The cards have been categorized into 5 rarities - Common, Rare, Epic, Legendary, and Champion. Cards of all rarities except Champion cards, which are only available to players after they reach Crown level 14, can be unlocked by players of any level.

In-game description of Mega Minion reads:

“Flying, armored and powerful. What could be its weakness?! Cupcakes.”

Mega Minion is a rare card that can be unlocked by players once they reach the Barbarian Bowl (Arena 3). It is a flying, single-target melee troop with moderate hitpoints and moderately-high damage. The Mega Minion has slow attacking speed but deals pretty good damage with each attack.

A Mega Minion card costs 3 Elixir to deploy. The Mega Minion was added to Clash Royale on September 19, 2016. It has 395 Hit Points and deals a damage of 92 per second at the base level. Currently, the card possesses only 14 levels. However, there is a possibility that more levels will be added later on.

Mega Minion works very well on defense but cannot be of much use when sent alone on offense. Mega Minions have a higher damage output when compared to minions, but have slower movement speed which makes them more suitable as a defensive card.

It can also counter area damage units such as the Witch, Wizard, Baby Dragon, and Executioner without being destroyed. The troop can also survive spells like Zap and Poison due to its moderate Hit Point amount.
