Offensive strategies

• You can active the Iron Fist Ability right before ending the battle so he will return in your village with full HP, you don’t need or can minimize the regenerate  waiting time.
• Don’t use the ability too fast, wait until the lost HP is more than the recoverable HP so you will not wait a single drop of HP. But you don’t always need to do that, once you hit the core and there are plenty of Barbarians nearby, just active the Iron Fist so your troops can work faster.
• Come with him, Barbarians will be much fearful because of the Ability.
• If you use air attacks, use him for clearing the outside building. Deploy him wisely in order to not be attacked by any defensive buildings.

• If you place your Barbarian King outside the base, you shouldn’t let him guard the base because he won’t do too much, the enemies can take him out easily. Just let him sleep.
• If you place him inside the base and near other defensive buildings, he can lure the enemy troops into your base and ruins the attack. There are plenty of base layouts use him as a trap.
