In Clash Royale, players need a tank card to make a successful push. Tank cards are the ones that have high Hit Points and damage rates. One tank card is usually used in a deck (not always) backed up by other troops. Tank cards in CR take up a high amount of Elixir, considering their impact in the arena.

These cards are difficult to deal with and take time to be killed. There are tank cards with different rarities in the game that one can use in their decks. This article features the three best tank cards in Clash Royale.

In-game description of Electro Giant in Clash Royale:

“He channels electricity through his Zap Pack, a unique device that stuns and damages any troop attacking him within its range. Don't tell him that his finger guns aren't real! He'll zap you.”

Electro Giant is an Epic card that can be unlocked once players reach the Electro Valley (Arena 11). He is a single-target, melee troop with very high Hit Points and low damage. Electro Giant targets only buildings and also zaps enemies at the same time.

Enemy units that hit the Electro Giant within a 3-tile radius get zapped, which stuns them. It costs 8 Elixir to play an Electro Giant.

The Mega Knight is a Legendary card that can be unlocked once the players reach the Royal Arena (Arena 7). He is a melee, splash damage troop with very high hitpoints and moderate splash damage. When deployed, Mega Knight deals spawn damage which amounts to twice the damage dealt by his regular attack.
