I think the balance changes that were done to address the Three Musketeers in 2018 (buffing their counters, nerfing their synergies, introducing new cards that counter them) affected Elite Barbarians quite negatively as well, which was why they dropped so much during that time.

I remember perfectly how broken they were. People started running e-barbs and barbarians just to stop them

SAME 😂 that was a dark time fr. Those cards were so OP

I remember those days, I always played Giant + Witch, so those were pretty rough times. But eventually I started baiting the elite Barbarians by playing a witch behind a tower, naturally E barbs players would instantly play them on the other lane, then I would kite them to the Witch (to the skeletons to be precise) with my Giant.

The work you put in shows every single time broski appreciate your depth no one does it like you.

These documentaries of CR are awesome man, they're so fun to binge watch! Thank you 🎉

I remember adapting to this era by making an anti-ebarb deck. Bowler was the main defense, with an ice golem in front to last longer, and garveyard freeze made the push. Ebarb players had no patience, so the tough bowler would push them back until the rage wore off. I gotta admit staying true to my principle and never using this braindead toxic card until they received the deadly nerf, but on that last day before the bc, when I finally took them for one round, I was stunned at how op it was to play them

I remember this. My deck, like many, was designed to counter elite barbs as I was no high level and didn't have the time to be one. I did just fine for a while, but by the time they added things like the executioner and mega knight, I was already too used to my anti elite deck and had invested too much into it. At that point I quit playing. Came back last year and wow there's a lot I missed.

Recently discovered your channel and now playing CR again after long break as a old player. Keep it up

Never say “once and for all” with balance. All it takes is the right balance change to another card-or a new card to be released entirely-in the future for the e-barbs’ balance to get challenged once more. The domino effect really _can_ strike from anywhere, and this might also by why Supercell wants to hold off when implementing a balance change until the other components (i.e. changes to other related cards) are ready as well. That and the fear of community outrage. Never *EVER* underestimate the potential consequences of a backlash. Releasing the same things but in a different order can definitely impact how people will react, how angry and/or relieved they’ll be, and if players will classify your rework attempt as a hidden buff or a dumb nerf. Nerf a card but forget to touch its counters? The other way around? Yeah~ The use/win rates and all the associated meta stats will eventually-and quite quickly-even out and settle on the same values regardless of balance order. However, getting a couple of weeks/months of an unbearable toxic nightmare (on mid or top ladder) can leave a seriously bitter taste. And history will remember it if you needed to do an emergency nerf.

great video as always! i would love to see the miners journey in the arena, i would be quite intresting

It's cool to see new clash royale channels pop up and do well like yours is right now

Your videos are always informative and a great listen. I hope eventually there's a card history for all the cards in the game. Maybe a 3 balance change minimum? It would also be intriguing to find if there are any cards that have stayed relatively the same since release.

As always great video. I can't wait for the next video on the update. And for card history i think it would be a great time for a history of the most nerfed card ever. Miner

Glad to see you getting sponsored!!! Your videos are so good

I haven't played this game in years but i remember the absolute fear and dread a person feels when they see this card getting deployed I for one also used this card a lot too lol

Great video! Funny thing is I remember EBarbs being incredibly toxic, but my least favourite clash era was by far goison (Giant + Poison meta) when poison used to slow and kill. I think it was before ebarbs released and that destroyed ladder for me haha. :)

I've been playing since launch and last year i was thinking about what a good idea it might be a yputube channel covering the history of the game, and here it is. Very nice videos man, keep it up

I just suscribed, these videos are really interesting to me, I've been away from the game for years but came back a little while ago and I'm liking it so far.

E-Barbs have been pretty balanced since June 2021. Before that, they were weak at even levels but MENACE WHEN OVERLEVELED. But Supercell loves these type of extreme scenarios.

Really good video, I loved seeing the history of E-Barbs and MAN am I happy that I never saw them overpowered. Anyways you might have forgotten to mention the rage range/damage rework and how that possibly affected E-Barbs.

i havent played clash royale seriously since 2016, but for some reason i still really enjoy your videos. i think that means you do a really good job :)

Love your vids man, keep up the work

It's interesting watching videos like this about the history of CR because I get to learn so much about the meta environment that I didn't care about back then. I remember playing in 2016 in high mid ladder and not having a significant issue with e-barbs at all, even though I was usually underleveled as a f2p player. Maybe it was just the deck I was running, idk.

I remember when Elite Barbarians were the terror of the earth. When they moved very fast 😂

Then add the fact your opponent has Level 13/14 E-Barbs against your Level 9 deck.

We definitely need a video on the zap as I remember the card as a menace and nowadays don't see anyone using it in mid ladder

I think you’re the only person on KZread who does video essays on clash royale’s history, I love this style of content so definitely keep it coming 👍

It wasnt mid and high ladder tho… it was mid ladder and whale ladder. Mid was casual f2p up to sweaty low budget spenders… High ladder was whales dropping hundreds to thousands of dollars to max out a card day 1. So when it came to community backlash, it was justified as only whales were playing a balanced game, while 99% of the player base was still at day 170 out of 215 to max out fireball, their first max card.

I was in the range of super high elite barb usage during that time and it was hell. However, I'm grateful because it gave me the idea for the deck I have used ever since, my Pekka Freeze deck.

The biggest mistake is a casual game was heavily treated as an esport when it could never be. The top 100 leaderboard is not even 0.01% of the game. Rest of the playerbase got ignored for too long and suffered for it

I remember back in 2016 when ebarbs were literally everywhere at 3000-4000 trophies....never again😅

Tbh if I were to rework the e-barbs I would make it so that the e-barbs have the same speed as the regular barbarians but they get a temporary special rage effect that boost their speed by a lot if they took out a unit. That way, it could be used to kill big units then the e-barbs would Get their high speed boost to counter push the enemy. Also, considering that the e-barbs are raged when they kill a unit, the rage spell wouldn’t effect it anymore.

People cry about Elite Barbarians which can be countered by like more than half the cards in the game but if I dare say that Goblin Barrel or Firecracker are absolutely cancerous I get hated on lmao

I remember when those came out with the buff, it was the strongest unit in the game. People would just drop them and you feared for your life because only a few units could not even counter them, but slow their progressions. They were tanky, fast, and dealt so much damage, you could just drop them on a tower and if the oppenent didn't defend, it was gone in seconds... well, even if the player defended your tower was still gone

I haven't played clash royale for almost 4 years now and goddamn that triggered ptsd. The amount of times I've seen those suckers just as I launched a nice attack on the other side was so frustrating. and not only with just rage, some played the lumberjack before them, which were essentially 3 of them with a delayed rage spell included...

Listening about this game is more fun than playing it right now. Good video

I remember refusing to upgrade my E barbs because they were so strong! They are still lvl1 today

I quit clash Royale like 5 years ago and I don't care about it now, but you still manage to make vids about it that interest me, so good job! You're one of the best niche historian youtubers I've found out there.

Yea, as a seven year player, the e barbs rage with RG was rough to say the least. Remember get very frustrated abt even trying to counter them when my skarmy would just get zapped away. It was oppressive.

This brings me back when i was using e-barbs + lumberjack. I climbed so fast with thjs combo almost makes me wanna redownload the game but after browsing the reddit i dont feel it anymore

I always thought they might benefit from the opposite of the twitter poll. 9 cost, 3 barbs, longer spawn timer. They wouldn’t be good, but it would help isolate them from a lot of the synergies that made them so oppressive

In my opinion, elite barbs only got balanced when the movement speed was changed. That was my very first thought back then when the trailer and card came out and I always thought that it was very obvious what had to change about them

I still remember when the electro wizard came out with his own challenge. EVERYONE was just using an e-barb deck in it (me included ofc) and every game was just focused around e barbs and how to play around em.

I played during the 2016 elite barb meta, I believe I used royal giant and the time but never really liked elite barbs. I believe once they got buffed my deck replaced some defensive card (mini pekka I think) to pekka and it countered elite barbs very effectively.
