What this deck is

Electro Giant Bait is a bait shell built around Electro Giant, Goblin Barrel, Hog Rider. It sits at 4.5 elixir, which sets how often you can repeat its pressure and how much you can afford to defend before answering back.

How it wins

The pressure this deck applies, strongest angle first.

  • Tank pressure — a heavy push the opponent has to answer with a full defence.
  • Spell bait — layered cheap threats that punish a spent small spell.
  • Bridge spam — fast units that punish an opponent mid-placement.

Where it breaks

Structural weak points read off the deck's own shell, not off a single matchup.

  • Thin anti-air: air win conditions get value before an answer lands.
