Best cards for Gold Mines arena of Goblin Queen's Journey in Clash Royale

1) Goblin Giant

Elixir cost: 6

Damage: 256 (at maximum level)

Hitpoints: 4706 (at maximum level)

Goblin Giant is an epic category card that can be unlocked by players once they reach Jungle Arena of Clash Royale. He is a building-targeting ground troop who is a very crucial card for the Gold Mines arena. He has very high hit points and damage. The best thing about Goblin Giant is that he carries two Spear Goblins on his back who deal additional damage to enemy towers and troops.

Players should preferably use Goblin Giant as a tank with other low-elixir attacking cards like Goblin Demolisher, Goblin Gang, Spear Goblins, Knight, Musketeer, and more. Try to protect Goblin Giant from enemy low-elixir air troops using Arrows and Zap.


2) Goblin Demolisher

Elixir cost: 4

Damage: 186 (at level 11)

Hitpoints: 1300 (at level 11)

Goblin Demolisher is a rare category card that can be unlocked by players once they enter the Gold Mins arena of Goblin Queen's Journey in Clash Royale. He is a single-target ground troop with moderate hitpoints and damage.

Goblin Demolisher continually throws dynamites on enemy troops and towers until he reaches 50% health. Once his health reaches 50%, he stops throwing dynamites and quickly charges toward the building or tower dealing high damage. Players should use Goblin Demolisher with tanks like Goblin Giant and Giant to protect him from the enemy's tower damage.


3) Log

Elixir cost: 2

Damage: 422 (at maximum level)

Log is a legendary spell card that can be unlocked by players once they reach the Electro Valley arena of Clash Royale. It is one of the most useful spells in the Gold Mines arena as it can easily take down a full army of Goblins. Players should use it as a counter to Goblin Gang, Goblin Barrel, and Spear Goblins.

Log can also be used as a final card to take down towers that are low on health. It deals a crown tower damage of around 85. You should keep multiple spells in your deck in this game mode, like Log and Arrows or Zap.


4) Goblin Cage

Elixir cost: 4

Hitpoints: 1137 (at maximum level)

Goblin Cage is a must-have card in the Gold Mines arena deck as it can stop building targeted troops to attack towers. It is a rare building category card that can be unlocked from the Goblin Stadium arena of the game. It attracts all the building-targeted cards towards itself and spawns a Goblin Brawler when broken.

Goblin Brawler is a massive troop that has moderate hitpoints and damage. It deals a maximum damage of 446 per second and has 1575 hitpoints. A Goblin Brawler when combined with Spear Goblins or Knight can easily take down Goblin Giant as well as other heavy tanks in the game.


5) Knight

Elixir cost: 3

Damage: 293 (at maximum level)

Hitpoints: 2566 (at maximum level)

Knight is a common category of ground troops that is unlocked once players complete the in-game training. He is a ground-targeting melee card with moderate damage but high hitpoints. For just an elixir cost of three, he is the best ground counterattack troop for Goblin Giant and Goblin Demolisher.

Although Knight does not increase the bar of Baby Goblins, you should still use him in the Gold Mines arena as taking an all-Goblin army might make you prone to spells like Arrows, Zap, and Log. Knight has the ability to take down even the highest hitpoint troops along with the help of a few low-elixir friendly cards.
