Anime Styled Action RPG Red Stone 2 Mobile Enters Closed Beta in Korea

Do you still remember that L&K Logic Korea, the creator of Red Stone, cancelled the PC sequel for the mobile version of game - Red Stone 2 Mobile? After years of development, the anime styled action RPG Red Stone 2 mobile has just kicked off its first closed beta test in Korea. The publisher is now 4:33 Creative Lab, which has already released several big names in western countries such as Blade: Sword of Elysion, Seven Guardians and more, so we have reasons to believe that this highly-anticipated mobile game will have a global release.



In Red Stone 2 mobile, players will start off as an adventurer on the continent of Frandel. It’s said that mysterious stones will grant infinite power to those who manage to obtain them. With these stones, players can unlock their hidden powers and transform into a variety of powerful beings. Examples from the first game include Fallen Angel, Werewolf, Witch and more. The control system is pretty simple in this game. Players can move by taping the screen, and the character will auto attack the nearby enemies. During the auto-attack, players can cast the character skills and the team combos.

Soul of Eden: Rayark Released New Trailer and Characters

In January, we were given several character portraits and teasers showing some gameplay of the upcoming CCG game Soul of Eden. Now Rayark Games released a new game trailer, which unveils more in-game units and gameplay.
 



Soul of Eden tells a story of 2 opposing sides, consisting of 6 clans, striving for their individual beliefs, which inevitably leads to conflicts. It is a mobile game mixes the features of MOBA and card game, using real-time system.
 
World Setting
Gods dominated seasons and people’s life. All people who believe in gods will be protected and blessed with amazing magic.
 
Until one day, an ordinary people called Adam broke into the restricted area where codes are stored and stole the code of evil, leading to the war between gods and human. From then on, the world was divided into Eden Kingdom and Nod Federation.
Eden: Fantastic Western Kingdom
 
Nod: Modern Technology Federation

Character Descriptions:
Clans belonging inside the Eden Kingdom are Juphord, Veritas, and Saarn, while Nod Federation outside borders is composed of Turing, Badener, and Lurkein.

Selamod: As a high level apostle, Selamod harbors mighty soulstone magic power that can launch missiles powerful enough to knock down walls, penetrate soldiers' armor, and even paralyze the energy source for quantum life forms.


Felicity: Also an apostle of the Juphord clan, Felicity has a pair of abnormally bulging petrified claws; anyone who stands in her way shall be ripped to shreds or beat to pieces. It is said that a serene smile was once seen upon her face, but the rumor lacking evidence was soon forgotten.
 
Kerumba: A humongous warrior of Veritas with a soulstone core and a body of man made materials and steel. It's strong body seemingly able to take on any attack, a super soldier with a very high health levels and AOE abilities.
 


Executioner: the 3rd generation artificial lifeform created by Kulen, guardian of the Turing Clan, boasting complex independent thinking abilities and destructive power that will strike terror right into the heart of enemies. As his weapon is shaped like a giant sickle, the Eden Kingdom refers to him as the Grim Reaper, and can also cast a surrounding shield of light absorbing damage.
 
Triton: "Love and Peace" is the classic motto of Triton, Second Army Chief to the Nod Federation. Besides training new recruits his favorite pastime is weight training; due to diligent training Uncle Triton acquired a burly figure and mental toughness, after attacking he will cast an AOE heal.
 
Ravka: Inside their bodies chemical reactions are constantly undergoing like a biofactory, so everyone in the Lurkein clan prefers to keep their distance. From the poisonous substances and striking colors released upon self explosion, most would avoid keeping a pet like this.

It will be going into a closed beta phase over the summer break. More details will be released in the next few months. We share as much information as we can.

At the Epicenter Moscow Dota 2 final, Duncan Jones and Rob Kazinsky took on stage and gave a panel for the upcoming Warcraft movie. There were also two new movie clips shown, including tons of new scene such as Gul’dan opening the Dark Portal and the emotional scenes between Durotan and Drake. Besides, they also unveiled some fun stories behind the scenes. Let’s take a look.

Part 1



Part 2



Panel Highlights:
  • Duncan Jones was a GM in WoW and ran a Clan in COD.
  • Combat mixes it up between epic scale battles and one v one fights.
  • Kazinsky enjoyed playing Orgrim before he becomes the legend - some innocence and naiveté he wouldn't have in the future.
  • Kazinsky explained how WoW saved his life. He used to play a character on TV who wasn't very nice and would often be attacked on the street - verbally and physically. He didn't like leaving the house. WoW was a place where no one knew who he was and he was only judged for how good he was at the game. He also found friends and community. Slowly, as a group they achieved things together and that brought back his self belief. Now, making this movie, he gest to repay the game for what it gave him.
  • Gamers will get all the fights they could hope for, the scale of war, the action, all the things that will blow your mind but you'll also be surprised how much you end up caring about the characters as well.
  • Kazinsky: "Also, remember, we are you. We wanted the same movie as you!"


Clash Royale Best Arena 4 or 5 Deck: Use the Hog Rider to Arena 7!

$

Hog Rider is undoubtedly one of the most effective cards in Clash Royale. It's a rare card but you can get it from Arena 4 and a well balanced Hog Rider deck is good at climbing from Arena 4 to Arena 7 easily. Ash brings us another Hog Rider deck that works not only in Arena 4 & 5 but it also in higher Arenas.



Replacement: if you don't have the Freeze spell, replace it with Fireball since it also works effectively in this deck as well.

The main strategy is to use Hog Rider combo (Hog Rider + Minions/Valkyrie) to deal damages to your opponent's Archer Tower while using Bomb Tower to defend since many players are playing hut spammer decks in Arena 4 & 5. Noted that don't place Bomb Tower too early since its HP has been nerfed lately. Check out how Ash plays it with this deck and some live battles.

NCsoft has released the Q1 financial report as well as updates on the upcoming titles. For mobile games, Blade & Soul Mobile and Lineage Mobile will be released in Q3 or Q4, while Lineage Red Knight will also be released in this year.
 
For PC MMOs, Lineage Eternal is still going to do a closed beta and this time it's slated for Q3 2016 (it was planned for April before). MXM has started beta test in South Korea and China, and it's scheduled to start beta in the west in Q3. Guild Wars 2 is preparing for the second expansion but has no schedule. NCsoft states that it will be delivered to players in the possible fastest speed. As for Blade & Soul, it will be released in Russia and other markets.
 
>> Lineage Eternal Closed Beta Delayed Again to Q3 2016


 
NCsoft's Q1 2016 financial result shows strong growth from Blade & Soul, thanks for the game's western release. It also indicates big trouble in WildStar, which no longer has the ability to make profit for the company.

Clash Royale Arena 4 Deck Guide: The Best Air Based Battle Strategy!

$
0
0
Good Battle strategies often have a good combo of both attack and defense.This battle strategy has exactly that!
 
Battle Strategy: This Battle strategy is apt for arena 4. The strategy cannot guarantee 3 stars but however if efficiently use can be extremely effective. It’s not necessary that you too should have similar level of cards like those in the screen-shot below. But however it can be extremely helpful in getting your 3 stars.

Battle Deck:
 
Spear Goblins + Skeletons + Baby Dragon + Goblins + Minions + Baloon + Goblin Barrel + Rage Spell


 
Use and role of each card: (Sequence mentioned after Rage Spell)
 
1.Spear Goblins:
 
The spear goblins are very good at what they do. Why so? Well, for starters they require just two counts of elixer, so before you even know it your spear goblins are out on the battlefield doing the job for you. What makes them even more effective is the fact that they come in a pack of three!
 
Each defending tower fortunately or unfortunately can only target one unit at a time. So let's say spear goblin number one is getting attacked by the tower, this would give goblin two and three that much of an extra time to attack.
 
Lastly, well they have spears! This means they don't have to make their way completely to the tower. They can throw their spears at the towers from a fair distance, thus saving time.
 
The spear goblins would have two main roles.The spear goblins would bebasically sent behind the baby dragon so as to cause maximum damage.
 
The second one is for a more defensive purpose.So what do you do?
 
Use your spear goblins to take down your opponent’s air troops quickly but keep in mind to keep them considerably away from your target.
 
2.Skeletons:
 
Personally this is one of my most favorite cards! An elixir count of just one and possibly the best solution to your defensive woes. Now i know what you're thinking, how can something like a skeleton whose hit points are very minimal in nature be of use in any way.
 
Now if you're referring to an attacking strategy then they can die really fast and may render to be ineffective unless they are sent along with other troops with high hit points.
 
However,what we would use the skeletons for is for a defensive purpose. Let's say the prince is charging at you and you just used out all your elixir on attacking. Well, just wait out a second and then use your skeletons on the prince. The skeletons will help in taking out at least half the hit points of the prince.
 
While this is in motion your tower will also help in causing some damage and before you know it the prince that requires an elixir count of five just got taken out by a pack of four skeletons that cost just one.
 
3.Minions and goblins:
 
Both the minions and goblins must simply complement the other troops.
 
Whether in terms of defending or attacking, Minions are needed to defend against air troops like a balloon whereas , goblins can be used to defend against ground troops. Minions are extremely effective against a mini pekka.
 
But be aware of a valkyrie, i would suggest using the minions to take out a valkyrie. Now when can we use these guys to attack? The last sixty seconds would be ideal because these guys can really implement a large amount of pressure onto your opponent and some times that is all you need.
 
4.Baby Dragon and Balloon:
 
Perhaps the key to your victory lies in this pair, I would suggest to use these guys in a pair. Because this is vital i will talk about it more in depth as we go on.
 
As of now, why do we need them? Two words-Maximum Damage. Save up and send the balloon right behind your baby dragon. This should do wonders if it's supplemented with a rage spell. If your opponent makes the wrong move and does not defend. Its game, set and match for us.
 
5.Goblin Barrel:
 
The goblin barrel is extremely effective and can be the decision maker at the end. The goblin barrel for one reason does not have to make its way all the way to the tower. It can be simply thrown on the tower. So why not have a game changer on your team?
 
This is one card that i have held onto ever since i started playing the game and i can vouch for this card and say that this will win you a crucial battle every now and then.
 
6.Rage Spell:
 
When?Where? Who? These are the questions you have to address when it comes to a rage spell. All the questions and the answers are merely subjective in nature. So when to use them?
 
I would say use them when you feel it's right. Go with your gut because during the course of the battle if you are in control then that is when you use the rage spell to guarantee your victory. Where to use this spell?
 
On the troops of course but you already knew that. But it is necessary to use this spell on the area just between the tower and the area touching your playing field. This will help your troops get to the tower faster and cause the damage needed for you to win. Finally, On who to use them on?
 
Well that would depend on the strategy which is explained below.
 
How it works:
 
The strategy is simple. Like every strategy the beginning is extremely vital. Start off by sending your baby dragon right up in front. This is done so that your baby dragon can soak up the damage. So who will be responsible to deal in all the damage? That’s right!
 
The balloon’s bombs are extremely effective and can give you your first star in a matter of seconds. So the balloon should be sent right behind the dragon. It’s also important to see how your opponent reacts to this strong first move. Most often than not, he will look to defend.
 
If that’s the case don’t back down. Use the rage spell immediately  and deal as much as damage as possible. This will set up your 3 star win. The remaining troops are simply there to defend if in case your opponent chooses to attack with air troops as well. Spear goblins and minions can be used to defend this.
 
Finally to assure your 3 star victories your goblin barrel can be used. So win away and remember not to panic.
 
Points to remember:

* The game is all about strategy. Even if you let your opponent take the first half of the game, if u can crowd him and cause an element of panic in him, then the game is yours.

* Remember to always use your combinations wisely. Sending your balloon in alone would be useless because it would die easily before it could even cause the damage needed.

* Defense is equally as important! Yes, this strategy is mainly an attack based strategy but remember to use your supplementary cards to to defend as well.

* Practice makes perfect. You may not get it right straight away but keep playing and keep learning.
 
Most important of all, have fun! Cheers!

Clash Royale: Budget Spawners Deck to Arena 7

$
0
0
After the May 18th update, Knight’s hitpoionts will be increased by 10%, making it an eligible mini tanker. Also, Skeletons’ hitpoints and damage will be increase by 5%. So today, I am going to recommend a spawners deck, which is from a chinese player XUAN.


If you are in Arena 7-8,Knight can be replaced by Mini P.E.K.K.A. to deal with Royal Giant/Hog Rider/ Valkyrie.

I use this deck since January, it’s really a budget deck! You can see from the picture above, I have two accounts using this deck, one is 368 deck at level 8 with 3001 trophies, and another is 257 deck at level 7 with 2518 trophies.


This is a screenshot from my new account. Using this 246 deck, it only took me 15 days to get 2000 trophies (I bought Lighting from the card shop). Here are some instructions. Generally, drop Goblin Huts to do some damage to your opponents’ Arena Tower in the first 90-120 seconds. During this process, you should know what your opponents have in hand and wait for a push. In the last, you can use spell to finish the game. This deck requires you to keep calm.
 
On Defense
Both beginners and advanced players may ask about why they cannot deal with some strong pushes. Here are some match ups in Arena 4 -8.
 
1. Freeze/Rage + Hog Rider
This combo is very popular and we can see it in TV most of the time. You can use buildings to distract Hog Rider. To be more specific, you should drop Tombstone when you see Hog Rider acrosses the river. (The placement is shown in the picture)
 
2. Golem
If your opponents drop Golem in the beginning, you should immediately push another lane. Of course, if you don’t have any push combo in hand just defense. Drop Goblin Hut first and then put Tombstone. By doing so, you can make Golemites activate your King Tower. (The placement is shown in the picture below)
 

Pull Golemites to walk toward King Tower


King Tower is activated


 3. Giant/Balloon
In most cases, your opponents will drop AOE supporters behind Giant/Hog Rider. Droop buildings to pull Giant/Hog Rider/Balloon and use Spell/Knight to deal with AOE troops. If one building is not enough, then droop another building. Your Arena Tower is more important than a Goblin Hut.
 
4. P.E.K.K.A/Giant Skeleton
Once your opponents drop P.E.K.K.A/Giant Skeleton, you should use all your elixir to defense. The best way to counter them is to drop Goblin Hut/Tombstone to pull them. (The placement is shown in the picture) You should make your two Arena Tower to do some damage to them. Also, you should take care of their supporters. Don’t let them come to your Arena Tower.   


5. Prince + Dark Prince
If your opponents drop Dark Prince first, then you should put Knight in front of the defensive building, and drop Tombstone/Goblin Hut behind Prince. Similarly, if your opponents drop prince first, then you drop Tombstone/ Goblin Hut, and drop Knight behind the Dark Prince. Basically, it takes 5-7 elixir to counter the 9 elixir push. Of course, if you don’t have Knight in hand, you can use Goblin Hut to replace.
 
6. Baby Dragon
Baby Dragon is really a trouble for my deck. If you believe the Baby Dragon will come to your Arena Tower earlier than its supporters, then you can just ignore it and focus on dealing with its supporters. If other troops come first, then use Knight to bait Baby Dragon and deal with other troops quickly. P.S. Lighting cannot kill a Baby Dragon at same level, but if it can do decent damage to other units, namely Wizard, Musketeer, Second Baby Dragon, then just use it.
 
7. Mortar/ X Bow
If your opponents have Mortar/X Bow in hand, just keep your Lighting in hand so that you can do some damage to Arena Tower at the same time. One thing should be noticed, you can use Tombstone to bait Mortar so that your Arena Tower will be safe.
 
8. Spawners deck
Once your opponents drop Goblin Hut/Barbarian Hut, you can throw Lighting to do some damage to Arena Tower + Goblin Hut/Barbarian Hut. After that, keep Lighting in hand until your opponents drop second Barbarian Hut.
 
9. Others
As long as it’s not a negative trade, you can use spells to defense. Once you hesitate, you may lose the game. For example, you don’t want to arrow Minions and maybe at last your Arena Tower will be frozen and lose a lot hitpoints. Use Goblins to counter Goblin Barrel, Use Arrows to counter Minion Horde, Use Fireball to counter Barbarians. If you use spells properly, you won’t lose the game.
 
On Attack
This deck focuses on defense, so we usually drop Knight as a tanker and have Goblins follow behind. If this push is ignored, the 5 cost combo can definitely destroy an Arena Tower. By the way, Goblins can push Knight to move faster as long as you drop them in right place. Use this combo when your opponents run out of elixir or you have no cards to protect your Arena Tower. The main DPS is Fireball and Lighting. Lighting can kill Wizard/ Witch directly, therefore, if you have enough elixir, you should throw Lighting on them immediately. After that, you can drop Goblin Hut in the same lane to start your push.
Tips: We usually have two Goblin Huts, and the timing to drop second Goblin Hut is important. Just like the picture below, 2 Spear Goblins walk together can throw spear 3 times. But if the 2 Spear Goblins separate, they can only throw spear 2 times.
 
Advantage & Weakness
We take the advantage of defense and wait for pushing. In most cases, if we don’t make any mistake in defense, we will not lose the game. But we are poor at pushing and hard to win if we already lose one Arena Tower. And it’s easily end with draw.

PWE on Gigantic Monetization: "There Will Be No Paywall for Heroes"

Just days ago, Perfect World Entertainment (PWE) announced they will be the western publisher of Gigantic, which is a good news for those fans waiting for this MOBA game. At the same time, many may wonder how will the game go with a new publisher, especially in terms of monetization? To answer those questions, staff from both Motiga and PWE opened an AMA post on Reddit, giving us a rough idea on their plans with Giantic.
PWE is known for extremely aggressive monetization. What do you guys have in store for Gigantic?

Here's the answer from PWE Communication Manager: Our focus as PWE is to help bring Gigantic to market and make it accessible to the players. To pull back to the curtain some more, our goal with Gigantic and the launch is very strongly focused on fun. Let's partner with Motiga to continue the development of something that we as gamers in the company would be proud of and want to play. Monetization will make sense for the game. Our goal is to not have that be predatory to the core values of the game.
For fans who might be worried about the Xbox One version, you have nothing to worry about as "Microsoft is still our partner. We are exclusive on the Xbox One and will still be one of the first crossplay games with Windows 10. We meet with the same folks this week as we did last year. Not too much has changed on that front. MS has worked with PW previously which made all of this a pretty easy transition for all 3 parties." Motiga's VP of Operations said.



There are several weekend public test planned with both Arc, Windows 10, and Xbox One, slated for early-to-mid summer.

A Spooky Hero Defense Haunted Island Review

$
0
0
Do you enjoy tower defenses? Do you enjoy fighting vampires, zombies, and werewolves? Finally, do you enjoy simple controls but a strategic game? If you do, then this may be the game for you!

Hero Defense Haunted Island by Happy Tuesday is a gothic-themed tower defense, game along with a MOBA and RPG that features five “towers” (or heroes, in our case), a short but entertaining single player story, and also a new multiplayer feature that came out in a recent patch! Since the game is still in early access, not many people tend to buy it in those stages. So, here is the question of the day: is this game good? Let’s find out!
 
Story
As I said previously, the story is short and can be done rather easily.  You begin as Jack, a vampire hunter with an awesome crossbow and a big chin. As you continue through, you meet the other four characters: Barrows, Sam Hain, Jane Doe, and Wylde. Each character has their own agenda and reasoning for being where they are in the game, but all of them agree that Count Necrosis, the main antagonist, has to be defeated.

No spoilers, I promise you.
Some of the dialogue lines throughout the story are really emotional at times.

Characters
There are 5 main playable characters that are basically movable towers, each with their own skill set with upgradeable weapons and rich character skill trees to help make them stronger. The skills themselves are very unique. These characters are as follows:

1. Jack:
Jack is a vampire slayer and is equipped with a crossbow. He’s a good ranged offensive character; however, he can only hit one enemy at a time unless he has the ricochet skill.

 2. Barrows:
Barrows is a gravedigger equipped with Holy Water. He buffs nearby heroes with his aura and best against skeletons, but is the slowest of the heroes. Barrows also has a bigger range of view as well.

3. Sam Hain:
Sam Hain is a little girl equipped with pumpkins. She does AOE damage but is kind of weak at the start, and the best against zombies.

4. Jane Doe:
 She is an offensive melee character that is also a reanimated bride, and is best against Frankenstein monsters called Igors. She goes on the plain to hit enemies with a baseball bat.

5. Wylde:
He is a hybrid of a werewolf and human that wields dual blades. He works best against werewolves, and also when he can attack along a straight line
As for other characters such as the bosses, they all have their own voices and are designed to look either very ugly or cool ( depending on your preferences).
 
The five main characters you can play as.

Sound
The music in this game fits the gothic mood, sounding ambient yet full of life with a hint of eeriness. You can hear an owl in the background and also the sounds the sounds of your attacks and enemies. Dialogue in the game is a bit corny, but has good quality and feels original.
 
Town
The town is burnt to the ground almost at first, that is when Jack first encounters the area. In the town, you are able to level up skills for each character, get information from a Town Hall, upgrade and customize your weapons for stats like speed or attack, and exchange gold for blue gems (which you will need later on for upgrades and shrines). You also go here to play the multiplayer mode or the campaign mode.
 
The main town.
 
Gameplay
The gameplay revolves around three basic things: your heroes, enemy waves, and the paths. There will be a specific monster for each wave on a specific path. You must strategically place your hero and fight against these enemies, and make sure they do not reach the end of the path and break the barricade.  If it breaks, you lose. The only winning move is to survive and strategize.
 

The multiplayer gameplay for the game.
 
Graphics 
This game looks pretty, though many would compare it to mobile-style game graphics. It's very cartoony, but also retains a style of originality.  Maps are usually dark and have fog on the edges, thunder and lightning, but a lot of the characters are rather colorful.
 
The jist of the game really. It may seem simple at first, but it gets harder!

Controls
The controls are very simple: it's really a point-and-click system in a way. You drag Heroes on to the map, click on them with your left mouse button, and then pick where you would like the hero to go with the right mouse button. There are also arrow keys you need to press in order to move the camera around the map, and a few keyboard controls for consumables.

Performance
Performance wise the game is very smooth. Though, with many things happening at once you really have to pay attention to your surroundings.  If you seem to be lagging, you can turn down the graphics. The highest is ultra.
 
The graphics settings. Not much, but it gets the job done.

 
Difficulty
The difficulty in this game is rather acceptional, and it is rather challenging. The game does have a steady rise in difficulty as you progress. It is most challenging in the later levels, and you can unlock difficulty from easy to insane. Challenges reward you for each of the ones you go through.
 
There are up to three challenges per map.

 
Multiplayer
The multiplayer feature in the game is rather interesting, in which you go against your opponent to  survive the longest and kill enemies the fastest. If you end up beating a wave before the other player, you can punish them by changing a wave’s ability, making them a massive horde, or changing the horde type. The Rift, Swamptown, and the Infinite Cemetery are the current maps so far for this mode, but most likely there will be more maps later on in this game.
Show them no mercy!
 
 
Matchmaking
You will be matched against players of your rank to battle. Sometimes this will take quite a long time, and other times it will take no time at all. This really depends on what time you are on really. The multiplayer account resets at the start of every season, which is one week long.
 
Playing the wait game ~(qwq~)


Overall Conclusion:
For an early access game, this game feels rather finished. It is also in its open beta for multiplayer as well, so anyone can play the multiplayer mode if they would like to.  There’s not many cons, except long wait times searching for players at the moment. Currently it is priced at S14.99 USD, so it isn’t really overpriced either. It’s very interesting, unique, and enjoyable to play.  

What do you think of the game? Is there anything that could make this game better, or any issues you find with it? Just comment below your opinion!

As a PvE cored game, Elsword: Evolution allows players to choose from three unique heroes and fight against a huge range of opponents in hundreds of quests. Today we will give you a basic guide for these three characters and hopefully it will help you to decide which one would you like to choose before you start to play this game.

Elsword



The most popular character in game. That is obvious because of his name and the game title. Also in most MMORPG, usually first time players like to enjoy swordsman because of defense and offense balance. This will work fine as you don’t have much idea in game while balanced stats will help you learn more about the game and then later you can decide if you are going to focus on damage or defense for survival. Well as for Elsword, he is able to execute swift attacks with one hand or strong attacks using two hands. Being a swordman, he uses fire abilities to bring dynamics in this character to play.



Rena



The archer class in this game. She is an elf who uses bow and arrow to eliminate enemies in range. Unlike with typical archer from other games, Rena can execute multi-kick which will serve as her defense when enemies come closer to her. This character is perfect if you like to kill enemies without them giving a chance to hit you back. Unlike with Elsword, Rena is more technical to use since she is fragile in close quarter fight compare to Elsword but very jolly to play if you want to enjoy a fast-pacing game or have experience in playing this kind of hack-slash game.



Aisha



The mage class in this game who uses both fire and thunder magic. Aside from killing abilities, she can also use buffs to enhance her teammates capabilities in battle. Having Aisha in team is very effective especially when dealing boss fight. Mage is popular as damage dealer in a team. Just make sure to protect them as just like Rena, Aisha is also squishy but with devastating damage, you can cover up it especially if you know how to play your role in a team.

Clash Royale: Best Hog Rider + Miner Decks for Arena 6-8

Since in the next update, Miner will have a 6% hp increase. It will definitely become more popular in Hog Rider decks. If you are lucky enough to get him, just use it to get higher Arena. Ash brings us another Hog Rider deck.


Tips
1. Use Hog Rider + Goblins as an initial move to know what cards are they holding.
2. If the enemy made an initial move, defend your towers by dropping your Inferno Tower to stop them.
3. Once you defended, wait for your Hog + Miner combo to be available and let them roll to knock down a tower. Wait for any counter troops, and deal with it using your Zap. 

The idea is basically to use it like a Hog Rider cycle deck with its very low Average Elixir Cost, but with the Miner. And both the Hog Rider and Miner share similar strategies, in which the tank for your troops such as Goblins, Minions, or Archers, allowing you to deal insane damage. 
Check out how Ash plays it with this deck and some live battles.



Replacement

Baby Dragon - Ice Wizard: Can slow down Arena Tower/Troops/Buildings, allowing your Miner make more damage.

Archers – Fireball: Best used in a horde of troops like Barbarians and Minions. Its damage can wipe them out easily. Can also be used in Towers.

Archers – Barbarians: They will serve as your defenders to any incoming troops ahead. They can also act as bait so that the opponent will use their spell cards. These guys will knock down any beefy tanks ahead of any horde of ground troops.
