Clash Royale: Best Evo Dart Goblin Decks

The Clash Royale meta shifts dramatically with each new evolution card release. The Giant Snowball, while initially impactful, quickly became predictable. Now, outside of niche decks, it's rarely seen. The Evo Dart Goblin, however, is a different story. This inexpensive cycle card seamlessly integrates into various deck archetypes. While its evolution effect requires time to build, the Evo Dart Goblin can significantly boost offensive and defensive capabilities.

This guide explores several top-tier Evo Dart Goblin decks for players struggling to incorporate this card effectively.

Clash Royale Evo Dart Goblin Overview

Introduced alongside its own draft event, the Evo Dart Goblin boasts identical stats to its standard counterpart but adds a potent secondary effect. Each shot applies a poison stack to the target, increasing damage with each subsequent hit. Furthermore, a poison trail damages surrounding troops and buildings. This trail persists even after the target's death, lasting four seconds. A skilled player can use this to single-handedly defend a full Pekka Bridge Spam push.

The poison effect 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 incredibly valuable when used strategically.

Best Evo Dart Goblin Decks in Clash Royale

Consider these top-performing Evo Dart Goblin decks:

• 2.3 Log Bait
• Goblin Drill Wall Breakers
• Mortar Miner Recruits

Details on each deck follow.

2.3 Log Bait

Log Bait remains incredibly popular. The Evo Dart Goblin complements its aggressive style perfectly. This 2.3 variant uses Mighty Miner and dual Spirits for rapid cycling. Evo Goblin Barrel is the primary win condition, supported by Wall Breakers for additional tower pressure. The Evo Dart Goblin's lingering poison damage on the tower significantly adds to its offensive potential, especially when outcycling enemy defenses. Its weakness lies in its lack of spell cards, making swarm counters challenging. However, the low average elixir cost allows for effective counterplay and elixir advantage.

This deck utilizes the Dagger Duchess Tower Troop.

Goblin Drill Wall Breakers

Goblin Drill decks are currently favored for their fast-paced aggression. This variation incorporates the Evo Dart Goblin, enhancing its offensive capabilities. The combined evolution of Wall Breakers and Dart Goblin provides versatile pressure and outplay potential. Wall Breakers distract while the Dart Goblin snipes from afar. The strategy focuses on opposite-lane attacks to prevent counter-pushes, given the lack of spell cards. The deck prioritizes offense, relying on constant pressure to force mistakes. Bandit and Royal Ghost provide minor tanking capabilities.

This deck utilizes the Tower Princess Tower Troop.

Mortar Miner Recruits

Royal Recruits are notoriously difficult to counter. This deck leverages that strength, adding the Evo Dart Goblin for even more pressure. Unlike typical Recruits decks, this one 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 Miner for lane control. Evo Dart Goblin serves defensively, countering enemy pushes. If The Log or Arrows are used against Goblin Gang or Minions, Skeleton King provides additional support for the Dart Goblin.

This deck utilizes the Cannoneer Tower Troop.

The Evo Dart Goblin's high damage output and outplay potential make it a valuable addition to Clash Royale. Experiment with these decks and discover your perfect playstyle.
