Hi everyone,
Since the beginning of the season I got up to 2500 fairly easy, but after that I just got stuck playing against loong and echo. How do you play against them using empress? If i get past round 4-5ish I mostly win, but most of the times I just get smashed around round 3-4 or in later rounds by the lvl 4 echo even though my troops are spaced out enough.
I mostly use a combination of ace, assassin and noble traits, but when I use the tank and allstars it doesn’t help much either.

Man I always try to go for some fancy comps... Then I cycle a bit, end up with musky knight lvl 2 and 2 people going for superstars and think to myself.... Fiiiiiiiine.... Here we go again 4 nobles 2 ace xD I swear like 80% of my games I end up with nobles.🤷

art by me

bro what hes ruler just takes out 3 units instantly and continously wtf is that

Rules:

Cards can be from any season. However, it must be in its current state, or if it was removed, its state at the time of removal. So a card that was previously broken but is now trash does not belong in the "broken" category. You must consider all stars of the card, so if a card is exclusively broken at 4-stars, they don't belong in the "broken" category.

Zero elixir cards are anything spawnable or part of a trait. Examples include skeletons, skeleton dragon clones, buildings, and echo sage. Trait dummy is a 0-elixir card, but you cannot specify which traits the dummy has.

Due to there only being 4 5-elixir cards, one box has been removed, however I will decide later which box will be removed based on community consensus.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions for edits and improvements!

- Round 1 : buy any 2 cards. Don't think about placement since the game already does it for you when you buy one, so there is no need to make things more difficult for you.

- Round 2+ : buy shiny cards in shop.

- Shiny cards represent units that match your current traits. Traits are useful because they enhance your units. Very shiny cards represent merges, you're maybe already familiar with this one. A merge completely upgrades your unit but once again no need to overthink it to win your games.

Bonus : Watch a movie or a Youtube video while you're playing, because you might get bored of making 2 actions per round. So keep playing to easily reach top 10k and even top 1k.

loaded in and wished supercell would add a quit button to this😔

The sage hate here seems to be confined to *mostly* Empress users (that just go for GK/assassins every time). First off, there's a reason SE dominates top ladder, if it was really that OP you would see them everywhere at 3,500+ and I rarely see that.

SE has an elixir advantage, does that not count for something? lol Just confused, there's some sort of advantage to every ruler, if anything Duchess and Warden need some sort of buff/rework because they're not that great but kinda tired of hearing SE players think they're entitled to win every time because they choose the sweaty cycle to win ruler but Sage sometimes counters them so they cry.

As someone who likes to play around with all the rulers I don't think Sage needs as big of a nerf as I see here, maybe hp? or how it restores hp when leveled? sure. But stop complaining how it can splash troops out of the game at 4 stars the way it does when you're sitting on 6 3-star troops from your elixir merge advantage and GK (most broken card in the game) is chain one tapping everyone else in seconds.

If you don't get to 4 star sage by round 5 or 6 you are basically cooked so that's a pretty big handicap, meanwhile SE is always able to capitalize on elixir advantages throughout all rounds.

Personally my go to setup is GK+Stab Goblin, Giants, Musketeer & Gob Machine. Currently sitting at 3279. And idc who I’m up against this is what I’m running, I’ll try to get assassin early if I see an echo or throw the game/ use goblins in the first couple rounds.
