Your defensive structure acts as the anchor of your entire strategy, dictating exactly what types of enemy pushes you can comfortably survive.

This comprehensive guide explores the specific use-cases, strengths, and weaknesses of both categories of defensive architecture.
High DPS Defenses
The Inferno Tower is the ultimate example, possessing a damage beam that ramps up exponentially the longer it stays locked on a single target.

These buildings are absolutely mandatory if the current competitive meta is heavily dominated by slow, expensive 'beatdown' decks.
Ensure the tower locks onto the tank.Place the building in the center to pull the tank across both lanes.A well-timed zap resets the Inferno Tower's damage ramp-up. The Splash Damage Swarm Sweepers
These structures are your absolute best defense against 'bait' decks that rely on overwhelming you with endless waves of goblins and skeletons.

Therefore, if you choose a splash damage building, you must ensure you have a high-DPS troop (like a Mini P.E.K.K.A) in your deck to handle the heavy lifting.
