Clash Royale's Rune Giant Event: Top Deck Strategies
The Rune Giant event in Clash Royale, running from January 13th for a week, presents a unique challenge. This guide offers three effective decks designed to leverage the Rune Giant's abilities. Remember, the Rune Giant's power lies in its ability to buff the two nearest units, increasing their damage output every third hit. Strategic card selection is key.
Top Rune Giant Decks in Clash Royale
The Rune Giant, a new Epic card costing four elixir, targets buildings directly. Its unique enchantment ability makes it a powerful addition to any well-constructed deck.
Deck One (Average Elixir Cost: 3.5)
This balanced deck excels against various strategies. Guards and the Inferno Dragon effectively counter enemy Rune Giants and heavy units. Firecracker and Arrows handle swarms. For offensive pushes, combine the Ram Rider with Rage for enhanced speed and attack power.
Clash Royale Card | Elixir Cost |
---|---|
Rune Giant | Four |
Guards | Three |
Firecracker | Three |
Inferno Dragon | Four |
Arrows | Three |
Rage | Two |
Goblin Giant | Six |
Knight | Three |
Deck Two (Average Elixir Cost: 3.9)
This deck combines the offensive power of both the Rune Giant and Goblin Giant, directly targeting towers. Electro Dragon and Guards defend against most giants, while Hunter and Arrows eliminate swarms. The Dart Goblin synergizes particularly well with the Rune Giant, making this a strong choice.

---|---|
Rune Giant | Four |
Guards | Three |
Fisherman | Three |
Electro Dragon | Five |
Arrows | Three |
Dart Goblin | Three |
Goblin Giant | Six |
Hunter | Four |
Deck Three (Average Elixir Cost: 3.3)
This deck utilizes the X-Bow as its primary attacker, supported by Archers, Knight, and Dart Goblin. The Goblin Gang counters heavy units like the Prince, P.E.K.K.A., and Ram Rider. The abundance of small troops makes it difficult for opponents to counter effectively. If your Archers are targeted by Arrows or the Log, quickly deploy the Dart Goblin or Goblin Gang to maintain pressure.

Goblin Gang | Three |
Giant Snowball | Two |
Log | Two |
Archers | Three |
Dart Goblin | Three |

Knight | Three |
Experiment with these decks and adjust them to your playing style. Remember to focus on supporting your Rune Giant effectively to maximize its impact on the battlefield.
