Three Best Goblin Barrel Counters
So if you watched that video, it is pretty clear what some of the best counters to the goblin barrel are. Let’s rank the top three, starting with number 1!
1. Log- Ever since the nerf to the zap, the log has been the number one counter to the goblin barrel. For two elixir, you can completely take out the goblin barrel without them doing any damage to your tower. If you are lucky enough to unlock the log, make sure to pop it in your deck to counter any goblin barrels you might come across.
2. Arrows- Besides log, arrows is one of the cards that can completely take out the goblin barrel without having the goblins get a shot off onto your tower. Proper timing is critical; you don’t want to release your arrows too early and risk missing the goblins or too late and let the goblins get some damage. Practice will make perfect.
3. Tornado- While tornado doesn’t offer a complete shutdown of the barrel, it does give you something valuable: king’s tower activation. When you place the tornado on the tile to the left or right of the king’s tower, the goblins will stab at the KT, activating it for the rest of the game, while suffering minimal damage to your tower!
That’s our quick guide to countering the goblin barrel! I hope that you guys can make smarter counters and use those three cards to never lose to the goblin barrel again. Thanks for reading and comment below how you usually counter the GB!

Skeleton Army is also a great counter to Goblin Barrel for an even elixir trade as well as creating a counterpush. It’s very risky though, as it might get Zapped.

True, but it’s rare to have a zap waiting for the skarmy counter
