The difference is , mega minion hits slower than regular minions , Mega barbs hit at the same speed . Mega barbs have very fast movespeed , but mega minion became slower . BasicallyMinion Mega Minion Total damage per second decreased Total HP increased a little , single HP raised by a lot . Movespeed decreased greatly Attack Speed DecreasedBarbs Mega Barbs Total damage per second decreased Total HP decreased , single unit HP increased a lot Movespeed greatly increased Attack speed is the same Elixir increased by 1 Considering all these things , I still have no conclusion on whether the mega barbarians are worth it at 6 elixir . We need to test to find out . From what I see , Mini Pekka has better damage than both of the barbs combined , and more single unit HP . We need to test it to see if mega barbs are worth it . But now , I must prepare myself for receiving nothing but mega barbs for the next week or so .
