How to Effectively Use Poison in Clash Royale

When using Poison, players need to realize that it is not meant to deal immediate, or large amounts of damage, and that its speciality is the DoT it provides. The Poison’s long duration allows it to deny swarm cards from being effectively used inside its radius. This is especially useful on offense after sending in a troop which only targets buildings or a troop that can only attack one unit at a time, since the spell will often induce an impractical counter from the opponent.

Poison is one of the best methods to deal with buildings that spawn troops, since the spell not only reduces the building’s lifetimer, but also damages down the oncoming units. This works just as well against the Witch and Night Witch, limiting their damage output and leaving them at critical amounts of health.

Poison also works as a hard counter against the Clone, as the spell’s eight second duration allows it to swiftly take out all cloned troops and possible spawns from them, while also dealing damage to the originals.

Poison is best suited for decks where you can expect your opponent to place defending troops close to their tower, and that those units will stay there for extended periods of time, which will allow Poison’s full damage to take effect.

Try combining Poison with spells like Zap, Tornado, and The Log, which keep troops inside it for longer and allow Poison to deal more Damage.
