congratz i made ur dream come true haters will say its rigged <| sep |> I watch this one every so often just to remember how it successfully predicted what Black Friday would become years later . <| sep |> I didn ' t bother to look up how much a level 12 RG does , lol sorry . I think 500 damage is a pretty good amount , though not excessive . Taking 500 damage for being 35 elixir behind isn ' t that crazy . RGs damage has been nerfed by over 20 % in the last few patches , so that lvl 12 RG is hitting for what a lvl 10 RG used to The thing is , you ' re only responding with an inferno tower and nothing else . If you ice spirit to respond to his zap , he would never get through your inferno tower . If you defend with barbs , or other units , sure he hits your tower but now you have a counterpush the opportunity to splitpush with it . It ' s honestly really similar to people sending a miner onto your tower by itself . Sometimes I ' ll just tank it , but if the miner is too over leveled I ' ll have to respond . Also , I play hog cycle decks , so sometimes if I catch my opponent with low elixir or out of defensive cycle my 8 elixir push would deal 2000 damage .
