I always prefer air&ground, wonderful. That difference between 11/14 doesn't matter!
IMHO, there is no "best" setting.
Many factors to consider like, AD lvl, base layout, trophy lvl (getting hit by balloonians; miniball; whatever u want to call it), what else is currently being upgraded, current resources, etc...
I personally have my lvl3's on ground. I have lvl6 AD atm. But depending on the many variables mentioned, I may set one to air from time to time.
To me it's a big difference with a compact base design like a "transformer" type. It gives you crucial time to weaken lvl6 giants on their way in.Quote:

Unlike Inferno Towers where the choice is obvious, both has benefits.
IMO, it comes down to how centralized your air defenses are. If both are close to core, flatten the x bow.
If air defenses are exposed, point the x bows up to help compensate.
Ground and air, or I'll be paying a visit to your town with my minoon's :)
Typically I put mine on ground only if farming (majority of the time) and then switch them to air and ground while pushing. I say if the attacker's determined enough to use dragons and such, let 'em have some of the loot!
I prefer ground + air. They do a pretty good job of fending off minions and balloons.
My preference will be Air+Ground, the range of 3 did not make a difference since flying troops will be easily approaching the 11-range as well as most troop that attempt to penetrate the middle like Giants and Heroes. And well-placed Xbows can very effectively wreck Balloon and Minion strategies.
