Clash Royale's Rune Giant Event: Top Deck Strategies

Clash Royale has unleashed its latest event, the Rune Giant event, running from January 13th for a week. This guide focuses on effective deck strategies centered around the new Epic card, the Rune Giant.

The Rune Giant, a four-elixir card, targets buildings like other giants, but with a unique twist: it buffs the two nearest troops, boosting their damage output every third hit. Strategic card selection is key to maximizing this buff.

Top Rune Giant Decks:

Deck One (Average Elixir Cost: 3.5)

This well-rounded deck counters a wide range of threats. Guards and the Inferno Dragon effectively neutralize enemy Rune Giants and heavy units. Firecracker and Arrows handle swarms. For offense, the Ram Rider, boosted by Rage, delivers a powerful push.

Deck Two (Average Elixir Cost: 3.9)

This deck combines the offensive power of the Rune Giant and Goblin Giant for direct tower attacks. Electro Dragon and Guards counter most giant-type units, while Hunter and Arrows handle swarms. The Dart Goblin synergizes exceptionally well with the Rune Giant.

Deck Three (Average Elixir Cost: 3.3)

This deck utilizes the X-Bow as its primary offensive unit, supported by Archers, Knight, and Dart Goblin. Goblin Gang provides a strong counter to heavy hitters like the Prince, P.E.K.K.A., and Ram Rider. The abundance of smaller units makes it difficult for opponents to counter effectively. For example, if Arrows or Log are used against your Archers, quickly deploy Dart Goblin or Goblin Gang to maintain offensive pressure.
