While aggressive, damage-dealing Champions often get all the glory, defensive heroes are the true backbone of many top-tier decks.
This article breaks down the best control-oriented champions available and how to maximize their unique, game-changing abilities.
The Unmovable Objects
The most straightforward defensive champions are massive, heavily armored behemoths designed to absorb incredible amounts of punishment.
The key to using these heroes is placing them exactly in the center of the arena, dragging the entire enemy army into a massive clump.
- Save the ability for when they are surrounded and low on health.
- Pair them with ranged support units.
- If the enemy rockets your champion and your tower, you lose massive value.
The Tacticians: Ranged Control Heroes
These characters usually have very low hitpoints and must be protected fiercely behind your Princess towers or cheap blocking units.
If an enemy drops a massive Golem, you place the Queen safely in the back, wait for the Golem to cross, and activate her cloak.
| Activation Timing | Tactical Outcome |
|---|---|
| Activating Stealth right before an enemy spell lands | The spell misses entirely, wasting the opponent's elixir and keeping your primary defender alive for the counter-attack |
| Triggering an AoE stun when enemy swarms cross the river | Freezes the entire enemy push in place, allowing your Princess tower to pick them off safely without taking damage |
The Control Roster
You need a reliable, cheap win condition (like a Miner or Goblin Barrel) that can slowly chip away at the enemy tower while your champion handles the defense.
Become the unbreakable wall, and watch the enemies shatter against you.
