Mega Knight battle strategy
At 7 elixir, Mega Knight plays as a Legendary troop that targets ground. Released in 2017, it remains a reliable option for balancing offense and defense.
Opening plays and tempo
Lead with Mega Knight when you can float 7 elixir. It lets you test your opponent's responses without committing a full push.
Support combinations
Pair Mega Knight 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 Mega Knight for 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 Mega Knight whenever you need its toolkit in rotation.
Mix Mega Knight 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 Mega Knight down. Force those answers out with spells or opposite-lane pressure.
Spell safety
Avoid stacking Mega Knight 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 Mega Knight so it survives common counter damage keeps it relevant.
