Best Evo Dart Goblin Decks

Every time a new evolution card gets released, the meta in Clash Royale shifts drastically. The last card to receive the evo treatment was the Giant Snowball, and yes, it was good for a time, but the players quickly learned to play around it. These days, apart from some X-Bow or Goblin Giant decks, you won’t see many people using the Evo Giant Snowball.

However, with the Evo Dart Goblin, things are different. It’s a cheap cycle card that goes well in all sorts of decks. And while the Evo effect takes a bit of time to ramp up, in some situations, Evo Dart Goblin can significantly boost your offensive and defensive power in the game. In this guide, we’ll take a look at some of the best Evo Dart Goblin you’ll want to try out if you’re having a hard time fitting this card into your decks.

Best Clash Royale Decks To Get to Ultimate Champion

Having trouble getting to Ultimate Champion? Here are the best Clash Royale decks you can use right now to get to the top of the leaderboard.

Clash Royale Evo Dart Goblin Overview

The Evo Dart Goblin arrived at the Clash Royale arena with its own draft event, and if you’ve played through it, you should already have a decent idea of how it works. For those who don’t know, the Evo Dart Goblin has stats identical to the normal variant but has a secondary Evo effect on its attacks.

Each shot fired by the Evo Dart Goblin adds a stack of poison to the target. The stacks build up with each shot, allowing the target to take additional poison damage. On top of that, the shots also leave a trail of poison around the target that deals area damage to any troops or buildings around it.

The poison also follows the target and leaves a damaging trail on the ground behind it that lasts for four seconds. If the target dies, the poison puddle stays on the field for the same duration. If the Evo Dart Goblin isn’t taken off the field, it can easily defend an entire Pekka Bridge Spam push on its own.

Then again, the Evo Dart Goblin still has one major weakness. All your opponent needs is one Arrows or The Log to take it off the field. But since the card only costs three elixirs and the evo cycle is also only two, you can get a lot of value out of this card if you’re smart with how you use it.

Best Evo Dart Goblin Decks in Clash Royale

Here are the best Evo Dart Goblin Decks that you might want to consider trying out in Clash Royale:

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

You’ll find more information about these decks below.

2.3 Log Bait

Log Bait is arguably the most popular deck archetype in Clash Royale. As soon as Evo Dart Goblin dropped, this is the deck type that most people jumped into to try out the new evolution. As it turns out, the Evo Dart Goblin fits like a glove with the quick and aggressive playstyle of these decks.

The 2.3 Log Bait variant is one of the quickest version of Log Bait out there. It uses the Mighty Miner and not one but two Spirits to keep things moving quickly. On top of the Evo Goblin Barrel, which is your main win condition, you’ll also have the Wall Breakers to fall back on if you’re having trouble getting damage to the enemy tower.

It’s important to remember that the Evo Dart Goblin’s poison darts also linger on the enemy tower, and the damage can stack up if you manage to get in a couple of hits. That means you’ll be able to apply a lot of pressure on the opponent if you manage to outcycle their key defenses.

Of course, this deck also has one major weakness. Since the deck doesn’t use a single spell card, you’ll have a tough time getting tower damage if your opponent has a lot of swarm counters. Then again, since the deck has such a low average elixir cost, playing around their counters and gaining an elixir lead shouldn’t be too difficult for most players.

Goblin Drill Wall Breakers

Goblin Drill decks have become extremely popular these days among cycle deck fans because of their quick and aggressive playstyle. But most Goblin Drill decks don’t use the Evo Dart Goblin. This one, however, works well with the Evo Dart Goblin, offering you more firepower and spam potential to constantly keep your opponent on their toes.

The evolution combo of Wall Breakers and Dart Goblin gives you multiple ways to apply pressure on the opponent’s tower. They also give you plenty of outplay potential. With the Wall Breakers, you can pull back and distract slow opponent troops. The Dart Goblin, on the other hand, can often snipe the opponent’s troops from the other end of the field, giving you amazing value.

Ideally, you’ll want to target the opposite lane with this deck. Unlike the Goblin Drill Poison cycle deck, you don’t have any spell cards that trickle down the enemy tower. By going on the opposite lane, your opponent won’t be able to build up a counter push anytime you decide to attack.

This deck is all about offense over defense. Even though you have a defensive building in the deck, all of your cards are spam troops. The Bandit and Royal Ghost can serve as a decent mini-tank, but the way to win with this deck is to keep up the attack, force your opponent to make a mistake and punish them for it.

Mortar Miner Recruits

Most Clash Royale fans would agree that Royal Recruits are the most annoying evolution cards to defend against. The level of split lane pressure that comes with this one card is insane. And now that you’ve also got the Evo Dart Goblin in the mix, you’ll have pretty much all you need to make your opponent give up halfway into the game.

While most Recruits decks in Clash Royale use Royal Piggies as its win condition, this one does things a bit differently. In this deck, you’ll be using the Mortar as your primary win condition while the legendary card, Miner, takes on the role of your secondary win condition. You’ll also be able to activate the champion cycle with the Skeleton King, allowing you to cycle through your deck and get to your Evo cards faster.

The deck has a pretty straightforward playstyle. You’ll almost always start with the Royal Recruits at the back when you’re thinking of going on the offensive. As the Recruits reach the bridge, place a Mortar down to target one of the lanes. Use Skeleton King on the other lane and send in the Miner to take out key defensive structures.

The Evo Dart Goblin takes on a defensive role, and you’ll always want to cycle it when your opponent is building up an attack. If your opponent uses The Log or Arrows to defend against your Goblin Gang or Minions, you can place a mini tank like the Skeleton King in front of your Dart Goblin to apply additional pressure.

The Evo Dart Goblin has already proven to be a unique addition to Clash Royale with its impressive damage output and outplay potential. Feel free to try out these decks and see how they work for you. But it’s also important to experiment with your own unique card combinations to build a deck that’s perfect for your playstyle.
