• 10 Root Riders
• 12 Valkyrie
• Apprentice Warden
• 2 Minions
• 3 Clone Spells
• 1 Overgrowth Spell
• Seige Barracks
• Barbarian King

Drop Seige Barracks on one of the corners of the base to create a funnel. Then, deploy Root Riders, Valkyries, Barbarian King, and Archer Queen, backed by the Grand Warden, in the side adjacent to the funnel.

Send the Royal Champion from the other side of the corner, after most defenses are cleared or already are targeting something else. Use the Clone spell to multiply Root Riders and Valkyries and the Overgrowth spell to neutralize the defensive buildings.

3) Root Riders and Druids

Army Required

• 2 Wizards
• 8 Root Riders
• 10 Valkyrie
• 1 Headhunter
• 4 Druids
• 3 Clone spells
• 1 Overgrown spell
• Seige Barrack
• Barbarian King
• Archer Queen
• Grand Warden
• Royal Champion

Create a funnel by dropping the Seige Barracks in the corner of the base. The troops that emerge from the Barracks should be accompanied by Druids for support and healing. Druids heal for the first 30 seconds of being spawned. Additionally, using a clone spell on a Druid will spawn new Druids that can continue to heal.

To complete the funnel, send a few Valkyries and Wizards from the adjacent corner. For the second half of the funnel, Barbarian King with Druids can also be used, instead of Valkyries and Wizards.

After funneling, send the main army, Root Riders, King Queen, and Grand Warden through the middle of the corners. Additionally, using a clone spell on a Druid will spawn new Druids that can heal again. However, if the spell is used on a Druid after 30 seconds, the clone will be a bear and unable to heal. Use the overgrowth spell on defensive buildings so they can be neutralized until attacked.
