Mother Witch
Mother Witch overview
Card stats
Description
Places a curse on enemy troops with each attack. When a cursed troop is destroyed, it turns into a building-targeting Hog that fights alongside the Mother Witch. She also bakes great cookies.
Mother Witch battle strategy
At 4 elixir, Mother Witch plays as a Legendary troop that targets air & ground. Released in 2020, it remains a reliable option for balancing offense and defense.
Opening plays and tempo
Lead with Mother Witch when you can float 4 elixir. It lets you test your opponent's responses without committing a full push.
Support combinations
Pair Mother Witch 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 Mother Witch 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 Mother Witch whenever you need its toolkit in rotation.
Mix Mother Witch 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 Mother Witch down. Force those answers out with spells or opposite-lane pressure.
Spell safety
Avoid stacking Mother Witch 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 Mother Witch so it survives common counter damage keeps it relevant.
