Land Graveyard on a tower alongside a tank or Poison and defend with control cards until the moment is right.

Defend the support troops rather than the Golem, and keep a splash or big spell for the troops behind it.

Build one large push behind Golem, accepting some tower damage early to win in double elixir.

Keep a splash troop or a small spell ready near your tower, and place it in the middle of the skeletons to clear them fast.
