Yeah! Actually there's more ways to 'bypass' it:

• You can also swap something with Apprentice, which points two Bishops attacking t1.
• You can use Harpy+++ and push a strong attacking minion out, like Spearman.
• You can use a minion that naturally has fast movement that can get into attacking range like Fireball+++, but usually this isn't very cost effective.
