The trifecta pivot poison remains one of the best spells the game has to offer.
Xbow and Mortar- If royale giant use rates decrease we might at last see the x-bow mortar buffs from last updates come in effect and they rise to popularity though probably the most hated cards in game history they are siege and they work wonders!!!!!

There have been some very interesting changes in the lower half of the list but for about 3 weeks running-
The Elixir Collector and Zap have been fighting it out for the top spot, and with recent nerf to miner the collector mostly goes unchallenged with guards doing the defence.
The trifecta pivot poison remains one of the best spells the game has to offer.
Zap was tipped by many to have a drop in use rates after the nerf but the value it provides for just 2 elixir and the stun effect still enough to keep it on top.
The guards are probably the best defence in the game at the moment and thus the armed skeletons get their place among top 5.
Though the royal giant use rates have dropped and air threats have decreased musketeer finds itself as the best ranged troop in game and mini pekka remains the kid with serious bullying issues and its excellence with giants and other tanky troops.
The giant remains the tankiest and most annoying of the troops to deal with followed by Inferno tower as its counter .
Interesting to see miner as the only legendary in top 10 cards in game which is good news for most.
Minions can be seen as only form of air defence and hog rider is not the gem we knew.
Arrows rise in popularity due to recent zap nerf which does effect the princess hard.
Cards to watch out for-
Three musketeer- 3 Weeks back no one used this card but with recent preference of giant and cycle decks and fireball popularity dropping. The split push method has made the 3 musketeer everyone's
nightmare especially in overtime when the decks take a toll on you.
Bowler- Bowler's elixir cost deduction bought to light what an amazing card it is and is equally good in offence and defence with giants in front or other tankier support bowler is lot of value for 5 elixir.
Rage- A three elixir rage spell reduces risk factor involved and helps you cycle faster which is what we all want anyway :p
Ice spirit- already very popular its use rates will only increase with time just because of the value to provides for just 1 elixir.
Decks to use and can be seen on the ladder-
