If you ask any professional player what the single most important skill in an arena battler is, they will all give you the exact same answer.

Playing the game without knowing how much elixir your opponent has is like playing poker without looking at the cards on the table.
Knowing When to Strike
Every single aggressive action you take in the arena should be dictated primarily by the opponent's current bank of elixir.

Once you know you have a +3 or +4 advantage, you are no longer playing a fair game; you are executing a mathematically guaranteed victory.
If they have 4 elixir, your tower is safe from a 6-elixir Rocket for at least 6 seconds.If they are at zero, they cannot immediately punish your 6-elixir Elixir Collector investment.If you know they have zero elixir, you don't need to spend 4 elixir to defend a dying 1-elixir skeleton. Practicing the Count
You must train your brain to do it subconsciously, starting with simple approximations before moving to exact numbers.

As you get comfortable with this broad tracking, start actually doing the math: "They started at 10, played a Golem (8), so they are at 2, plus two seconds of generation, they are at 3."

Tower health is a deceptive metric; you can have full tower health and still be losing the game if you are down 5 elixir.

Knowledge is power.
