What it looks like

The Night Witch is a Legendary card that is unlocked from the Serenity Peak (Arena 14). It spawns a single-target, ground-targeting, melee, ground troop with moderate hitpoints and high damage. Every 5 seconds, the Night Witch will passively summon a group of two Bats surrounding her. However, her first wave of Bats will spawn 1 second after she is deployed. When defeated, she will also spawn a single Bat. She appears similar to the Witch, but has glowing blue eyes, wears a black cloak, top and gloves with silver armlets, a silver belt with an axe-shaped buckle and a glowing blue crystal in the center, and wields a long, darker axe-shaped staff with a glowing blue crystal on the top, which appears similar to her belt. A Night Witch card costs 4 Elixir to deploy.

Trivia

  • The Bats that the Night Witch spawns resemble the in-life bat species called "Desmodus rotundus" (common vampire bat). The common vampire bat is a hematophagous bat species that primarily feeds on the blood of livestock, which is done by biting their prey while they are sleeping. In Clash Royale, Bats attack in a similar way by biting their enemies.
  • The Night Witch is 1 of 17 troops that inspired a troop in Clash of Clans, the others being Spear Goblins, Bomber, Bats, Skeleton Barrel, Minion Horde, Firecracker, Battle Ram, Ice Golem, Zappies, Baby Dragon, Giant Skeleton, Ram Rider, Inferno Dragon, Miner, Royal Ghost, and Ice Wizard. The Night Witch is confirmed to be Witch's sister, according to the Night Witch Karaoke Contest video and her description in Clash of Clans. An opposing Star Level 2 skin resembles the Level 13 Night Witch in Clash of Clans. The Night Witch in Clash of Clans is ranged and deals area damage, unlike in Clash Royale.
