What is the Royal Ghost Evolution in Clash Royale?
The Royal Ghost Evolution is a legendary arena-12 unit that drifts invisibly through the arena until it attacks, then it becomes visible to strike for a bit. After 1.8 seconds, it becomes invisible again. It spawns two spectrals called Souldiers that deal AoE damage upon appearing on every attacker. These spawners stay invisible and vanish quickly, making the card excellent at clearing swarm units and chipping towers over time.
The rotation of stealth and aggression forces opponents to spend direct damage or area spells during its visible moments or be punished by pressure that’s difficult to predict. The mix of stealth windows and spawn splash allows it to fit into many types of builds. It’s an excellent card for low-elixir cycle and midrange decks because it costs three elixir. Of course, like every evolution card in the game, getting your hands on it is easier said than done. The good news is that you can always utilize LootBar’s services to ensure you get it.
Royal Hogs, Royal Ghost, & Zappies deck
Cards:
Arrows
Fisherman
Giant Skeleton
Mother Witch
Royal Ghost (Evo)
Royal Hogs
Skeleton Army (Evo)
Zappies
Average elixir: 3.9
This is a bridge-spam deck that utilizes Royal Hogs as the win condition. The Royal Ghost Evolution works as a low-cost invisible spacer and swarm clearer, especially when paired with Arrows. Giant Skeleton and Mother Witch provide the player with heavy area denial, while Fisherman and Zappies give control. Skeleton Army and Royal Ghost punish opponents if they overcommit and clear cheap units that would usually shut down a Hogs push.
Players must play it as a flexible 4-card cycle. Start with Royal Hogs or Ghost at the bridge to force the opponent to use spells, then follow up with Giant Skeleton or Mother Witch to convert the value. The Evolution’s repeated invisible windows let players bait out spells like The Log or Poison with the Hogs, then punish with Souldiers that make the spell timing hard for the opponent. Players need to use Zappies and Fisherman to survive big pushes and turn surviving attackers into a counter-push.
Miner, Poison, & Goblin Hut deck
Cards:
Barbarian Barrel
Goblin Hut
Miner
Minions
Poison
Royal Ghost (Evo)
Skeletons
Wall Breakers (Evo)
Average elixir: 2.8
This is a fast cycle deck that uses constant pressure from Goblin Hut and chip damage from Miners. The Royal Ghost Evolution works as a bait card and a small-area controller. Wall Breakers and Skeletons create threats that force opponents to retaliate, while the invisible spawns help clear small swarms that would usually shut down the player’s tempo. Poison provides the finishing chip damage and control over counters.
Players grind for value by cycling cheap cards to apply Miner and Hut pressure. Then, they use the Ghost Evolution to punish clumped defenses or to bait out spells. Since the deck’s average elixir cost is relatively low, players can upcycle heavy counters and repeatedly chip towers where the Evolution’s stealthed spawn damage stacks up over time to weaken the enemy’s towers. This deck really shines near the end of battles, when the double elixir buff kicks in. Because of the relatively low average elixir cost, it’s more than possible to spam units to overwhelm and overpower the enemy.
Royal Giant, Electro Spirit, & Barbarian Barrel deck
Cards:
Barbarian Barrel
Electro Spirit
Fireball
Fisherman
Hunter
Royal Ghost (Evo)
Royal Giant (Evo)
Skeletons
Average elixir: 3.0
This Royal Giant hybrid deck uses Evolution as a support and cleaner for heavy single-target threats. The Royal Giant applies steady tower pressure, while the Royal Ghost Evolution protects it from swarms. Fisherman and Hunter work because they can defend against heavy pushes, with Fireball and Electro Spirit working as the spell package for clutch trades.
The Royal Giant is the win condition, while the Royal Ghost Evolution can cover moments when small troops like Bats and Skeletons try to kill the giant. The Ghost’s stealthed spawn forces enemies to commit to cheap spells or allow the Royal Giant to get extra hits. Players can cycle Skeletons with Barbarian Barrel or Electro Spirit to turn around defensive moments. The trick is to spawn so many small units around the Royal Giant that the enemy is forced to choose between using a weak card with AoE damage to take out those troops or a strong card with single-target damage to take down the giant.
Conclusion
This concludes our favorite Royal Ghost Evolution decks in Clash Royale. All three of these decks are fairly strong and can be utilized alongside the Royal Ghost evo card to spread chaos on the battlefield. However, none of these cards leaves room for flexibility. This means that if you don’t have even one of the cards mentioned in the deck, then you may have to buy a Clash Royale top up to change that.
