Arena 14 is where you can get the Firecracker card, which is a Common rarity card. It summons a single-target long-range unit with low hitpoints and high area damage. The Firecracker is an Archer with a firecracker and headband. The in-game description of the Firecracker is:

"Shoots a firework that explodes on impact, damaging the target and showering anything behind it with sparks. This is what happens when Archers get bored!"

The firework's impact does not cause harm; instead, it causes all five fragments of shrapnel to clump together, producing the illusion. As each bit of shrapnel is a distinct strike, not as much of her damage is lost versus shielded units.

Four shrapnel pieces, for example, will break an intact Dark Prince shield, while the final piece of shrapnel will hurt the Dark Prince himself. Thus, it can be used as a low-elixir counter to many high hitpoint troops.

She possesses the same hitpoints as Archer. Anything that would kill an Archer, such as Arrows, would likewise kill a Firecracker in one shot. The Firecracker, on the other hand, can deliver a lot of damage before finishing because it deals damage with high hit speed.

How to use Firecracker?

A Firecracker might activate King Tower; therefore, players prefer to use her during defense and not while attacking. The various ways in which Firecracker can be used are:

• She can be used the same way as the Magic Archer card to deal area damage by angling her to strike another unit and letting the shrapnel hit the tower. The closer the unit is to the tower, the more damage it will receive.
• The Balloon goes well with the Firecracker. The Firecracker aids in the destruction of air swarms while the Balloon absorbs the tower's damage.
• It's a fantastic strategy to send a Miner to the back of the Princess Tower while the Firecracker finishes defending. When the Firecracker fires on the tower and the opponent uses swarms to counter the Miner, the shrapnel from the Firecracker will splash onto those troops.

Finally, Firecracker is one of the best cards in Clash Royale as it can deal a lot of area damage to both air and ground troops. Players can unlock it using Chests or Shop Quests.
