xQc Plays Clash Royale for the First Time! 

Now he will truly understand the 8 elixir meme

First Among Us, then Bloons, CR. Aware Mobile “Gaming” Arc

Cant believe i missed it. I remember quitting bc this game made me rage so much once i was on higher ranks. I also got addicted to it. Feeling strong with this one 💪😭

only X can make winning against someone who is AFK feel like a game 7 in the World Series

This was a super fun game to see him play and learn. Hopefully this becomes a recurring game on stream so we can see him climb the ranks

0.5 elixir bottom left

9:01 this part is so iconic

As someone who has played clash of clans religiously since it’s release, played clash royale since it’s release, and have watched xqc since owl days, this did something to my heart I can’t even explain. So beyond happy rn

This is... Variety gaming! Paperplanes. Tbh tho, this is such a fever dream. Never have I expected him to play this game.

I remember playing this when it came out in 8th grade, crazy to see how much it has changed since

I remember playing this in 2017 and I loved this game to pieces the same with clash of clans and I had so many amazing memories with these games I dont play it as much I rarely get on but seeing my fav streamer play it makes me feel happy XqcL

Wow he learned fast i say in a few days he will be e-sports ready PogU

Holy shit that's gotta be one of the funniest streams this year, that was fucking perfect, the malding & coping, chat clowning and supporting lil bro, the GIGACHAD TriHard ing, the clan chat emote spam, everything OMEGALUL

Holy shit my ~4 years of on and off playing this game finally pays off

He lost one game to a basic emoter and reached for the credit card. Epic

If he actually play it offstream and gets to like 3k, that would be actual good content. Malding + Shit talk + Excuse andy

"i don't play shit games like you guys" Also X Plays overwatch 2

It was actually super fun to watch him play a classic

55:19 honeslty xQc's placement here was perfect lol he got prince rush just barely

It would be so fun to watch him get taught by one of the best players in the world

Damn I really hope this becomes regular content

Cant wait for him to discover the rage inducing menace trio that is Electro giant elite barbs and Mega Knights

When he goes full panic mode with the music i get CHIIILLZZZ fr tho this is top tier variety content

The screaming hog rider is the greatest emote ever created in hostory lul

This is painfully entertaining 😂

Whenever he over reacts when winning a match it looks like a typical mobile game ad OMEGALUL

"I'm too good at this game" Won vs Trainer Earl

It finally happened, this was actually amazing content

They added xqc. A goblin cage!

I can’t wait to see him play in midladder

Every time he screams “pay-to-win” or that the game’s broken, I’m just here going “that’s cause you’re reacting, not strategizing” 😔😩

i wanna see him push to 5k

cant wait for him to buy some vbucks

Watching this hurts but it’s fun watching him learn

This is amazing lmao, wish I joined the clan but happy to see he’s in our realm

PogU he finally played Clash Royale

love to see more , grind to the top of the arena do it

16:50 Lmfao the instant someone disrespects

I never saw a video of this game that was this entertaining. This man is awesome.

The very last mobile game i spent a lot of times playing was king's raids, the game was pretty good and BOOBA

all he needs to do is just understand how important placement is and what counters what

Never realised how much I wanted this

16:56 saw that coming lmao

Ayo upload more of this, hopefully he plays COC more gachiHyper

I need xqc to start yelling doogshittt when he wins 😂

47 minutes in and his prince is already a higher level than mine

xqc clash royale arc? count me in

The best way to play this game is knowing how much elixir your opponent has compared to your own. Its possible to.beat ppl with higher tier cards but yes, after a certain point it becomes play 2 win.

He needs to learn about human shields and his damage dealers in the back. And that Mini Pekkas are slow. So using his spear goblins, and his Knight can slow it down. You let the towers do most of the damage.

Spending thousands of dollars on low level holy shit my soul just crumbled watching that 💀

This guy is so impatient he spent 1 gem on a 5 second cooldown chest. Lul

This game really is addicting though, short but challenging matches along with collecting more troops, I remember being so annoyed getting bad legendary troops compared to others that I would get rolled with.

59:44 That was actually intense as fuck

Yeah shoulda upload this on main, blew up and clash royale is pog af

Calls the game trash and bad then gets addicted saying it’s actually good 💀 I honestly think he’d improve if you just went f2p until a certain arena and then put some money in to get legendaries and more variety in cards

man in the beginning i cant watch my eyes hurt man theres a lot to learn but i dont play that game anymore

And as the juicer warlord heard the infamous "HE HE HE HAW" his mind exploded as his pebbles shrunk from the intense anger. He has released something and it could not be stopped. He swept like he never swept before, nothing remaining of the plastic card as el goblino chewed the last bits after it declined. Finally, he has won. The reward chest has arrived! But at what cost?

I play cr and I've never watched him stream anything before but this is high quality content lmaoooo

The problem with this game is it often feels like the algorithm puts you against players who's deck counters yours so that you can't win no matter what

I just love how he already figured out Spellbait 🤣

I am already getting visions of x malding Despair

this guy knows how to clash the royale

As someone who has been playing this game nearly every day for the 6 years it's been out this was kinda painful to watch lol

he's still playing it, actually addicted Aware

When I first started playing this game back in 2016, every match is challenging and it is super hard to reach another arena. Now I just feel like people under legendary area are all bots.

this was very fun to watch can you play more plz

This makes me wanna play this game again even though I ragequitted the game when it was only a few months old.

I wanna see more cr videos from x

DIDNT EVEN TAKE THREE MATCHES TO TAKE OUT THE CREDIT LMFAO

The Hog Rider card is unlocked from the Spell Valley (Arena 5). He is a very fast building-targeting, melee troop with moderately high hitpoints and damage. He appears just like his Clash of Clans counterpart; a man with brown eyebrows, a beard, a mohawk, and a golden body piercing in his left ear who is riding a hog. A Hog Rider card costs 4 Elixir to deploy. Strategy His fast move speed can boost forward mini tanks like an Ice Golem in a push. At the same time, he can also function as a tank for lower hitpoint troops such as Goblins as he still has a fair amount of health. Most cheap swarms complement the Hog Rider well, as they are nearly as fast as him and usually force more than one card out of the opponent's hand. The Hog Rider struggles with swarms, as they can damage him down and defeat him quickly while obstructing his path. Barbarians in particular can fully counter him without very strict timing on the defender's part, though be wary of spells. A Hunter can kill the Hog Rider in 2 hits if placed right on top of it. However, if you place something in front of the Hog Rider, the Hunter's splash will damage the Hog Rider and hit the card in front of it more. The Hog Rider in conjunction with the Freeze can surprise the opponent and allow the Hog Rider to deal much more damage than anticipated, especially if the opponent's go-to counter is a swarm, or swarms are their only effective counter to him. Skeletons and Bats will immediately be defeated by the spell, while Spear Goblins, Goblins, and Minions will be at low enough health to be defeated by a follow up Zap or Giant Snowball. However, this strategy isn't very effective against buildings as the Hog Rider will take a while to destroy the building, giving the opponent ample time to articulate another counter. Against non-swarm troops, it can deal a lot of damage during the freeze time, but this can allow the opponent to set up a massive counterpush. For this reason, players should either only go for a Hog Rider + Freeze when they have other units backing it up from a counterattack, or if the match is about to end and they need to deal as much damage as possible. It is not a good idea to send in a Hog Rider simply to destroy a building, especially if it is the only building targeting unit available, as defeating Crown Towers becomes substantially more difficult. Spells or simply waiting out the lifetime of the building are more effective. The exception to this is an Elixir Collector placed in front of the King's Tower. If a Hog Rider placed at the bridge, he can destroy the Collector for a positive Elixir trade, though the damage from both Princess Towers will usually mean he does not survive to deal any damage to them. However, if the opponent sends in defending troops, it can be an opportunity to gain spell damage value. In a deck with several low-cost cards, it might be worth it to simply send the Hog Rider against one building. These decks shuffle their card rotation quick enough, that they will arrive to their next Hog Rider before the next building arrives in the opponent's card rotation. Long-ranged troops like Musketeer and Flying Machine can snipe those buildings, preserving some of the Hog Rider's health, possibly allowing it to get some Tower damage. When there are buildings placed in the middle to counter the Hog Rider, understanding the placement of the Hog Rider and the type of building placed can help the Hog Rider to bypass certain buildings. Passive buildings such as spawners and Elixir Collector have a larger hitbox than defensive buildings; which means that if a passive building was placed 3 tiles away from the river in the middle of the opponent's side, then it is impossible for the Hog Rider to bypass that placement as the Hog Rider will get pulled to that building. Defensive buildings have a smaller hitbox than a passive building, which means if that if a defensive building was placed three tiles away from the river in the middle of the opponent's side, a Hog Rider placed at the very left or right side of the Arena may be able to bypass it due to its smaller hitbox. If the player has a building already placed down in the center of the arena, and the opponent tries to bypass it with a Hog Rider at the edge of the arena, they can use certain air troops to push the Hog Rider towards the building as it jumps over the river, effectively denying the bypass attempt. They must be already hovering over the correct placement, as very quick reflexes are required to correctly perform this technique. For Bats, Skeleton Dragons, and Minion Horde, they should be placed right in front of the Hog Rider as soon as it is deployed. For Minions, Skeleton Barrel, Mega Minion, Flying Machine, Electro Dragon, Baby Dragon, Inferno Dragon, Balloon, and Lava Hound, stagger the above placement one tile to the right if the Hog Rider is placed on the left side of the arena, and vice versa. They can also use ground troops to achieve the same result. Something like an Ice Golem deployed at the Hog Rider’s landing spot will obstruct his path and force him to go around the unit, which causes him to be closer to the building instead of the Crown Tower. The Hog Rider can kite Very Fast non-building targeting troops due to his own Very Fast speed and building only targeting if he is placed on the fourth tile from the bridge, slightly into the opposite lane. He can also stall grounded units when placed right at the bridge. He will pull them towards him while deploying, and then be untargetable by them when he jumps over the bridge. After landing, he will pull them back. This can be useful when the player needs to deal damage in the same lane they are defending. It will also help separate troops behind a tank in a large push. A Tornado placed on the second tile front of the player's King's Tower and staggered two tiles towards the Princess Tower will activate it without any damage dealt to the Princess Tower, helping them in defending future pushes. This can also be a method of mitigating all damage dealt to a Princess Tower, but doing this more than three times may result in the King's Tower's health being low enough to be targeted directly, opening up the possible threat of a back door three crown. A better alternative is to pull the Hog away from the Princess Tower into the attacking range of all three Crown Towers, which will negate all damage as long as none of them are already distracted A very powerful combo is the Hog Rider, the Musketeer, and the Valkyrie, typically referred to as the Trifecta. The Musketeer will defend against most troops, while the Valkyrie can protect her and the Hog Rider from swarms or high damage units. The Hog Rider is used to deal damage to the tower. This can be effectively countered by Lightning, one-shotting the Musketeer and severely damaging both the Valkyrie and Hog Rider. The Minion Horde is also effective, but the enemy can Zap them and the Musketeer will one-shot them all. Even if the Musketeer is defeated, the Hog Rider and Valkyrie will have enough time to severely damage the Tower. The Hog Rider should be placed behind the Valkyrie to give it a boost so that it stays in front of the Hog Rider, protecting it. A Hog Rider combined with a Goblin Barrel can be awkward for the opponent to defend against. Timing it so that the Hog Rider is tanking the tower shots for the Goblins is the most effective way to deal damage. However, a Barbarian Barrel can shut this down with minimal Tower damage for a positive Elixir trade, as long as the Goblin Barrel was placed directly on the Tower. Pairing the Hog Rider with the Balloon can deal devastating damage. If executed properly, the Hog Rider will act as a tank while the Balloon threatens to deal massive damage. The Hog Rider can also destroy any buildings attempting to slow down the combo. However, this combo is very vulnerable to swarms and anti-air cards as neither of the troops target anything but buildings. Additionally, they are easy to separate, due to the disparity in move speeds. Alternatively, the Hog Rider and the Balloon can be played in different lanes to spread the opponent's defenses thin. However, a building or Tornado can bring them back together for an easier defense. The Hog Rider can be paired with the Lumberjack as both a swarm bait and damage combo. It is a very fast combo with an extremely high damage output potential, so the enemy will likely try to counter it with a swarm. If this happens, use a spell like Arrows to render the opponent defenseless. If they manage to defeat the Lumberjack, the dropped Rage will make the Hog Rider even more dangerous than it normally is. A fast and deadly combination is the Hog Rider and Mini P.E.K.K.A. combo. Both units are fast but the Mini P.E.K.K.A. does much more damage and does not attack only buildings so the Mini P.E.K.K.A. can deal with troops like the Executioner and Musketeer. However, this combo can be defeated with swarms like Skeleton Army, which will defeat both of them since neither of them can deal area damage. They are also unable to target air troops, so the Minion Horde can stop this easily. A risky play is to deploy the Hog Rider at the bridge as soon as the match starts. If the opponent does not react fast enough, the Hog Rider will deal a significant amount of damage to the Princess Tower. This can also allow the player to quickly scout the opponent's deck if they happen to react to him fast enough.
