Defeating Golem Decks In Tower Rush

For many casual players, seeing the opponent casually drop a massive, 8-elixir Golem in the absolute back of the arena induces a feeling of sheer, paralyzing dread.


However, the strategy has massive, glaring weaknesses in its early stages that can be brutally exploited.

Striking When They Are Weak

This is your window of opportunity, and you must exploit it with absolute, ruthless aggression.


If they spend elixir defending your opposite-lane rush, they will have absolutely no elixir left to put support troops (like a Night Witch or Baby Dragon) behind their Golem, rendering the massive tank completely harmless and easy to kill.

Your attacking troops will simply lock onto the massive Golem, completely wasting their damage.Do not over-commit on your punish.If you do not have a fast punish card in your hand when they drop the Golem, you are in trouble.
Dismantling the Deathball

If you fail to punish the Golem drop, or the game is in Double Elixir, you will eventually have to defend a fully supported push at your bridge.


Once the support troops cross the river, you instantly drop a 'mini-tank' (like a Valkyrie or Knight) directly on top of them, completely ignoring the Golem.

Match PhaseHow to PlaySingle Elixir (First 2 Minutes)Aggressively punish every single time they play an expensive card; you must secure a massive damage lead earlyDouble Elixir (Final Minute)Play hyper-defensively; use buildings to pull the Golem to the center and focus all your spells on killing their support troops
Breaking the Behemoth

If you panic and try to fight the Golem head-on, you will be crushed under its weight.


The bigger they are, the harder they fall.
