Path of Legends: Best Decks Per Arena

Path of Legends (formerly Ladder) requires different decks at different Arenas. Here's the best deck for each Arena bracket in the current season.

Best Decks by Arena

Arena Range	Best Deck	Key Card	Playstyle
1-5	Giant + Witch	Giant	Slow push
6-9	Hog 2.6	Hog Rider	Cycle
10-13	Mortar Bait	Mortar	Control
14-15	MK Miner Bait	Mega Knight	Counter-push
16+ (Ult Champ)	Pekka Bridge Spam	Pekka	Bridge pressure

Arena 10-13: Mortar Bait Deep Dive

Cards: Mortar, Bats, Goblin Gang, Skeleton Barrel, Miner, Log, Rocket, Knight

• Defense: Knight + Goblin Gang shut down most ground pushes. Bats for tanks.
• Offense: Place Mortar at the bridge. If they defend, Bats or Skeleton Barrel on the opposite lane.
• Spell defense: Log their barrel/gang. Rocket their pushes if stacked.

Mortar Placement Guide
- Starting hand? Drop Mortar at bridge immediately
- Against Hog: Mortar pull + Knight on Hog = positive trade
- Against Giant: Bats + Mortar on defense, then counter-push
- Against X-Bow: Rocket their X-Bow, out-cycle them

SEA meta note: In Arena 14+, Mega Knight is EVERYWHERE. Every 3rd game is MK. If your deck struggles against MK, add Inferno Tower or Pekka. The counter-push meta in SEA favors heavy elixir decks -- playing a cycle deck well here requires near-perfect reaction times to punish their slow plays.
