The starting hand—the four cards randomly selected from your eight-card deck at the beginning of the game—is entirely dictated by a Random Number Generator (RNG).

This article explores the controversial role of starting hands and how to survive the chaotic first fifteen seconds of a match.

When Luck Fails You

For example, imagine you are playing a deck with a Cannon and a Log to defend against Hog Riders and Goblin Barrels.

You are forced to awkwardly defend a fast, aggressive threat using heavy spells or expensive win conditions, resulting in a terrible elixir trade and massive tower damage.

• If you have a terrible starting hand, play completely passively.
• Identify your cheapest 'cycle' card in your opening hand.
• Taking 1000 tower damage is better than losing the entire game instantly.

The First Play Gamble

You are essentially gambling that the opponent's specific defensive counters are buried deep in their 7th or 8th card slot.

However, if the opponent happens to have the perfect hard-counter in their opening hand, your aggressive first play will be effortlessly destroyed.

Embracing the RNG

It is the necessary sprinkle of chaos that makes the genre endlessly replayable.

You cannot control the shuffle, but you can control your reaction to it.
