Cannon

"Defensive building. Shoots cannonballs with deadly effect, but cannot target flying troops."

Summary

 * This card is unlockable from the Barbarian Bowl (Arena 3).
 * The Cannon is a defensive Building, firing cannonballs toward ground troops.

Strategy

 * The Cannon can be used defensively behind Arena Towers to help defend.
 * Cannons can be effectively destroyed with flying air troops, such as Minions, Balloons or a Baby Dragon to demolish the defensive Building, without the player's troops being targeted.
 * The Cannon is best placed in the radius of the player's Crown Towers, to prevent Minions from destroying it, unhindered.
 * The Cannon can be extremely useful for taking down Barbarians if placed in the right area. A Cannon/X-Bow combo or a Cannon/Inferno Tower can wreak havoc on high-hitpoint troops.

Trivia

 * On 2/2/16, the February Update decreased the Cannon's Elixir cost to 3 (from 6), its range to 6 (from 7), its lifetime to 40 sec (from 60 sec) and its hitpoints by 55%.
 * The Cannon resembles the level 4 Cannon from Clash of Clans.
