Champions are one of the rarest cards in Clash Royale, and Supercell doesn’t release them too often. The last time we got a new one was Goblinstein in October 2024. And now after a long wait, Clash Royale has finally added a new champion: Boss Bandit.
Like other Champion cards, Boss Bandit also has a special ability that you can activate by spending an extra elixir. But what exactly does it do, and what kind of decks work best with her? Here’s everything you need to know about Boss Bandit in Clash Royale.
Clash Royale: Best Evo Executioner Decks
Evo Executioner is one of the most powerful evolutions in Clash Royale. Here's everything you need to know about it.
What Does Boss Bandit Do?
Players can only unlock Boss Bandit after reaching Arena 17 in Clash Royale. She costs six elixir and is the most expensive champion in the game. The game describes it as:
‘The boss of the forest gang finally shows her face… Kind of. Boss Bandit dashes to her targets and is invulnerable while dashing. When things get tough, her pair of grenades are at the ready.’
Just like the regular Bandit, Boss Bandit dashes toward enemies that are 3.5 to 6 tiles away. This dash deals a ton of damage and can wipe out some low to mid HP troops in one go. Some examples include Mother Witch, Magic Archer, Firecracker, Bomber, and Dart Goblin. However, this dash alone won’t be strong enough to kill higher HP troops like Ice Wizard or Musketeer.
What really makes Boss Bandit scary is her special push ability. When you activate it, she goes invisible for a second and then teleports six tiles backward. With this ability, fans will be able to dodge spells like Fireball and Rocket.
