The Miner is one of the first legendarys in Clash Royale and is still is one of the most popular troops to this day. Although he hasn't had many balance changes, his influence has always been prominent in several different metas.
Correction: The rocket does 25% of its damage to crown towers, not 20%.

Goblin barrel: spawns 3 troops that can be placed anywhere in the arena => spell Miner: spawns a troop that can be placed anywhere in the area and has reduced tower damage just like spells => troop At first this confused me but from a technical standpoint this makes sense. The goblin barrel can be placed right on top of a tower. That’s the concept of the card. While the miner can only be placed at the side of one. If they would turn the barrel into a troop it couldn’t be placed directly on towers anymore.
Goblin barrel originally did damage spell damage when it was 4 elixir too

miner is definitely the best card supercell has designed ever imo. also the fact that basically no one has complained about miner despite it being one of the most popular cards for a long time just goes to show how non frustrating he is
@@AbstractVen0mThats mostly high ladder players though, which is the minority of the player base (this doesn't mean its not a problem) i still think miner is one of the best cards Supercell has made tbh
No one has complained? Wtf people have been complaining for 3 years now
I actually hate Miner, but that's because I'm bad with the card. I think Gratz could've touched on the "skill' of the card a bit more in the video: 95% of the time when I lose to miner, the thought is "damn, he got me" because he caught me off the card rotation needed to deal with it, rather than "what a load of crap." Also, IMO you rarely feel hopeless against the miner itself because of the low damage, and there is always a way to counterplay the miner's chip, though it might be prediction-based and could leave you vulnerable to the synergy cards.
Don't like it in coc though.
It is probably the worst card they ever designed. How is a card that has always been overpowered great game design? Lol
Maybe the strange early buffs were just to make the card a little bit better as a temporary measure while people were still leveling it up. It was hella difficult back then and it took a long time.
@@secretname4190 : I mean… in some cases they didn’t need to. Think of those broken recent releases!
I'd rather deal with Miner at its peak of strenght than Phoenix. Seriously, who thought making a Mega Minion that has more DPS/faster attack speed, summon a Giant Snowball without the slow on death and forces you to kill the egg with a spell the majority of the time when it dies on the opponent's side just for 1+ elixir by the way. And personally, when Phoenix first came out, I though it was a 7-elixir card just off the look of the card alone.

Miner is designed so well, you can slap it in most decks, and won't be that crappy, unlike for example executioner who needs tornado to be good
Executioner is the bane of fireball bait when placed correctly.
Miner is the best card in cr ever Y'all could argue for Tornado & Log though, but unlike Miner who pretty much never has a competition to steal his place, Tornado & Log at some point were competing with other cheap spells like Barb barrel, Zap, Snowball & Arrows So yeah, my top 3 greatest cr cards would be: 1. Miner 2. Tornado 3. Log
Good game design, unlike whatever we got with Champions and Evolutions.
Someone never figured out what a swarm unit was
It just goes well with any troop if you pair it with arrows/poison/eq
I would like a video on the log. It's in the same position as the miner, where it's high usage rate doesn't bother the community, but much more amplified. As such its use rate has been near 50% in top ladder decks and often 100% in top 10 decks.. Yet nobody asked its nerf.
His video on logbait discusses the log, don’t think a full vid about it is as necessary
@@plhbuschannelThe log wasn't trash on release, zap was just ridiculously overpowered at the time

This is like a natural evolution to the Gratz video style; instead of focusing on the balance changes of the unit, Miner's unique history of balance carves a narrative of how he's changed the meta, instead of how the meta has changed him. Absolutely one of your best, Gratz
You could say that Miner dug its own meta.
Miner never changed the meta though, it was just adaptable and viable in any meta. And now they killed the only archetype that actually revolved around the card.
You should do X-bow next which is arguably one of the most polarizing cards ever. Would be extremely cool.
I can't remember the last time Xbow has had a balance change
Fr
@Gameover people love to call it low skill because they hate it (which tbf is understandable, I play xbow and still hate seeing xbow lmao) People seem to confuse "low skill" with "annoying as hell". XBow is undoubtedly not fun to play against, but it's not low skill at all.

That final comment about reacting to miner palcements is intersting to me as a fighting game player, where to me having some forms of mind games and unseeable mixups that you have tot ry to read your opponents patterns and habits to guess where its going, is really cool and interesting, delaying miner spawn time would take away from that imo.
The difference is that in fighting games patterns are a series of complex actions so it's way more likely not to mix up when under pressure, while putting miner on the tower is just a tap and you just have to do it randomly, there's no mind game
@@ST-in7fo still i always felt like that was their intention for miner. and also idk why but i noticed that a miner is more likely to ignore nearby units rather than the towers, compared to other units. Like mini pekka can be distracted easily but miner seems to go directly into the towers.
@@ST-in7fo There is because different placemts have different options for counterplay, going for king tower side or in between both princess towers, you can activate the king with tornado. Front makes it easier to splash/interact with suppprt troops, so wall side is the "safest" but most predictable, you have to weigh up how each interaction could come up, if you've shown your opponent tornado they're way more likely to play around it, narrowing down the guesswork.
@@Cassapphic I'm conscious about miner interactions but rn the most common combo is naked miner poison that you can't predict in any way
@@ST-in7fo Maybe make it 1.5 seconds and augment his damage and health by 10%. Is still quite fast but now is reactable.
Alternate title: Gratz searching for 100 different clips of the miner hitting the crown tower or pump. Fr though, great video!
All your videos are clearly thought out really great, and your editing skills are out of this world! You are easily one of the best CR KZheadrs out there. keep it up!
Truly the legend never dies, the miner crossed all metas since 2016 and even now one of the best win conditions
Miner could get to heal crown towers and still be a top 10 card imo
dude genuinely love these videos, their like documentaries without any of the fluff a lot of the mass produced ones since they got popular on yt
I’m glad you mentioned Brad in this video. It would be almost criminal if you didn’t.
Whenever they kill the miner, he'll dig his way out of his own grave.
😂😂good pun😂😂
This card has for the majority of its lifespan singlehandedly held up high-skill archetypes on its shoulders. It has rightfully earned a permanent place in High Ladder.
I just saw a loading tip that said NERF MINER I think they have gone crazy
8:22 - 9:06 glad you clarified about focusing on "top ladder" -- was curious too. great video, thank you for researching & sharing! :D
I honestly think that miner is just so beloved simply due to how fun it is to play with. If you lose to a miner deck, 9/10 you'll never feel like you lost because the opponent had miner.
So even in the period when goblin drill was op the miner still had at least 11% usage rate ?
Drill is more of a win condition miner is also very versatile because it can go anywhere in the arena
Miner is just supposed to be a distraction but the fact that it can be cycled so much makes it a win condition nkw
Miner is simply that guy fr😂Miner is arguably the best card in cr ever Y'all could argue for Tornado & Log though, but unlike Miner who pretty much never has a competition to steal his place, Tornado & Log at some point were competing with other cheap spells like Barb barrel, Zap, Snowball & Arrows So yeah, my top 3 greatest cr cards would be: 1.

LETS GOOO THE BOY GOT A SPONSOR. I was so surprised when I first watched you and realized you only had one video. I subscribed immediately and the quality has always been so high. I don’t even play clash Royale much anymore but god I love these videos.
another great vid Gratz. ive been subbed since your first vid and im super hype for you to pass 100k and get your silver play button. you deserve it. you have a fantastic voice and a great format dude. keep up the great work.
I'd love to see a documentary about spawners and why they exist since I don't feel like any of them deserve a separate video
barbarian hut already has a separate video tho
I remember when the "Nerf miner" joke was big. I liked to comment "Buff miner" on random CR videos instead because I think miner needs a buff. Then, Supercell nerfed it again.
Holy shit!!! Congrats on the raid sponsorship!!! You deserve it, man. Your videos are always hit for me, thank you for your efforts
I stopped playing clash royale a while back so its interesting to see how the game is today, I deadass didn't know the phoenix mighty miner and the monk were a thing until I watched your videos but even so the miner holds a special place in my heart, it was my first legendary back in 2017, got it out of a silver chest in arena 6, that was before the animation for legendary cards would play, so it just popped out all of a sudden, absolutely wild. I love this card
Could you do a video on the electro giant sometime? I’ve seen it brought up a few times before in your videos so i’ve gotten interested in hearing about it
I dont know how this guy pumps out such high quality videos so quickly
love rewatching your vids man, they're so well made
Gratz, you’re videos are insanely well made. How on earth do you not have 100k+ subscribers? Wow.
you should make a "worst updates" video where you go through balance changes and updates that had no reasoning behind them and were bad
Archer’s first attack speed has been 0.1 from beginning of game, I’d rather they found another way to nerf her. Now it’s 0.5, meaning they rarely chip damage towers.and are bow punishable by log
Xbow?
Miner looked everywhere underground but still couldn't find my father.
Miner will always have a special place in my heart. It was the first legendary I ever got from a free chest.
Me2 😂❤
x-bow might b a good card to review next, considering its state..
Nothing much to review about it. X-bow has the most unique style of gameplay which only very few can learn which is why nobody uses it.
@@eternallife8898 it's also incredibly boring both to play and to play against so only people liking to annoy other players run it
a history on the electro spirit, the only card with no balance changes, would be kind of funny
You got a sponsership!!! You have come along way, good luck man!
this calls for a card removal, replaced by the miner spirit
20:57 *this* A card's strength mostly stems from its versatility and win rate. Versatility is often overlooked as with the most prominent examples being the Miner -- which you've discussed here -- and the Log. The latter is almost was, and still is the most versatile of any card, with recent exceptions being the Phoenix and Monk meta and the Archers meta; it really has come to be an indication that a card is OP, when it nears Log's use rate. That's the reason that it comes to me as a surprise when a lot of casual players and even some pro players think that it's okay the way it is. It's not so versatile because it counters Log Bait, and other swarm bait; it's not because it has a knock-back; it's not because of the damage to towers before the nerf (it's almost as good after the nerf). It's versatile because it's all of those things: it deals 1.5 times the damage of other 2-elixir spells, has 2 times the area of impact, and has a special mechanic that knocks-back any ground troop (and that compensates well beyond the fact that it doesn't hit the few air troops in the game). That makes it strong, or at least usable in most decks (it even appeared in beat-down and bridge-spam some times even though it's not suited for that archetype), and that is the reason that it's so prominent in most cycle and siege decks. #nerfthelog
BUFF the log
But supercell has always used spell as a counter to overpower cards and control the meta, so it's really hard to nerf the log without giving a massive rise to all the bait and swarm archetypes. You could say zap was nerfed then but back then it got wayyyy too meta defining with over 50% use rate in many cases, the log havent even reached 50% for once.

I love watching your video Gratz, especially this video. I played this game when it was first released till now so it is very nostalgic to watch yout videos. Keep it up!!! (Btw will you make a video about lvl 15? I personally hate the update since it requires tremendous time to grind)
Nothing hits harder than 360p clips with emotional Minecraft OST, keep it up mate
Honestly the quality of these videos is through the roof. I would love to see an Xbow video, I used to use it as my main win con up till it got its fire speed reduction and now it's just....a shell of its former self
Xbow.I hate it like 2.6 and log bait but it still a iconic deck in cr history,and it will quite interesting to see it history
It's the iconic trio but I think there are way more annoying decks
@@ST-in7fo like?
Stickerbush Symphony at the beginning... Sounds so good...
i love you for having that song list in discription
You should do sparky next, she’s my favorite card!
Great video but part of what makes playing with and against the miner ineresting is guessing where the miner is going to go based on the decks being played and previous positions
Dude, i played this game when it first dropped, hated it, and left, yet somehow, this dudes content is just so good i listen to it while driving or grindig a game or something, he just makes it sound interesting. Keep up the great work man!
I’ll be honest. I’ve never played clash royal, never even gone near it. But I love your videos about the game. The way you examine numbers, metas, and give so much context to the game, and how troops effect it, make your videos a great watch even with no knowledge of the game at all. Keep up the videos!
About the often mentioned vanilla state. Getting a 6% buff and later getting a 6% nerf is a nerf, because the later 6% are more than the first. If im wrong please tell me, but that is how i think it works
Technically it should, but I checked the health of a level 1 miner when it first came out and the health of a level 1 miner after the health reduction, and they’re both 1,000.
1.06(1000)=1060 0.94(1060)=996.4 It should have ultimately reduced the Miner's HP by 3 or 4 points but they might have just rounded it to 1000 for the purpose of re-standardizing interactions because the final discrepancy was so minute.
it’s because they count the percentages from the original stats, not from the ones they are at while being nerfed/buffed
It’s crazy how many different videos you can overlay octopath music over and still have it feel right
Congrats on 100k
I've personally never had any issues with the miner, rarely played it but when playing against I saw it as a non thread card that you could just ignore for the most part.
I haven't played Clash in a couple years now, so my perspective may be off, but I have an interesting comparison on Miner. I play competitive singles Pokémon, and the Pokémon that the Miner reminds me of is called Landorus-Therian. Like the Miner, it is an incredibly versatile pick for your team that can serve a variety of roles; bulky support, speed control using a Choice Scarf (a speed-boosting item), or even a set-up attacker, due to great stats, a fantastic ability, and awesome defensive typing. Despite this, Lando has some key weaknesses and most teams are going to have a built-in answer for Lando--you don't have to prep for it specifically. The problem is what it enables the *other* Pokémon on the team to do. It reminds me of how Miner can be used on several archetypes, but never felt overwhelming to play against. One more thing they have in common is that competitive players love them, but more casual players seem to dislike them. The thing about Lando existing, though, is it serves as role compression. It beats certain powerful Pokémon, it sets Stealth Rocks, it can remove the opponent's rocks, it can spread status conditions, etc. Miner does this as well. It can serve as a pseudo-spell, a mini-tank, or a win condition on the same deck depending on the matchup. No big conclusion, just thought it was an interesting comparison. Lando brings variety due to the role compression it brings--I'd argue that, to a degree anyways, Miner does the same thing.
This is a comparison I would have never expected yet it fits so perfectly
As a former competitive pokémon playet myself, you couldn't have said it more perfectly Miner is THE versatile card of clash royale, and no card was ever as close to have the versatility the miner has

Gratz, I am so glad that your channel has come so far. I started watching at around 5000 subscribers, and I was baffled by the low subscriber count. These videos were so high quality and entertaining. Whenever you clicked, you knew what you were watching and you wanted to keep watching. I’m so glad that you are so close to 100k. This video just came out, so it might be able to push you to the threshold. I really hope that you make it!
Hot take: they should give miner an indicator of where he’ll show up. You can tell where a goblin barrel is gonna land by its trajectory, so it’s possible to see a tricky barrel coming. However, miner gives no indication of where he’s gonna pop up, so you pretty much have to hard read where he’ll go to prevent taking damage. Of course, this would be a huge nerf, so it could be counterbalanced by giving him a damage increase or something like that.
that would make the card useless since they could just drop goblins where the miners gonna be
No
This is essentially the suggestion at the end of the video. By increasing the deploymenttime, you don't have to read him anymore.
no
Doesn't really matter if it deals more damage when its never gonna hit the tower anymore.
Royal Ghost is one of my favorite cards in Clash so I think a video on him would be really cool. Besides that, really great video, I don't even play CR & yet I love your vids & find them super interesting. If that isn't signs of somoene maing great content, then I don't know what is. As for the Miner since the only nerf it seems to get is a reduction in Crown Tower damage, I fear that at one point they'll nerf his damge so much that he'll be practilly worthless.
Your vids always a thrill to look forward to I may have quit the game but I love seeing these vids
I just started watching. I hope B-rad will be mentioned.

I love how you said it moves slow in the intro when in reality its walk speed is very fast
Clearing the schedule. My new favourite CR youtuber just dropped another video!
This aged like milk
Honestly I still think the miner nerf we got a while ago was unnecessary. Poison was the main reason it was so obnoxious, along with some support troops that allowed it to be unusually strong. Had we given it another couple of weeks given what changes were made, I think it would have been fine.
And the main issue with spell cycle isn’t the spell damage it’s 3 card cycle
If it was unnecessary why is it still the most used win condition, I think the nerf was fair and it is more balanced now(still is a powerful versatile card)
@@boxcart4533 It's a unique card, no other card can fulfill the same role as miner so unless it's nerfed to the point of unplayability, like reducing its health by 50%, it will still see play. That doesn't mean the nerf was warranted.
@@boxcart4533its not a win condition anymore. Its used as a mini tank to support win conditions like balloon and lava hound and wall breakers. The nerf made it more or less unviable as a win condition.
i havent been able to sleep lately but these videos help? thank you grantz 😭 i have never played clash royale ever yet im entranced by the content
31:38 its not always random though. if the match has just started, the enemy will place the miner in a position that the tornado cabt pull, which is in the diagonal part of the tower, if you search it up youll see it, its hard to explain lol. and if you're mid match and the enemy has cheap swarm cards, such as bats, goblins, and others, he'll place the miner on the bottom of your tower so it makes your card go the opposite way, and allowing the swarm cards hit the tower. again, its quite hard to explain on a comment, but you can find multiple videos about the best miner placement and how to counter it. great video as always!
I love miners! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Congrats on the sponsor Gratz! I know must of us would roll our eyes at Raid Shadow Legends, but I'm happy you're making money off this youtube thing, you deserve it!
Thank you gratz for so much nostalgic content
Will you talk about the clone spell? There was a time at which i played clone golem night witch, even zappy in mid ladder and had a lot of fun and then they made the clone spawn to the back instead of the side and i never saw it ever again, and it was already rare to go against
Miner should do sparky damage
Hooray new Gratz vid!
Im a miner main, and this card is not overpowered at all, just so flexible and versatyle.
Also its kinda dumb you just place it on the opponents princess tower and its almost guaranteed damage
i'm in the same camp, and i feel like if they're going to constantly nerf its' damage they need to give it something to offset it. something like 8% higher health or something to incentivize use as a tank for smaller units while reducing its efficiency as pure chip damage. otherwise you're just straight nerfing an entire archetype, which is ridiculous considering the fact that miner decks are some of the least braindead in the game, while things like bridgespam and hog cycle have been unchanged for half a decade.
@@user-fv8uy5kv4c not rlly spells are guaranteed damage and many other things

FINALLY GRATZ UPLOADS AGAIN LET'S GOOOO
This guy just came out of nowhere and started making high quality CR videos. Unreal guy 🤣
Deploy time nerf is a nice idea, but there are problems either way. If it gets a deployment nerf to the point where you can drop something before it even targets the tower, then it loses basically everything that makes it what it is. If it's still basically impossible to time it, then a damage buff with your troop killing it a little faster would just result in the same thing we have now. I think in a modern meta, the problem with miner is that it's basically a poison cycle deck. And that doesn't feel right. Made even worse by the fact that you can 3 card cycle with a champion in your deck. Every match vs miner cycle players feels like a fight to death, wether the player is good or not. There's just something really weird about that archetype.
As a miner player I actually agree, especially in the current meta
I think maybe a miner buff and a poison nerf would be great. It lets him become more reliable and playable without poison then it will be in a healthier spot?
I think they should add something to tell exactly where the miner will be placed(like goblin barrel shadow) the card will be less annoying to deal with and people will stop complaining miner nerf 😂
u can see it LMAO hover and look at whether the path is inside or outside of the tower and then just react fast enough
Then it’s useless
