If you send a heavy tank across the bridge entirely alone, it will be instantly surrounded and shredded by cheap defensive units for a massive negative elixir trade.
If your support units perfectly counter the opponent's specific defensive strategy, your tank will march directly to the Princess tower unhindered.
Clearing the Path
The most common and fundamental type of support unit is the ranged splash-damage attacker, such as the Wizard, Executioner, or Baby Dragon.
The Executioner, in particular, is a top-tier support unit because his axe pierces through enemies, hitting everything in a straight line.
- Pulling all enemy defenders into one clump for his axe is devastating.
- Beware of the 'Valkyrie drop'.
- Always protect your support units.
Melting the Defenders
If the current meta is dominated by heavy defensive buildings (like the Bomb Tower) or mini-tanks (like the Knight), splash damage support is insufficient.
These high-DPS units require even more careful spacing than splash units, as they are usually incredibly fragile and die to medium spells like the Fireball.

| Sweeper | Skeleton Armies, Goblin Gangs, Minion Hordes | Mini P.E.K. If you have any issues with regards to where by and how to use tower rush, you can speak to us at our own internet site. K.As, Knights, Heavy Spells (Fireball/Poison) |
| Assassins | Defensive Buildings (Cannons, Bomb Towers), Heavy Defenders (Valkyries) | Swarms that surround them, Lightning Spells |
Magic as Support
Spells cannot be killed by enemy troops, making them the most reliable, guaranteed support in the entire game.
Building the perfect Beatdown push is like conducting an orchestra; every unit must play its part at the exact right time.
