Barbarians

What it looks like

The Barbarians is a Common card that is unlocked from the Barbarian Bowl (Arena 3). It spawns five single-target, ground-targeting, melee, ground troops with moderate hitpoints and damage. Their deployment is in a star formation. They appear as bare-chested men who wield swords, have blue eyes, blonde eyebrows, close-cropped hair and horseshoe moustaches, and wear a brown kilt and sandals, a team-colored belt with a shield buckle and spiked wristbands. They are also the same as those spawned by the Barbarian Hut, Battle Ram, Barbarian Barrel, and the Barbarian Launcher. A Barbarians card costs 5 Elixir to deploy.

Trivia

• The word "Barbarian" comes from the Greek "βάρβαρος" (bárbaros), meaning foreign. Dating back to the ancient Greek times, the Greeks referred to non-Greek people as barbarians because the language they spoke sounded to Greeks like gibberish represented by the sounds "bar... bar...".
