One of the most used defensive building in CR. This is why it is important to save the Log for when you really need it. When the opponent see you have the log, they are forced to be more careful on WHEN they decide to put down the Skeleton Army. The beastly Log can clear the path for the Hog Rider. Usually, people use the Skeleton Army to counter the Hog Rider (many are using it since the update). The log is unique and there is no other card like it. However, after the buffs that SuperCell gave The Log, it is now used by many people. When The Log was first released, it was named 'the worst legendary' and 'the poo log'. If your opponent doesn't want to take damage, he needs to take care of the hog rider quickly (and he should :P). He is fast and does a really good amount of damage when it get to your opponent's tower.
The Hog Rider is the main damage dealer in this deck. Below is an card analyzer, and I'm going to show you how I use this deck. Each card has to be played right and at the right time to make an effective push. The big push is Graveyard, Miner, and Hog Rider. The average elixir cost of this deck isn't too bad, (3.8) but don't get carried away.
