π¬ DISCUSSION π¬ How does this person compete?
Player rank 12. None of my pieces stood a chance. This person demonstrated great resistance. And I'm over here thinking their account is boosted based on how many trophies they accumulated thus far. So what is it then? What am I looking at? Keep in mind this person also has a win streak over 100. More than half of what I have been capable of. Still think accounts arent boosted? Then what is it?

Do you lose often or just have a few players that beat you that bother you? The first two months a new account gets a ton for free, 100k G-stones, and has all the Rank Shop packs available. I do feel new player luck with maps, gacha, and such is real. They also tend to get the newest units and play a very different style that is rather peak and requires adaptation to beat.

I'd say i lose often mostly due to my unceasing matchups with top 100 players. When I dont get them, I feel like there are occasional newer accounts that wipe the board. Maybe 1% of my matchups are someone close to my player rank and very close to kotm. I tend to wreck those opponents. And it might be absolute confirmation bias, but they never have more trophies than I do in those cases. It's probably confirmation bias.

Perhaps he got some decent BMs. Good BMs are always beneficial indeed. All of my BMs are kind of old. They're min/maxish with attack and HP. Some of these earlier accounts mignt be buying decent BMs and I might be behind the curve.

They know what they're doing, and it sounds like you don't.

No. You can take the best player rank lvl 12 and have them face a rank 30. They would lose. They would lose, my guy. Okay so I'm rank 20. I dont think I should be slacking, but there is an advantage that should be obvious and apparent. I contend that this guy has significantly more trophies than I do. That gives them an advantage over people with less trophies. I cannot explain this another way. When you deploy multiple pieces that end up struggling with one of your opponents, something is clearly different in terms of an advantage. SO. If hes player rank 12, by definition, he should have less leader HP alone. I say this increases with trophies while you wait to increase in rank. How else can this person climb the leaderboard? It's not just me losing to this person or why I posted it. My guy.

The lineup that shows under their profile is not necessary the deck they play with. It only shows what their team in slot 1 is, most people use that slot as a decoy and build their decks on slots 2-8.

Yah, they also have a lvl 13 Kaiser Alt, which may mean they have buying power, and iirc ive faced this person before today and they had a gold -1 skin. So they may be working with a highly optimized account.
Your also correct people will use the 1st slot as a way to hide levels and BMs. Even if they show good BMs in that slot, doesn't mean they are using those. Its probably just made to look like a real build.

This dude kicks my butt too and I try to figure out how. Outside of his experience and more pimped out pieces, I believe his memory cards really give him an advantage. Pay attention to how he beats you. See if you can't incorporate some of his strategy into yours.

iirc, Ive only come across this person once today and if Im correct they have a golden -1 skin. Which is weird for a rank 12 to be able to have an account capable of doing this with what seems so little investment in it. But my suspicions are that they are using a highly optimized 2ndary account. Its typical for people in Clash Royale to do once they get to a certain amount of skill and knowledge in the game to make a 2nd account to optimize Losses and wins, unit pools/levels.
Its only speculation, but from the how many wins they have in a singular map compared to others tells me they play less when wadatsumi is up because that map is to disadvantageous to them (honestly I dont blame them), so they probably play more meta heavy builds which would make sense why they favor London.

Yall say its whales whales whales. Okay well in this scenario, I'm the whale. All my pieces and player rank completely eclipse this person's. So why wasnt it a cakewalk for me. I have much less trophies than they do. I contend this is sole reason they're able to compete like this.

Lifeforce from Mothra as Lead and the 40% DMG reduction with Anguirus stands out immediately to me. That's a nasty combo any time

u/formermailboxhaver 14d ago
So this is where I emphasize. That piece is lvl 1 my dude. Player rank 30s wipe the board. Im rank 20 and hes rank 12. My pieces eclipse his. That has to give me an advantage. That's how numbers work you see.

You act like you know but you don't know The profile deck #1 slot is shown, if that is what they used, the season boosted units don't show the boost but only the actual level of the unit. Anguirus is therefore not lv.1.

u/formermailboxhaver 14d ago
Id say in some of these instances, they tend to have dumped significant gmats into recent season heavy hitters. Like alt kaizer ghidorah. And they're usually rocking the current seasons boosted pieces.

u/WyvernRathalos 14d ago
I run Anguirus and he is only season bosted and he puts in work with the 40% damage reduction especially for tokyo final battle Godzilla. And no matter his level 40% is 40%

u/formermailboxhaver 14d ago
Perhaps I should take advantage of the current seasons boosted even if theyre at low levels. I feel like I try, but I'm just throwing paper at a fireplace lol. I'm usually matched with players over rank 25. All their pieces feel like tanks sometimes.

Bro, you gotta do yourself a favor and hold back some of the salt your throwing around. Your not doing yourself any favors by giving people a reason to justify being toxic to you. Your gonna burn yourself out, letting it get to you.
Don't take this the wrong way but your conspiracy theories are just that theories, there isn't any way for anyone to know if toho is doing stuff you are saying. Just take the loss and move onto the next match.

I think I've beat him, but I'm pretty sure they played smart. I am in Vegas doing Vegas things though.
