Archer Queen battle strategy
At 5 elixir, Archer Queen plays as a Champion troop that targets air & ground. Released in 2021, it remains a reliable option for balancing offense and defense.
Opening plays and tempo
Lead with Archer Queen when you can float 5 elixir. It lets you test your opponent's responses without committing a full push.
Support combinations
Pair Archer Queen with spells or support troops that amplify a troop's pressure. Knockback, rage, or splash damage keep it on the board longer.
Defensive flip
Hold Archer Queen for air & ground pushes when you need a fast trade. Survive the defense, then stack it behind surviving units for a counterattack.
Synergies and deck ideas
Cheap cycle cards help you get back to Archer Queen whenever you need its toolkit in rotation.
Mix Archer Queen with win conditions that benefit from its support or let it pressure the opposite lane as a secondary win condition.
Playing around counters
Identify hard counters early
Watch for buildings, splash damage, or swarms that shut Archer Queen down. Force those answers out with spells or opposite-lane pressure.
Spell safety
Avoid stacking Archer Queen near your tower. High-damage spells punish clumped units, so stagger deployments to reduce risk.
Upgrade priorities
Track the damage and hit point breakpoints that matter at your ladder tier. Leveling Archer Queen so it survives common counter damage keeps it relevant.
