The Clash Royale meta shifts dramatically with each new evolution card. The Evo Giant Snowball had its moment, but players adapted. However, the Evo Dart Goblin is different; its low cost and versatility make it a valuable addition to various decks. While its evolution effect takes time to build, it can significantly boost offensive and defensive capabilities. This guide explores top-tier Evo Dart Goblin decks.
Clash Royale Evo Dart Goblin Overview
The Evo Dart Goblin debuted alongside its own draft event. It boasts identical stats to its standard counterpart but features a unique evolution effect.
Each shot applies poison stacks to the target, increasing damage with each hit. A poison trail also damages surrounding units and buildings. This trail persists for four seconds, even after the target's death, if the Evo Dart Goblin remains on the field. It can single-handedly defend a Pekka Bridge Spam push.
The poison creates a purple aura, turning red and exponentially increasing damage after multiple hits. Its main weakness? Arrows or The Log easily eliminate it. However, its three-elixir cost and two-cycle evolution make it highly valuable with strategic play.
Best Evo Dart Goblin Decks in Clash Royale
Consider these top Evo Dart Goblin decks:
- 2.3 Log Bait
- Goblin Drill Wall Breakers
- Mortar Miner Recruits
2.3 Log Bait
Log Bait is a popular archetype, and the Evo Dart Goblin seamlessly integrates into its fast-paced style.
| Card Name | Elixir Cost |
|---|---|
| Evo Dart Goblin | 3 |
| Evo Goblin Barrel | 3 |
| Skeletons | 1 |
| Ice Spirit | 1 |
| Fire Spirit | 1 |
| Wall Breakers | 2 |
| Princess | 3 |
| Mighty Miner | 4 |
This 2.3 Log Bait variant uses Mighty Miner and two Spirits for rapid cycling. Evo Goblin Barrel is the primary win condition, with Wall Breakers as a fallback. The Evo Dart Goblin's lingering poison damage on the tower adds significant pressure, especially when outcycling defenses. Its weakness is a lack of spell cards, making it vulnerable to swarm counters. However, its low average elixir cost allows for strategic counter-play and elixir advantage. This deck utilizes the Dagger Duchess Tower Troop.
Goblin Drill Wall Breakers
Goblin Drill decks are popular for their aggressive playstyle. This variant incorporates the Evo Dart Goblin for enhanced firepower.
| Card Name | Elixir Cost |
|---|---|
| Evo Wall Breakers | 2 |
| Evo Dart Goblin | 3 |
| Skeletons | 1 |
| Giant Snowball | 2 |
| Bandit | 3 |
| Royal Ghost | 3 |
| Bomb Tower | 4 |
| Goblin Drill | 4 |
The Evo Wall Breakers and Dart Goblin combo creates diverse offensive pressure and outplay potential. Wall Breakers distract, while the Dart Goblin snipes from afar. Targeting the opposite lane prevents counter-pushes. This deck prioritizes offense; while having a defensive building, it relies on constant attacks to force opponent mistakes. Bandit and Royal Ghost serve as mini-tanks. This deck uses the Tower Princess Tower Troop.
Mortar Miner Recruits
Royal Recruits are notoriously difficult to defend against. Adding the Evo Dart Goblin amplifies this pressure.
| Card Name | Elixir Cost |
|---|---|
| Evo Dart Goblin | 3 |
| Evo Royal Recruits | 7 |
| Minions | 3 |
| Goblin Gang | 3 |
| Miner | 3 |
| Arrows | 3 |
| Mortar | 4 |
| Skeleton King | 4 |
Unlike typical Recruits decks, this uses Mortar as the primary win condition, with Miner as secondary. Skeleton King activates the champion cycle for faster Evo card access. The strategy involves deploying Royal Recruits at the back, followed by Mortar and Skeleton King in opposite lanes, with Miner targeting defenses. The Evo Dart Goblin plays a defensive role, countering opponent pushes. This deck uses the Cannoneer Tower Troop.
The Evo Dart Goblin's high damage and outplay potential make it a valuable Clash Royale addition. Experiment with these decks and create your own variations to find the perfect fit for your playstyle.
