It is not perfect spell timing, it is not deep deck-building knowledge, and it is not lightning-fast reflexes.
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
If you launch a massive 8-elixir push while the opponent is sitting at 10 elixir, they will easily defend it using perfect counters, often resulting in a negative trade for you.
You create an advantage by making positive defensive trades (e. If you have any concerns concerning the place and how to use tower rush, you can contact us at our website. 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.
How to Train the Skill
You must train your brain to do it subconsciously, starting with simple approximations before moving to exact numbers.
Eventually, this process will become completely automatic; you will instinctively 'feel' their elixir bar without having to consciously calculate the numbers.
The Match StageElixir SpeedMental LoadSingle Elixir (First 2 Minutes)1 Elixir every 2.8 secondsEasy to Moderate; plenty of time to calculate trades and track generation in your headDouble Elixir (Final Minute)1 Elixir every 1.4 secondsExtremely Difficult; the math changes so fast you must rely on instinct and 'feel' rather than raw numbers
The Invisible Scoreboard
The elixir bar is the true, invisible scoreboard that dictates who is actually in control of the match.
When you perfectly predict an opponent's inability to defend your push based purely on your mental calculation, you will feel invincible.
