Get ready for some electrifying Clash Royale action! The Rune Giant event has arrived, kicking off on January 13th and lasting for a week of intense battles. As the name suggests, the Rune Giant is the star of the show, so building your deck around this powerful card is key to victory. This guide provides three solid deck strategies to help you conquer the Rune Giant event.
The Rune Giant, a new Epic card costing four elixir, charges straight for enemy buildings like a traditional Giant, but with a unique twist: it buffs the two closest troops, granting them extra damage every third hit. This potent combination makes for devastating pushes. However, remember that the Rune Giant only enchants two troops at a time, so careful card selection is crucial.
Best Rune Giant Decks in Clash Royale
Deck One (Average Elixir: 3.5)
This balanced deck excels against a wide range of strategies. Guards and the Inferno Dragon provide strong counters to enemy Rune Giants and heavy units. Firecracker and Arrows handle swarms effectively. For the offensive, the Ram Rider, boosted by Rage, delivers a rapid and powerful attack.
Deck Two (Average Elixir: 3.9)
This deck packs a powerful punch with both the Rune Giant and Goblin Giant leading the charge directly at the towers. Electro Dragon and Guards effectively counter most giant-type units, while Hunter and Arrows neutralize swarms. The Dart Goblin synergizes exceptionally well with the Rune Giant, making this a highly effective choice.
Deck Three (Average Elixir: 3.3)
This deck utilizes the X-Bow as its primary offensive weapon, supported by Archers, Knight, and Dart Goblin. Goblin Gang provides a robust counter to heavy hitters like the Prince, P.E.K.K.A., and Ram Rider. The abundance of smaller units makes it challenging for opponents to counter effectively. For example, if they use Arrows or Log on your Archers, you can quickly deploy the Dart Goblin or Goblin Gang to maintain offensive pressure.
