Players who treat the game purely as a test of reflexes will inevitably hit a skill ceiling they cannot break without learning the underlying mathematics.
Every time you place a card, you are making a financial transaction, betting your current energy against the opponent's available energy.
The Cost of Inaction
The only way one player can mathematically gain an advantage is if the other player 'leaks' elixir by sitting at the maximum cap of 10.
If your opponent plays a card immediately at 10, they are now mathematically ahead of you by one point.
Never sit at 10 elixir unless you are waiting for a very specific enemy push to cross the river.You must increase your Actions Per Minute (APM) significantly to keep up.You are essentially fighting a 10v7 battle.
The Profit Margin
If the opponent drops a Minion Horde (5 elixir) and you destroy it instantly with Arrows (3 elixir), you have gained a pure profit of +2.
The game is won by the player who accumulates the highest total 'profit' over the three-minute duration.
