Upgrade your cards! My skeleton barrel paired with zap takes out max minion hoards.

Lvl 11 Skeleton Barrel Death Damage=81

Lvl 12 Zap Area Damage=210

That is 291 damage, Max Minion HPS=278.

Not the ideal way to kill minion hoards but hey it works well if you are trying to save your heavy hitters from getting wrecked by them and you don't have arrows. It is an even elixir trade and if you are near the tower you get an easy 155 damage off the tower too plus any Larrys that live and take a few hits off the tower.
