Card stats
Description
Goblin Machine has two arms for melee and one big rocket for faraway targets. Who let a baby drive this thing?
Goblin Machine battle strategy
At 5 elixir, Goblin Machine plays as a Legendary troop that targets air & ground. Released in 2024, it remains a reliable option for balancing offense and defense.
Opening plays and tempo
Lead with Goblin Machine when you can float 5 elixir. It lets you test your opponent's responses without committing a full push.
Support combinations
Pair Goblin Machine 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 Goblin Machine 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 Goblin Machine whenever you need its toolkit in rotation.
Mix Goblin Machine 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 Goblin Machine down. Force those answers out with spells or opposite-lane pressure.
Spell safety
Avoid stacking Goblin Machine 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 Goblin Machine so it survives common counter damage keeps it relevant.
