Best Rune Giant Decks In Clash Royale

The Rune Giant is a new Epic card in Clash Royale. It costs four elixir and targets buildings like other giants, but its unique ability enhances the two nearest troops. These buffed allies deal bonus damage every third strike to strengthen your assault. However, the Rune Giant can only empower two cards simultaneously, so select your support units carefully.

Deck One (Average Elixir: 3.5)

This well-rounded deck performs effectively against most strategies. Use Guards and Inferno Dragon to counter your opponent's Rune Giant or other heavy units. Firecracker and Arrows provide reliable swarm control. When launching an offensive, pair Ram Rider with Rage to boost its movement and attack speed.

Deck Two (Average Elixir: 3.9)

This deck delivers substantial offensive power with both Rune Giant and Goblin Giant targeting enemy towers directly. Electro Dragon and Guards handle opposing giants effectively, while Hunter and Arrows manage swarm units. Additionally, Dart Goblin synergizes exceptionally well with Rune Giant, making this combination particularly strong.

Deck Three (Average Elixir: 3.3)

This deck features X-Bow as your primary win condition, supported by Archers, Knight, and Dart Goblin. Goblin Gang effectively counters heavy hitters like Prince, P.E.K.K.A., and Ram Rider. The abundance of small units makes it challenging for opponents to defend efficiently. For instance, if they use Arrows or Log on your Archers, you can quickly deploy Dart Goblin or Goblin Gang to maintain offensive pressure.
