How to Rank Up in Clash Royale

This guide is just an extra treat for our Premium users to help them seal the gaps in their gameplay and win even more matches. I'll add more mechanics and skills as they come to me.

The ability to fully internalize all of these fundamentals is what makes players good. Let's say each tip will give you a 1.2% win rate boost. With all 20 down, you could be looking at almost a 25% increase in performance, and with all 20 mastered, who knows how much better you'd be.

Oh, and, most importantly, use Deck AI. You can look at our Discord server for recent reviews and see the performance difference between average players and our premium users—while I was working on this guide, someone literally said Deck AI helped them get 600 trophies in 24 hours and reach 9000 when they were previously hard-stuck, just from using the Workshop page alone.

Let me know how it goes on Discord!

Basic Mechanics & Strategy

(I know many of the fundamentals—like exact tile placements, troop kiting, or counting elixir—have been covered extensively in tutorials on YouTube. The tips below also might seem pretty basic, but they're slightly more advanced in practice, and you should double-check them to see if you are regularly thinking about these things when you're playing. If you master these, you're virtually guaranteed to be able to compete at a high rank.)
