Clash Royale: Best Three Musketeers Decks

How to Play Three Musketeers

Since they cost so much elixir, Three Musketeers have to be played with care. You can’t just play them as soon as you have enough elixir, because they’re also fairly easy to counter (or at least partially counter). The Musketeers spawn right beside each other, so they’re particularly vulnerable to spells. Lightning is the best counter for Three Musketeers since it can one-shot all three, but Rocket also does the job if it’s timed right. Fireball and Poison are also strong against them, but at least leave them with some HP left.

Luckily, there are some ways to protect them. For one, you should almost always split them behind your King Tower. You can send 2 to one side and 1 to the other to avoid losing them all to the same spell, which you should typically do unless you have a good reason not to.

Three Musketeers are pretty easy to play though once you get started. Obviously they do really well in double elixir, but you’ll also find them paired with Elixir Collector to help even more. They’re great for defending, as they output some of the highest DPS in the game as a trio. If you’re facing down a Golem, P.E.K.K.A., or other tank, Three Musketeers near or even behind your towers can be great for quick defense. But on the other side, if you’re able to connect even two at once to an enemy tower, you’ll be able to take it out in seconds.

Three Musketeers Deck 1

Cards:

• Knight (Evo)
• Wall Breakers (Evo)
• Three Musketeers
• Wild Barbarians
• Heal Spirit
• Rage
• Vines
• Berserker

To start off with, I have a deck that largely features Three Musketeers as a “surprise” element. At least towards the start of the game, I’d recommend focusing on getting an evo Knight ready and using Wall Breakers every chance you get. Wild Barbarians are the main win con here, but Wall Breakers also contribute a lot to that. Knight is such a powerful tank in general (with or without the evo) that he can distract/defend against the vast majority of ground threats. The evolved version is even tankier, so therefore better. Three Musketeers comes in mostly as a tool in the double elixir period or if an opponent leaves a big opening (like playing their own high-elixir card). If they don’t know you have it, then it can be an absolute game changer.

Since this deck comes alive more in the double elixir period and doesn’t have an Elixir Collector, it has to have a lot of defense. Knight is obviously good, but he doesn’t do enough damage alone to fully handle things by himself. Berserker is a really strong 2-elixir troop that has high DPS potential, so I like using it a lot. Wild Barbarians can also help with defending against troops with high HP. Then I have Vines as always since it’s the best card in the game right now, helping defend against air and ground troops, while also functioning as a “freeze” effect for offensive purposes.

Even though I wouldn’t recommend using Three Musketeers often until double elixir begins, you don’t have to be on full defense until then. Wall Breakers cause a lot of chaos and open up opportunities for more pushes, and it’s worth taking them when they’re there. Vines’ strength also allows you be more aggressive, but just remember that your opponent probably has it too.
