Top Dark Prince Decks

What Does Dark Prince Do?

Dark Prince is a ground-only melee troop with area damage, meaning each hit affects a small radius rather than just one target. He starts with a shield that absorbs the first hit he takes, effectively giving him extra hitpoints before real damage begins.

When given enough room to run before reaching a target, he charges forward and deals double damage on that connecting hit - similar in spirit to the regular Prince, but with splash instead of single-target damage.

Where Dark Prince Fits

Dark Prince works well both offensively and defensively - his shield and splash damage make him a solid mini-tank that can also clear small groups of support troops on his own.

How to Counter Dark Prince

Ranged troops can chip away at his shield safely from a distance before he ever closes in. Once the shield is gone, a swarm can often overwhelm him, since his splash only covers so many targets at once.
