How Royal Giant Ruined Clash Royale

The Royal Giant has been a very polarizing card in Clash Royale history and has had many problems that go far beyond balancing issues, which has caused Supercell to make drastic overhauls to different aspects of the game. Expecting a nerf, this video was postponed, but with the developments of evolutions and other shifts in the meta, it's unlikely that will happen! Here's the entire crazy history of this once mid-ladder menace!
Music List:
Baroque II - RuneScape 3
Taswell - C418
Ruin Tower (Dead Sea) - Chrono Chross
Alpine Incline (Ground) - Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze
Northern Kremispheres - Donkey Kong Country 3
Tarir, the Forgotten City - Guild Wars 2
Dreiton - C418
Flake - C418
Forest - The Last Guardian
People complain about me while there's this tumor waddling around midladder.
I complain about any card I I can't beat Especially the credit card
You are the menace of midladder bruh

If u can't defend mk u lack skill
Supercell also has an in game tip which says: “All cards are created balanced. Even Royal Giant” 😅
“All cards are created equal, even Royal Giant” I think that is the actual tip from the game
@@Error-ff5rgbalanced and equal kind of means same thing

@@S_0.2 Well, no.
Wizzard is op af in mid ladder it’s the most annoying card it needs a nerf because it counters my baby dragon and skeleton army’s
The problem was the very high punishement cost of misplacing/mistiming a building. If you failes, you may have wasted up to 5 elixir for nothing. So while it was not a problem for competitive players, it certainly ruined the day of lower arena players. This change was perfect , as it not only fixed the timing problem, it also made connections with it decent enough to warrant a new playstyle at higher levels.
Yeah good point but nerf miner
Yes but literally every card hasthis if you do a Big misplay
@@krallakrulla971 the main thing was that royal giant outranged tesla and inferno and they couldnt do anything, against golem for example the buildings could do something
IMO that's probably their most perfect balancing of a card, making it decent in top ladder, without being menacing in mid ladder, it luckily escaped the faith of the ebarbs and the wizard
Thinking about it, ebarbs got replaced with another ebarb
They just needed to lock card levels to king tower lvl

I'd like to see the clone spell history, I think it will be interesting to see how over the years it came to now
I think that the clone was really similar with the mirror in terms of balance where it was trash then randomly op then trash again
@@NotDeinut with clone it will be quite the same, and also he could talk about glitches like the drill glitch or the recent goblin giant glitch. Also his history would be interesting bc it was never a meta card, besides from mirror
@@federico8744ram rider glitch?
WHAT WILL HE EVEN SPEAK ABOUT BRO SEARCH THE ENTIRE INTERNET CLONE HAD BEEN NEVER NERFED OR BUFFED
@@hamodyabas1179that doesn’t change the changes that happen to its viability.
14:36 that sound sent chills down my spine
Lol the ptsd
Hahah hell yeah man..... When you put skarmy and opponent zaps it Leading to EXIT 😂
Gives the same energy as the Guardians from Breath of the Wild
what you hear before a princess tower gets obliterated
Yeah The Elite Barbarians are scary if not dealt with and joining alongside the Royale Giant is even more terrifying, and if super cell lowered both of their elixir by one it is over for clash royale
Royal giant is the mid ladder menace that I’ve been waiting for you to cover!
this card was the reason why I quit clash royale, strategy was no use since 2021.

During RG hell, I remember being carried so hard by the royal giant to the point that I ended up loving the card more than hating it. It's so simple but so fun to use anyway.
I picked up Royal Giant during that time because I hated xbow
this dude puts so much love into these videos, they are SO informative to the point I watched one or two and I want to play this game that I stopped playing years ago, I watched 1/2 videos so far after I got recommended the mega knight video yesterday but I fully plan to watch them all, great work Gratz!
One of the best things of this channel is that he actually lists the music he used in order in the description
I think a history of the skeletons would be a nice video. Considering the skeletons are included in about seven cards I think it would be funny going over how overly easy or how overly complicated it was to balance them
The amount of times they’ve switched between having 3 skeletons to 4 skeletons is hilarious
spear gobbos would be even more interesting imo. especially given the disparity between goblin giant at the top and goblin hut at the bottom
Even though I've stopped playing CR, these videos are fun to watch and look back on.
Man your videos are so high-quality, I've watched all your videos at least twice now beacuse they're so entertaining! Keep it up!
Ik bro his vids are literally so good and there is something about his voice that I love
@@shockedwooloo6723no I'm better
This video really opened my eyes to the fact miner needs a nerf
Yo Gratz, I love how quickly you uploaded this time! Keep up the good work
Seems as though, overall, this card has gotten a happy ending. One rework turned it from a polarising card that was completely useless in competitive but overpowered in ladder into a perfectly balanced, healthy card that saw good use in both competitive and midladder without being overbearing in either.
Still remember the first time Royal Giant got buffed, he made me reach legendary arena. Always top 5 favorite for me
What does mean to reach an achievement if it wasn't by your own strength but in the one of an external help
i reached ultimate with goblin drill and miner switching between both decks when they were literally the least used cards. But sadly the achievement is still the same no matter the deck@@cheesecake1255 😮💨
@@cheesecake1255 ...but that's how Clash Royale works? You just use cards, that are normally viable, to reach the top of the ladder.
@@DragonSkylander30Fellas are insulting somebody for using a good card, instead of the shittiest deck in history 😂
@@DragonSkylander30 yeah, hahaha, it is just lame
Wow two videos in a week, you've really outdone yourself Gratz! I love these!
i dont know what it is but i love this more indepth informational history videos about videogames, even if i dont play them. its just so interesting to listen to someone who is pasionate about a game who tells you the interesting story about a card, a map, a track or whatever. i love you content and i will continue watching every video you release. please keep this up man
Will we be seeing a video on the Gobin Giant? Id love to learn the history of that card!
Love these videos! Pekka video next would be cool! Or history of pekka bridge spam etc
This video gave me PTSD. Thank you for summarizing the non competive experience of dealing with RG so well!
Is a video on card evolution something to consider? I'm curious to see your perspective on it since it probably could've been a great addition to the game had it not been for level 15, Elite Wild Cards and Supercell's new hyper-monetization approach with updates like the pass "rework".
It would be interesting to hear his thoughts and have a bit of a retrospective on evolutions. Though right now the mechanic is new enough (compared to everything else gratz has covered) that it's still worth giving it some time to see how they play out.
Evolved rg and firecracker break the game in half
@@LucyWest370 Evo Firecracker? Yes. Evo RG? No.
To be honest the truth is there is one card that is objectively broken as hell with it having 0 counters and only way to beat it was to use it. Especially these days this card is becoming so meta that it can almost be considered mandatory and that card is the infamous Credit card
Dude I love your videos and I can't believe you have only been making videos for less than 2 years. You definitely deserve my sub
2 Gratz vids within a Week?! this made my day
Still advocating for a history of the Knight. I wanna see how good my favorite card is! Also great job as always 👍
never even played clash royale but there’s something about your videos that are just entertaining to listen in the background
U really present ur vids In a intresting way dude.. love ur vids and keep it up
love the videos. i really like this style of video going over the history of something in a game. your channel reminds me of a different channel called false swipe gaming which does a similar thing but with pokemon instead of clash royale cards
I remember this channel just came out of nowhere and released some good videos.
These videos are PERFECT for background noise, but I still can listen to them. Love this style!
Very nice to see another upload so quick!
Clash Royale is truly a "perfectly balanced game with no exploits"
I found you again
im starting to believe this man's actually a robot
@@YTInnerAgntAutoi am very worried
@@YTInnerAgntAutoit is
19:29 MOM, I'M ON THE VID
lol
Royale giant outranging every building is just something else
Gratz, we love you. Take of your shirt
i don't play royale anymore but listening to stories about mid-ladder royale always makes me laugh 🤣
Gratz: "How Royal Giant Ruined Clash Royale" Also Gratz: Uses Royal Giant
14:19 fun fact the prince was a rare and the mini pekka was a epic
This is definitely my favourite win condition especially more fun after his evolution even tho he hasn’t been meta for a while
Can't believe RCCH ruined clash royal
RCCH?
@@Anmk-be9tfRCCH is pvz youtuber, he have roual giant in the profile picture
Lol
How did I never notice that that was his pfp
Your videos always make me think back to my highschool days when I would play this game a lot for most of it, how excited I would be for updates, the discussions I would have with my friends about it, how angry I would get over losing a single match, how toxic I used to be, and I just want to go back in time to tell him to take it easy and enjoy himself, be more outgoing, don't care so much about what people might think about you, and to not play so much Royal Giant, cause it's toxic and annoying
Every time i see your videos,i just feel like playing clash royale again,and then i face people with diamond pass and lvl 12 skeleton giant when mine is lvl 8
I was not expecting a new video this fast
I love your music choices for this video
As long as royal giant has that drip, he will always be my giant.
this came fast wow and I've been waiting for this one too nice :)
I remember when EBarbs came out and I started using them to counter the Royal Giant and it was pretty good at doing that. It was even better after the buff but it didn't last very long...
2017 me when I'm told to just outskill the RG 4 levels above my cards 🤯
Everybody: oh God the rg Is broken! My inferno tower *my honest reaction song starts*
He used to outrange inferno tower lol
Yes, i know, but i almost always used to get him in and the ice spirit/inferno
14:16 mini pekka and prince sitting in the corner: 🙇🏿♂️🙇🏼♂️
I think a history on the Tesla, Zappies, or Sparky would be pretty cool as the cards where always interesting like how the Tesla can hide from spells or attacks and Sparky being a charge troop
I can confirm as someone who hasn't played the game in years seeing this evolved RG almost gave me a heart attack
Do lumber jack please I feel like that thing dropping rage when it dies is going to cause a controversy
I discovered your channel about a week ago and it is amazing!
I must be tripping out of my mind. I swear to God I remember RG having such a long range that the RG could siege hit the princess tower without the tower hitting RG.
Damm these uploads are quick!
Thanks that clears up an unresolved issue, I didn’t know I had.
Can you do a video about firecracker. I feel like it would be an interesting story
He's only doing cards released before 2018. The only post-2018 card he's considered was Elixir golem.
Firecracker: Misunderstood to Overhated to Just Hated! Elixir Golem: How to Turn Trash into Unbalanced Dumptruck, no offense Drewbian
Royal Giant always seemed so volatile in the community’s, you either see people praise him, or want his head on a pike
Istg any midladder player complaining about meganight who hasn't faced the MONSTROSITY of royal giant and ebarbs paired together will never truly get any respect from me, because they wouldn't even last a second against a 2016 midladder menace player.
I love your content bro. Never stop.
"A cards rarity has never been changed before" mini pekka: am I a joke to you
💀
ok super mini peppa i get it
Mini Pekka was changed?
@@arielcevallos8188 yea it was originally a epic
I remember playing RG and E-Barbs. Best deck I had till I was able to upgrade my fav cards more recently.
2 videos in one week ?! Jeez, you're putting in the work
Bro can actually put me to sleep with his videos and that’s not a bad thing
evo rg is practically unbeatable it only takes 1 time to get it
This guy is like the false swipe gaming of clash royale
love the c418 in the background
i quit when evolutions were added but i still love watching your videos and reminiscing of the old and better times thank god the royal giant is terrible
Sameeeee
Something wrong with "A broken card in mid ladder makes it balanced if its not broken in top tier" is that sometimes thing counter it. for example quagsire in Pokémon in theory it should be mid but people love to use it and it does counter some of the great mons in its tier (at least in some earlier gens) if one dealing huge single target damage is good in top tier then tanks will fall and swarms will rise.
Can you do history of splash yard/graveyard I would love to see that?
Keep up the good work. Your doing great
You are my new favorite KZheadr. Keep up the great work! ✨
elixir golem vid would be really cool. its a really fascinating idea for a card
I was there when the rework happened, and he is still my main win condition since then, love the card.
Yo finally great job man
17:00 Didn't the PEKKA have a 3 second deploy time at this point, or was this after that change?
I rember that time even when the RG was absolute trash i still wondered why a ranged gaint was common while all the other royal type cards where of higher rarity
I’d love an episode on the spirits, especially the fire spirit who I’ll never forget was fire spirits at first
Fun fact. Mini pekka and Prince have changed rarity. Mini pekka was an epic and Prince was a rare. This was VERY VERY VERY early in the games history though
bro the minecraft music is gonna make me cry
sooo good vids keep up the good work
Do a video about Flying Machine and Graveyard, please!
Bro your Minecraft music background makes me so nostalgic and sad
Fun fact: A military version of the game (a big plagiarism) had made its own version which was literally a combat helicopter (yes he fly 🚁) which could fire from 7 tiles. The card is present in half of the decks, the other half being practically only the military version of the hog rider (a jeep)
I gotta see this
Boom Beach? Kinda remember that.
@@absoultethings4213 Jungle Clash
Is it really plagiarism though? Ps, I think Clash Royale can have one copy cat considering other games like Candy Crush have hundreds.
Been waiting for this video for a LONG time
Please make a video on history of golem
I love these videos I don’t play clash royal anymore and these are the only videos I watch on it
Video about the Furnace and Fire Spirits when? (The most down card into the ground)
29:14 and later in may balance changes most of evolution like Archers, Firecrakcer, him, Royal Recruits, Tesla will have health boost gone
Hope this card does not get any nerfs
16:59 PEKKA (which still hasn't had her deploy sound "fixed"): Am I a joke to you?
Can you do Lumberjack's history next video?
great vid as always!
Man i love listening your video while doing something else😊
Hi bro love your content good work❤
2 Gratz vids in one week? W across the board
Guys i have a theory. In his description it says he has only played clash royale. So lets say gratz is... idk 24. And clash existed for like.6 years. That means that gratz has not played video games fot 18 years. Then he must have done something fot 18 years.. there is like 3 options. He has trained to get the most satisfying voice EVER, He is SUPER religious and has spend almost his entire life with god or what I belive. He has been working out and he is super jacked
