If Cycle decks are a surgeon's scalpel and Siege decks are a sniper rifle, the 'Beatdown' archetype is a massive, blunt sledgehammer.
This guide will teach you the art of absorbing damage, building the deathball, and crushing the enemy under the weight of your push.
The Art of the Sacrifice
If you spend 4 elixir defending a 3-elixir Goblin Barrel, you will never accumulate the massive reserves needed to deploy your 8-elixir Golem.
If a lone enemy Knight is walking toward your tower, you simply ignore it, absorbing 500 damage but keeping your elixir bar full.
- Your goal in the first two minutes is simply to survive without losing a tower completely.
- Don't stack your support units too closely behind the tank.
- If your first massive push fails to take the tower, do not force a second one immediately.
Building the Deathball
The true power of the push comes from the fragile, high-damage support units you layer behind the meat shield.
You must build a synergistic support squad that covers every possible defensive response the opponent might have.
| Beatdown Phase | Objective |
|---|---|
| Single Elixir (First 2 Minutes) | Play passively; use support units defensively behind your tower, then drop the tank in front of them for a 'free' counter-push |
| Double Elixir (Final Minute) | Drop the tank in the absolute back, ignore minor enemy attacks, and dump every drop of elixir into support units behind the tank |
The Psychological Weight of the Push
This often induces panic, causing them to make desperate, ill-advised attacks that you can easily crush.
Play Beatdown with absolute confidence and a willingness to take a punch.
