Short very specific articles vs long in-depth articles earn by blogging adsense income

I was watching a video that suggested the following breakdown for content to get a new niche website to start ranking:

30 posts...

1/3 "response posts" - shorter posts on a very specific question like "how to change the aperture on a Nikon d3200 camera"

1/3 "staple posts" - sharable content like "10 ways to improve your basketball freethrows"

1/3 "pillar posts" - super in-depth 3,500 word posts that target more generic/competitive keywords like "basketball fitness"

Do you think if I'm able to just write 30 larger pillar posts, would that be even better than their suggested breakdown of articles? Or will Google not start to rank my pillar posts even if they contain answers to the same sorts of questions that I'd be answering in response posts?

Basically what I'm wondering is... Is the fact that response posts have really specific long-tail keywords in the title of the page a key part of it? Or will Google pick long-tail keywords out of 4,000-word posts I write just as well?
