Deck · 4 towers for 8 spots

Tower	Code	Spots	Role	Why
Gema Llameante	GL	×3	Main damage	Main damage against high-health physical-armor units. Poder Inestable explosions clear the knights.
Mago Arcano	MA	×2	Boss killer	Boss killer. Rayo de la Muerte works on both Gigante and Fortaleza Voladora. Layouts with two exits get one on each side.
Tesla x104	TS	×2	Early	Chain damage that hits ground and air: crows, bats, Jinete Cohete and the rival's Llamado del Dragón. Physical, so it also covers Mago Eldritch, Cuervo Oscuro and Arquero Sombrío, which have magic armor.
Mecha de Batalla	ME	×1	Support	Stops tower stuns from Fortaleza Voladora's tar and Caballería Oscura's charge, and probably the rival's Piedra Fundida. Put it in the most central spot.

Boss killers go next to the exit. Main damage goes where the path passes on several sides. Support goes in the most central spot. Early towers go near the gates.

Build & upgrade order

1. Stages 1–2: build Gema Llameante at NIV1 on the best Main-damage spot. Then build Tesla on an Early spot for Arquero Sombrío and Cuervo Oscuro.
2. Stage 2–3: build Mecha de Batalla on the Support spot early. Caballería Oscura's charge, Fortaleza's tar and the rival's Piedra Fundida all disable towers. Gema #2, then Gema #1 to NIV3 with Llamado Eldritch.
3. Stage 3–4: build Gema #3, Tesla #2 and the first Mago Arcano at the exit. On two-exit layouts, put it on the exit with more path leading to it.
4. Stage 4–5: build Mago Arcano #2 and take both to NIV3 with Rayo de la Muerte. Teslas to NIV3 with Sobrecarga for flying packs, Mecha to NIV3 with Misil Avispa.
5. Stage 6: Aturdo Relampago stuns the boss and its escort. Then Golpe Definitivo and Rayo de la Muerte. Hit Gigante before it reaches your last spots, because it summons Golem Heads ahead of itself.

Level-3 upgrades to buy

Tower	Buy first	Then	Why
Gema Llameante	Llamado Eldritch (180)	Gema de Multiplicación (210)	Eldritch blocks the path and does true damage. Multiplicación splits the beam across 2 targets, which is worse against a lone boss and better against swarms. In Arena 15, buy Multiplicación first.
Mago Arcano	Rayo de la Muerte (168)	Teletransporte (190)	Rayo de la Muerte is the boss killer (5,506–6,730). Teletransporte sends 4 enemies back 1.7 tiles.
Tesla x104	Rayo (130)	Sobrecarga (160)	Rayo stuns 1 target for 4.5 s and is the cheapest. Sobrecarga has a 50% chance to hit everything around the tower. In Arena 15, buy Sobrecarga first for the wasps.
Mecha de Batalla	Misil Avispa (205)	Descarte de Residuos (160)	Misil Avispa does 1,649–1,915 true area damage. Descarte slows by 40%. The anti-stun aura is automatic.

Spells

Golpe Definitivo

Save it for Gigante, before it summons Golem Heads near your exit, or for Fortaleza Voladora.

Ráfaga Solar

Sweep it down the knight lines. Caballería Oscura leaves a knight when it dies, so a long beam catches the second wave too.

Aturdo Relampago

Stun a Caballería Oscura charge or a Fragmento de Magma group for 4.6 s, right in front of your Gema towers. Cooldown is 19 s.

Hero

Eiskalt

Tormenta Glacial freezes every enemy in place for 4.3 s, and Vista Mágica gives your magic towers +5% range. Both fit this magic deck. He flies.

Where to keep him and when to move: Keep him where the paths split in the middle. Use Aliento de Escarcha (−80% speed) on Caballería Oscura before its charge reaches your towers, and Avalancha down the longest straight road. Save Tormenta Glacial for stage 6: freeze Gigante before it reaches your last spots and summons Golem Heads, or freeze Fortaleza Voladora so your 3 Mago Arcano can fire freely.

Boosters

Once per stage you pick 1 of 3 boosters. Commit to 1–2 of them so they level up. All boosters of this arena

Good picks

Torre Poderosa

Helps you

More damage for all your towers. The safest pick if your defense needs help.

Mercader de la Muerte

Helps you

More gold per kill: faster upgrades, best picked early.

Maestro de Hechizos

Helps you

Shorter spell cooldowns: more Golpe Definitivo and Ráfaga Solar.

Piedra Fundida

Rival's towers

Buries your rival's towers in rock for a few seconds. The strongest pressure pick here.

Invocación Espectral

Helps you

Enemies you kill may come back as ghosts on your rival's side: free pressure from your own defense.

Llamado del Dragón

Units → rival

Flying dragon with magic armor and high ranged damage.

What your rival can send you: Your rival can bury your towers with Piedra Fundida: keep Mecha in the center. Llamado del Dragón, Murciélago Chillón and Llamador de Cuervos' crows fly: Tesla and Gema handle them.
