Strategies to use Hunter in Clash Royale

1) Optimal placement for maximum damage

When positioned properly, the Hunter in Clash Royale is excellent at dealing burst damage to numerous adversaries. Placing him close to the opposing troops maximizes damage output because his shotgun rounds spread, ensuring that all of the pellets hit.

The Hunter in Clash Royale should be positioned in the middle of your side to cover a large area and effectively remove swarms such as Skeleton Army or Goblin Gang. Use a tank, such as the Giant or Golem in Clash Royale, alongside the Hunter to launch an offensive. While the Hunter causes heavy damage to the enemy's troops and defenses, the tank takes the brunt of the hits.

2) Synergize with other cards for effective combos

The Hunter in Clash Royale can be used to dominate the battlefield and to increase his effectiveness when combined with other cards. Combining Zap or Log can also be very efficient in clearing out low-health swarms that could otherwise overwhelm the Hunter.

The Hunter may also be used to control enemy troops by combining him with cards like Ram Rider, which will buy him more time to launch his devastating close-range assaults. When paired with burst damage, this is especially helpful against high-health units like the Mega Minion in Clash Royale, which can quickly change the course of the battle.

3) Countering enemy strategies with Hunter

When it comes to specific adversary strategy types, the Hunter excels. When positioned properly, he may quickly deplete the health of high-HP troops like the Giant, Royal Giant, and Golem against tank-heavy strategies. The Hunter's spread shot, when used for air defense, can easily eliminate balloon units such as the Balloon or Lava Hound, particularly when it is positioned immediately beneath them.

His burst damage can deal with massed units effectively in swarm situations as long as he is shielded from being overpowered by sheer numbers. The Hunter will live longer and deal more damage if he is properly supported by secondary defensive troops or splash damage spells.
