- Card Evolution has been one of the important gameplays in Clash Royale.
- With several new evolutions, few of the cards stand out comparatively.
Even since Clash Royale brought in the Card Evolution feature, there’s no denying that collecting and unlocking Evolution Shards has been common for a long time. Again, Clash Royale’s card evolutions keep changing the game, and some upgrades are just way better than others.
With each update, certain evolutions become must-haves, while others don’t feel as strong anymore. If you’re wondering which ones are the best this month, here’s a breakdown of the strongest card evolutions in Clash Royale, ranking them on how well they fare as of Season 69 live in March 2025.
Clash Royale Card Evolution Tier List for Season 69
With each season, Clash Royale’s evolving cards shake up the meta, making some evolutions incredibly strong while others struggle to keep up. If you’re wondering which evolved cards are dominating Season 69, this tier list will help you decide which ones to focus on.

Before that, let me explain my ratings for my tiers.
- SS Tier: These evolutions are the best in the game. Consider these cards to be upgraded first.
- S Tier: Strong evolutions that perform well but may not be as game-changing as SS-tier ones.
- A Tier: Decent evolutions that can be useful in certain scenarios but aren’t as consistent.
- B Tier: These evolutions are situational and only shine in specific decks or strategies.
- C Tier: Weak evolutions that struggle to make an impact and are generally not worth investing in.
Tier | Common | Rare | Epic | Legendary |
---|---|---|---|---|
Overpowered (SS) | Cannon Knight | Electro Dragon | Lumberjack | |
Strong (S) | Ice Spirit Royal Recruits Royal Giant Firecracker | Musketeer Valkyrie | Goblin Giant Goblin Barrel | Mega Knight |
Good (A) | Archers Bomber Skeletons Barbarians Bats | Dart Goblin Goblin Cage Wall Breakers | Hunter PEKKA | |
Fair (B) | Giant Snowball Zap Tesla Mortar | Battle Ram Wizard | Goblin Drill | |
Weak (C) |
Keep in mind that different strategies can change how effective a card feels, so use this as a general reference rather than a strict ranking.
Best Meta Card Evolutions in Clash Royale for Season 69
The most recent evolution was Hunter, which arrived in Season 69. Despite being seen as a powerful evolution, the ability doesn’t come in handy very often. For two cycles, I didn’t see a lot of value in it, but it is no slouch.
Some evolutions got nerfs and hence moved down the order. For example, you can PEKKA was easily a top-tier EVO card. Don’t get me wrong, she’s still a powerhouse, but she’s a little easier to handle now, and that bumped her down a tier.

Then there’s Firecracker Evolution, she was a nightmare to deal with, and honestly, she still is. But the problem? Players have figured out too many counters for her. With all that, she still finds herself at the top of the list.
That’s all for this Season’s Clash Royale Card Evolution tier list! Do keep an eye on this page every season, as the list will be updated as new cards and balance changes arrive.
