On February 22, 2026, raquaza crossed the 12,000 trophy mark in a decisive Ladder victory over J Money, finishing the match 1–0 and sealing the push with a +17 gain to hit 12,000. Running a high-skill control deck featuring Archer Queen, Monk, Log, Miner, Electro Dragon, and Goblin Barrel support, raquaza outmaneuvered a Hog Rider cycle list backed by Tesla, Earthquake, Skeletons, and Ice Spirit. Clean defensive sequencing, disciplined elixir trades, and precise counter-push timing turned the matchup, breaking through and protecting the lead to lock in the milestone. This POAP marks the exact battle that elevated POAP KINGS to 12k—proof of arena dominance earned the hard way.

On this day, POAP KINGS deployed Elixir — the first AI agent ever built for a Clash Royale clan. What began as a question — what if the clan had a mind of its own? — became a living system running 24/7 inside our Discord. Powered by GPT-4o and built in Python, Elixir does what no clan manager can do alone: it watches every hour, detects what matters, and speaks in its own voice. Promotions, war results, trophy milestones, member anniversaries — Elixir sees them all, filters the noise, and reports what's real. Leaders can ask it questions and get answers grounded in actual clan data. It remembers who joined, who left, and who showed up every battle day. Elixir doesn't just automate tasks. It chronicles the clan. Every observation is logged, every message remembered — building a living record of POAP KINGS over time. That record flows beyond Discord too: Elixir generates and publishes content directly to poapkings.com, keeping the clan's public presence as alive as the clan itself. Elixir was created by King Thing (#20JJJ2CCRU), leader of POAP KINGS (#J2RGCRVG). This POAP marks the moment a Clash Royale clan got its first AI agent. We don't know of anyone who did this before us. If you're holding this, you were there at the beginning. 🧪👑

This POAP marks the Ladder battle where King Thing of POAP KINGS surged from 9,986 to 10,016 trophies, officially breaking the 10K barrier. Running a disciplined 3.8 elixir control deck, he leveraged a Level 16 Witch to generate constant skeleton pressure, a Level 16 Cannon to shut down counter pushes, and a stealthy Royal Ghost to chip and threaten. Skeleton Army punished misplays, Royal Hogs split lanes to force defensive splits, and Inferno Dragon melted through resistance when the window opened, while Arrows kept swarms in check. With composure, tempo control, and precise timing, King Thing earned the +30 trophies that secured his place in five-digit territory.
