We know that Clash Royale is a great game. And with the Mega Caballero it is even more so. Supercell is making an effort so that this summer the news does not stop arriving. So the players do not have time to get bored. Proof of this is the Wheeled Cannon, the update with these balance adjustments, and the Crown Championship Challenge.
Without a doubt, the new legendary card of the Mega Knight is going to give a lot of itself.This is a troop that is capable of doing deploy and jump damage to ground targets, with a jump range of 4 to 5. Next to the Giant Skeleton , this is the fastest and most mobile tank in the entire game. So there are plenty of reasons to want to win this legendary. In case of not getting it, we will have to wait for it to arrive for everyone on September 8.
Decks to win the Mega Knight Challenge
The first thing to keep in mind is that the Mega Knight is much more profitable if we use it to defend and then counterattack Of course , is capable of destroying towers without breaking a sweat, but the question is knowing how to use it. It is not a good idea to drop it in the middle of the bridge like crazy, because they will eliminate it quickly. It's better to put him behind our tower and support him with cheap and fast cards
For example, it works well to cast it with units like Minions, Fire Spirits, Baby Dragon or, of course, Bats. These cards have a cost of between 2 and 4 elixir units. ¿Why is it so important? Well, because the Mega Knight is fast, so the troops that go with him must be able to keep up with him In this aspect, although it is a good card, the Executioner is slower.
Let's not forget that we will also have to defend ourselves against him The best thing to do is to place air and ground units around him that attack with speed. A card that will do a lot of damage to him is the Mini P.E.K.K.A., which if we manage to make it hold, will kill the Mega Knight. Distracting him with an Ice Golem and overwhelming him with a few Guards, Goblin Gang, or Skeleton Army will also be effective.
Mazo with Bandit and Montapuercos
Because of the way they attack, the Mega Knight and the Bandit could perfectly be the couple of the summer of Clash Royale. They stick to the towers and do as much damage as they can before falling. That's why it's important to give them good coverage so they can last as long as possible.
On the other hand, if we have the Pig Rider, we can take advantage of the fact that the enemy is busy with the tank while attacking the structures directly . This deck is very competent and has an average cost of 3, 9 It is made up of: Mega Knight, Bandit, Hog Rider, Electric Wizard, Ice Golem, Minions, Bats and Lightning.
The latter can be exchanged for a cheaper one, such as the Descarga, the Tornado or the Arrows. The point is that we have a spell card in the deck, both to cover the backs of those who are going to attack, and to defend ourselves at a critical moment.
Deck with Goblin Barrel or Miner
One of the functions of the Mega Knight is to act as a distraction so that we can attack the towers with other units. That is, "tank" and take advantage of the fact that we distract the enemy So a good strategy is to go directly to a tower with a card that allows it, such as the Barrel of goblins or the Miner. We will have it easier if we also have air support and another tank, such as the Ice Golem, which is very versatile and cheap.
The following deck has an average cost of 3, 5 and consists of: Mega Knight, Goblin Barrel, Ice Golem , Bats, Goblin Gang, Princess, Shock and Rocket. The Miner can replace the Goblin Barrel perfectly, since its mission is very similar.The Rocket is best reserved for when the occasion calls for it, because it can finish off a tower without the enemy waiting for it. With the Ice Golem we will have a mini-tank that will free us from many scares.
Elixir Collector Deck
The truth is that the Mega Knight is a face card. It has a cost of 7 elixir units So it's an expensive card, which our opponents will also have in their deck. That's why it's a good idea to include a Elixir Collector in our deck. If we know how to use it well, it will be very helpful to take advantage of our opponent (as long as we don't destroy it for us).
It's not easy to get this card to fit well in a deck and get the most out of it But the following example is a very good choice and has an average cost of 3.8, which isn't bad at all.Consists of: Mega Knight, Elixir Collector, Knight, Fireball, Goblin Barrel, Shock, Bats, and Minions. With the air units we can defend ourselves from the Mega Knight, while we collect elixir to gain an advantage and we attack with the Goblin Barrel and the Fireball. When the time comes, we can launch the units with more speed than the opponent.
Winning this Mega Knight Challenge may not be a piece of cake, but it's not impossible. Especially for those who participated in the Crown Championship Challenge, where the number of wins was 20. By the way, it is also a good option to choose one of the most successful decks from that challenge.
The Crown Championship deck, but with the Mega Knight
A challenge that opened the doors to regional tournaments leading up to the world championship was not something to be taken lightly.Many players tried their luck with well thought out decks. The most popular one has an average cost of 4, 1 and its strong point is the P.E.K.K.A. This card is accompanied by the Executioner, the Hog Rider, the Electric Magician, the Tornado, the Bats, the Trunk and the Lightning.
The issue here is replacing the P.E.K.K.A. by the Mega Knight, which has the same cost of 7 elixir units. It should be noted that depending on the battle, the Executioner may not be the most efficient support due to the aforementioned speed. But there is no doubt that we can do a lot with this card if we know how to cast it properly.
It is recommended to use the usual way of playing, the one that we know works best for us. Some players don't even use it and get victories. Although, of course, being the protagonist of this tournament, what better way to put it to the test with decks like the ones we have just reviewed.
The challenge forces us to put the Mega Knight in our deck, but it does not mean that we are forced to use it continuously. Of course, it is better to use it for defense and take advantage of it for a good counterattack If you have more suggestions, feel free to leave them in the comments. And if you've managed to beat the Mega Knight Challenge, share your success!
