    “As history shows us, players did not like their precious wood being touched”💀💀💀

    As a log lover, the idea of lumberjack cutting it but also being distracted by the log is something i really love and it's a sweet concept.

    Me watching 45 minutes of log deployments

    My favorite part is how genuinely excited gratz gets over the notion of unique lumberjack/log interactions, and I wholeheartedly love the idea. Would be perfect for a valentine's day update too imo.

    the log's legendary ability is to always be good

    17:00 I love this phrasing so much. "They(The Bats) were the only troop that died to the zap but not the log *at an equal level*" If only the log could be leveled higher than the bats. That could give the Log the edge it needs to kill bats.

    The log is like Landorus-T in competitive pokemon. It's not a bad thing that it's on every team, because it checks the actually broken threats and isn't frustrating to play against. It's essentially just the glue of the metagame

    Haven't played Clash Royale in a very long while, but I still really enjoy your documentaries. You are able to make a 40 minute story about a card engaging even for someone like me who isn't in touch with the current state of the game, which is really impressive. Keep up the good work!

    Bro’s the definition of ‘Quality then Quantity’

    Bro we have NEEDED a channel like yours. I have watched every video you have made now, I recently rediscovered your channel and wanted to take a look into the past of clash royale, remembering when all of these changes took place gave me such nostalgia for better or worse.
  • @Vodahmien
    I remember playing this game back in high-school, your channel has been bringing me back so many memories I had playing this with my friends and how we raced to 3k trophies back when that was the legendary arena lol seriously keep making these videos man. On the topic of the log tho, it may be a simple card that doesn't do much on paper but it does enough. Clearing out fodder enemies is always a major important role and that half second it can give you when it knocks something back can be the difference between a tower going down or staying up.

    Adding onto the lumberjack idea, i think that whenever the executioner attacks cards like bandit and rascals, the entire match should pause when the bandit is at 1 shot range and a public execution with either a noose or a guillutine should be erected to spread fear amongst the populace and teach kids to not do the crime, if they dont wanna lose all the time they'd have if they were to not do the crime
  • @superluigi6423
    What could be interesting is not really a card in particular history but in general a "why cycles decks are so good in the meta" (going to the history of how the cycle decks over the years became stronger and stronger)
  • @4Rys454
    I don't understand. I don''t play this game anymore, I never dived too in-depth into the metrics of this game competitively, yet I will BINGE this 40 minute long video for some reason. Your voice is hypnotic, I have no other explanation. Thank you for making so many engaging videos!
  • @nouche
    There was one very random nerf to The Log: sometime around 2021 (IIRC), they made it so that killing a Goblin Giant with it would not kill the Spear Goblins anymore, unlike what still happens to the Battle Ram to this day.
  • Amazing video as always! I have a recommendation, you could use some of Umineko's OST in your video, it is a visual novel that, for some reason has a lot of good musics that can easily fit in some parts of your video! Good work as always!
  • It’s a good day when Gratz uploads. And clearly the internet agrees with this positive sentiment. Keep it up Gratz you should be proud.
  • @icycrybaby
    I love so much this man documentaries, i already watched ALL of them, even i dont playing Clash Royale anymore. Its just too good and his storytelling is amazing. This makes me want to make these documentaries too about other niches. Love you Gratz❤
  • @Lenon_CR
    Been watching you from the start. Absolutely incredible content, the effort put to research and edit all this is incredible!
