He is tough, but is he?? how long does it take to kill a golem with some barbs, minipekka, or minion horde? i know you can counter this but its difficult considering the 8 cost elixir. If you counter with a spell you have no elixir left to drop enough troops to deal some damage. Once he dies, you need a zap to reset the towers aggro as it will change to kill your mosqueteer-mage-minipekka.
This is more noticeable in case you have to defend the other lane as it is very likely to get splitted, once you drop the golem.
In this scenario, you shouldn't invest more than 4 on the split, sometimes you can use a long range troop, aka mosqueteer on the last column so it will shoot the hog or rg and then follow the golem.
Still, golem deck is only used by golem lovers :heart:, as its quite difficult to play with it in the current meta
