How to win with Hog EQ against Mega Knight

General strategy for these deck types, written by hand. The win rates on this page are measured; this advice isn’t.

Force an answer to Hog Rider every cycle and use Earthquake on a defending building and the tower together, so each spell does double duty.

Punish it in the other lane when they spend big on an early Mega Knight.
