Musketeer troop — Clash Royale Merge Tactics

Rare

Reworked in Season 11 — Supercell has confirmed Musketeer 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.

Musketeer is a Rare, Noble-trait troop at 3 Elixir with no special mechanic attached — consistent single-target ranged damage is the entire identity. She's effectively the baseline every other ranged Rare troop in Merge Tactics gets measured against: reliable, unremarkable, and rarely a bad pick to fall back on.

Also in the Base Game

Musketeer exists in the main Clash Royale deck-building game too, where it's a rare card costing 4 Elixir per deployment in a deck. Merge Tactics fields it differently — bought from the shop for 3 Elixir and merged for star upgrades, rather than cycled through a deck.
