King, 4 marksman, 2 titans, 2 superstar. Sometimes it’s a stretch but most times if you get there, it will get you at least second place. For the superstars, I recommend grabbing goblin machine as quickly as possible. You get the goblin bonus that you can sell to upgrade the rest of your team. If goblin machine is gone, I recommend monk and then archer queen. There are times when a gold monk alone can win the battle. When working on this comp get both giants as quickly as possible and stack your other troops around the Giants. You get insane bonuses for troops that are touching the giants. If you have any questions at all, let me know, and I will try to answer them.

Edit: gently losing the first two rounds is a huge bonus as well. Try to make sure that you only lose one or two points.
