julioWhy Anti-Air is Crucial in Tower Rush
When players first begin their journey in an arena battler, they almost exclusively focus on the ground war.
Flying units operate under a completely different set of physical rules than ground units.
Why the Skies Matter
The Balloon will simply float over your defending ground troops, drop a single bomb, and instantly delete a massive chunk of your tower's health.
Furthermore, aerial swarms (like the Minion Horde or Bats) can completely shred an unsupported ground tank in seconds.
- Never build a deck with only one anti-air card.
- Flying anti-air units (like Mega Minion) are safer because they avoid ground melee.
- If you place a Wizard and a Musketeer right next to each other, a single Poison spell will kill both, leaving the skies wide open.
Building the Anti-Air Package
The 'Air Assassin' role (Mega Minion, Phoenix, Minions) involves playing flying melee units that fly out to directly intercept the enemy threat in the sky.
If you are playing a heavy Beatdown deck, you must also include 'Splash Anti-Air' (Baby Dragon, Electro Dragon, Executioner).
| The Attacker | How to Defend It |
|---|---|
| The Lava Hound (Massive flying tank) | Ignore it initially; focus all anti-air on the support troops behind it, then clear the 'pups' when it pops |
| The Inferno Dragon (Escalating beam damage) | Use an Electro Wizard or Zap spell to constantly stun it and reset its damage beam to zero |
Respecting the Z-Axis
You must respect the skies and build your defenses with complete vertical coverage in mind.
Control the ground, but dominate the air.
