Hey everyone, it's yarn from Orange Juice

Today we'll be talking about pulling units

It's one of the most effective ways to defend your towers

To pull troops, you first need to understand how aggro works

When you plant your troop near their unit, you'll notice there's an exclamation mark that pops up

That means the enemy units will draw towards your troop

On the topic of aggro, if a Mortar or Xbow is aggro'd on your tower

You can actually reset its target with a zap

It's important to have a general understanding of troop movespeed

If your melee units are significantly faster than theirs, it won't pull

When defending with a pull, you want to spend less elixir than their troop is worth

You should only spend more elixir if you're going to counter attack

When doing a chain pull, your initial units should cost 3 or less elixir

My favourite troops to use for the initial pull are: Skeleton

Melee goblins

Archers

And spear goblins

Troops you want to pull are: Knight

Mini P.E.K.K.A

P.E.K.K.A

Giant Skeleton

Prince

Dark Prince

Barbarians

Minions

And skeleton army

You can also pull: golems

Giants

Hogs

And Balloons

Some troops just aren't worth pulling

There are 3 different types of pulls

The standard pull

Chain pull

and Kiting

A regular pull increases the distance the enemy unit needs to travel to reach your tower

In this situation, separating the skeletons with a pull is absolutely necessary

It can change the entire outcome of the situation

Pulling can also come in handy to lock in a win

A chain pull can accomplish 3 things

1. It can pull the troop within shooting range of both towers

2. It can pull the enemy units into the next lane

and 3. It can divide the army between both towers

Kiting is the act of grabbing a troops attention and running away from it

It's an aggressive defense that quickly turns into a counter attack

With these techniques, you can get their unit to do a full U-turn

Pulling is a cost effective way to defend since it can utilize both towers

It only cost 6 elixir to shut down that 10 elixir army
