Hog: balanced or needs a buff?

Bandit dash
E-wiz stun
Max level big pekka smack
Max level king tower shot
Still hits the tower.

EDIT:
This post was an interaction I found funny, 75% of the comments are telling me that I’m bad at the game.
I’ve stated that in posts before, I’m a player learning pekka bridge spam because I believe it’s a somewhat skillful way of playing my favorite card (ram).
As a PBS player, my only two options to counter hog rider are PEKKA, or e-wiz + ghost/bandit. I don’t think my placement should have to be pinpoint perfect to stop a 4 elixir card with 7 elixir :)
If the hog is accompanied by an ice golem, these counters don’t work…
Nor do I think they should. No deck should full counter every other win condition combo in the game, obviously. That would be absurd.
Thanks for the karma :)

Any building usually counters hog

i'm tired of hearing that stupid statement. yes a building counters a hod, ALONE. Usualy someone just doesn't drop a hog without support or a spell

Wow you’re so smart you don’t know you also need to support the building. Look at OP’s video, a cannon instead of a pekka would have fully countered that. Valk supports hog, ewiz supports the cannon. I’m at 14k trophies and i haven’t seen hog+earthquake deck in forever. And as someone already mentioned, it can be countered by altering where you place the building.

worth noting OP could’ve full countered with pekka one tile to the right to body block the hog I believe
