The December 2022 Balance Changes are now live, and with it, the Phoenix and the Monk have finally been nerfed amongst other changes.
So, you will be needing some new decks to match the new Clashmas meta.
Take a look at our top five best Clash Royale decks for the current meta below.
LumberLoon + Double Dragon
The LumberLoon deck has been a classic in Clash Royale for some time now, but the addition of both the Electro and Inferno Dragon takes it to the next level.
To run the LumberLoon + Double Dragon deck, you’ll need the following cards:
- Balloon
- Barbarian Barrel
- Bowler
- Electro Dragon
- Freeze
- Inferno Dragon
- Lumberjack
- Tornado
Mighty Miner Log Bait
If you are a fan of a Log Bait deck then this one should work perfectly with the current meta! You may want to opt for the overpowered Dart Goblin in place of the Cannon if your levels arent quite right.
To run the Mighty Miner Log Bait deck, you’ll need the following cards:
- Cannon
- Goblin Barrel
- Goblins
- Ice Spirit
- Mighty Miner
- Princess
- Rocket
- The Log
Royal Giant + Fisherman
The key to using this deck is to hit your opponent on the counter-attack by placing the Royal Giant in front of your defensive troops.
To run the Royal Giant + Fisherman deck, you’ll need the following cards:
- Electro Spirit
- Electro Wizard
- Fireball
- Fisherman
- Mighty Miner
- Mother Witch
- Royal Giant
- Log
Hog Rider + Earthquake Deck
This deck is extremely well balanced with the Mortar providing cover in both defence and attack. You may wish to add in the Freeze spell but we'd go with the Earthquake in order to destroy those buildings and let the Hog go to work.
To run the Hog Rider + Earthquake deck, you’ll need the following cards:
- Earthquake
- Goblins
- Hog Rider
- Ice Spirit
- Mighty Miner
- Mortar
- Musketeer
- The Log
Golem + Phoenix Deck
Despite the balancing changes, the Phoenix is still a useful card in Clash Royale. You will need to get that Elixir Pump down and start saving for a giant push with the Golem at the helm.
To run the Golem + Phoenix deck, you’ll need the following cards:
- Barbarian Barrel
- Dark Prince
- Electro Dragon
- Elixir Pump
- Golem
- Lumberjack
- Phoenix
- Tornado
