There are actually a lot of counters to the graveyard out there. I have had to stop using it because of them. The goblin barrel, in my opinion, still falls short of the graveyard's effectiveness, as it does less damage, can be countered by a variety of spells, and only has 3 goblins to do the work. Most use it either as spellbait or as a way to slowly chip away at a tower rather than as a part of a mass push. The graveyard is difficult to counter when it is part of a larger attack, where many other cards (which could be used to counter it) are already locked on a tank.
