Prince

"A tip from El Graco the Meso; Shank all Princes on Sight"

Summary

 * This card is unlockable from the Training Camp (Tutorial).
 * The Prince has a special ability: as he continues to run, he will gain increasing speed. Upon hitting a troop or building he will deal 2x damage while immediately losing the speed bonus. However, he can regain it if he starts to move again.

Strategy

 * The Prince is best used as an attacking troop - with his ability, the Prince can take down enemy Arena Towers with ease. Use this with other troops to your advantage.
 * With the Prince's speed when he is using his special ability, the Prince is good for early offensive attacks.
 * Pair the Prince with Witch. Due to the Witchs splash damage and its capability to attack air troops, it can cover the Prince's weaknesses and can be a very difficult combo to defeat without a large use of Elixir.
 * Swarm the Prince with cards which summon units in large numbers. This means cards such as the Skeleton Army will outnumber the Prince and cause a large distraction to him, rendering him unable to muster his charge attack.
 * A Tombstone can also be used to defeat the Prince. If a Tombstone is placed in the path of a charging Prince, the Tombstone will be destroyed and the 4 spawned Skeletons from the Tombstone's destruction can easily take out the Prince.
 * Never leave an opposing Prince alone. His high damage combined, with his double damage charge ability can allow him to easily take down an Arena Tower, individually.

Trivia

 * On 11/01/16, a balance update decreased the Prince's health by 4%.
 * The Prince is considered by most of the players as the best troop for the low levels - even considered as over powered.
 * The Prince is not related to any other Supercell game.
