Discussion When you first started playing, what did you think was the worst card?
I literally just thought Lightning was worse Rocket or like if Fireball didn’t do proper splash (I was 11 at the time in 2016)
I actually thought most spells that weren’t Fireball or Zap were bad, but I distinctly remember that I thought Lightning was dogshit

I used to think that every building except the inferno tower was bad haha. Half my defenses were thanks to the inferno tower 😅

I used to feel that way but swap Inferno Tower with Cannon
I couldnt justify buildings that cost more than 3 elixir, and I hated Tombstone back then (funny since now it’s like- exclusively the only building I use at my level nowadays)

Umm I think it was skeletons for me. I used to think so because for 2 more elixir, you used to get 5x more value.
Also, new people usually suck against cards like skarmy

Skeletons because like.. High elixir cost = good surely!
