‘Clash Royale’ League Challenge Now Live, Offering Prizes and Pro Esports Opportunity

TouchArcade Rating:

The latest major esports challenge for *Clash Royale* (Free) is now live in the app. The **Clash Royale League Challenge** will help players potentially get involved with professional CR teams by winning the challenge. The first step is winning this challenge. Players need to get 20 wins before they lose three times in order to complete the event. From there, they can sign up for other tournaments only open to 20-win players, in order to draw attention from professional *Clash Royale* teams looking for players for the upcoming Clash Royale League.

What is the Clash Royale League? Well, it’s a team-based league as opposed to the individual-based championships that Supercell hosted in 2017. How will teams work in a league-based format for a game whose competitive format is 1v1? Supercell might use a format where teams’ individual players match up against other teams, or even have round-robin formats where teams could have rosters where they only send a few players into matches against the other team, trying to find the best matchups with players’ decks and strategies. Or, it can be something similar to *Hearthstone* (Free) or fighting games where the team sponsors the individual in league contests. Team affiliation will also help give viewers something to latch onto, as opposed to just individual players.

If you want to potentially go pro in *Clash Royale* in 2018, your road starts today in the Clash Royale League Challenge, and runs through March 19th. You get three free entries, and there are in-game prizes including treasure chests and cards for playing.

Good luck trying to get 20 wins in the challenge, as you’ll have to be really good against the other opponents facing the challenge, and one or two mismatches might sink you. But if you want to play *Clash Royale* professionally, well, nobody said becoming an esports star was gonna be easy.

      So the game of the week is a game that’s not even out... must have been a pretty crappy week for games.

      1. Milotorou

        While its true that it wasnt the biggest week for games, I think its simply the fact Fortnite is literaly taking the gaming world by storm, seeing such a title land on mobile shows how far mobile gaming can go, more than any title could in a very long time

        1. Rattyfus

          I'm bored by this game already. Seriously, stop jerking off until you have something to show.

          1. Milotorou

            Good for you, its not everyone's case though.

            Fine if youre already bored, you can move on to something else, a lot of people out there have been playing for months and arent bored of it.

            1. Michael Rabattino

              Everybody wants to be a hipster who doesn’t like the current popular thing and question those who do...🙄

              1. Milo

                Yeah, thats the way it is hahaha

                TBH im playing both Fortnite and PUBG right now and i love both, I dont care about what others think ill play what i like :)

      What an overrated piece of garbage, I played it a few hours today on PC and then on iPad and it’s ok but after a couple of games I don’t see any reason at all to keep playing it. It was pretty fun but it doesn’t appear as though leveling up does anything and the stuff you do during each play through doesn’t matter after you die so what’s the point? Maybe I’m missing something or overlooked something, I’d love to be proven wrong.

      1. Milo

        Might not be your type of game then.

        Just like MOBAs or Fighting games for example : No, you dont earn any advantages for winning games or earning levels, the point is to have everyone at the same level of power and have a balanced battle, if you need a sense of progression you might be better off playing an MMORPG or something of the sort, this aint it.

        No judging here, to each their own, no game will please everyone.

        "piece of garbage"

        "it's ok"

        "it was pretty fun"

        1. GreatWizard

          The post conveys a sense of progression!

      Guys, please help me with a spare invite code, seems i tried to login in fortnite mobile without a code, and now my pc client doesnt let me login. [email protected] Thank you very much!

      1. Michael Rabattino

        Me too! I’ve been asking everywhere 😥

        [email protected] please!

        1. Vladimir Emmanuel

          it resolved itself.. just wait

          1. Michael Rabattino

            Good to hear!

    4. Mr. Mayhem

      Apparently TA doesn’t allow comments that have a different viewpoint than theirs, stay classy TA.

      1. Jared Nelson

        Apparently TA has been on a train with no internet service and couldn’t approve your comment right away. But you stay classy and keep jumping to conclusions, typical internet commenter.

        1. brianj22

          Stay classy TA. Attacking user comments you disagree with like bosses! Good luck with your platform.

          1. Milotorou

            What exactly did he disagree with ?

            A comment was simply approve a few hours after it was posted and the guy blamed them, TA did nothing wrong smh

    5. RazJUK

      Some of us actually prefer the "drab, generic military shooter experience" of PUBG.

      1. Milotorou

        I actually think both are absolutely great at what they try to achieve !

        Whats wrong with liking both ?

        Man the bashing of these games is absurd lol, theyre both great. (i know you didnt bash, im talking more about people in general)

    6. brianj22

      How can I not search for this on TA? How is this not the number one game under hot games? The number one GOTW is not even searchable on the website?

      1. Shaun Musgrave

        The people who have the power to make the necessary backend adjustments were on a train without internet for the last handful of days. We on the B-Team did our best to keep things running on their absence, but there are some site features we simply don't have access to. Everything should be caught up shortly now that the brass are back.

      Loving the game so far, just find I sometimes shoot on accident trying to jump, definelty needs an option to make the buttons bigger or move. Can’t for the live of me move the sniper quick enough.

      Took the jailbreak off my iPad to play this and it was worth it. Not willing to lose it on my iPx just yet tho but it’s very tempting

      1. Milotorou

        I second this : The UI should be customizable, why it isnt already that way is a bit strange to me, I mean the current controls do work pretty well but allowing players to move buttons around just makes sense

        1. Pj Hickey

          The iPad come in different sizes. I have a 9.7 pro so I can’t hit the jump fine but I imagine others with the 10.5 and 12inch models will struggle a little

          1. Milo

            I play on an iPad Pro 10.5, yes the jump button feels a bit off to me, im getting used to it buti would move it down a bit if i could.

            Also, the emotes button at the top right makes no sense to me xD I would have that button at the bottom right corner instead

      Is that s site sponsored by Epic or something? The game isn’t all that, glitchy controls, poor graphics, freemium rubbish pushing pay to win on you, and you run around for a few mins then die then go back to the lobby then repeat endlessly, kinda utterly pointless.
      This is a game for those with an iPad Pro 10.5” and a wireless controller. Oh but let’s not forget this mobile version will have you playing against players on consoles and PC’s......
      Oh yeah, once your competing against those people on your mobile just you wait for Epic to start ‘promoting’ those add on’s you can’t afford without spending real money to help you compete on mobile....

      1. Jesse Johnson

        What a ridiculous comment. I stopped reading at pay to win. There is literally zero ways to pay to win in Fortnite. Go back to your cave troll.

        1. marksapolloa

          Reiiiggghhhttt meanwhile we have a story on Fortnite making 1.5 million dollars in 2 days... yeah I think I’m right, your wrong and defending pay to win. Theirs a massive reason it’s ‘free’..

          1. Eli Hodapp

            You really have no idea what you're talking about.

            1. marksapolloa

              Yes I do, do you think Epic are going to give the game away? Or are they going to maximise profit from it and tap into the multi billion dollar freemium mobile market?

              1. Eli Hodapp

                Yes, they're doing it through absurd cosmetics absolutely no one needs to buy... Not pay to win stuff or whatever it is you're on about. If you think you can spend money to win in Fortnite, you need to learn how the game works.

                1. marksapolloa

                  So the game is in essence completely free? Because you cannot buy anything bar clothes? How does it make money then?
