What Do Royal Recruits Do?
Royal Recruits deploys 6 ground-only melee units, each wearing a shield that absorbs the first hit it takes, spread across the entire width of the arena rather than clustered together like most swarm cards.
That full-width spread creates a defensive wall spanning nearly the whole lane, making it difficult for a single melee win condition to bypass without engaging several Recruits at once.
Where Royal Recruits Fit
They're a strong defensive answer to single-target win conditions, since the shields and wide spread force an attacker to fight through multiple durable units rather than one clean path.
How to Counter Royal Recruits
Splash damage that lands multiple hits, or spells strong enough to break through a shield and still deal lethal damage, can clear the group more efficiently than single-target troops trading one at a time.
