However, there is one spell that completely breaks the established rules of the game, manipulating the physical positioning of enemy troops rather than just their hitpoints: the Tornado.
In the hands of a Grandmaster, it is an absolute game-breaker, capable of completely neutralizing massive pushes and activating unparalleled defensive power.
The Early Activation
At the start of a match, your massive central King Tower is 'asleep'; its cannons are hidden, and it provides absolutely zero defensive support.
The unit will hit the King once, waking him up for the rest of the entire match.
- Every single time they play a Miner, pull it to the King Tower for a free activation.
- A 3-elixir Tornado pull is often a massive positive trade.
- Once the King is active, you can pull enemy units to the absolute center of the map, allowing all THREE of your towers to shoot them simultaneously.
The 'Nado' Combo
Beyond the King activation, the Tornado's secondary function is physically grouping enemy units together into a tight, dense clump.
If the opponent builds a massive, spread-out push consisting of a Giant, a Musketeer, and a swarm of Minions, they are attempting to avoid splash damage through proper spacing.
| Pro Strategy | Execution |
|---|---|
| The Anti-Death Damage Pull | Tornado a dying Giant Skeleton or Balloon away from your tower at the last second so their massive death bomb explodes harmlessly in the river |
| The Retarget Pull | Tornado an enemy Royal Giant backward so it loses its target on your weak tower and locks onto the healthy defensive building you just placed |
A Grandmaster's Tool
A bad Tornado will actively lose you the game by pulling a massive P. If you have any sort of concerns pertaining to where and ways to utilize tower rush, you can contact us at our page. E.K.K.A directly onto your vulnerable tower.
