Best Tips for 20-Win Crown Championship Challenge
Assuming that this Challenge has 3 free entries like the previous one.
Don’t necessarily play your ladder deck unless it also shines in tournament play.
A lot of people run certain decks for ladder with cards that might not work well with the Tournament Cap. This is because some cards give the significant change once leveled up (for example, Royal Giant and Elite Barbarians)
At Tourney Cap, it is essential to either stick to a deck that you have a lot of success with at tourney cap or a proven meta deck that you feel comfortable to play with.
Practice with the deck first and with different match-ups
Lets say you are mainly a ladder player with little Challenge experience. Rather than smacking together a deck that people have success with and playing poorly, practice with clanmates or friends via friendly battles.
Play against different decks and see how you fare vs them.
You might want to practice against hard counters and tough match-ups in general due to the rock paper scissors nature of the meta.
Get as many games under your belt as possible with the deck you plan on running.
Don’t make the first entry your warm-up. Unlike Grand Challenge, where it costs 100 gems to enter, this gives you 3 free entries. To maximize the value, do the best in your free tries rather than wasting them.
Do not use the deck which has many hard-counters
Golem Lightning is undoubtedly a deck that has been very strong for a long time. It is still very viable because of the Tornado nerf making Executioner + Tornado weaker.
However it does have quite a lot of weaknesses: Executioner Tornado being one, 3 Musketeers, (arguably) Bridge Spam, P.E.K.K.A Etc.
Because of this, despite Golem being solid on the ladder, in an all-or-nothing situation like this, where you will ideally want to get 12 wins on the first try, it’s best not risk it by running a deck which has so many hard matchups.
Run an anti-meta deck!
The previous tips have all been about adapting to the meta.
But if you are someone who has experience with Challenges and has an above average level of understanding to the game, you can have a crack at making your own deck!
Remember, meta decks came from someone somewhere. Who knows the next meta deck might be a deck made to counter this meta?
When creating a deck, keep in mind what popular decks this meta has and include counter cards.
Play ASAP!
Now unlike regular Challenges, this challenge has 3 retries.
At the beginning, majority of the player pool will be retrying this challenge.
After the first days, casual players will finish their free entries and will stop playing the challenge. which will reduce the amount of the player pool.
The better players will be the ones who ended up dedicated and retry the challenge until they get 20 wins.
In order to have a high change you will want to play rather early into the challenge. I would say within the first 2 days or so.
Don’t worry about changing your deck.
Now this challenge could have 23+ games, that means you are bound to notice trends.
Because I was facing a lot of Golem Lightning, I decided to run Miner Poison and had a lot of success with the deck because Miner Poison is stronger than Golem if you play properly. It also punishes Elixir Collector easily etc. Also, I faced a lot of Log bait, which was expected since people were playing X-Bow a lot. Also, Log bait with Rocket hard-counters X-Bow.
So Miner Poison punishes beatdown and most control decks as well!
What If you run a deck like X-Bow and people only seem to run beatdown? Try maybe control with P.E.K.K.A or Inferno Tower with work out for an example.
Best Decks for 20-Win Crown Championship Challenge
Below are some decks that I believe will do well in the 20-win Challenge!
Miner Poison v1.0
Miner Poison v2.0
Hog Mega Knight
X-Bow Cycle
X-Bow Cycle v2.0
Splashyard 3.0
3M Ram Miner
Super Bait

You either can’t use it or you just suck in general cause that deck’s really good
Yeah your right if you cant handle a deck you’ve never used before, don’t use it. And don’t blame loses on other people
I honestly don’t think I suck at it. It should be easy.

I have the radiation to support u my friend. And a giant knife to shut you up. XD
(That guy)
Those are meta decks and let me tell you they are really good
You just cant play it.
You’re crazy. Its random
Get good
He said dragon twice, its ok
He told us to run anti-meta decks ONLY if you are and experienced challenge or tourney player. If you understand advanced clash concepts and what decks are going to be post popular, he recommends you to go ahead and destroy them with a deck that has the counters. For the casual players, he advises us to just use the meta.
Where are mods
Wait a moment, you’re really not gonna ban him, just “chill out”?
I think I posted that BEFORE I got mod
oh
4th! No one claimed XDDDDDDDD
No real counter to Hog Rider except for Mini PEKKA, which is pretty expensive.
4=4 and a troop that can’t be countered by spells, also main counter to Hog Rider are still the Minions and Ice Wizard
Nintendo Switch?
Low processing power?
Sup boi
8-0 in 20 win. Wbu man?
9-3… What deck are you using?
Mk miner loon
Oh my gosh, everyone’s suggesting control decks, but I’m bad at ’em! Gonna just use my Golem Bowler…
Sure go ahead
play with what you feel comfortable with! the most important thing against control is if you’re going to go for a push, completely commit and dont let a single miner or bandit cause you to sacrifice elixir on defense when you could have used that elixer to make your golem push stronger
go for it i’m using golem too its too good if played properly
it’s very very very very very very very very very very very very very very nice
How about the Golem Payfecta deck with the Mega Minion and Poison?
I just lost against that deck earlier today…
Wait, so there is another 20 win challenge? How long will it last?
he’s lying, the is another 20win challenge starting in 10hrs around but its called ‘Crown Championship Finals’ and you make your own deck and stuff, if thats what you meant.
Thank you!
Wow
poll: How long did it take CRA to post a guide which you submitted?
0.01 seconds
∞ days
In other words, you want to see if you guide has been rejected or not, am I right?
Pretty much yeah 🙂 I wrote a PEKKA Splashyard deck.
😀 I understand. My second guide was rejected, but then I made some little edits and stuff and resubmitted it and then it was posted!
The Giant Graveyard deck? I liked the deck a lot!!! 😀
Thanks! I was really proud of that deck guide, I spent a lot of time on it.
I’m going to keep trying to edit my deck until it gets posted
2-3 days
It was hard for me, there were various times, some took just 12 hrs, others took 2-3 days
lmao rip me
So there isn’t another one?
Evidence?
Proof?
1: Galadon said the opposite of what you said.
2: What’s toxic about the game?
3: STOP SCARING PEOPLE!!!
seriously
proof, this is either bull crap 95%
poll: what do you think is the most meta card/decks right now? any opinions welcome!
Meta knight
Mega Knight. As for Meta Deck, Mega Hog deck with the Inferno Dragon
Lol I call mega knight the meta knight now
MK hog something
Hog Rider
This guide isn’t helpful tbh…
Why don’t you think so? It gives helpful tips and suggests decks. What would you put in it if you made it? Just asking.
Because I think it shook add placement ideas since.. Just giving a deck won’t help people.. And its possible there clan doesn’t have pros… So they have no one to practice with so the best would teach the placement keys.. And like everything in this guide is whatever anyone would say which is technically just a waste of time to waste your time typing such a long guide for stuff that people already heard over and over
Well, first some of the deck shown in the 20 win decks have guides written about them. (Super Bait, 3M Ram Miner, and their are a lot of x-bow decks very similar.) Plus you don’t have to play those decks with Clan Mates, you could play on ladder, training camp, and even 2v2! Also if you need more tips, you can just go on Youtube or something and look up these decks for more tips. Also, if you need placements for certain cards, you can go into the card section and look at that certain card you want placement for an tips.
No offense but what would help people?
Wow,I feel that you have no sense of respect
don’t worry, CRA has quite a few people over challenger 3, even master
yes it is! most people need these tips
Ehhhhh… These are basic tips
they are for me and you. However, most people on this website are not quite at as high of a skill level so these tips don’t seem as obvious
Can I get 15 or higher wins, with Peeka – MK ?
I got it with that deck 12 wins in Classic challange about 2 weeks ago ?
pekka MK is a bit out of date, but if you are comfortable with the deck, I think you will!
I am 99.9% sure that ur lying
nah im 100% sure they won’t for these reasons:
They’re making millions of dollars per week.
People could sue supercell because they spent actual money on the game
People would hate supercell and never download there games
lies.
Ah… good ol challenge
Fact: never won a challenge
Another fact: spent a total of roughly 800 gems on challenge and still haven’t won one
Same here m8 (sad 11-3 lyf)
I only won two times, one touchdown practice, another classic challenge(I got lucky that time)
U cant lose in touchdown practice, that doesnt count lol
I got 12 crowns from dar
maybe he’s talking about this https://forum.supercell.com/showthread.php/1637553-Are-they-going-to-shut-down-Clash-Royale
i got 16 in the last one, i hope i can hit 20 this time
I can never get up to your skill level…
super cell never said that dimwit
i made a golem deck that actually beats pekka like 90 percent of the time
What’s the deck?
it has inferno dragon you just have to make sure their ewiz is not in cycle or you screwed
oh i dont have inferno drag
🙁
I have lvl 2 inferno dragon
same
I’m currently trying to get the deck posted
Last time I only got 10 wins, but I now have more cards that I can use, so I’m hoping to at least get 12 wins
could u check if my x-bow deck is going to be uploaded? It had plenty of content and stuff but i posted it last saturday
I can’t check that, you would have to ask Rohan, will, or norby
I would be happy with 12 also
I’m happy with 8 :’)
I’m hoping to get over 14 wins, maybe too much, but I’d like to see a number bigger than 12 on the ”best challenge wins” slot.
Well, I don’t think I have enough gems for my skill level to get those 20 wins. So, I guess I’m not dedicated enough.
I think it’s 10 gems after the 3rd entry like last time
there is only one free entry
Wait, ACTUALLY???
yup
yes
TBH, I kinda suck at this. So I might as well quit when I lose three.
got 14 in the last one, but that was before mega knight. meta has changed a lot since then
lol one day, i could be at 37k then the next day 32k. I try out waaaay too many new decks.
the period is an important punctuation mark
might write a guide on my current battle deck. i’m consistently at the 4300-4500 range
I got 20 wins last time with Pekka X-bow and will probably run it again.
noice m8
Dayum! Can you tell me the deck?
20 wins are nice… but PEKKA XBOW? HOW DID YOU PULL IT OFF?? TEACH ME MASTER.
pekka x-bow has been used in ccgs before.
could you tell me the deck?
uhmm something along the lines of pump, ewiz, mega, pekka, xbow, log, ice golem, ice spirit? I think CWA has a vid and i don’t know the exact deck.
Deck please!
if there technology is enough to fix the cancel button, they can’t find the billions of players and refund their money lol
isn’t I meant
Why did you post the tornado variation of the Logbait instead of the original one (with inferno tower)? I feel weaker when playing the tornado version… Especially against beatdown…
I think nado version is more widely used right now.
Yep. The nado version is horrible against tanks. It requires huge amounts of skill wich i don’t have atm.
Pretty much just use a strong defensive deck so that decks of any archetype wouldn’t be too much of a trouble. Sorry, are the cards leveled up to tournament standards, or only leveled down?
Leveled down to tourney standards
That sucks. Oh well.
Oh, that sucks for me, but it’s fair
Time to bring out my reliable PEKKA miner skelly barrel!
xbow cycle v.2 OOOOOOHHHHHH YYYYEAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH……….
is v1 or v2 better tho?
As an experienced X-bow player, I would say v2 it better. Dispite not having a good tank killer, Rocket gives you a second win condition but it would also give you a counter vs another X-bow deck.
for xbow v1, the deck is stable and easier to play in my opinion, but you have to rely solely on xbow or tie, whether v2 has rocket as the second win con. your choice. as for miner poison, I prefer v1.
It really depends on your play style, if you like having 2 win cons yet worse defense, go for v2, if you like having less win cons, but a more solid defense, go for v1
Last time i got until 7 wins….
Sad lyf
thats actually pretty good considering, mathematically, the average wins somebody will get is 1.5 wins (my model was 2 ppl, a winner and a loser. the loser loses after 3 losses and the winner gets 3 wins, therefore making an average of 1.5 avg wins)
That seems wrong. . .
Since every match results in 1 winner and 1 loser, the ratio of average wins and losses is 1:1
3 wins, 3 losses is this the average.
yea, thats exactly what i was saying, which means 1.5 wins is the average.
5th after repost?
Is it good to use classic logbait w/ the Inferno tower?
Of course go for it if you think it’s good for challenges
Got 13-1 and forgot to play ’till the challenge ended…
i dont have miner and almost all decks contains miner ;(
sucks
yeah ikr
Last time I lost to Oxalate in my 17th match then I played with a random guy who absolutely dominated my deck (xbow Ice Wiz Nado vs some weird P.E.K.K.A deck) and then I went on to 18 wins,I faced Devansh(ya the one who cheated ) and lost
proof plz?
no proof lol…..
I have serious doubts about you facing two famous players in one challenge.
yeah i was thinking that only i mean how??
but I did I even am saying I lost
He didn’t cheat
losing to oxalate is an honor man
Warning – Hog mega knight won’t work here!!!
mega hog deck is the only reccomended deck here my bad acct can actually use because my bad acct doesnt have ice wiz, ewiz, log, graveyard, miner, bandit, sparky, or lumberjack
i feel ya man
yea
Yeah, but it didn’t work well for me. Until I switched to xbow.
Facepalm me.
it worked until 11 wins
Well for the most part (up to 13 wins for me)
Time to pull out my Giant S-Bow deck
new card? lol. did you mean sparky xbow?
Nope, Giant Skeleton and X-Bow
Last time I saw it was only 1 free entry with 10 gem re-entries
yea i checked its only 1 free entry
on this challenge do i run my MK deck or x-bow siege/control deck
run MK deck, siege will get countered by logbait with rocket.
and after 3 months comment is still not deleted
Which easiest deck to understand and play
probably the last one, the logbait
for me it was MK hog
1/35000 chance, EZ
Relatable
LOOOG BATE
Drat I got 6-3 on the free entry
so far im at 4-0
I got 11-3 on mine, which is better than last time but still not over 12 wins:(
I used MK hog to get ez wins, and now I’m 3-0 with pekka/or mk gob hut miner control. both of those rule
me to
guys, I know I’m not the poll guy here, but I was so curious:
poll: how many wins did you get on your free try?
10-3
5-3
10-3
11-3, then 10-3, 12-3
14
Makes me a noob, but 6-3
haven’t played
why?
cuz i don’t want to, and i got 2-1
13-3
20-2
Ok it was like 7-3. But that’s becaus of luck. I have the skill. In fact, I make zero mistakes.
whoa really? just for proof, what is your clan and in-game name?
That was my dishonest claim. Check for the honest one.
0-3 because everyone used inferno dragon and I was testing out my MK deck
And I only have 3530 trophies
no 3 free entries 🙁
How much does the second entry cost?
10 gems
what a roast
Nah I’m pretty sure that’s just a random fact
I can’t believe we’re having this conversation
Yea, I got 20-2 on it. Tried a second time. 1-3. The third loss is bull crap because it wasn’t skill that cost me, it was luck, because I could not do anything to win. Yes, I am that perfect. Probably defective device.
12-3. The game doesnt want me to have a new record.
