The Clash Royale meta dramatically shifts with each new evolution card. While the Evo Giant Snowball had its moment, it's now less prevalent. The Evo Dart Goblin, however, is a different story. Its low elixir cost and versatility make it a valuable addition to various decks. Although its evolution effect takes time to build, it significantly boosts offensive and defensive capabilities. This guide explores top-tier Evo Dart Goblin decks.
Clash Royale Evo Dart Goblin: An Overview
Introduced alongside its own draft event, the Evo Dart Goblin boasts identical stats to its standard counterpart, but with a potent evolution attack.
Each shot inflicts poison stacks, increasing damage over time. A poison trail surrounds the target, damaging nearby units and structures. This trail persists for four seconds, even if the target dies. A skilled player can single-handedly defend a full Pekka Bridge Spam push with the Evo Dart Goblin.
The poison effect creates a purple aura (turning red with increased damage after multiple hits). However, its vulnerability to Arrows or The Log remains a significant weakness. Despite this, its three-elixir cost and rapid evolution cycle offer high value with strategic play.
Top Evo Dart Goblin Decks in Clash Royale
Consider these effective Evo Dart Goblin decks:
- 2.3 Log Bait
- Goblin Drill Wall Breakers
- Mortar Miner Recruits
2.3 Log Bait
A popular archetype, Log Bait readily incorporates the Evo Dart Goblin. Its fast-paced, aggressive nature complements the card perfectly.

This 2.3 Log Bait variant utilizes Mighty Miner and dual Spirits for rapid cycling. Evo Goblin Barrel serves as the primary win condition, with Wall Breakers providing backup. The lingering poison damage from the Evo Dart Goblin on the tower adds significant pressure, especially when out-cycling opponent defenses. Its weakness lies in its lack of spell cards, making swarm counters challenging. However, its low average elixir cost allows for effective counter-play and elixir advantage. This deck utilizes the Dagger Duchess Tower Troop.
Goblin Drill Wall Breakers
The popularity of Goblin Drill decks stems from their aggressive playstyle. This variation integrates the Evo Dart Goblin for enhanced firepower and constant pressure.
Card Name Elixir Cost
The Evo Wall Breakers and Dart Goblin combo provides diverse offensive options and outplay potential. Wall Breakers distract, while the Dart Goblin snipes from afar. The strategy focuses on opposite-lane attacks to prevent counter-pushes. This deck prioritizes offense; while a defensive building is included, all cards are spam troops. Bandit and Royal Ghost act as mini-tanks. Success relies on constant attacks, forcing opponent errors. This deck uses the Tower Princess Tower Troop.
Mortar Miner Recruits
Royal Recruits are notoriously difficult to counter. Adding the Evo Dart Goblin enhances this deck's split-lane pressure.
Card Name Elixir Cost
Unlike typical Recruits decks, this version uses Mortar as the primary win condition, with Miner as secondary. Skeleton King facilitates champion cycling. The playstyle is straightforward: deploy Royal Recruits, then Mortar and Miner, utilizing Skeleton King for support. Evo Dart Goblin plays a defensive role, countering opponent pushes. This deck uses the Cannoneer Tower Troop.
The Evo Dart Goblin's impact on Clash Royale is undeniable. Experiment with these decks, and don't hesitate to create your own unique combinations to find your perfect playstyle.
