Arrows are a cheap and cheerful means of destroying a horde of weaker units like Minions, Goblins, and Skeletons. Here's how to use it effectively and gain a hefty Elixir advantage. Be patient with mobs

The most common use of Arrows is to use them on mobs like Minions or Skeleton Army, and everyone knows it - even your opponent.

We'd recommend holding off from using your Arrows as soon as your opponent drops down a mob like Minion Horde to see if he fires off a few more cheap units just after. That way you can pick up a serious Elixir advantage.

Goblin Barrel

Arrows are the most effective method of dealing with the Goblin Barrel. The trick to using it is, as soon as you see the Goblin Barrel flying towards one of your towers, fire off an arrows to land on that tower. It will activate as soon as the Goblins pop out of the barrels and decimate them.

You'll also have a one point Elixir advantage.
