I’ve gathered a list of the top 10 arena decks that will definitely help you out. The list isn’t sorted in a particular order, so you’ll be able to pick a deck that suits you according to the card levels you have.
10. Miner Wall Breakers
With strong defense and a 3.0 average elixir, this deck has some potential to wreck your opponents hard. Against other heavy decks, you’ll be controlling the game completely. Keep getting good trades on defense and use this to chip damage on the other lane with your Miner or Wall Breakers.
What Miner Wall Breakers excels in:
- Chip damage, trade well and send your Miner/Wall Breakers.
- Counterattack, with such a strong defense you’ll be able to have a lot of elixir on your hands to counterattack often,
- Early game, due to the low average elixir you can out beat your opponent early on.

9. PEKKA Witch Bait
The PEKKA Witch Bait is a great defensive/counter-attack deck. You’d want to defend with your PEKKA and counter-attack by putting the Witch behind. To spice things up you can send your goblin barrel with your PEKKA, OR send it with a barbarian barrel to the other lane.
What PEKKA Witch Bait excels in:
