Yeah, I always used to carry some barbs. The reason was if a Witch came out of the CC she would leave skellys in the base then when Minions went in they would get sucked straight to the skellys.
If you drop a barb or two the skellys come out then you can put 1 or 2 minions on them.
Just be careful with the BK. That guy can also mess up a nice raid.
