- Tesla Evolution arrived with the Season 57 ‘Electro Birthday’ March 2024 update in Clash Royale.
- With a strong defensive card in Tesla, we discuss three best decks for the 4-elixir defense card.
Card Evolution in Clash Royale has made battles more intense, and picking the right ones can be a real challenge. While troop evo cards are making the most noise, defensive Evolution cards, such as the Tesla, have been featured in the best Clash Royale decks currently.
Tesla has always been a solid card for shutting down enemy pushes, but with its evolution, it’s even stronger. If you’re wondering how to build the best deck around the Tesla Evolution, let’s dive into some great options you can try out.
Best Tesla Evolution decks to use in Clash Royale
As part of the Season 57 ‘Electro Birthday’ March 2024 update, Tesla Evolution arrived alongside the Zap Evo. The evolved Tesla releases an Electro Pulse as soon as you place the card, dealing high damage while stunning enemies in a 6-tile radius for half a second.
Since the Tesla Evolution requires two cycles to activate, it’s important to build a deck that supports its defensive power while ensuring a strong counter-push. Here are some of the best decks to use with the Tesla Evolution in Clash Royale.
1. Tesla, Skeletons, Fireball, X-Bow, Electro Spirit, Archers, Knight, The Log
Average Elixir Cost: 3.0
A classic deck still; you can easily guess it. Still impactful if you ask me. Your main goal is to set up an X-Bow while using Tesla and cheap troops like Skeletons and Archers to protect it. The Knight acts as a solid mini-tank, and with the right support, you can counter any deck.

Electro Spirit provides a quick cycle and stuns enemy swarms that could threaten your X-Bow. Fireball is crucial for handling buildings or clearing medium-health troops that counter your win condition. The Log is your safety net against Goblin Barrel and swarms.
You can pick the evolution between Skeletons, Archers, or Knight, I would suggest the first two. You can copy the deck here.
2. Tesla, Royal Recruits, Graveyard, Ice Golem, Zappies, Zap, Flying Machine, Poison
Average Elixir Cost: 4.0
Tesla and Royal Recruits are my evolution picks for this deck, which works pretty well all around. What these two cards do is help you play defensively, letting you stall enemy pushes while setting up counterattacks. That’s where Graveyard and Ice Golem come into play.

As you slowly start the push, the mini-tank and win condition act as a tank to let skeletons pile up. Poison is essential for clearing defensive counters to your Graveyard, while both Zappies and Flying Machine are defensive supports. It’s a heavy deck, but if you can play it carefully, copy the deck and test it out here.
3. Tesla, Musketeer, Guards, Freeze, The Log, Archer Queen, Hog Rider, Miner
Average Elixir Cost: 3.6
This deck revolves around the dual win conditions of Hog Rider and Miner, giving you multiple ways to chip down towers. The Tesla and Musketeer work together to provide a strong defensive backbone, so my 2nd evo pick would be the latter.

Guards are a reliable defensive unit that can help against tanks and distract them, with the defense of the Archer Queen making it work. Freeze is a game-changer when used with Hog Rider, especially when opponents overcommit on defense. You can copy the deck here.
