- Summary
- The Giant Skeleton was a temporary troop that was available during the 2017 Halloween, along with Pumpkin Barbarian. They were made available again during the "Jack Skellingboom" event, along with the Ice Wizard, which lasted from 12/28/17 until 1/3/18. They were made available once again on Halloween 2018, along with Skeleton Barrel.
- They have high hitpoints and do massive damage upon death.
- Giant Skeletons prioritize defensive structures above all other targets, and will bypass all other types of enemy buildings and troops while any defenses remain on the battlefield. This is true even if they are under attack by enemy Clan Castle troops, heroes or Skeleton Trap skeletons. Note that like all troops that prioritize defenses, Giant Skeletons do not consider the Clan Castle to be a defense regardless of whether or not it contains enemy troops, but do consider the defending Grand Warden and the activated Town Hall weapon (if any) to be defensive buildings.
Once all defenses are destroyed, Giant Skeletons become like any other troop with no preferred target; they will attack the nearest building to them regardless of type, and will turn and attack enemy units if they become aware of any nearby and can fight back against them. However, they will not switch targets to enemy units until their previous target was destroyed.
- Trivia
- You could have a maximum of 16 Giant Skeletons at one time in a complete set of fully upgraded Army Camps. On the battlefield, you could clone an additional 4 Giant Skeletons with four fully upgraded Clone Spells (three from the regular spell inventory and one from a level 10 or higher Clan Castle), for a total of 20 Giant Skeletons.
- Similar to all other temporary troops, the Giant Skeleton cannot be donated through a Clan.
- Like all other temporary troops and spells, the Giant Skeleton can't be upgraded in the Laboratory. Instead, they depend on the player's Town Hall level.
- To calculate the health and damage statistics, two factors are considered: the base statistic and Town Hall multiplier.
- The base statistic for each Town Hall level equals the DPH and HP of certain levels of Giants.
- Each base statistic is multiplied by a fixed multiplier for each Town Hall level; the multiplier follows a roughly linear scale. For Town Hall level x, the multiplier is . Once the multiplier is applied, the statistic is rounded down to give the final statistic.
- Note that other statistics, such as training cost and death damage, are not multiplied by the multiplier.
- The Giant Skeleton is the third temporary troop that comes from Clash Royale, after Ice Wizard and Battle Ram. It's one of the two temporary troops from Clash Royale that prioritize defenses in Clash of Clans but doesn't only attack buildings in Clash Royale, the other is the Ice Wizard. The Giant Skeleton was added to clash royale on 4/1/2016 the date of the game's soft launch.
- The Giant Skeleton does equal damage as a Giant of the same level and has 2.5 times the Giant's hitpoints.
- Unlike his Clash Royale Counterpart, he attacks only defenses instead of everything.
- In the picture, he wears a brown Russian hat. But in the game, he wears a red one, resembling an opponent's Giant Skeleton troop in Clash Royale. The same situation applies to the Ice Wizard and Skeleton Barrel.
- The spawning sound and the attacking sound of Giant Skeleton is the same as the Giant.
