The Reddit Mini Tournament is a weekly online Clash Royale tournament organised by Royal Mega Tournaments and held every Sunday . Some of the coolest clash royale streamers stream the reddit mini tournament every week . Reddit Mini Tournament 14 was streamed by abrownbag on Sunday 16 October . The winner from the Top 8 finals bracket was Chickenbob winning a ton of cards from the in-game 1000 player tourney and a special trophy flair for winning the bracket .

Winner’s Decklist

Chickenbob is a known tournament player from the clan Silent and has also won some tournaments using more unusual decks . Chickenbob was able to 2-0 everyone he faced on the top 8 finals bracket to earn himself a flair . Chickenbob uses a quick miner-hog cycle deck to defy the giant poison meta . The decklist is as follows :

Miner

Hog Rider

Mega minion

Lightning

Ice Spirit

Skeletons

Zap

Inferno Tower

Chickenbob rolls a deck to quickly cycle to his win condition . He incorporates lightning in his deck which he uses very effectively to pierce damage through . He uses it in combination with the hog rider to take down defensive buildings that stop the hog rider . Lightning now having a stun effect and it also resets the inferno tower makes great synergy with the hog rider . Also keeping in mind that Chickenbob has experience playing spell cycle decks to victory as well , he could play lightning very nicely to tear down towers and defences . He would know how to manage elixir and also when to play a defensive lightning for value .

He uses two one elixir cost cards – ice spirit and skeletons that you can rotate through easily to get to the cards required . Mega minion is great on defence and has a high damage output for its cost . Another great combination this deck has is hog ice spirit which is a cheap pig push and a 1 elixir freeze that lasts for two seconds and can be extremely valuable at times .

This deck can also split push – you can use the miner on the spot where the other tower can target it and use the hog rider on the other tower (distracted by the miner) . If your opponent has only mini pekka to defend against the miner and hog rider then it a really confusing situation for the opponent and you can outplay him .

Card Of The Week

Our #cardoftheweek was Mega Minion ! As told above it is a great defensive card and has a high damage output for its cost . Its a rare card that can be unlocked from Royal Arena and costs 3 elixir . It is great if it is paired up with a tank on offence . A hot combo with the mega minion is the miner that acts as a semi tank while the mega minion can chip away a ton of damage on the tower . At tournament standards the mega minion can survive even a mirrored fireball and is not vulnerable to zap and arrows like regular minions for the same cost .
