Why This Deck Works

Royal Giant's 6.5 tile range lets him hit towers from YOUR side! Combined with Lightning to destroy defensive buildings, he's nearly unstoppable. Furnace provides chip damage while you build elixir for RG pushes.

How to Play

  • Furnace First: Place Furnace behind King Tower. Chip damage + elixir building
  • RG Placement: At bridge, slightly on your side. Outranges their towers
  • Lightning: Destroy Inferno Tower + support troops when RG is attacking
  • Support: Musketeer behind RG clears defenders
  • Defense: Mini P.E.K.K.A kills tanks. Mega Minion for air
  • Cycle: Cheap cards let you cycle back to RG quickly
Pro Tip: Royal Giant outranges Tesla and Tombstone! Lightning removes Inferno Tower. He has answers to everything!

Why This Deck Works

Elite Barbarians are FAST and deal massive damage. When opponent wastes elixir, drop E-Barbs at bridge for instant pressure. They can take a tower in seconds if unanswered. Ultimate punish deck!

How to Play

  • Punish: When opponent drops Golem/Elixir Collector, E-Barbs opposite lane immediately
  • Zap Support: Zap their swarms when E-Barbs are attacking
  • Battle Ram: Secondary win condition. Forces responses
  • Defense: Defend efficiently with Knight, then counter-push with E-Barbs
  • Elixir Counting: Know when opponent is low. That's when you strike
Pro Tip: E-Barbs cost 6 elixir. Only use them when opponent CAN'T defend. Otherwise you waste elixir!

Why This Deck Works

Classic LavaLoon remains one of the best strategies. Lava Hound tanks for Balloon. When they try to defend, Arrows clear everything. Air-focused beatdown that's hard to stop.

How to Play

  • Setup: Lava Hound in back corner. Build elixir as it moves forward
  • Balloon Behind: When Lava crosses bridge, place Balloon behind it
  • Arrows Ready: When they place Minions/Minion Horde, Arrows immediately
  • Pups Value: When Lava dies, pups swarm tower. They deal significant damage
  • Defense: Tombstone + Baby Dragon handles most ground pushes
Pro Tip: LavaLoon is a double elixir deck. Defend in single elixir, then dominate in 2x!

Arena 7 Meta Strategy

Royal Giant Mechanics

  • Range: 6.5 tiles. Outranges Cannon (5.5), Tesla (6), Tombstone (3.5)
  • Placement: At bridge, slightly your side. Stays out of building range
  • Counters: Inferno Tower (use Lightning), swarms (use Zap), P.E.K.K.A (kite away)
  • Usage: When you have spell to remove their counter, or they're low elixir

Elite Barbarians Strategy

  • Speed: Very Fast. Reach tower in 3 seconds from bridge
  • When to Use: Punish Golem/pump/expensive play opposite lane
  • Support: Zap, Ice Spirit, or Fire Spirits to clear defenders
  • DON'T: Place E-Barbs when opponent has elixir to defend. You'll lose trade
