Many players will simply throw their hands up, spam a 'Crying' emote, and stop playing cards entirely, allowing the opponent an easy, uncontested victory.
This article explores the psychology of the 'clutch', why giving up is the only guaranteed way to lose, and how to execute the ultimate underdog comeback.

The single greatest weapon you have when facing a massive health deficit in overtime is the opponent's own psychology.
This is your window: a perfectly executed counter-push can travel across the map and destroy their full-health tower in ten seconds while they helplessly watch their elixir bar refill.
If your tower is at 100 HP, play as if it is at 4000 HP.Silence the noise.If you know they need to Fireball your tower to win, place your Musketeer far away from the tower so they cannot hit both.
The Hail Mary Play
You are initiating a high-stakes base race, betting that your massive, unsupported offensive swarm can deal 3000 damage faster than their Rocket can fly across the screen.
Even if you lose the base race, executing a Hail Mary is vastly superior to sitting passively and waiting to be destroyed.
