Skin Classic
Obtained From Christmas 2025 Skincrate

Strategy

  • The Elf is great for weak enemies that spawn initially during the round, like the Normal, Abnormal, Speedy or Quick.
    • When the Slow or Heavy enemies spawn, you should have a more solid defense than just Elves. However, multiple Elves can be used to defeat these enemies.
    • When the Normal Boss or Elite Abnormal appears, you should be upgrading your Elf Camp to spawn stronger units.
  • On two-pathed maps, only one Elf will spawn per Level 0-2 Elf Camp. It will go down a random path.
  • The Elf can be somewhat useful against Hidden enemies if your other towers do not have hidden detection.
    • The Elf cannot collide with Ghost enemies like Souls.
  • The Elf can deal full collision damage to enemies with defense, like the Heavy or Elite Abnormal.
  • The Elf will struggle against any enemy with abilities that damage units because of its low health.
    • For example, if the Fallen King uses its The Foil, the Épée and the Sabre attack, and an Elf is caught in the attack, it is instantly defeated.


Trivia

  • The Classic skin is based on the Basic Elf enemy from Cold Ambush.
  • While the Elf has a range of 1.5, it cannot deal any form of damage, aside from collision damage.
    • The Elf has the lowest range in the game.
