If [E] baiting:

Use Guardian Dash at the Barbarian. This will inflict a 0.2 defense debuff at the Barbarian, and a 0.2 defense increase for you. In addition, it'll stagger the Barbarian as well. The Barbarian could bash you while in mid-flight, but Bash requires to make contact with the target in order for Bash to hit, making the Barbarian staggered in effect of doing so. Also, take note of the 0.2 defense increase for Commander!

If using Pain Bringer:

Use Decimate to go over Pain Bringer. Barbarian can't [E] bait while in Pain Bringer (obviously). After Decimate, if the Barbarian tries to charge at you, either unequip your weapon or use Support Wave to damage the Barbarian indirectly.

If Bashed:

When you recover from Bash, use Critical Point. Barbarian can't stun you at that amount of time, and also cannot run away from Critical Point as well. It'll be a guaranteed hit, and will deal These are all well and good, but are you going to have a critical point evry time you are bashed?

Barbarians can move when using painbringer, so they can either get away from the decimate or go under the decimate so when the commander lands, the commander is decimated.

The Guardian dash strat is pretty good, but if we are going off using alot of mana, nothing can stop a good ol' cataclysm (forgot how to spell that) once the barb gets up!
