About this converter
Clash Royale cards cost fixed elixir from 1 to 8. Skeletons open at 1, Zap and The Log tied at 2, Knight, Archers and Cannon tied at 3, Musketeer, Hog Rider and Fireball tied at 4, Giant, Witch and Balloon tied at 5, X-Bow and Rocket tied at 6, P.E.K.K.A at 7 and Golem at 8. That makes one Golem equal eight Skeletons of elixir. Every value here is the printed cost with Mirror math left out.
How to use it
Pick two cards and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. One box holds a count of the first, one holds the matching count of the second, one holds the total in elixir. Try 1 Golem against Skeletons.
Mirror costs 1 over whatever it copies, so this table pins printed costs to keep rows comparable. Double elixir time doubles income, not these numbers. Champions cost extra elixir to deploy and cycle back on cooldown, so they stay out of this classic ladder. Evolutions cost the same elixir with cycling noted. Clash of Clans gold for the sister game runs on the companion gold page.
