Clash of Clans Characters: Understanding Their Abilities and How to Use Them

It’s no secret that the mobile game Clash of Clans has won the hearts of millions of players around the world. Having access to such a diverse cast of characters to utilize in assembling and commanding armies and defending bases is a major draw of the game.

This article will go into the Clash of Clans characters, examining them, their skills, and the best way to employ them to construct an unstoppable army.

There are four primary types of Clash of Clans characters: Elixir troops, Dark Elixir troops, Super Troops, and Heroes. Here’s a bit about all of the characters in a bit more depth.

Clash of Clans Heroes

The Heroes of your army are the most powerful fighters in the group, and they may be leveled up to increase their effectiveness even further. At the time of writing this, Clash of Clans has four heroes, all of which are discussed below:

1. Barbarian King: The Royal King is a specialist when it comes to clearing the ground defense. The special ability, Rage, allows the Barbarian King to get support from the barbarian army, which makes it even more powerful.
2. Archer Queen: This queen is not limited to attacking ground defenses. Even if something appears from the clan castle (Dragon, Balloon, Etc), Archer Queen will help you wipe them out. Her special ability is to turn invisible and the archer army.
3. Grand Warden: Like the warden is the real caretaker of any place, Grand Warden is regarded as the real caretaker of your home village. Upon using its special ability, Grand Warden heals all the players who are in a specific radius of him.
4. Royal Champion: A most recent addition to the game, Royal Champion has a short-range spear attack. Moreover, when she unlocks the Seeking Shield skill, she can toss her shield at enemies to break through their defenses.
5. Royal pets: These characters include Mighty Yak, LASSI, Electro Owl, Unicorn, Diggy, Frosty, and more.

Super troopers are just upgraded versions of all the troops. A prefix of “Super” is added in most of them when you train these troops. Moreover, players only of Town Hall 13 or above can train these troops. All the super troopers have more hit points, damage ratings, and abilities than normal versions. Super Barbarian, Rocket Balloon, and Super Archer are some examples.
