I tested the necessary part of the code – this is how it works. Each time after the phoenix/elementals die, the hero summons them again.

elemental = 0
fenix = 0
  
function DefenderHeroMove(hero)
  if elemental == 0 then
    elemental = 1
    startThread(UnitCastGlobalSpell, hero, SPELL_SUMMON_ELEMENTALS)
  end
  if fenix == 0 then
    fenix = 1
    startThread(UnitCastGlobalSpell, hero, SPELL_CONJURE_PHOENIX)
  end
  return not nil
end

function DefenderCreatureDeath(unit)
  if(GetCreatureType(unit) == 85) then
    print('fire elem dead')
    elemental = 0
  end
  
  if(GetCreatureType(unit) == 91) then
    print('phoenix dead')
    fenix = 0
  end
end

Question about combat scripts. I want to create a boss battle, but not a simple one. The battle starts against a succubus and a devil. After the succubus is killed, the devil disappears and an archdemon spawns. If the devil dies first, the succubus disappears and a temptress is summoned. The question is, what commands are used to do this, and is it even possible (will the battle end after only one unit is killed, and are there any other pitfalls)?

I don't know how to remove units that have been present since the beginning of the battle (you need their scripted name).

OrnsteinDragonslayer, the code is so incorrect that it's unclear where to even begin explaining. You should start by noting that the game directly indicates in which function the error occurred and which variable it didn't like. There are none of those in the provided code, which means the error occurred in another part of the combat script. As for the rest, I recommend looking at Novik's manual, especially regarding combat hooks.
