The elixir bar is not just a timer; it is the currency that dictates every single interaction on the battlefield.
Every time you place a card, you are making a financial transaction, betting your current energy against the opponent's available energy.
The Cost of Inaction
The only way one player can mathematically gain an advantage is if the other player 'leaks' elixir by sitting at the maximum cap of 10.
This is why top players are constantly 'cycling' cheap cards in the back of the arena; they are ensuring the generation timer never stops ticking.
Never sit at 10 elixir unless you are waiting for a very specific enemy push to cross the river.Play faster.Punish them.
Winning the Economic War
