Miner is a win condition that burrows and pops up anywhere on the map. It reaches the tower directly and deals steady damage, making it a favorite of control decks.

How to play

Send Miner straight to the enemy tower, or use it to take out defensive buildings and back-line cards like Princess or Musketeer. Its tower damage is reduced, but it adds up every cycle. Pairing it with Poison or Wall Breakers is a classic plan.

Tips

• Send Miner with Poison on the tower to also take out the defenders.
• Vary which corner of the tower you place it on to make defending harder.
• Using Miner to take out an Elixir Collector or Princess is also valuable.

Strengths

• Can appear anywhere, so it's flexible and hard to predict.
• A steady damage source in control decks.

Weaknesses

• Low tower damage; won't win games alone.
• Cheap melee troops stop it easily.
