Archers
Clan
Reworked in Season 11 — Supercell has confirmed Archers is getting new mechanics but hasn't published exact numbers yet. The stats and ability text below are what shipped before the rework and are still accurate until it lands.
Archers is a Common troop in Clash Royale's Merge Tactics mode, carrying the Clan trait and costing 2 Elixir from the shop. It deploys as two separate ranged units rather than one, so a single card gives two independent sources of ranged damage — useful early when board space matters more than raw stats.

Also in the Base Game
Archers exists in the main Clash Royale deck-building game too, where it's a common card costing 3 Elixir per deployment in a deck. Merge Tactics fields it differently — bought from the shop for 2 Elixir and merged for star upgrades, rather than cycled through a deck.
