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.

How to win with Elite Barbarians against Log Bait

Force answers with a fast, high-damage duo at the bridge.

Count their Goblin Barrels and save your small spell for Barrel, using troops to handle the other swarms.

Pressure them so they cannot build a bait cycle, since most bait decks defend big tanks only with Inferno Tower or a cheap building.
