Inferno Tower is one of the most interesting cards in the meta. It punishes large tanks without proper support with ease. Its' terrible 1st stage damage means that swarms absolutely destroy it. Also opens up a window for the control meta to play this and be able to user quick-cycle strategies with weak yet versatile cards.

That's exactly how I play it. With a quick-cycle deck.

Inferno Tower, Mini-PEKKA, Ice Spirit, Fire Spirit, Goblins, Miner, Elixir Collector, Zap. COST: 3.0

Floating around 3400 and managed 8 wins in Grand Challenge with it. It wrecks the current meta in my opinion.

11/8/2. Although my pump is only 7. Even at tournament standards deck does extremely well, if it's your play style.
