How to win with Log Bait against Elite Barbarians
General strategy for these deck types, written by hand. The win rates on this page are measured; this advice isn’t.
Make the opponent spend small spells on your swarm cards, then land Goblin Barrel once their answer is gone, and finish with Rocket in double elixir.
Use a swarm or a building and keep distance; they fall quickly to focused damage from several small troops.
Counter-push the survivors immediately, as E-Barbs spent means a low elixir window.
