The Mud Pit arena is the second battleground in the Goblin Queen's Journey, which starts with 1000 trophies. It unlocks the Goblin Curse spell, which is one of the strongest cards in the game mode. Players who reach the Mud Pit arena must choose powerful troops and spells to make the best 8-card arena deck.

Goblin Queen's Journey was recently released by Clash Royale developer Supercell in the June 2024 season. It involves using Goblin troops and spells to activate the Baby Goblin's ability of Queen's Tower. Players can choose any unlocked card in their deck, but should prefer using Goblin cards as they will help activate Baby Goblins multiple times in battle.

Best cards for Mud Pit arena in Clash Royale

1) Bowler

Elixir cost: 5

Damage per second: 167 (level 15)

Hit points: 3029 (level 15)

Bowler is one of the strongest cards to use in the Mud Pit arena, thanks to its chain damage ability. It is an epic card that can be unlocked after reaching the Rascal's Hideout arena. Unlike the other chain ability cards, it boasts high hit points and damage.

Bowler is an area-damaging and ground-targeting troop that can be used against the enemy's counterattacks. His rock not only damages multiple troops but pushes them back as well.

Players should try using Bowler with air attacking low elixir cards like Minions and Musketeers. Using him along with a tank is another way of reaching close to the enemy's crown tower and dealing a good amount of damage.

2) Goblin Giant

Elixir cost: 6

Damage per second: 170 (level 15)

Hit points: 4706 (level 15)

Once players reach Clash Royale's Jungle Arena, they can unlock the Goblin Giant card. He is an epic category ground troop that targets buildings and is an essential card for the Mud Pit arena.

His damage and hit points are exceptionally high, so players should use him both as a defender and attacker according to the situation. The two Spear Goblins that Goblin Giant carries on his back deal extra damage to enemy troops and towers. They inflict 70 damage per second and have 193 hit points.

Goblin Giant is best used as a tank by players with other low-elixir attacking cards such as Musketeer, Spear Goblins, Goblin Demolisher, and Knight. Use Arrows and Log to defend Goblin Giant from opposing low-elixir army swarms.

3) Goblin Curse Spell

Elixir cost: 2

Damage per second: 198 (level 15)

Goblin Curse spell is one of the strongest cards in Clash Royale that players can unlock after reaching the Mud Pit arena. It is an epic category spell that turns all the destroyed troops in the spell radius into Goblins.

These Goblins have 293 hit points and deal a damage per second of 159 at level 15. It can be used both offensively and defensively, but players should employ it against army swarms like Skeleton Army, Bats, and Goblin Gang.

The Goblin Curse spell deals a lot of damage, so players should use it along with defending troops during the enemy's counterattacks. It should be not used against buildings and defenses.

4) Goblin Cage

Elixir cost: 4

Hit points: 1137 (level 15)

Goblin Cage is a must-have card in the Mud Pit arena decks because it prevents building targeted troops like Hog Rider and Goblin Giant from attacking towers. It is a rare category-building card that can be obtained once players reach the game's Goblin Stadium arena.

It draws all building-targeted cards to itself and, when broken, summons a powerful Goblin Brawler: a strong troop with high hitpoints and damage. It can deal up to 446 damage per second and has 1575 hitpoints.

A Goblin Brawler, when coupled with Goblin Gang or Knights, can easily defeat the Giant and other tanks in the game. Players should use spells like Goblin Curse and Arrows to defend Goblin Cage from the enemy's army swarms.

5) Arrows

Elixir cost: 3

Damage: 534 (level 15)

The Goblin Queen's Journey game mode requires players to add multiple spells in their battle decks. These spells are highly effective against Goblin swarms in the Mud Pit arena like Goblin Barrel, Goblin Gang, and Spear Goblins. Arrows is a common category spell capable of attacking both air and ground troops.

Players can unlock it after completing the in-game training. The spell should be used instantly with Goblin Barrel to protect the Goblins from the counterattacks.
