Talk:Giant Skeleton/@comment-32209039-20170607060637

To be honest this is worst single epic troop in CR. Even the dark prince still has uses. Supercell intended us to use the death damage, but it's load time is 3 seconds. Most troops evade it. And if you use a Tornado to make sure the death damage hits, then you're 99.99% doing a negative elixir trade. Has lower stats then a equal level Giant while costing more, and it's stupidly hard to get the death damage to the enemy crown tower. The article above states that a Giant Skeleton with spells ready or with a wizard is nearly invincible, however Giant Skellies get wrecked everday by fisrt having their support killed via Lightning or Rocket - and then hitting skeletons to death. Oh, remember that the current meta has the Inferno Tower and Tornado as popular cards? Oh goodie, another counter to the giant skeleton!

Seriously, a freacking Sparky is better than the Giant Skeleton.
