When constructing a perfectly balanced deck, choosing the correct defensive building is one of the most consequential decisions you will make.

If you bring a single-target tower to a match against a swarm-heavy bait deck, you will be utterly annihilated.
The Single-Target Tank Killers
Single-target defenses, such as the Inferno Tower or the Cannon, are designed specifically to deal with massive, high-hitpoint threats.

A single-target tower will waste its massive damage output slowly killing one skeleton at a time, allowing the main enemy tank to slip by completely unharmed.
