Start a Golem push behind your King Tower, then add support troops as the tank advances. If your opponent pressures the opposite lane, defend first and consider turning surviving defenders into a counter-push instead of committing more elixir immediately.
Build the push
- Deploy the Golem behind your King Tower to give yourself time to add support.
- Add a support troop, such as the Night Witch or Electro Dragon, behind the Golem.
- Avoid stacking more troops if the opponent is pressuring the other lane or your push is being stalled. Defend and wait for another opportunity rather than committing further.
The supplied draft also suggests keeping ranged support behind the Golem. Treat that as a placement option, not a guarantee that those troops will avoid splash damage.
Respond to defenses
The draft names Inferno Tower, Inferno Dragon, Cannon, and Tesla as possible obstacles. It suggests Electro Dragon against Inferno defenses and Lightning or Poison against buildings or groups of defenders. Those suggestions do not establish which spell is best for a particular matchup, so choose based on the defense you actually face and the rest of your deck.
If the opponent stops the push, do not keep adding troops just to force it through. Pull back, defend, and look for another opening.

This saved me time in the early game.
Can you add more details about strategy in a future update?
Good guide for Clash Royale players. The strategy part was useful.
I wish I had read this before upgrading the wrong thing.
