Clash Royale's Rune Giant Event: Top Deck Strategies

Clash Royale's latest event, the Rune Giant event, kicked off on January 13th and runs for a week. This guide focuses on crafting effective decks built around the new Epic Rune Giant card. This four-elixir card targets buildings like other giants, but uniquely buffs the two nearest troops, enhancing their damage output every third hit. Strategic card selection is crucial to maximize this buff.

Top Rune Giant Decks

The Rune Giant's unique ability requires careful consideration of supporting units. Here are three winning deck strategies:

Deck One: Balanced Offense (Average Elixir: 3.5)

This versatile deck counters a wide range of threats. Guards and Inferno Dragon effectively handle enemy Rune Giants and heavy units. Firecracker and Arrows provide swarm control. For offensive pushes, combine the Ram Rider with Rage for a speed boost.

Deck Two: Powerful Push (Average Elixir: 3.9)

This deck utilizes a potent offensive combination of Rune Giant and Goblin Giant, both directly targeting towers. Electro Dragon and Guards provide strong defense against giant-based attacks. Hunter and Arrows handle swarms, while Dart Goblin synergizes exceptionally well with the Rune Giant.

Deck Three: X-Bow Support (Average Elixir: 3.3)

This deck centers around the X-Bow as the primary attacker, supported by Archers, Knight, and Dart Goblin. Goblin Gang counters heavy units like Prince, P.E.K.K.A., and Ram Rider. The abundance of smaller units makes it difficult for opponents to counter effectively. If your Archers are targeted by spells like Arrows or Log, quickly deploy Dart Goblin or Goblin Gang to maintain offensive pressure.

Experiment with these decks and adjust them to your playstyle. Remember, the key to success with the Rune Giant is choosing supporting cards that maximize its buffing ability.
