Perhaps you made a predictive play that failed spectacularly, or the opponent rushed you with a perfectly countered starting hand.

Quitting the match early or giving up mentally is the only guaranteed way to ensure a loss.
Stabilizing the Board
Your opponent now has a massive elixir advantage, and a desperate attack will be easily crushed, widening the gap further.

Use your towers' health as a resource, utilizing cheap distraction units to kill their expensive attackers slowly.
Use cheap cycle cards to fix your rotation.If they overcommit to finishing the weak tower, punish the opposite lane.A 1-0 loss is better than a 3-0 loss if you are playing in a clan war. Patience Pays Off
You now have surviving defensive troops marching toward the bridge, and a full bar of energy ready to support them.

Drop your primary win condition directly in front of those surviving troops to create an instant, terrifying threat.
