Tracking Elixir in Tower Rush


The absolute core fundamental skill that separates the elite from the casuals is the ability to perfectly track the opponent's elixir.

Playing the game without knowing how much elixir your opponent has is like playing poker without looking at the cards on the table.
The Elixir Advantage
Every single aggressive action you take in the arena should be dictated primarily by the opponent's current bank of elixir.

You create an advantage by making positive defensive trades (e. If you have any issues regarding where and how to use tower rush, you can contact us at our web-page. g., using a 3-elixir Arrows to kill a 5-elixir Minion Horde).
If they have 4 elixir, your tower is safe from a 6-elixir Rocket for at least 6 seconds.Counting elixir tells you if it's safe to place your pump.If you know they have zero elixir, you don't need to spend 4 elixir to defend a dying 1-elixir skeleton. Mental Arithmetic Under Pressure
Tracking a constantly shifting number in your head while managing complex micro-interactions on the screen is incredibly difficult for beginners.

Eventually, this process will become completely automatic; you will instinctively 'feel' their elixir bar without having to consciously calculate the numbers.
Elixir StateYour Required ActionYou have a massive Elixir Advantage (+4)Immediate, overwhelming aggression; punish their lack of resources before they can regenerateYou have a massive Elixir Deficit (-4)Immediate, flawless defense; sacrifice tower health if necessary to regain economic parity; do NOT attack The Invisible Scoreboard
Tower health is a deceptive metric; you can have full tower health and still be losing the game if you are down 5 elixir.

When you perfectly predict an opponent's inability to defend your push based purely on your mental calculation, you will feel invincible.
