Hello, fellow GAMPals and Clash Royale warriors! Ready to conquer Goblin Queen's Journey? Herein lies the ultimate challenge: master the Goblin Queen and her mighty goblin army. Whether you're looking for a rank climb or just some fun, here's everything you need to know about the best Goblin Queen decks and strategies.
First things first, what is the Goblin Queen's Journey? Well, it is a thrilling new event led by the Goblin Queen, who sends goblins like a never-ending river flowing toward victory.
Contrary to other regular modes in Clash Royale, the Goblin Queen's Journey empowers the battlefield with her baby goblins. Those tiny rascals are going to overrun your towers, and the dynamics of your usual strategies shift gears really drastically.
The key to winning this mode is using all your goblin cards to their maximum while utilizing the special Goblin Queen abilities. Once you sense it, you won't take much time to devastate opponents' towers and surprise them.
Below are some of the best decks through which you can win the Goblin Queen's Journey:
Strongest Cards: Goblin Drill, Goblin Demolisher, Bomber
This strategy-oriented deck focuses on fast gameplay and cycling. The Goblin Drill is not only used to attack towers but also for the defense of your towers.
The Bomber card really proves to be useful against enemy swarms. It's perfect at cleaning up goblin hordes and setting you up for a counterattack.
The secret behind this deck's success is in cycling cards fast, rapidly putting pressure on your opponent without giving him a breather.
Main Cards: Mega Knight, Goblin Barrel, Log
Strategy: Mega Knight deals powerful splash damage and thus forms the crux of this deck; he can easily counter the opponent's push but at the same time deal heavy damage against their swarming troops.
Partner him with a Goblin Barrel, and the pressure is relentless on your opponent's towers, forcing them to spend their elixir.
The Log is very important in clearing out enemy troops and ensuring that your goblin army stays intact. This deck really excels when you are just looking to pummel your opponent with wave after wave of goblins, ultimately forcing them to make mistakes.
Major cards: Goblin Giant, Goblin Machine, Goblin Curse
Strategy: A Goblin Giant tank while goblin troops chip away at enemy defenses behind him, and the continuous support to back him up comes in the form of the Goblin Machine, continuously raining damage on enemy units and buildings.
But, yes, the real game-changer is that spell, Goblin Curse—it just devastates enemy defenses, allowing your goblin swarm to claim dominance across the battlefield. With this deck, you will be relentlessly pushing, most especially at the late game when your opponent's elixir towards the really low level.
Main Cards: Bowler, Goblin Gang, Goblin Giant
Strategy: One of the most excellent defensive cards from here, the Bowler, will knock the enemy troops back off- ample space for your goblin horde to manoeuvre. Because of his tanky presence, the Goblin Giant will be at the frontline.
Cards like Goblin Gang enable you to have a good balance between offense and defense, so you can turn from one extreme to another depending on your situation in battle. Whether defending a push or leading an all-out assault, this deck will give you the flexibility to do anything.
By this point, you should have your decks in place, so let's talk strategy. To make the absolute most of those killer Goblin Queen decks, here are some crucial tips:
Since Goblin Queen's ability boosts Goblin cards, it makes much sense to pack your deck with as many Goblin cards as you can. Cards like Goblin Drill, Goblin Gang, and Goblin Demolisher will prove quite effective under her influence. This move makes it possible to rush down the opponent and maximize the strength of the deck.
Timing is everything for the Clone spell. Now, envision this: double the potential of units like Goblin Demolisher or Goblin Babies right when you need them to be.
If done right, this could prove to be a devastatingly overwhelming strategy, simply defeating an opponent by swarming them with goblins.
The clone spell clones key units in the middle of a push for increased damage and to take down enemy towers in less time than it takes your opponent to respond.
Buildings such as Goblin Cage play a critical role in this mode. The manner in which you place your buildings is vital for defence against swarming troops like Goblin Babies or fast-moving units in general.
Make sure that you place them down in a way that the enemy entry would be stalled long enough for your goblin units to respond. You can further spread your buildings across multiple lanes to force your opponent to use up resources trying to breach your defense.
Here's one of the basic rules with every single deck related to Clash Royale: Elixir management is the most important key. You'll need to know when it's time to make bold pushes, but not pay for it with a poor defence that sees you never run out of elixir when you need it most.
Additionally, in the fast-paced action of the Goblin Queen's Journey, it's more important than ever to stay tuned to your elixir bar. Don't get too aggressive in the early game. Instead, pace yourself, and save your elixir for those important moments when you can overwhelm your opponent.
Of course, passing Goblin Queen's Journey will require a mixture of strategy, quick reflexes, and the right deck. Taking on board the above strategies and trying them with these decks, you shall be well on your way to master this event. After all, practice makes perfect. Sharpen those skills and try different combinations. Most of all—have fun!
