Elixir Golem
Elixir Golem overview
Card stats
Description
Splits into two Elixir Golemites when destroyed, which split into two sentient Blobs when defeated. Each part of the Elixir Golem gives your opponent some Elixir when destroyed!
Elixir Golem battle strategy
At 3 elixir, Elixir Golem plays as a Rare troop that targets buildings. Released in 2019, it remains a reliable option for balancing offense and defense.
Opening plays and tempo
Lead with Elixir Golem when you can float 3 elixir. It lets you test your opponent's responses without committing a full push.
Support combinations
Pair Elixir Golem with spells or support troops that amplify a troop's pressure. Knockback, rage, or splash damage keep it on the board longer.
Defensive flip
Hold Elixir Golem for buildings pushes when you need a fast trade. Survive the defense, then stack it behind surviving units for a counterattack.
Synergies and deck ideas
Cheap cycle cards help you get back to Elixir Golem whenever you need its toolkit in rotation.
Mix Elixir Golem with win conditions that benefit from its support or let it pressure the opposite lane as a secondary win condition.
Playing around counters
Identify hard counters early
Watch for buildings, splash damage, or swarms that shut Elixir Golem down. Force those answers out with spells or opposite-lane pressure.
Spell safety
Avoid stacking Elixir Golem near your tower. High-damage spells punish clumped units, so stagger deployments to reduce risk.
Upgrade priorities
Track the damage and hit point breakpoints that matter at your ladder tier. Leveling Elixir Golem so it survives common counter damage keeps it relevant.
