Deck tools — which one do I use?

TrophyCoach has five Clash Royale deck tools, and picking the right one depends on one question: do you already have a deck, or do you want one built for you?

I want a deck built for me — Deck Finder (free)

The Deck Finder at /tools/deck-finder is the build-me-a-deck tool. Enter your player tag (or sign in with a linked tag) and it ranks the current top meta decks by the cards you actually own — each deck gets a composite score from live meta strength (rank, pick rate, win rate from the tracked-decks pipeline), your collection completion, and play-style fit. Decks where you own at least 7 of the 8 cards are marked "playable today." You can filter by archetype (cycle, beatdown, control, siege, bait, bridge spam, and more) and by win condition.

Filters: the Deck Finder filters by archetype (cycle, beatdown, control, siege, bait, bridge spam, …), by win condition, and by max average elixir (≤ 2.8, 3.0, 3.3, 3.6, or 4.0), and can hide decks you can't play yet (fewer than 7 of 8 cards owned). Every ranked deck shows its average elixir. There is no elixir sort — decks stay in meta-rank order within the filter.

Asking in chat: the support chat can answer "build me 10 decks under 3 elixir" directly — it lists the highest-ranked tracked decks at your trophy range that fit the cap, each with a Deck Doctor link, and links the Deck Finder with the same cap applied.

The Deck Finder supports a tag link parameter (/tools/deck-finder?tag=%23YOURTAG), so a link that already includes a player tag loads their decks immediately, and a maxElixir parameter (/tools/deck-finder?maxElixir=3) that pre-applies the elixir cap.

This is the right answer for "make me a deck," "build me a deck with my cards," "what's the best deck for me," and for players who don't know how to build a deck and don't want to fix their current one.

I have a deck and want it improved — Deck Doctor (free)

The Deck Doctor at /tools/deck-doctor analyzes a deck you enter: it grades the deck, finds weaknesses (bad elixir curve, no swarm answer, weak air defense), and suggests specific card swaps. It supports a deck link parameter with comma-separated card names (/tools/deck-doctor?deck=Hog%20Rider,Musketeer,...), so a link can arrive with the deck already filled in.

Hero and Evolution cards: every card in your deck — auto-loaded from your linked account or picked by hand — shows a Hero and/or Evo button underneath it, only where that card has such a form in the game (16 Heroes and 44 Evolutions as of September 2026). The game's slots are one Evolution, one Hero, and one Wild slot that takes either, so a deck holds at most 2 Evolutions, at most 2 Heroes, and 3 forms in total. The game never reports which forms you run, so mark them yourself; the analysis and the deck chat then grade the form you picked, not the base card.

Important: the Deck Doctor does not generate a deck from scratch. It needs a deck as input. Someone with no deck should start at the Deck Finder instead.

After an analysis, signed-in users can tap "Ask about this deck" to chat with a deck coach grounded in live meta stats. That chat is where specific questions get real answers: "Cannon or Tesla in this deck?", "how do I beat Golem with this?", "what should I upgrade first?"

I want to rate an idea — Deck Builder (free)

The Deck Builder at /tools/deck-builder lets you pick any 8 cards and rates the deck out of 100 on synergy, meta fit, structure, elixir curve, and card levels, backed by millions of real ladder battles. Use it to sanity-check a deck idea before you invest upgrades, then hand the deck to the Deck Doctor for AI swap suggestions.

I need war decks — Clan War Deck Planner (free)

The Clan War Deck Planner at /tools/war-planner builds 4 non-overlapping Clan War decks with automatic card-conflict detection, spell-balance validation, and win-condition checks. This is the answer to "war deck builder" questions.

I want the full workspace — Deck Lab (Pro)

The Deck Lab at /app/decks is the Pro deck workspace: save decks, find counters to specific decks ("Counter This"), browse suggested decks with your collection, plan upgrade paths, and prepare war day — all in one place. It requires a Pro subscription; free users who open it are redirected to the Deck Doctor.

Which deck tool should I use?

Do the deck tools work in other languages?

The tools themselves are in English, but the support assistant and the Deck Doctor chat will answer questions in your language — ask in Spanish, French, Turkish, or any language you're comfortable in.
