What Does Inferno Tower Do?
Inferno Tower is a defensive building that only targets ground troops, but its damage output ramps up dramatically the longer it stays locked onto the same target without interruption. Early hits are weak, but the damage escalates sharply the longer the engagement lasts.
That ramp resets entirely if it switches targets or loses focus, meaning its effectiveness depends on the attacker being unable to break its lock before it reaches full power.
Where Inferno Tower Fits
It's a premier answer to heavy tank win conditions like Giant or Golem, since its ramping damage is high enough over time to threaten even very high-HP troops if left unanswered.
How to Counter Inferno Tower
Introducing a second troop for it to switch its focus to, or removing it before it locks on for long, prevents it from ever reaching its most dangerous damage tier.
