They are great against the minion hordes, the skeleton army, the goblin barrel, and other low health troops.<\/p>\n<h3>GROUPED TROOPS (MANDATORY)<\/h3>\n<p>Having swarm troops means an easy defense. \u00a0You can punch out a ton of damage for a low cost.\u00a0Use them against strong and tanky troops with huge amounts of health. \u00a0Be careful not to use them against troops like the Valkyrie, the wizard, the baby dragon, or the bomber though. \u00a0These splash damage troops will make quick work of your cluster troops. Small spells will also make you take an elixir deficit. After your cluster troops finish their job, you can start by doing a counter attack by putting your main card and start pushing with your remaining defensive cluster troops. \u00a0Cluster troops include the goblin horde, the barbarians, the guards, the skeleton army, and the bats.<\/p>\n<h3>OFFENSIVE SUPPORT (MANDATORY)<\/h3>\n<p>In addition to your main card, you need support to make your push stronger. \u00a0Think of how much more frightening a wizard behind a golem is, a bomber behind a royal giant, a balloon behind a lava hound. \u00a0Most support troops will fill the spot your main card is missing. \u00a0You do not have damage, your support card will have damage. \u00a0You do not have slash damage, your support card will most likely be the wizard or the bomber. \u00a0Your main card is the hog rider that is vulnerable to air attacks, your supporting card will be an air targeting troop. \u00a0The list goes on and on. \u00a0Common support cards include the ice wizard, the princess, the wizard, the Valkyrie, the knight, the bomber, and the musketeer.<\/p>\n<h3>CYCLE TROOPS (MANDATORY)<\/h3>\n<p>They are versatile and let you cycle through your deck extremely fast. They can be used for defending your base along with spells and towers or you can also do an offense support together with your main card. \u00a0These cards also reduce the average elixir cost of your deck which allows you to react quicker to your opponents moves. \u00a0Some cycle troops include the spear goblins, the goblins, the minions, the archers, the skeletons, the fire spirits, and the ice spirit.<\/p>\n<h3>ELIXIR AVERAGE<\/h3>\n<p>Your elixir average cost for your deck should be between 3.0 and 4.0 elixir. \u00a0Anything beyond that cost and you should probably consider adding an elixir collector into your deck.<\/p>\n<h3>DAMAGE COMP<\/h3>\n<p>You should have at least two troops that attack air targets.<\/p>\n<p>You should have at least one troop that is high in health.<\/p>\n<p>You should have at least two splash damage troops.<\/p>\n<p>You should have at least one single target troop.<\/p>\n<p>You should have at least one spell.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Introduction Are you tired of only playing the meta?
