How Electro Dragon Chain Lightning Works
- First hit: full damage to the selected building.
- Chain: up to four additional nearby targets, with each jump dealing 20% less than the previous hit.
- Targets: ground and air; buildings must be close enough for the chain to continue.
- Entry: begin where the first strike can reach a useful line of defenses or storages.
- Release: Electro Dragon was added to Clash of Clans in June 2018.

Chain-Lightning Placement Check
- Look for a first target with several buildings inside chain range.
- Do not rely on a chain through wide gaps or destroyed buildings.
- Use Rage where the Electro Dragons will attack, not while they cross empty space.
Practical rule: set the intended entry so the initial strike starts near buildings that offer a useful chain path.
Electro Dragon Attack Strategy
- Funnel first: remove side buildings so the air group enters together.
- Choose chain value: attack where defenses and storages sit close together.
- Control Sweepers: change the entry angle or Freeze the dangerous crossing.
- Protect the core: use Grand Warden support where several Electro Dragons overlap.
- Start cleanup early: the slow attack speed makes time management important.
Fix Common Electro Dragon Attack Problems
- Army splits: tighten the funnel and reduce side targets.
- Chains stop early: choose a denser entry or remove the gap first.
- Sweeper stalls the push: change the angle or reserve Freeze.
- Core survives: move Rage and Warden protection to the exposed crossing.
- Time fails: deploy safe cleanup sooner.
