The most important cause of William's victory in 1066 at The Battle of Hastings was his strategic planning and superior tactics. He effectively utilized cavalry, which gave his forces a decisive advantage over Harold Godwinson's infantry. Additionally, the element of surprise and the effective use of feigned retreats helped to disrupt the enemy's formations. The death of Harold, struck in the eye by an arrow, further weakened the English defense and contributed significantly to William's success.
