How is dart goblin a real card

Maybe a better player can tell me how to counter this card other than arrows. How can a card with one of the longest ranges, fastest speed, and fastest dps a real card for only 3 elixir. Literally all the other annoying cards in okay with because there is some way to counter them. But with dart goblin it always gets a hit on the tower no matter what you do. At least princess you have time to react. Now a evo comes out that is looking to be one of the strongest evos ever?? I can’t take it anymore my skill issues are taking over :(
