How to COUNTER Golem Decks! [iTeach ep. 5]

Hey everyone, Doc Storm here.

So today we are going to continue with the iTeach series episode 5, the Golem Decks. Golem decks are another deck part of the current Meta. So we must be able to beat them if we want to be on top!

These decks usually combo the Golem with Poison Spells, or heavy units like musketeer and wizard. Even sneaky units like the hog rider (as we will see later in the video).

But taking them out is very similar and it actually is similar to dealing with a Giant deck (Review: How to COUNTER Giant Decks). Golems are just more beefy! But the bigger they are, the harder they fall. If you can learn to defend them successfully, you will punish your opponent with a HEFTY counter attack (Again Golems and hog riders both don’t do damage on your troops, so you will have troops left over from defending).

4 Easy Steps to COUNTER Golem Decks:

1. For golem decks, you can place cannon or defensive structures a bit further back compared to countering Hogs:

•        because it gives your cannon more time to fire at it
•        space up top to deploy defending troops (like goblins).
•        helps me separate the golem and its supporting troops

2. So once you separate the two groups, lay a tank or splash damage unit to defend the golem’s supporting troop.

3. Then lay your weaker melee troops to attack the golem.

4. Once you have successful took out the golem and supporting troops. Go for a HEFTY counter attack.

1) Defensive tower placement a bit lower compared to facing hog decks
2) Similar to Giant Decks, separate supporting troops and the golem
3) Be-careful of goblin placements due to poison spell
*Again may want to review at How to Counter Giant Deck article

Recap: 

1) Look at my goblin placements AWAY from the poison spell. They always target it low to help damage your towers too.

2) Sneaky golem and hog rider decks. Again Golems and Hog Riders both don’t do damage on your troops. So you can do a hefty counter attack

3) [ADVANCE technique] Valkyrie push for offence: use your fast units to push slow ones

4) Baby dragon placement to attack the side you want after it defends. Play things with intent. Don’t waste your troops!
