❓ Golem FAQ

What is the best Golem deck?

The classic Golem Night Witch deck with Baby Dragon, Lightning, Mega Minion, Barbarian Barrel, Tornado, and Elixir Collector is the most popular.

When should I play Golem?

Play Golem in the back when you have 10 elixir and your opponent doesn't have a strong opposite lane threat. Double elixir time is ideal.

How do I counter Inferno Tower with Golem?

Use Lightning to destroy Inferno Tower, or use Tornado to pull the Golem away from the Inferno Tower's range while it resets.
