Strategies to counter Night Witch in Clash Royale

1) Use splash damage troops

Using splash damage troops in Clash Royale is one of the best strategies to use against the Night Witch. Since they can target many units at once, cards like the Baby Dragon, Wizard, Executioner, and Valkyrie are great options to use in this battle because they can quickly dispatch the Night Witch.

Arrange these forces in a way that will optimize their impact and allow them to aim at the Night Witch as soon as she enters the battleground. Tornado can also be used in conjunction with splash damage soldiers to group enemy troops for even more potent attacks.


2) Deploy high-damage single-target units

The Night Witch in Clash Royale summons a swarm of Bats, which can be effectively neutralized by splash-damage troops, but high-damage single-target units can dispatch her before she poses a serious problem.

Cards in Clash Royale that can do a lot of damage to single targets, such as the Mini P.E.K.K.A., Mega Minion, and Knight, can also easily take out the Night Witch.

Make use of these troops to take direct aim at the Night Witch, deflecting her bats with other units or spells. To reduce the possibility of your high-damage options being overrun by the Bats, pay attention to her range and position them appropriately.


3) Employ ground-targeting troops and spells

Because the Night Witch generates air units (Bats), you can deal with her without interruption from ground diversions by using ground-targeting soldiers. Cards such as the Knight, Prince, and Dark Prince can directly lock onto her.

Furthermore, the Night Witch and Bats she births can both take damage from spells like Fireball and Poison, which can either weaken or destroy them. Control the battle's tempo by tactically using air-targeting units and spells to put pressure on the Night Witch in Clash Royale.
