Best Clash Royale epic cards

39 ELO points separate P.E.K.K.A. from Witch at the top of the Clash Royale Epic Card ranking, after 5941 duels.

P.E.K.K.A. wins 67% of its duels and edges out Witch by 39 points, while Prince trails in third place with 1373 ELO. The sharpest gap in the ranking appears between rank 4 and rank 5, where Skeleton Army holds a 64-point advantage over Goblin Barrel. This division splits the podium from the rest of the field and underscores the dominance of the top cards. Witch and Prince both win 63% of their duels, yet their ELO scores differ by 22 points, showing that volume and timing of victories matter as much as win rate. At the bottom, Cannon Cart sits at rank 27 with 1038 ELO, followed closely by Lightning at 1044 ELO and Clone at 1064 ELO. These three cards struggle to gain traction, revealing which Epic Cards fail to resonate with the community. Lightning wins just 35% of its duels, the lowest win rate among the bottom three.

How this ranking is computed

Every duel won lifts a contender and every loss drops them, by an amount that depends on the opponent's strength: beating the leader is worth more than beating the last. It is an ELO, the same principle as in chess. Duels are not drawn at random — an adaptive entropy sort puts the least predictable match-ups first, which settles the ranking far faster than a full round robin. A worldwide ranking is only published past 30 completed plays. Known limit: a contender who has faced few opponents keeps an approximate score, and the bottom of the table moves more than the podium.
