How to play

Send Royal Giant near the bridge or from your side and let it shoot the tower from range. If your opponent places a tank killer, protect Royal Giant with cards like Fisherman, Hunter or Mother Witch. Clearing the defensive building or tank killer with Lightning is a classic tactic.

Tips

If your opponent has Inferno Tower or Inferno Dragon, keep a reset card ready.
Send Royal Giant in the opposite lane after defending to split your opponent.
Use Fisherman to pull Mini P.E.K.K.A and P.E.K.K.A away from Royal Giant.

Strengths

Hits buildings from outside their range; strong against defensive buildings.
Deals consistent tower damage.
