Dart Goblin – Dubbed poor man's Princess, this has the range of Royal Giant. He moves and attacks fast. He has the same health as Princess, but can wreak more damage than Princess. He hits single target at a time.

Executioner – He can wipe out Skeletons/Goblins/Minions with relative ease. He uses his axe like a boomerang, damaging the targets twice. He will be able to survive Lightning and any other spells. He has the range and movement speed of the Wizard but slower attack rate and damage per second.

Battle Ram – It is a ground troop that charges like Prince/Dark Prince. Further, it picks speed as it sprints and deals double damage on its targets. But Battle Ram only targets buildings like Inferno Tower/Tombstone/Furnace. After hitting its target or being taken down, it is be able to spawn 2 Barbarians immediately.

Goblin Gang – This card will be able to spawns 6 Goblins — 3 Spears and 3 Knives. They will deal some quick damage, with Spear Goblins supporting from behind.

Sneak Peek #3 – Donate Epic Cards on Sunday
Players of Clash Royale can request and donate their Epic Cards on Sunday after the January update. This can be done for half the price of Epics in the Shop and possibility of Epic Chests giving out more cards.
