How to Defend Against Electro Giant in Clash Royale

To defend against Electro Giant, use a building to pull it away from your Crown Tower and add a durable ground unit to deal damage. Keep ranged support spaced away from the building and Electro Giant so it is less exposed to the giant’s zap effect. If defenders survive, you can use them to start a counter-push.

Draw Electro Giant toward a building

A Cannon, Tesla, or Inferno Tower can distract Electro Giant and draw it toward the middle of the arena. That may put it within range of both Princess Towers. Place your building where it can attract the giant, and avoid clustering other defenders beside it.

Electro Giant zaps nearby attackers, so swarms and fragile troops can be vulnerable when they get close. A high-health ground unit can stay in the fight longer while attacking the giant. The supplied guidance names P.E.K.K.A and Mini P.E.K.K.A as options, but does not establish that either is the best choice.

Keep ranged support apart

If you add a ranged troop, place it farther from Electro Giant rather than directly beside your building or frontline defender. This can reduce its exposure to the zap effect while it attacks. The draft provides no exact placement that works in every situation, so adjust the spacing to the position of the giant and your other defenders.

Counter-push with survivors

Electro Giant costs 7 elixir, according to the supplied draft. After defending, check which units are still alive before committing more elixir. Add support behind surviving defenders only if you can afford it; if nothing survives, the material does not support a specific follow-up play.
