Is Ram Rider Limited?
As one of the most aggressive and destructive cards in the game, the Ram Rider is a popular choice for many Clash Royale players. But with its high HP and ability to charge around the battlefield, is this card limited in its possibilities?
Maximum Number of Ram Riders
According to Clash Royale’s official documents, a player can only have a maximum of 26 Ram Riders on the battlefield at any one time, assuming they are in a fully upgraded set of Army Camps.
Countering the Ram Rider
But what can opponents do to counter such a formidable card? With its ability to charge up to the enemy’s structure and destroy it, players can’t simply sit and wait for the Ram Rider to do its thing.
- Skeleton Army: This card can prevent all but one hit with its numerous skeletons, neutralizing the Ram Rider.
- Goblin Gang: A swarm of cheap, low-damage creatures can take out the Ram Rider with sheer numbers and constant attacks.
- Glass Cannons: Using a heavy-hitting attack, like the Mega Minion or the Inferno Dragon, can take down the Ram Rider quickly, as its HP is nothing compared to these powerful shots.
Elixir Dependent Decks
Fast decks are often elixir dependent, meaning players rely on their opponent generating elixir to set up a counter. Faster decks tend to have larger armies and more aggressive builds.
- Beatdown Decks: These more defensive decks focus on chipping away at the opposing side with a slow accumulation of damage, often setting up a powerful counter using heavy troops.
Cyclers and Swarm Attacks
Lighter decks generally consist of cheaper, medium-HP troops, but this comes at the trade-off of being more mana-hungry. However, the benefits of cyclical plays and swarm-like attacks often outweigh the expense of additional elixir generation.
Conclusion
Given its destructive capabilities and its relatively low elixir cost, the Ram Rider could be seen as a good value in the game.
However, the limitations stated in this article, concerning its maximum number and countertactical measures, should raise the question: is it limited? The answer stands, but it’s always about balancing the Ram Rider with your deck’s overall strategy and elixir distribution.
