How to win with Hog 2.6 against Golem Night Witch
General strategy for these deck types, written by hand. The win rates on this page are measured; this advice isn’t.
Punish the Golem placement immediately in the opposite lane; you win by trading damage, not defending.
Avoid spending your building on the Golem — save it for the support troops.
In double elixir, keep pressure constant so they can never build a full push.
Out-cycle their counters to Hog Rider, defend cheaply with Cannon and Ice Golem, and finish towers with Fireball and The Log.
Punish the Golem drop in the opposite lane, because they will be low on elixir for a long time.
Defend the support troops rather than the Golem, and keep a splash or big spell for the troops behind it.
How to win with Golem Night Witch against Hog 2.6
Build one large push behind Golem, accepting some tower damage early to win in double elixir.
Hog 2.6 wins on cycle speed, so overcommit a big push only when you can also answer the next Hog.
Take value from spells on Musketeer when Cannon or Ice Golem is nearby, since that removes their main air defense.
