If you ask any professional player what the single most important skill in an arena battler is, they will all give you the exact same answer.

Playing the game without knowing how much elixir your opponent has is like playing poker without looking at the cards on the table.
The Economy of Aggression
If you launch a massive 8-elixir push while the opponent is sitting at 10 elixir, they will easily defend it using perfect counters, often resulting in a negative trade for you.

This situation—having significantly more energy than the opponent—is known as an 'Elixir Advantage', and creating it is the primary goal of the game.
You are literally gambling with your trophies.If you are up by 4, launch your win condition immediately.Do not attack; just use cheap cards to stall their pushes until the generation rate equalizes the board. Practicing the Count
Start by simply categorizing the opponent into three states: 'High Elixir' (7-10), 'Medium Elixir' (4-6), and 'Low Elixir' (0-3).

As you get comfortable with this broad tracking, start actually doing the math: "They started at 10, played a Golem (8), so they are at 2, plus two seconds of generation, they are at 3."

Tower health is a deceptive metric; you can have full tower health and still be losing the game if you are down 5 elixir.

When you perfectly predict an opponent's inability to defend your push based purely on your mental calculation, you will feel invincible.
