This is closest we got to dark mirror
so true
Fr lmfao
I hate myself who think they him
Yes
@@moula5061 what?
This card is probably getting balance changes next season. The reason I think they are putting this update out in the middle of a season is so that they can get feedback.
It's overpowered, they gonna nerf it
Possible emerergency nerf even
@@hotman_pt_ yeah but think about how good the monk is gonna be against rocket cycle and pekka brigde spam
@@Purple_lurper thank fuck, rocket cycle players finally get a taste of their own medicine for one rocket
@@Purple_lurper true, but you kinda need to predict the rocket, since you can't place it and activate its ability on time for the rocket. Same with goblin barrel
I like the monk.
Wow
Nice
@@surochondro4830 man
Nice
You are gay too?
bro i thought the deflection of fireball and rocket was an edit but then i realize he can actually do that…nah that’s broken as hell 😭😭
I missed OJ's tech videos so much
Me too
his tech videos are the staple of his channel, i love watching them :D
Fr finally a new troop
Yesss
Bro it's not his fault supercell is slowing down with the new cards
Monk is gonna be SO busted. Even without deflecting stuff, it’s still a 4 second shield that reduces 80% of damage, and the fact that he can protect units around him when the opponent plays a spell? The goblin barrel + Monk combination was a nice example And the knock back attacks can probably counter things like hog/ram rider and battle ram really well Excited to play with this card!
Damn imagine maybe even bridge spam, fireball bait, 3 musks, the possibilities are ENDLESSSSSS
I’d say make him 5 elixir and dmg reduction 60% and it will be a good card
@@Blitz_maniac yes they gonna nerf that almost for sure
Firecracker and bowler and maybe magic archer can actually be good ways to activate king tower with the monk
4 elixir card that does what mini pekka does and more?
love it how you always make a guide video of a new card and never forget why you started this channel
For the arrows interaction I feel like since the arrows are spread out, he only deflects the arrows that are directly on the Monk and not the others that are out of range on the monk.
that was INCREDIBLY fast
Ikr
*sarcasm
That's what she said
@@ishansoni1089 she!?
@@ishansoni1089 sorry dude 😞
Maybe they add the Shield Maiden next and she can pulls all agro around her. And becomes immortal for a few seconds.
A provoke or fear mechanic would be amazing to see one day in Clash Royale
@@AeroLMS ya I was thinking about her, because I saw the Clash Mini game today. She seems like a great champion they could add.
Honestly Shield Maiden should be the one doing reflects Maybe she'll reflect melee
@@notshockwavedemon7543 if you think about it a shield protects not reflect.
No add the Mermaid king or whatever his name is
"it's not the main character of this, you're a lie." bu
I’m happy to see this channel evolve. I watched you back around freshman year of high school (4 years ago) and you were a lot more laid back. Happy to see you doing good Orange.
If the monks ability speeds up the executioners attack because of the reflection, I could see that going well in countering a push with a monk in it.
check out the new B-Rad video he abuses that fact
PL 0
How are we Ganna get munk today but they come on October 26
You can troll player with monk and win trophy road battle ladder without worring spell cycle and rocket user
ok
Will you be able to reflect a reflected spell? For example, can a monk reflect a rocket that has already been reflected by the opponent monk?
Too overpowered
Asking the real questions
Yes they can
Wow dank thinking
May b
I really feel like his 3-hit combo should reset when he locks onto new targets or if he has to move.
Thanks OJ! So much useful information and I love it.
4 elixir is insane. For his strenght im wondering why he isn’t at least 6?!
Weak dmg,sure he is not made for go alone,but surely with not that much hp and dmg for 6 elixir there would be no res to use it
I do think it is indeed powerful but it might be the weakest champion. Basically, high damage melee units or electro units counter the monk. And it cannot counter rocket tornado, cuz of ability time
@@Deadstay? rocket takes 4 seconds to travel, his ability takes 2 s to activate
@@goodhuman4189 Guessing game really
@@goodhuman4189 monk cannot be tornadoed
All this time just realized that mega minion throws projectile instead of slapping the enemy 😳
Most players who played clash of clans probably already knew this
@@Meteo_sauce yeah for ex me plz tell deck for arena 11
Yeah, they basically throw dark elixir, which is corrosive/unstable (?), So it destroys stuff
@@fytos_ lmao ogs will remember how in the old animation minions would look like they were pissing on the buildings
@@Meteo_sauce I played clash of clans after clash royale so I was really surprised when the minions shoot stuff
I love how we are collectively studying the monk's abilities. It really added some life to the game.
I haven't watched you in a couple years so I was surprised to see this massive glow up, looking great man!
Oj didn't mention that it's guaranteed damage if he crosses the bridge(with his ability that is)
yeah its like guaranteed 100 damage if you place him on the bridge
Yep
its almost like a spell
Only if the princess targets him
2:00 got a ad
“SUPERCELL FI-“
I can see the uptime nerfed or activation delay already. Damage is good as most single targets but I can definitely see the damage reduction going down. Or atleast only to crown towers but know our luck, also to troops as well
Thx for the education!
since sometimes very little damage is very important in ladder, he can do chip damage against the tower after using it for defending so monk is gonna be pretty good
Oj explains things real good
Long time lurker. It's nice to see you go back to your roots. And as always, thanks for all the info! =D
This is great, thank you!
Missing a rocket on purpose and fake his ability 😂
Yeah and now your down on elixir
@@mrhacker7411 throw the rocket to the opposite corner of the tower maybe lol
@@mrhacker7411 down by one only I can live with that😂
@@fatzhi ur down by FIVE
🤣
The vine boom followed by OJ’s eyebrow raise 🤨 at 0:47 is the missing piece in my life that I didn’t know I needed
bruh you look different, haven't seen a vid of yours since 2018 or 2019. Glad to see you're still grinding!
I love an occasional return to form 😊 I went so far as to check the sparky interaction in the last vid to guess it cuts crown tower splash dmg to 1/4
7:39 - that goblin cage 😂
Negative elixir trade
A new card is exciting. Watching OJ describe the monk is even more exciting.
reminds me of rosa from brawl stars, so op when first released. Has op damage reduction, decent hp too
Could activate king tower by pushing, or if monk uses reflect and you place a bowler/magic archer behind the king tower and your own reflected ranged attack bounces back hitting the king tower
3:18 i would say thats A POSITIVE ELIXIR TRADE
i missed OJ's tech videos so much
I love the monk character because of his deflection technique when he get into his meditation state
Hey, OJ If the monk can reflect the goblin barrel, then what if the oponent has an maxed one and you delfect it, Will it be maxet when deflected or Will it be the same level as your goblin barrle or, it depends on the monks level for this interaction...
It would do really well in Hog ExNado, probably 2.6 replacing IG, and Log Bait, but at the same time is counters Log Bait well too.
What does the ex stand for
@@evanreloadingbazookagaming1699 executioner
@@animeminians7451 thanks for telling me
2:18 im gonna add this to the juicy statisfying complition
I came back to watching some of my old favorite coc and cr players im so happy oj was the only one that didn't die
Thanks for the review I’ll save it for a couple months
does the monk only deflect projectiles that will damage it otherwise? maybe thats why some of the arrows down get deflected --or maybe the other troops that are touching it
I think it will reflect only throwable items
Oj I love your videos they are so helpful❤
What is your friend code in Bloons?
@@onecoolguy9499 LHOHDREZXX
I can already see the amazing plays people are going to pull out
Thanks. Had no idea how it worked.
It would be nice if you showed how Royal Giant gets reflected and Xbow after it's locked onto the tower but very good video :D
I lowkey still dont understand how this isnt shield maiden
nice and I am hyped for this clash Royale update
1:58 My new favorite quote by OJ.. OJ: “SUPERCELL, FIX YOUR GAME!”
It’s funny to think that one card out of now about 110 is going to change the whole meta and make the game unplayable and force us to use melee units that can’t ever make it to tower. Maybe combo decks will make a comeback because they will definitely be needed to counter push from this guy.
well I won't break the game for arena 1-15 but as soon as your outta that range then yeah the entire meta is gonna be forced to use ground troops
OJ is a legend🔥🔥
I am excited about this update . It's not just Monk but champions being available to more players and rework to trophy road.
The fisherman’s hook getting deflected reminds me of when you miss the hook grab ability on road hog in overwatch lol
I love melee cards, and the Monk seems like he’s going to break the game!
& SuperCell gonna nerf him next season
@@miscellaneous69420 thank god
Exactly like mega
Sounds like a great card to farm infernos badges
Unrelated to the video but wow i havent watched your channel in a while amd wow juuust wow what an insane glow ip mad restepct to you. Looking amazing
Haven't watched oj in a while. He's looking good nowadays! Keep it up man.
Lets just appriciete the combo damage doing such a good number of damage 0:15
Now this needs a nerf
Wow havent watched oj in a while; looking good and in shape brother!
After the barb/goblin barrels got reflected by monk they became YOUR units, does that mean that they do not care about which side they are on and attack whatever is closer? Or does his shield influence certain people/creatures?
6:19 sus
The Monk is definitely going to get a nerf next season.. his ability is actually OP
Yes but he's weak overall in attack, great defense card though, perfect for stopping pushes.
Hes just a counter meta wait until someone plays a non projectile deck
@@dabasil like what? He counters all damage for 4s, so it doesn't matter if you play a spell, ranged, melee, air or inferno unit. Insane and completely bull
@@gavins9846 still balanced
@@ZaSCKeep balanced💀
Обожаю твои видео хоть и смотрю с субтитрами. Спасибо❤️. А также у меня есть вопрос ты когда будешь выпускать видео касаемо обновления в brawl stars?
Dude the last time i saw you, you were blessed with a winter coat. But it seems that that blessing has been taken away. I want this as well. I need to shed some of this winter coat. Good for you.
Imagine two monks deflecting the sparky shock continously for 4 seconds on each other 😳
it will be deleted after the 2nd reflection
no way, he's not spamming the bridge with it? im proud
wow, i come back after years and oj really healthed up. I'm happy for him.
Wow, I wasn’t expecting to randomly be suggested your video again after 6 years? Haven’t seen one of your vids after stopped playing CR. Last watched you when I was in like year 8/9(?), and now I’m in my first year at Uni.
1:50 He blocks arrows in a radius around himself
I think Monk is too overpowered lmao
Every card is overpowered during release until SuperCell nerf it next season.
@@miscellaneous69420 Heal spell, skeleton king, mighty miner, arrows (sucks at the beginning of the game until the rework), etc .. wasn't broken at all at release.
@@xrafter If I'm not mistaken heal spell was actually pretty broken during release especially at 3 elixir for so much heal.
@@rabeechowdhury I remember something like that too. But they nerf it quickly. But still the heal spell was a bad card after release since the nerf cqme up so quickly most people didn't even try it before it.
OJ, you look good, brother! I haven't played Clash Royale in such a long time. Appreciate the video and am glad to see you are still rockin' out the YT videos. As always, thanks for another great video!
Man, the thing is not only that it has good damage and can counter any projectiles. This card is pretty much guaranteed damages if placed at the bridge since it deflects arrows from towers. The only counter to that is placing a troop before he passes the bridge.
I’ve been playing clash royale for 5 years and this is the first I’m hearing that the minions and mega minion throw projectiles. I thought they were just swiping at them with there hands.
If you look close you can see their throwing these little back balls it's easier to see in clash of clans
Bruh seriously?
5:56 refract
Yea exsakly
7:39 Oj: anything to pull that golem, and it is not going to connect with the monks knock back The golem after the goblin cage is placed: im gonna pretend i didnt see that
Can’t wait for the phoenix tech vid it’s being overshadowed by the monk but it looks like such a great card
The question everyone’s asking. Are the goblin bruisers punches considered projectiles?
no?
@@ellipsis4549 proof? 😏
@@SunshowerHeathcliffBeliever bro goblin bruiser is a melee unit💀
@@legacy4935 nah bro he throws all kinds of hands
I think the knockback is too much for big units
last time i watched you was like 3-4 months ago and since then you got a big glow up
Seeing the monk in clash royal reminds me of bremaster monk of Warcraft. I remember in BG i used to kill 3 to 4 player in an instant useing Hot Trub against them since it could reflect 50 percent of damage.
He’s kind of like a part time electro giant with a few twists
Basically
The monk is most likely going to change the entire game meta
duh
Just like the archer queen
i wanted to know if he reflects an already reflected spell and if he reflects a skeleton barrel since when its droping it is a projectile (and if it does, how would it be? he would lift it up as my unit or just turn the skeletons blue?)
7:57 The monk jumps on the megaknight 😂
I think it needs a bit of a nerf, like, reduce the third attack damage to 320, not much but already helps, the utility is also kinda... Good? But very situational
What an amazing update! I'm shure all the players from lvl 1 to 13 will enjoy it!
You mean from lv 0 to 42
No. Did you watch the update? Ita not lv14 anymore that you can unlock
@@charlesbaptiste6984 You can unlock the monk at level 39

I haven't seen any OJ video, since I quit this game an year ago, until this one. OMG, are you telling me this guy is the OJ I knew?😱😱😱
Interesting Most complicated interactions of any card imo (I like it) I never knew minions were also ranged. Kinda weird. Could be that when SC was first making CR, they found it easier to code all air troops as ranged for some reason.
Nah, it's because minions don't actually do melee attacks. If you pay attention, you can see they throw dark elixir which seems to be very corrosive, hence the dmg In CoC it's clearer* to see
@@daridon2483 You're right 👍
it would be cool if his ability worked exactly like telekinesis, i mean he would use all the attacks he collected at once as soon as his ability runs out PS: I'm more and more excited about the heroes, every time a new one comes, it always surprises me more than the one before it, this one is busted tho, like 3:18 BRUUUH
After Duelling players using Monk on their Decks....well his too Broken, my man Monk is a one man Army at the Moment 💀... the Fact that he's: - ability costs Low Elixer - plus 100% dmg after Activation & - practically invulnerable against melee cards when activated - also pushback grounded Cards is Obnoxious (love this btw😁) + so a Quick Fix - - ability activation should cost 2 or 3 Elixer - remove his Invulnerability against melee cards when ability is active that way he's easy pickings when mediating (Deflecting ) - this way placement and protecting him takes priority & using ability wisely is key since Reckless Plays result in Punishes costing elixer (hence he becomes balanced without breaking him😙) - thus giving u a sense of satisfaction when u pull a clutch moment activating the Ability Love the Deflection Mechanic Very Useful 😁
yoooo u became fit sheesh good for u king!
I just realized the reason he doesn't fully reflect arrows is because he only reflects projectiles in that small circle that shows when he activates the ability, so only arrows in that radius get reflected, that's why the other goblins died and the one close to the monk survived.
the amount of king tower activations possible will probably make this card balanced
they could just not use the ability and you don’t get a king tower activation
This is far from balanced. The amount of cards it can counter are endless. It’ll most likely make some decks useless. And if that isn’t the case then it’ll replace some cards in many meta decks
Golden knight 2.0
@@SupernaturalColors I play lavahound/ king/clone deck. It's literally unplayable in the current meta of monk and phoenix. Guys out here really making decks with elixir collector, monk, phoenix and mirror, and just cycling through them endlessly til they catch you out and pump 6 phoenixes while using the monk to tank for the cycle. It's so ridiculous lol
wait,so the monk is basically an old hog rider who meditates since his retirement?
