Thank you so much for having me on the Channel again, Ash! It's always my pleasure 💜

[gems_cr]

always great to see sk on the channel!

[ocgsage]

I hate when people say xbow takes no skill, the amount of knowledge you need to have is under appreciated, I think people really say that because they rarely play against xbow and don’t know how to counter it

[SpicyNuggs]

At 11:41, that was a nice fireball timing on the Tesla by the opponent!
At 12:40, cool trick pull of Hog out of range of Xbow with Tesla!

The amount of piggies and eq are unhealthy for the game

I got the most undeserved win against an x bow Queen deck today.
I was running a miner eq mirror deck (I saw Morten use it), I didn’t intentionally run a deck to counter x bow, I just wanted another miner deck to play and it kinda just had that nice little bonus I felt kinda bad 😅
I’ve been openly opposed to how they reworked mirror, I think it was not the change they should’ve done at all, but a mirror meta is very, very interesting to be fair.

Going off of how SK said it took a couple years to master X-bow, It’s the same for me. It took me about 1-2 years to master it myself.

[angelarista]

Sk is amazing and deserves more recognition tbh

[thepepperguy]

Man i still watch your channel even though I quit playing the game months ago when I had our first kid. Keep ‘em coming!

[anonymouskid]

I want mirror nerfed to the ground. It can’t be good without being op, and as anyone who faces ebarbs knows it’s better a card be dead rather than broken.

[Mystic]

I have been playing since less than 2 years and I started using RG cycle because I thought RG is like hog cycle and bait means it is a never dying off meta decj and also because I hated facing xbow and RG is a good matchup for xbow
In just less than 2 years I am able to reach 6590 as my personal best

[StevenP]

I rarely see Xbow in legendary arena as of thought I never would say that

[Snakob]

SK is so well spoken. his voice alone could make him a lot of money if we wanted to get into that type of career

[thealbertlynch]

Always love some x-bow ash! I'm going splashyard only as well this year, really learning !

[janschnyder]

That was definitely expected. Should be very obvious after seeing that changes on paper alone... most peoples just suck at predicting what's going to happen. The first thing I said when I saw the balance changes was "pump is viable again and mirror will be strong"

[kevinhaynie]

Thank you Ash for all the love you share! ❤

[Alice]

i've been playing xbow 3.0 for almost 2 years, still king lvl13 but i still beat hog eq players at 6.8k, i think xbow isn't that good for new players but still it can be very strong if people knew how to play it...

[kozmokrisp]

I think mirror will define its own archetype. In the future maybe we'll get 1hour of the best mirror player in the world? 🤔

[juxoq]

Elixir pump buff probably increased the use of rocket as well.

[SkisnwOnTop]

i had an idea for an xbow deck. xbow as win condition, eq as spell (to kill cannons, teslas, etc., log, hunter for tanks, skellys for cycle + fire spirit for cycle and splash
