When constructing a perfectly balanced deck, choosing the correct defensive building is one of the most consequential decisions you will make.

If you bring a single-target tower to a match against a swarm-heavy bait deck, you will be utterly annihilated.
The Single-Target Tank Killers
The Inferno Tower is the ultimate example, possessing a damage beam that ramps up exponentially the longer it stays locked on a single target.

However, their massive, glaring weakness is their extreme vulnerability to cheap, multi-unit swarm cards.

Conversely, splash damage buildings, such as the Bomb Tower, are designed to obliterate massive groups of low-hitpoint enemies instantly.

Therefore, if you choose a splash damage building, you must ensure you have a high-DPS troop (like a Mini P.E. Here's more regarding tower rush look into our web site. K.K.A) in your deck to handle the heavy lifting.

Ultimately, the building you select must perfectly complement the other seven cards in your deck.

A strong foundation guarantees a triumphant victory.
