Muskeeter

Summary

• The Musketeer is unlockable from the Training Camp (Tutorial). 
• She is a single target, medium range Troop with moderate hitpoints. 
• The Musketeer has a high damage output but relatively few hitpoints. 
• The Musketeer has purple combed hair, a musket, and a metal helmet with a tiny crater on it, 

Strategy

• The Musketeer can be used to backup higher hitpoint troops such as Giants. 
• As the Musketeer can target both Air and Ground troops, she is a powerful substitute to Archers, albeit at the price of a higher Elixir cost. 
• Her long range allows the Musketeer to help attack from a distance without engaging the defending troops. 
  • The Musketeer's long range (6 tiles) is effective against Crown Towers, as the King's Tower will be unable to target her if she is attacking an Arena Tower. 
• The Musketeer is a single target troop, so cards such as the Skeleton Army or Tombstone are effective counters against her. 
• The Musketeer is an effective counter to the Cannon. Due to her long range, she can outrange the Cannon and destroy it unharmed. 
• She is a good counter to the Baby Dragon, as she can destroy it on her own. 
• Well placed high level Minion Hordecan destroy her quickly. 
• Musketeers are extremely effective against Balloons as their slow movement speed enables her to land enough shots to destroy them before they reach a Crown Tower. 

Trivia

• On 9/2/16, the Chest Rewards & Card Balance Update decreased her damage by 25% and her Elixir cost to 4 (from 5). 
• On 19/2/16, the Balance Updateincreased her damage by 11%. 
• On 3/5/16, the May Update fixed the "range bug" and decreased the Musketeer's range to 6 (from 6.5) but her effective range is unchanged. 
• The Musketeer's face is very similar to the Archer's face, and her purple hair is similar to the level six Archers in Clash of Clans.
