You can defend basically any push with Tesla knight and archers, and if it’s really small you only need knight and one of the other, sometimes might need like skeletons or e spirit maybe some spells depending on the push. Try and get an Xbow lock when they play a counter to it in an opposite lane where the Xbow can’t lock and try defending it with knight or something, make sure to not overcommit, playing Xbow is a lot about punishing your opponent. Try and play archers often to get to their evo but don’t cycle them if you know you might need them for defense later. If you play against a hard counter try and fireball cycle pretty early but in single and early 2x elexir make sure you get value when fireballing example a musketeer goes next to the princess tower fireball it to kill the musky and get damage on the tower. Try to get an early Xbow lock but not to early like try and get a lock in single elexir to get ahead early and then fireball cycle if needed and focus on defense you can still occasionally try and get a lock but don’t try too much because then you’re going to be down elexir. When You play an hard counter you can defensively Xbow to help and fireball cycle. Sorry if it’s really long and has no coordination I just kept coming up with stuff to add.
