C-6 here, with a powerful Royal Giant/Witch deck. This deck was inspired by another deck here on CRA that uses cheap troops for cycling. This deck, however, looks to counter as cycling. This deck utilizes the power of the Witch, a pretty much taboo card in Arena 7/8. The Cards - Royal Giant Your main tanker. If you are reading this you should know that you put him at the bridge after building up a push. - Witch Place her at the back when you have two elixir pumps or if you know you have a crushing elixir advantage. - Rage Once you have both Royal Giant and Witch, and hopefully a few more support troops, RAGE EVERYTHING. They really can't stop the destruction to their tower. - Valkyrie Use it mainly on defense until you are ready to push. She destroys those pesky Barbarians that want to kill your Royal Giant too. Your secondary tank. - Barbarians Barbarians is your main defense card. Use it when you can't defend with cheaper troops. Because this deck has no defenses, Barbarians defend against Hog, Royal Giant, and M. Pekka/Miner decks. - Elixir Collector You can't live without it. - Princess (replacement Arrows) Princess is just such a great support for the Royal Giant. - Ice Wizard (replacement Musketeer) Another defense, although it can be used to attack as well. Avoid using Witch and Royal Giant until you have to use the Witch for defense or 2x has started. Keep defending, but don't counterattack so you have the chance to put down more elixir collectors. As long as you keep making positive trades, you should win. The exception is the Sparky deck. If you see Sparky, attack on the other lane, even if you lose elixir by abandoning the original lane. This deck is super inconsistent. When I first started using it, I went from 2400 to 2600 without losing, then 2600 to 2200 without winning, and from there went on to 2800. Then I went down to 2500 and pushed to 3000 from there. Then I decided to stop using this deck. But this deck is good regardless for pushing in Arena 7.
