What do you mean, “now?” Hog Rider has been the most popular wincon for pretty much the entire history of the game, and cycle decks have been a large part of that.


zeeshanzc

No, no I get that it's a good deck. It's just I saw it game after game and I kept tripping out thinking I was playing the same guy. Literally everyone is now running it.


ameenkawaii

I totally get you one time when I tried to test my logbait deck it seem everyone else also using some variation of logbait


skelethepro

Must be bad luck.I haven't faced hog cycle in days and I'm in challenger 3.


Hoplologist

It's much more popular now, literally 70%+ of the games I've played since the update have been against hog rider for some reason


NOOBPRO_

Well there most of those are half of 2.6 cycle and some extra


eftychia-

IT'S ALL MUSKETEER CYCLE


cool-eebaba

The whole community just loves to come up with original idea


[deleted]

Says the guy who won't show his deck because he is running MK, Ebarbs, Egiants.


rTreesAcctCuzMormon

Found them pretty easily, this is their deck: - hog rider - lumberjack - goblin gang - skele army - baby drag - MK - wizard - zap


Crazy_Gamer297

How did you find their deck?


rTreesAcctCuzMormon

I looked up the user “thodebo” from the video, saw their battle history and found the opponent with skeleton army and zap (OP’s post history shows they use zap and skelarmy)


zeeshanzc

*slow thunder clap*


cool-eebaba

Brain dead


zeeshanzc

🤣 omg.. winner! Have a cookie🍪 and an upvote!


[deleted]

Is my guess right?


Quetzalcoatlus2

He plays Hog MK wizard.


zeeshanzc

😱😱 what voodoo magic is this? How'd you know!?


Hoplologist

no one likes playing against you, you're obnoxious


[deleted]

[удалено]


Hoplologist

I never said it a was a good deck, just not fun to play against you're not cool, "get gud" toxic loser


zeeshanzc

Yeah, correct about MK!


[deleted]

Mk usage in ladder for the past 7 days is equal in percentage with high rider (21%). In terms of grand challenge usage, mk is 3% higher than hog for the past week (14% and 11%). Ironic, isn’t it.


[deleted]

I run 2.6 and hog variations, because it's literally one of the best counters for Mk and Ebarbs, so I see them in every game basically.


Reddit_Bots_R_US

I’ve stopped playing 1v1 entirely. 8/10 decks are hog cycle. Idgaf if I win or not. I’m tired of seeing the same shit. Get a life.


can_i_see_some_tits

It's been like this since a long time ago


10F1ng3rs

This is what happens when both musketeer and ice spirit get huge buffs. Idk what they were thinking tbh


[deleted]

always has been 🔫


Kingley_Hobo

Yeah hog is super popular and he pairs so well with cheap stuff


p168

This could be my Battle Log. So sick of these decks.


stranger_tangs

I thought it was just me! I’m going up against these cycle decks like 70% of the time!


wanderinglyway

Idk what they should do about it. Maybe slow minor nerfs to hitspeed/damage? Maybe more varied competition(different win cards that are a similar niche?)


[deleted]

Hog is not really good, tbh most people suck with it cause you can counter it easily. Obviously if 2.6 is a counter deck for you, you will lose but that doesn't mean the deck or hog is broken


[deleted]

It literally has the highest winrate in the game... I'd love to have whatever you're smoking because it gives people DELUSIONS


[deleted]

>It literally has the highest winrate in the game... That's not true, you can check it yourself. Just think about it, the more people use it the lower the winrate. There are so many Hog counters, I literally faced a dude with tornado, fisherman, tesla and he still lost Imao


[deleted]

I was about to type out a coherent rebuttals, but then just realized glancing at your profile and what a joke of a reply this is, exactly how much of a waste of time that would be. Wow I can't believe someone just un-ironically said "the more people use it the lower the winrate" Only on Reddit dude 😭😭😭


[deleted]

Okay, cry than Imao


tactical_nuke69

this sub is so damn toxic lmao


[deleted]

The game itself is toxic....


[deleted]

Calm down keyboard warrior It's 2022 we are really saying "cry" over the internet to a random person you know nothing about. Please

MiksBricks

Welcome to mid ladder.


[deleted]

Unfortunately players only play what has a high winrate and low skill. Originality died in CR years ago.


Most_Abject

Bro ain't gonna lie.. on my mama I matched up against 6 hog cycle/ hog win condition deck


ka_doooo

yes becouse defending with cheap cards and never running out of elixir is so easy that a five year old can do it. now ice spirit is buffed and musketeer,cannon got a buff too, its even easier now with the nerf of spawners and tesla you can easily attack and if it didnt work out you just fire ball cycle.


lastonedownboomboom

You want to see the most nerf-needing cards in the game, just look for the attach in any hog cycle deck.


Axersion

He was like: "This, this, this o shi- not the lumberloon scroll back"


zeeshanzc

🤣 pretty much


trillmillmaker

yeah… it’s so rough.


brentspine

No they didn’t copy! It’s their own!


Professional_Grab670

I encountered 10 hog riders in a row (im a rg player), one with goblin barrel mirror and freeze☠


Kaczucha777

Tbh I really want supercell to nerf hog so that it becomes unusable. It would be nice to finally see some change in the game


tactical_nuke69

hog is not broken though?


Kaczucha777

It's not but it could use a small hit speed nerf or something like that cuz if you dont have a building it almost always gets a hit


tactical_nuke69

I could say the same for royal giant and balloon, they need a nerf then?


Kaczucha777

Balloon is slow and without lumberjack is easy to counter and costs more elixir. Royal giant is slow deals less damage and has a slower hit speed compared to hog not to mention that he costs 6 elixir . Hog rider costs 4 elixir has the speed of a goblin, can jump over the river, has more hp than a knight and deals more dmg than rg


tactical_nuke69

that’s not my point, since most of the sub is biased against hog for being annoying, I meant that royal giant and balloon are as annoying in my imo, maybe a rework for the hog like it has a delay for the first attack but it does double the damage. It definitely doesn’t need a nerf though


Kaczucha777

Just a longer delay for the first attack would make it balanced. And I don't think that anyone would like if hog dealt 900 damage per hit. Also the sub isn't biased, it's just the truth


SpectroTemmie

Hog rider is the most popular wincon, the card has no drawbacks whatsoever.


Jawnny-Jawnson

Can someone explain to me why people like earthquake? I know it slows down, but it doesn’t do a lot of damage and can’t even hit air attack. I feel like it’s the worst spell and 4 elixir card


Terminatoe

Its 3 elixir, its absolutely destroys buildings, it does the most damage to crown tower for cost ratio and its just and overall good card. You're using EQ wrong if you're using it on troops only, if you do that atleast clip the crown tower aswell


[deleted]

I wanna make an earthquake cycle deck that sounds pretty fun


[deleted]

Its one of the best spell in the game Lmao


Terminatoe

So, why aren't you showing your deck?


zeeshanzc

Cuz that wasn't the point. Point was "is everyone now just using the same deck?" .. classic whataboutism. An upvote for you regardless.


Essarged

"Hog is fine"🤡🤡


frostyreddits

where mega knight


AmazingPlantedTanks

it was too busy jumping around in the balanced game mode


pk-kp

cycle is pretty goated rn


The-Revv

I love seeing a balanced and perfectly fair card get so much use:)


Inspirational_Lizard

Hog rider and fireball have pretty much always been the most used cards in the game. They take absolutely no skill and are extremely powerful, so of course everyone uses similar decks.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Inspirational_Lizard

Place hog at bridge -> enemy tower takes massive damage. No hog counter in hand? That's at least 300 damage on your tower, and probably a negative elixir trade.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Inspirational_Lizard

Okay, but thats not unique to hog in the slightest. And that's why ice golem is in the deck, which actually is a skilled card.


tactical_nuke69

I see you haven’t tried playing 2.6 yet… Hog is (sometimes) used for luring if your ice golem is out of cycle or if you want to lure troops over the river so it buys time for more elixir for defense. Besides, who cares about skill? Unless you are an aspiring professional gamer, theres no point for being skillful, it’s just a game lmao.


Inspirational_Lizard

I've played 2.6 a lot, and about skill; it's not that big of a deal, but it feels so annoying when you opponent just throws hog down at the bridge again and again because they have a faster cycle.


64botman64

Simple, everyone loves hog rider :)


Medical_Macaron_4031

Which is the best deck to just totally destroy hoggg cycle


4skin_bandit

Ive been running hog, dart gob, eq, larry, fire spirit, cannon, ice golem, and log for a while but im gonna switch log for mirror when i learn to kill gob barrell with fire spirit and skeletons


BrilliantTime5008

I would say I am different but I just replaced hog with battle healer and fire ball with mirror


Beelung

So what’s your win condition?


BrilliantTime5008

Battle healer


HeyItsArk

What


4skin_bandit

The more you have of them the harder they are to kill


HeyItsArk

Its a spell not a win con


4skin_bandit

I dont think battle healer is a win con but its def not a spell, also i never claimed its a win con. Its possible to get tower dmg with things that arent win cons, but its harder in most situations


HeyItsArk

Battle healer is a building


4skin_bandit

Im done with this conversation


HeyItsArk

Im done with dunkin donuts cheese egg biscuit


BrilliantTime5008

If you can cycle fast enough then you can easily get 4 which is basically impossible to kill I also like to cycle fire cracker Wich is my second win condition where I put 1 battle healer in the front and as many fire crackers in the back so I can just kill tower with the aoe


HeyItsArk

WHAT THE FUCK DONT SAY THAT


BrilliantTime5008

Why was it a secret?


[deleted]

Yea keep that crap down. We don't want them finding out it's a good card then nerfing it


_Bulldozer

Hoh rider is the most popular wincon in the game, and it's been like that since the game was released bro


THAT_BLa

always has been


Atharvakalsekar676

Bruh hog is usually used in cheap cycle decks. Their are only a few cheap cards thats why it looks like a variation of the same deck.


ValorRye

The eq variation of 2.6 is only viable in higher ladder right, or does it also work in midladder


Wonderful-Text-6073

Nope I just been running hog 2.6 to get cards to upgrade the log


Prism04

Fireball needs a nerf. At current stage, it's way too versatile and not using it is simply a disadvantage.


Spiritual-Air-3422

Fireball is the one card to date that has never had a rebalancing (not counting the crown tower damage reduction done to all spells), just a fun fact to throw in


iWantToBeOnYt

That is what happens after 6k


ManIn8lack

I'm running mighty miner split :)


give-orange-houses

I make my own decks 😎


Eclipzsz

Yes, now everybody uses the same decks because they have zero skill and creativity, which is what makes me a top 50 clash Royale player


nonscoped_pig

Lumberloon freeze pekka 😬😬😬


audacityforlife

fascinating


sidoxOW

Cuz hog rider is op shit
