In order to better fight them, it is good to have a card that can reset their attack. Consider adding one of these:

Ladder info

Some cards can be both level-independent and weak/strong when under/overleveled. Example: A lower-level Ice Golem doesn't kill Skarmy, so it's 'Weak'. However, in other aspects such as tanking, it works perfectly fine on lower levels.

Level-independent

Cards that are good even on lower level. Their key stats are not influenced by the level too much and no key interactions are level-dependent.

Fire Spirit Knight Royal Recruits Mega Minion Skeleton Army

Strong when overleveled

Cards that are particularly strong if you have them on higher level. Their key interactions with some cards are changed when they are level or two above the other card.

Skeleton Army Graveyard

Weak when underleveled

Cards that are particularly weak if you have them on lower level. Their key interactions with some cards are changed when they are level or two below the other card.

Fire Spirit

Free-to-play score

For a quick orientation about how easy it is to level up the deck for free-to-play players. The more epics and legendaries it contains, the lower the score.
