Clash Royale's Dart Goblin Evolution Draft: A Comprehensive Guide

This week in Clash Royale features the Dart Goblin Evolution Draft event, running from January 6th for a week. This guide covers everything you need to know to succeed.

How the Dart Goblin Evolution Draft Works

The event lets players experience the newly introduced Evo Dart Goblin. While similar in stats (Hitpoints, Damage, Hit Speed, and Range) to its standard counterpart, the Evo Dart Goblin's poison ability significantly boosts its effectiveness against swarms and tanks. Its poison damage, spread upon impact, makes it a formidable counter to pushes involving units like the Giant and Witch, often resulting in favorable elixir trades.

However, simply selecting the Evo Dart Goblin doesn't guarantee victory. Strategic deck building is crucial.

Winning the Dart Goblin Evo Draft Event

The event follows a draft format. Players don't use their own decks; instead, they construct a deck on the fly for each match. The game presents two cards, and players choose one for their deck, with the other card going to their opponent. This process repeats four times, demanding careful consideration of both synergistic deck building and anticipating your opponent's strategy.

Cards offered can range from air units (Phoenix, Inferno Dragon) to heavy hitters (Ram Rider, Prince, P.E.K.K.A.). Securing the Evo Dart Goblin early allows for building a supportive deck around it. Your opponent might receive cards like Evo Firecracker or Evo Bats.

Remember the importance of a strong spell card. Arrows, Poison, or Fireball are excellent choices for eliminating the Dart Goblin, various air units (Minions, Skeleton Dragons), and inflicting substantial damage on enemy towers. Strategic spell usage is key to victory.
