Card Roles[]
- Hog Rider: Win condition. Unless your opponent has buildings or Tornado, Hog Rider usually will get a hit or two. With a fast cycle speed, you can usually out-cycle your opponents Hog counters and cycle back to your Hog.
- Musketeer: Air defense. Having amazing raw states, Musketeer is very solid on defense against both air and ground pushes given enough protection.
- Ice Golem: Mini Tank. Its lack of damage is balanced by its building targeting nature, which allows for cheap kiting and tanking in various situations.
- Ice Spirit: Cycle card. Can be used to chip a Crown Tower, support your Hog Rider or aids in defense as the 1.3 second freeze can be very valuable, as well as the chip damage that can be done to the tower.
- Skeletons: Cycle card. Provides amazing DPS for its cheap cost, as well as 3 bodies to distract heavy hitting units.
- Tesla: Defensive building. For the same Elixir, Tesla provides additional Anti-Air coverage with the Musketeer and attracts building targeting troops.
- The Log: Small Spell. Can be used to cycle, chip at your opponent's Tower, crush ground swarms and offset pushes. Can be used to predict light swarms when sending out your hog rider.
- Fireball: Big Spell. Knock backs light and medium weight troops as well as severely crippling or destroying Fireballies. Pairs well with log to take out support units.
Strategy[]
- This deck revolved around pushes with Hog Rider, Musketeer, and Ice Golem.
- Defensively, there are a lot of combinations with Ice Golem, and the 1-Elixir cards.
- Musketeer is cruicial as the Anti-Air. Keep her separated from the Tesla, to avoid spell value.
- Musketeer can outrange Cannon, allowing her to clear the path for the Hog Rider safely.
- Cycle with your cheap cards to get to your Hog Rider faster.
