Firecracker is gay. I’m gonna settle this, once and for all.
Firecracker is a common card that costs 3 elixir to deploy. It is probably an idea based on Penny from Brawl Stars. This is because, when Firecracker’s initial projectile reaches max distance or hits something, it splits into more attacks that spread out in a cone. So, how exactly is this gay?
That’s not the reason for Firecracker being gay. Firecracker has one, or maybe 6, annoying factors that make her gay.
The first of these, many find to be the most annoying: The Recoil mechanic. Firecracker recoils back a tile and a half after firing. This makes it harder for melee units to reach and kill her, obviously, but it can also make it so that the opponent misses a spell intended to take her out. Now, this is probably the most heated part of the argument, but here’s my perspective: Players often try to get the most value possible out of their spells, and Firecracker just makes that way too difficult for a 3-elixir common card. As a 3-elixir ranged card, she should die to log, but doesn’t, just because of a meaningless consistency with Archers, a completely different troop. Anyway, Firecracker’s main counter is Arrows but good luck dealing with a 1 HP firecracker who avoided the third wave of arrows because of Recoil. Or maybe it dodged a fireball, in which case is way more threatening. Poison also doesn’t do a good job since it’s hard to keep Firecracker in the poison for long due to her high move speed compared to other ranged units and her recoil.
Firecracker dodging spells isn’t the only problem. Players know that this card is gay and will cause problems if not taken care of early, and because of this they target their spells at her as soon as possible. But because of the urgency that plagues the players’ minds, they make mistakes out of quick reflexes and pressure. For example, say your opponent used Goblin Gang some distance from your opponent’s Firecracker. In a frenzy, you make an attempt to hit both with your log, but instead miss the Firecracker entirely and half the Goblin Gang. This happens more than you think.
Another aspect of Firecracker is its rarity, and its evolution. Let’s address them one by one:
First, I think Firecracker, along with Elite barbs and Royal Giant, is a card that should not be its current rarity but rather be a rare, or maybe even an Epic.
Let’s consider the Little Prince, Dart Goblin and the Princess. All of these are 3-elixir long ranged cards and are NOT common rarity. I think this is a case of Supercell trying to make consistency with Archers. They’re too obsessed with the idea that Firecracker is a pissed-off Archer that they’re willing to leave it as a gay midladder overleveling card forever. Bro, what the fuck is this logic? Dart Goblin is a goblin with a blowpipe and a gay mask and it gets rare rarity. An Archer with a bazooka and a fancy hairband is the same common rarity? What the fuck.
Take Musketeer and Little Prince (Without the ability). They are 3 elixir cards that have long range. The Prince has a ramp-up, so it kinda deserves to be Champion with the ability (even though it’s still one of the most basic troops in this context). But the musketeer is the most basic troop ever in the history of Clash Royale. It’s so simple and is so basic and baseline, and yet it’s rare. While Firecracker, a ranged unit with a special quirk and a unique ability, is treated as a common. Why the fuck is this dumbass a common? Like at least make it rare so people can’t fucking overlevel it to 15 as easily.
Its Evolution was the final straw for most people. Upon release, it was considered to be the gayest evolution by far and was TOP-TIER. They nerfed its crown tower damage. To give you some context, Electro Giant is the only troop whose Crown tower damage is reduced. And that’s a win-condition melee card. A ranged defensive card getting a crown tower damage nerf is unprecedented. This is a good representation of its gayness. Even after multiple nerfs it’s still pretty gay since it no longer dies to arrows.
To wrap this up, Firecracker has 2 unique abilities and is still a common, which makes it subject to overleveling and easy Mid-ladder abuse. Please nerf this gay card.

GOLDEN KNIGHT BECAME TRANSGENDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! D:
So little prince has this line that goes, “Whaddup? Future king over here.”. But that’s wrong. Why? Because we already have prince and dark prince, who I’m assuming are older than little prince, so little prince is wrong. In medieval times, the oldest son of the king would be the heir, or future king. That would mean it’s either dark prince or prince. Ik with princess and all, it gets complicated, but I’ll cover that later. Comment for more theories!

Less than 1 minute of the new season starting and with me watching 100 videos of Evo battleram leaks, I used 6 of my Evo shards to get Evo battle ram and am struggling to find "value" with it, the past few days I've been trying to see where it works best and with cycle it does not work well, many of you have faced my "skibidi Evo rg cycle" deck and have gotten shit on with it, Evo battle ram does not. p.s. buff xbow
