Bro costs 10 elixir

Elixir is spent to deploy a card onto the battlefield in Clash Royale. The player begins with 5 elixir, but as the game goes on it can be increased to 10 elixir. This phrase is used to indicate that somebody is so fat that they have to have extra elixir to be deployed onto the “battlefield”
