Clash Royale’s A Tale of Thieves season has felt like a rollercoaster, with season shop changes, new cards, evos, and wild weekly events like Loot and Lashes. Now, without even realizing it, we’ve hit the season’s final event: 7x Elixir, which is running from April 28 to May 5.
In this mode, your cards load seven times faster than usual, turning every match into pure madness. The good news is that all cards are fair game, including champions and evolutions. But in a mode this fast, one wrong card choice can cost you the match. This guide will walk you through some of the best decks to help you steal crowns and get a solid shot at beating the event challenge, too.

Clash Royale: Best Decks for 7x Elixir Event
Here are the three best decks to use in the 7x Elixir event:
Deck 1
|
Cards |
Cost |
|
Evo Royal Recruits |
Seven Elixir |
|
Evo P.E.K.K.A |
Seven Elixir |
|
Boss Bandit |
Six Elixir |
|
Mega Knight |
Seven Elixir |
|
Night Witch |
Four Elixir |
|
Four Elixir |
|
|
Three Musketeers |
Nine Elixir |
|
Executioner |
Five Elixir |
The average cost of this deck sits at 6.3, which might seem too heavy for most game modes—but in the 7x Elixir event, it works like a charm since your cards cycle super fast. This event is more about staying aggressive, so instead of playing it safe, kick things off with tanks like P.E.K.K.A, Mega Knight, or even Royal Recruits to control both lanes. Back them up with Boss Bandit, Electro Dragon, Night Witch, and Three Musketeers. Executioner helps wipe out both air and ground threats easily. Keep spawning cards nonstop, and be sure to drop your evolutions whenever they’re ready.
Deck 2

Cards |

Evo Mega Knight |

Skeleton Dragons |
Four Elixir |
|
Witch |
Five Elixir |
In the 7x Elixir event, starting with Royal Recruits is indeed the best move. After that, you can leave beat-down troops like Goblinstein, Golem, and Mega Knight to smash through enemy troops and towers. Mega Knight is truly handy for clearing out swarms like Skeletons and Skeleton Army, and even handling building cards or ranged troops. Electro Dragon and Skeleton Dragons are great for dealing with air units or backing up your pushes. Witch can be a real lifesaver, too, especially against sneaky attacks like barrels and Goblin Drills that go straight for your towers.
Deck 3
|
Cards |
Cost |
|
Evo P.E.K.K.A |

|
Evo Goblin Barrel |
Three Elixir |
|
Lava Hound |

|
Electro Wizard |
Four Elixir |
|
Six Elixir |
|
|
Mighty Miner |
Four Elixir |
|
Skeleton Army |
Three Elixir |
|
Executioner |
Five Elixir |
This deck brings a nice mix of tanks and fraggers. On one side of the bridge, focus on offense—drop P.E.K.K.A and Mighty Miner to go for the enemy tower. On the other side, play defensively. If the enemy sends out ranged units, Electro Wizard and Executioner are great for shutting them down. Sparky and Skeleton Army can support your team, while Goblin Barrel and Lava Hound are perfect for putting pressure on towers. Once you’ve taken down one of their towers, keep stacking your army on their side to finish the match strong.
