How to win with Hog EQ against Graveyard
General strategy for these deck types, written by hand. The win rates on this page are measured; this advice isn’t.
Graveyard decks usually need a building or tank to protect the skeletons, so Earthquake is at its best when you play it on Tombstone or another defender with Hog Rider right behind.
When they spend five elixir on Graveyard, send Hog into the opposite lane so they must choose between defending and finishing the tower.
Keep Valkyrie or your other splash card for the skeletons and place it close to the tower, in the middle of the Graveyard. Do not spend it on a Hog defense when they can afford Graveyard next.
Watch out for Freeze and Poison: when they play it with Graveyard, do not stack your troops on the tower, since that gives the spell full value.
How to win with Graveyard against Hog EQ
Use your building or tank to soak up Hog Rider, then land Graveyard when they have spent their splash card on defense.
Earthquake will threaten your buildings, so do not count on a single defensive building; keep a ground troop for Hog.
Cheap cycle decks answer big pushes easily, so play Graveyard alongside modest pressure rather than an all-in.
