Electro Dragon
Electro Dragon overview
Card stats
Description
Spits out bolts of electricity hitting up to three targets. Suffers from middle child syndrome to boot.
Electro Dragon battle strategy
At 5 elixir, Electro Dragon plays as a Epic troop that targets air & ground. Released in 2018, it remains a reliable option for balancing offense and defense.
Opening plays and tempo
Lead with Electro Dragon when you can float 5 elixir. It lets you test your opponent's responses without committing a full push.
Support combinations
Pair Electro Dragon 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 Electro Dragon 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 Electro Dragon whenever you need its toolkit in rotation.
Mix Electro Dragon 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 Electro Dragon down. Force those answers out with spells or opposite-lane pressure.
Spell safety
Avoid stacking Electro Dragon 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 Electro Dragon so it survives common counter damage keeps it relevant.
