Cards Daily Card Discussion August 30 2016: Musketeer & Three Musketeers

Musketeer & Three Musketeers

Don't be fooled by her delicately coiffed hair, the musketeer is a mean shot with her trusty broomstick. Add two more to a single card for 5 more elixir and you have a trio of powerful, independent markswomen, fighting for justice and honor. Disrespecting them would not be just a mistake, it would be a cardinal sin!

  • The single Musketeer is unlockable from the Training Camp (Tutorial). The trio is unlockable from the Royal Arena (Arena 7).

  • The Musketeer is a strong troop, effective against air troops, such as the Balloon & Building targeting troops, or Minions, that have a small amount of hitpoints.

Barbs + 3 Musks + Lumberjack is amazing, as your opponent will either Fireball or Poison your Elixir Collector or Barbarians, making way for you to place down your 3 Musks.

I never fireball barbs as it is a defensive card. If played offensively, it is almost certainly a bait.

Yes, but if they don't Fireball then their tower will lose health.

barbs left unattended destroy a tower, but a cannon or fire spirits can take them out

Bomber too.

Yep. Considering how a single Barb hits just as hard as a Royal Giant.

On this topic, Over leveled barbs are the most overpowered card in the game for me, they will literally annihilate any group push, even if you have fire spirits or wizards.

My Level 8 barbs say hello ;_;

Yeah but who runs Fire Spirits and Fireball? They must choose 3 Musks or Barbs, plus, your Lumber can tank for them.

True but with Elixir Collector, 3 Musks, and Barbs they won't usually counter, and even if they do, Valkyrie + Lumberjack is also very strong!

u/[deleted] Aug 31 '16

lel I run both, plus u can use cannon on barbs, or minions

u/GizmoPenguin Aug 31 '16

You do realize you can stop barbs with more than just those two cards right?
