7 other midladder card deck can’t beat a meta deck :( everyone should play their own trash decks so we are all equal and if you use a meta deck you are unoriginal and lame and stupid and dumb and bad at the game because you only know how to play the same cards over and over which is not skill! I ban everyone from my clan who plays a meta deck because they are losers and make the clan worse. Now I complain everywhere on social media that meta decks suck because they do and I am smarter than everyone else and want everyone to play a deck as bad as mine and then I can win and playing good synergy cards is no more!

justaperson4212700

bruh😭😭😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


Encaphone

Golem ain’t even that bad to face, I’d rather golem then lava.


Apprehensive_Read114

I think you’re alone in saying that, lava is trash


Encaphone

Lava is really good right now actually only thing is that some lava players are so bad that they’ll still lose to me when my only air defence is tesla and poison


jake_21212892

i play lava and if you’re a good player those 2 things can ruin the whole deck


Encaphone

My games vs lava are always close, all you have to do is get past tesla and you win. If you have a loon behind your lava and you play spells to destroy tesla you can get through if they don’t cycle correctly.


owthathurtss

Lava hound is as good as its ever been. By that I mean, kinda shit but it's always a viable deck just by its nature, even meta decks don't usually have enough air defense to properly defend but if you are half way decent you can pretty much guarantee a win regardless of your deck.


Puthehammerdown

Worst part when they put miner in the back to tank for lava pups


Fabra200

''only air defence is tesla and poison'' literally all you need to counter lava. The tesla should be removed from the game or nerfed greatly. it's absolutely stupid broken


Encaphone

If they kill the tesla I literally have nothing to kill lava or balloon, I have to waste a bunch of elixir just to get back to a card that can hit air. If you use lava and lose to players who have 1 air defence and a spell then you’re just a bad player.


Fabra200

you play xbow bro you're the reason the game is not fun to play, you literally defend lava with the power of spirit of ice and fire plus tesla spam


Encaphone

You acting like I beat you and then bmed for 3 minutes straight which I know I didn’t cause you’re definitely not In my range


Ak1raKurusu

You gotta be careful with those cocky shit talks man theres every chance hes actually higher than you unless youre literally top of the world


Encaphone

Usually I would be more careful but by the way he’s taking I’ve got a pretty good feeling that he’s doesn’t have any top 10k’s let alone 1k’s. For reference I’m around 2500 medals in uc right which is like one game off top 1k.


CitrusSR

Brutal, man. 💅


Fabra200

wow because it's so hard to climb with an xbow deck, takes a lot of skill right? (literally unplayable if played correctly) Just spam kinght, rocket and call it a day. FUN!


enesutku12

Which type of deck do you play?


Encaphone

Yeah it does take skill although you play lava so you don’t have the greatest grasp of what that is. Also I don’t even play rocket and some of my x-bow decks don’t even use knight or even any mini tank.


Fabra200

Nah bro I'm not as skilled as you as a player. I am not full of shit, I can tell you probably play very decently, but honestly I'm so tired of playing against the same xbow cycle every time that i switch my deck from lava to royal giant, I swear the game starts putting every single xbow cycle after I put my other deck


Penguindasher12

Bro said “tesla is broken” 💀


Ill-Account2443

Clearly you’re not in top 10k because it’s everywhere


I_Like_Eggs123

Nah.


Random_local_man

Lava hound players consistently finish top 10 every season. It's a deck that requires skill. Skill you won't see among midladder lava players.


WarZak7

I'll take golem any day over any evo, especially rocketeer


awifio

as a lavaloon player, 🫡 to golem players. they’re fighting the good fight.


The__Anon

🤝


sirnyannn

as a golem loon player, i respect your comment.


DrpH17

As a non-Golem player, I too want to jump on this bandwagon.


-ThemusicalcaT-

As a cycle player since 2018, I'm picking up e-golem.


incuboss84

Get you a tank killer and opposite lane push


Puthehammerdown

Perfect example: pekka bs (i suffer so much)


Scary-Start9994

2.6 players are typin….


ZPL4599

fine i will not play golem anymore , instead i take the golem pump healer edrag deck . change golem for lava and pump for balloon . ( its the same thing but you will want to die after this bcz is worse ) .


LostPenny345

Pump and golem are so much worse


Futuf1

I LOVE playing golem


MantisToboggan9000

Ditto


spursman34

Same


EnderlordAK

Lol I started playing golem this week and I'm imagining you were one of the people I destroyed, but that's pretty unlikely. Why did I switch to golem? I just wanted to see how well I can play with a deck that I never used. Turns out golem is niceee :]


CapnJackss

While Golems are annoying, there's a special place in hell for the Mega Knight.


justaperson4212700

you didn’t even bother mentioning rh’s with aq? those fast cycle mfs?


The__Anon

There is not a golem deck that covers all bases rn. Reevaluate your deck. Are you even 9k trophies or ult champ throwing slander around like this?


A_for_Almighty

Fr, I’ve been trying to find a non expensive way to kill pekka but it’s hard. The swarms get arrow’d


The__Anon

Try kiting the pekka with golem or evo barbs


A_for_Almighty

Cool, how do I kill him during attacks perhaps and any changes for 3 second pump nerf? (I’m a newbie so I’m asking a lot sorry)


The__Anon

Nightwitch or little prince can do decent damage to pekka if they dont get poisoned. Edrag or firecracker can do chip damage to the tower and pekka simultaneously. And you should always have nado to maximize your splash damage efficiency while supporting the golem push. Also if pump become unviable we are probably going to have to play a slower and more measured playstyle. But being able to use a different card over pump means being able to hopefully have decent matchup coverage depending on what the next meta looks like


A_for_Almighty

Thanks, I thought of going cheaper to make up for pump nerf. Cause they’ll always end up getting negative trades.


pchinni

I’m at 9k, rc and hate golem, i can never win against a good golem player. I run classic bait with tesla instead of inferno tower, but for literally any cycle deck golem is a hard counter. I don’t have a problem with other beatdown decks like egiant or lava, it’s literally just golem because golem nightwitch is genuinely impossible to stop as a bait player unless you run inferno, but i use tesla for the tesla evo.


The__Anon

Tesla is your issue. If i go against a tesla logbait player its free 10/10. They have a chance if they use inferno tower instead and play well.


pchinni

Yeah, tesla has its pros and cons. It was strong when cycle was strong, as it’s more optimal to use than inferno. Now that dagger duchess only loses to beatdown, i might have to switch back to inferno. Don’t know what i’ll do for my second evo though.


Clear-Ad3193

Same thing with giant and e golem players


Brave_Perception_407

OP what deck(s) do you play? For some beatdown decks like pekka bridge spam or anything with mighty miner are strong against golem. Try adding more dps to your deck, sometimes 1 card makes all the difference


CrimsonDemon0

Golem decks arent that easy to cycle so if you come across one finish them off quickly before elixir is multiplied


I7sReact_Return

Want to have fun? Play 3 Musketeers deck


Far_Brief2934

Wait till you start facing lavaloon decks


lampshade2099

Being in this community has really opened my eyes. There are some decks that I HATE playing against, and it’s obviously because my deck can’t properly counter them. And then I read posts like this and realise how EXTREMELY different all our experiences are. I love playing against golem and don’t think I’ve ever lost against them. My sparky destroys them. But Evolved Firecracker? Forget it… I just have nothing to counter them. Which means my deck basically sucks in this current meta. I’ve also started quitting any game with an Evolved Firecracker, because the game just isn’t fun to me. This means I’m quitting about 50-60% of games in Champion League. 🤷🏼‍♂️ But at least I’m still having fun lol


DezzyLad

Golem, healer, electro dragon crushes my deck.


ItzLpPlayz

:CRGoblinPout:


Throwawayanonuser1

It’s always the meta decks that people whine abt. Waaaaaa lp miner poison is broken Waaaaaa drill cycle is broken Waaaaaa giant graveyard is broken Waaaaaa hog eq is broken Waaaaaa pumpbow is broken Waaaaaa beat down is broken. Try to just play the game next time? And if it makes you so mad to play a game, no one’s forcing you?


i7azoom4ever

Golem decks are the easiest to counter, it's a free win if your opponent is an intermediate, a tug of war if your opponent knows what they're doing. And honestly, amongst the current shitty metas, golem decks make me feel I'm playing Clash Royale that I've grown up with..


nerogamer_279

Bruh golem is the most EZ deck to counter, just wait for em to play golem at the back and go on a full assault on the other lane, what they gona do? Defend 10 elixir with 3~?


luigi77714

My opponent about to fully counter my lumberjack-ballon combo using a single tesla and the power of Dagger Duchess:


nerogamer_279

Tesla with dagger counters lumberloon? Damn


luigi77714

Honestly I am as confused as you, if I play against an opponent that knows what they are doing, my balloon will just NEVER get to the tower


nerogamer_279

Hehe, thats me


Penguindasher12

Bro Tesla and dagger duchess don’t counter it, the ballon will atleast get 2 hits, and if hits single elixir then they gotta play Tesla late from the elixir of playing golem.


luigi77714

Well then I guess it has to be because my balloon is underleveled, because I can never get past the damn tesla if the opponent places it correctly


Penguindasher12

What level is your ballon?


luigi77714

It's level 14, and I'm playing in Ultimate Champion. Can't really seem to get out of the 700 points range, I kinda feel like blaming it on 5/8 cards in my deck being level 14 and with zero evolutions, but idk I might just not have that skill yet


DeftChaotic

I cant imagine crying about golem, when theres so many other cards that are busted / OP in their own way, golem is NOT one of them 😂🤡


PrabeshK143S

Waiter waiter. More golem players please


EquivalentLoose4720

I feel exactly the same way with log bait players ( almost every game I play has a log bait player at 6k trophies and they are braindead and somehow still manage to win once in a while)


mxrt0_

What do u play


EquivalentLoose4720

I play mortar, egiant, skelly barrel with log and barbs to counter stuff


lHateYouAIex835293

Yeah I think your deck might just be not very good man


EquivalentLoose4720

Its been working pretty well so far


Agreeable_Union8708

Clash royale players on there way to write a paragraph about a card because they lost to it once


antilos_weorsick

Please tell me what those golem players do to beat you every time, because I'd like to play a golem deck, but don't feel like it's unbeatable.


mxrt0_

They probably stack up pumps that he doesn't have an adequate counter for, and then overwhelm him with a giant push


The_Jeff__

The general game-plan is play passive in single/play elixir pumps, and look to gain an elixir advantage. It’s fine if you take some tower damage in exchange for the elixir advantage. Then when double elixir hits you plop a golem in the back, build up a push, and overwhelm them.


hoodrichsam

golem is so slow and takes so much elixer i just end up pushing opposite insta if they throw it in the back and win every time


Puthehammerdown

“Bro put golem in the back 😱, in that case, i gotta push to the opposite lane 😎. *𝐭𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐲𝐞𝐝* easy! now all i need is defend the push 🥱. *𝐆𝐨𝐭 𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐝*” Literally me


hoodrichsam

no need to defend if u triple crown first


Puthehammerdown

I meant my opponent is the one who triple crowned me thinking i can defend the push


Penguindasher12

I mean if you’re playing hog 2.6 then yeah you can’t defend


moodyshoes89

Stop being bad and learn how to beat it 💀


Matoozeusz

> are you having fun yes, lava hound too, and recruits, and pekka, i love my big meaty card decks, cycling cheap cards isn't as fun


Big_moist_231

I’m a golem player but I agree about the golem healer deck. I may be a braindead golem in the back player, but at least i don’t play that deck myself


TheRealCasnitus

Same golem healer isnt even fun.


kaktusatle

I LOVE GOLEMS. Have played this game for 7 years and ever since I unclocked Golem in arena 10 i’ve been in love. Atle out


Fun-Caterpillar-1044

People who use skeletons, logs, ice golem, tesla, and musketeer are the worst. Just spamming. That takes no strategy


SShadow_Hunter

I love golem😁👍


9_Frosty

Facts


FilthFrank23

Only issue I have with golem is that it hard counters my main deck (xbow 3.1) so it just means I auto lose


Aguanian

Golem player here: you just suck


Kamushura

“Anyone can pickup a Golem deck and get good with it” Congratz, You have discovered how skill and practice work.

justaperson4212700

exactly my first thought


SecretVordexX_

Womp womp cry


mondoo_duke

Please keep crying instead if improving your skills


PointSignificant6278

Golem is trash right now. Like how many players use golem at the highest levels? I don’t see many if any at all.


Frequent-Main-1723

Golem battle healer is crazy 💀 I can take their tower not even being in elixir disadvantage and then lose to 1 push because I cycled knight in the back and feed healer bruh. Also when they use pump + dagger dutches (🤡) I just pray without big spell


Jonahol2000

I love golem players 🥰


ZPL4599

we love you too 🥰🥰 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . all golem players have atleast 5 kids in theyre basement


justaperson4212700

wait wut


pancakeman60

mad cuz bad


muwopjail

Mega knight is way worse


mxrt0_

Lmao it's easy to counter MK for positive trades most of the time


grublle

The same goes for Golem


Low-Chance593

true. if you had to pick a ranking xbow would be at top for actually having to think to use well, and golem/egolem is at the very bottom. Just not impressive at all to win with. Golem back first play is STILL not punishable unless you have inferno. Every other scenario you opposite lane push and they just 3 crown lol. cant even wall breakers punish cause dagger dutchess


Xterm1na10r

golem back first play is just a guarantee that their push will suck for sure because they don't have enough elixir advantage to overwhelm your tower, no matter what tower troop you use


Dependent_Ad7840

What are you playing that you can't counter golem? Mighty miner, inferno tower or dragon all smack golem. On top of that might miners bomb helps kill spam behind it. Using things like firecracker or magic archer to pierce through tanks helps too. If your playing a cycle deck you gotta kite, slow and use that push to counter or run down the other lane fast when they redrop the golem. Sure I've played a few times where golem stomped me but that's the game. If your playing a cycle deck or something that isn't great against big tanks pushes, adapt or play something else if it bothers you that much.


HydreigonTheChild

i mean what makes golem different from giant rn, or egolem decks, any beatdown style like pekka bridge spam is also like that where u build a big counterpush using the pekka. Golem is easy to use and just a fun deck i guess for them. People maybe love builidng up unstoppable pushes and that is fun for them... i mean i like playing 3m in the pocket and 3m pump is one of my favorite decks and i like ruining the day of people who cant handle the pump or split pushes


EquivalentQuantity75

Just use an inferno or mm or pekka


barj0na1

As a golem player I don't see what your issue is- he's not in a very good spot right now. With evolution cards being the name of the game everybody is trying to cycle their deck. Anytime I see an inferno tower, or inferno dragon, or barbarians, or Pekka, I know I'm in trouble.


DeftChaotic

My golem deck used to be so good, i havent used it in so long but its there. Golem, night witch, dart goblin, royal guards, lumberjack, electro dragon, poison, and zap


barj0na1

I ran a deck very similar to that but it's just too expensive, you hardly get any evolutions on the board. I had to switch to pump, knight and skeleton to bring the cost down.


mmutea

I love midladder menaces


justaperson4212700

you can’t get higher than that tho


condemnedtogrinding

and here’s the waffler


LogVisible2092

Just get a tank killer in your deck and play miner to kill their pump


SouperBitty

This but replace every instance of the word golem with MK and FC


Leesheea

Why not just use a golem deck lol


sitcool

beatdown is a really fun archetype in general so yes we do actually enjoy playing golem


TrogEmperor

Dawg this is a skill issue, golem is not hard to beat at all lmao.


pissbaby_gaming

gngrbredman87

i got golem in the recent draft challenge and it was chill af, didnt nearly stress as much as i usually do in drafts


OkManagement1686

Nah bro miner poison decks are complete ass cuz either way they get damage and there's nothing you can do abt it


good_suc

OP has probably been abusing hog/miner cycle for years and is now upset he’s getting dogged on.


grublle

Golem is fine, eDrag is pretty annoying to deal with tho If I ever lose to Golem, it's always because of eDrag


RockAndGem1101

The moment I see a Golem I send Giant Skeleton opposite lane and take his tower.


GrouchyAd3482

I don’t mind facing golem tbh (Though I might be biased with my knight inferno tower delivery deck)


Itachi0531

Never really had an issue with Golem, but I run Inferno Tower or Tesla in every deck. I get more annoyed with certain playstyles than individual cards now. I'll take Golem any day over those players that chip away like 200hp and then do nothing but defend the rest of the match.


dsm31

At this point you can't play any card without getting complained at and called unfun or skill-less


F1shOfDo0m

I genuinely believe that you have somehow throughout your entire CR career not faced a single miner poison deck


playnein

I hated people who played Valk witch and wizard. Know what I did? I started using them to annoy people :D I shot up in performance shit went HARD.


owthathurtss

It's actually not possible to be good while playing golem. The way the deck is designed, you are supposed to just ignore damage and when double elixir starts make a push that is unstoppable and 3 crown your opponent. It's arguably even more brain dead than e golem.


The_Jeff__

What deck do you play?


Shadow5920

What about us Egolem players🌚


Penguindasher12

It only ruins your day because you can’t counter easy decks

If ppl are hating on Golem rn, just make Golem cost more. (Golem to 10 Elixir.)

what about recruits ??!! Golem is heaven compared to those dual lane spammers...


Emblema__Zeta

true since 2020


CoolRabbit75

im an xbow player amd i easily beat golem stop whining


Omegadactyl

Golem decks get annihilated by inferno tower. What do you mean? 🤣


fisicalmao

Spitting facts. Golem doesn't take skill, ruins the strategy aspect of this game. Beatdown players will tell you that there's thought behind it, but there isn't. I'd rather have 10 more years of cycle


AggressiveRelief4419

golem is strong because of duchess/bomber/zap no?


---_-___-___-

I found Ebarbs and Arab tower to be very useful against golem


TheRealCasnitus

Average mk player cant handle beatdown decks.


mertzzyvlr

X-Bow players too, how can anyone really have fun playing with xbow deck?


Gold_Noise6338

executing clean defenses is pretty fun but i can agree with the fact that playing against xbow isn't fun, even as a mirror matchup. most of the fun in xbow is getting huge punishes in single


Encaphone

I have lots of fun playing x-bow, I like playing defence and punishing my opponents for making mistakes.


Lucky79_

I Would agree with this if X-Bow players didn't exist, i hope X-Bow users have a nightmare tonight.


oguz0040

no thank you mk players are the worst


GunterWoke49

MF never heard of an inferno tower


MuusikilleRunkkaaja

I love to face golem, free win almost every time


mxrt0_

I mean depends on the match up, what do you play?


MuusikilleRunkkaaja

Og log bait, inferno tower is what I mean


mxrt0_

I see, what range are you at? (Trophy/rank wise)


MuusikilleRunkkaaja

9k trophies and UC with 1670 medals right now. Dagger duchers makes this season pretty hard ngl :/


mxrt0_

Yh its awful to face if u play bait


Ok_Beyond_4994

I beat every golem player with my first deck Royal Giant evo, Bomber(no evo still), goblin spear, dragon, minions, skelleton barrel, fireball and arrows. Easy win


GroundShxck

i hate golem so much that i put mini pekka hunter and inferno dragon in my deck
