The Musketeer's Evolution is a Rare card that is unlocked with 6 Evolution Shards. It spawns a Musketeer, with identical stats to the original. After deployment, she will gain 3 infinite-range attacks that will target the closest troop or non-Crown Tower building from anywhere in the Arena in front of her, dealing 1.5 times the damage of her normal attacks. The Musketeer's Evolution costs 4 Elixir and requires 2 cycles to deploy.

Strategy

• She can snipe spawners like the Elixir Collector easily, while also giving you a full health Musketeer for a counterattack.
  • However, this can be countered easily by placing troops, or if she targets the troops spawned, due to having only 3 sniper shots.
• She prioritizes her main attack over her sniper attack. So make sure to play her at the back as far as possible.

Trivia

• The musket is a muzzle-loaded long gun that appeared as a smoothbore weapon in the early 16th century, at first as a heavier variant of the arquebus, capable of penetrating plate armour. By the mid-16th century, this type of musket gradually disappeared as the use of heavy armour declined, but muskets continued as the generic term for smoothbore long guns until the mid-19th century. In turn, this style of musket was retired in the 19th century when rifles became common, which were more accurate than smoothbore muskets and could inflict more severe injuries.
  • In the Arabic and Persian language settings of the game, the Musketeer's name translates to "Knight" and "Riflewoman" respectively.
• The Musketeer card could be a reference to the fourth Musketeer in the novel "The Three Musketeers", D'Artagnan, who was never considered to be in the group.
• Before release, her sniper hit speed got changed to 1 sec (from 1.5 sec).
