Let’s say you just summitted Mt. Everest. Imagine the adrenaline rush and the honor that comes with it. In the world of Clash Royale, reaching the Legendary Arena brings out the same feelings. It’s the Arena where the best of the best show off their mad skills and compete to reign supreme.
If you too dream of joining the big leagues but can’t seem to rack up those trophies to make the cut, then fear not! This guide is for you. We’re dishing out all the tactics that can get you to the coveted Legendary Arena in Clash Royale in no time. Whether you’re a noob or a pro, you can follow these steps to take your game to the next level.
First of all, it won’t do with a weak deck. You need to construct a killer deck that can withstand the toughest opponents without relying much on luck. And it’s not about having the most expensive, highest-level, or only legendary cards. You need a well-rounded deck that attacks and defends in a balanced manner.
Tower Attack Cards: These cards head straight for your opponent’s towers and deal a lot of damage to them. Without them, your gameplay becomes more defensive, and you may end up taking longer to win. Such cards include Royal Giant, Hog Rider, or Balloon.
Defensive Cards: Only being offensive will do you more harm than good, so it’s an absolute must to have some defensive cards in the mix. This type of cards include Tesla, Inferno Tower, and Cannon.
Supportive Cards: These are great in making sure your troops last longer in the game. These cards include Witch, Wizard, or Baby Dragon.
If you’re not too sure about your deck, you can test them out in Friendly Battles or Clan Wars. Here, you don’t have to worry about losing trophies and can gain some much-needed experience.
Getting to the Legendary Arena is not just about using your best cards and a standard strategy. You need to study your opponent well and strategise accordingly. Clash Royale has continuously evolving decks and strategies. You need to pay close attention to them if you don’t want to get left behind.
You need to start studying the Most Effective Tactics and Strategies (META). A card may be popular at lower levels but may not be so at higher ones. Based on the latest updates, you need to keep a tab of which ones are which and have a proper plan to counter these so that you don’t get caught off guard.
Also, as each game starts, read your opponent’s strategy well. Do they have a fast cycle deck or a slower one? The quick you figure it out, the quicker you can adjust your gameplay to counter it.
Now that you’ve built an unbeatable deck and you’ve started studying the META, you need to make sure the right cards are appropriately upgraded. You need to get your cards to the highest level if you want to reach the Legendary Arena, but that does not mean you upgrade everything you possibly can. You need to do the following:
Prioritise Your Main Deck: Gold is a valuable resource, and the higher upgrade levels require a ton of them. So, focus on upgrading your main deck first, mainly the ones that directly attack towers, then defensive, and finally the supportive ones.
Stay Current with Balance Changes: Certain cards are buffed or nerfed frequently in the Clash Royale balance updates. Be prepared to restrategise if one of your main cards gets nerfed, and you might as well give a card that’s been buffed, if you’ve never tried it before.
Gold and gems are valuable in the realm of Clash Royale. Use them wisely with all your brain cells to reach the Legendary Arena. As mentioned earlie, use gold to upgrade your cards wisely and always have a chest unlocking. Now, it might be tempting to use your gems to open chests faster, but it's better not to give in. Hold on to your gems for special season passes that may give you may more for your investment.
Let’s face it; to get to the Legendary Arena, you need trophies. But only pushing for trophies mindlessly is bound to leave you disappointed in the long run. You need to strategize not only your battles but your entire journey to the top.
Only play when you are focused and know you can give it your all. If you find yourself in a losing streak, step back, relax, rethink, and come back later. Sometimes, continuing under such circumstances may cause a setback. Pushing trophies is important for getting to the Legendary Arena, but it’s not something you should do mindlessly. Climbing too fast without a good strategy can lead to a losing streak, which only sets you back.
When you are so focused on a goal, it might be easy to forget the little things that got you started playing Clash Royale in the first place- things like having fun. Being the best may be a major milestone, but you should not let it consume you. Enjoy the journey all the way, whether you win or lose. Improve your skills, have fun with friends and foes, experiment with new decks, and watch yourself go from noob to pro over time.
Although, the Legendary Arena is a status symbol in the Clash Royale community, remember that every win and every loss will help you get there. Stay calm and stay updated by following the steps above and you could be flexing a new achievement in no time.
