New Dark Elixir Troop: Grim Reaper

The Grim Reaper will be slower than a giant but has a very strong attack and lots of health. He also has a special ability of summoning 5 undead which are much quicker but have a low amount of health.

The Level of the Grimm Reaper affects the level of the undead.

Grim Reaper ---------->Level 2 ----------->Level 3

Health:4000 --------->Health:4500-----> Health:5000

Speed:8 ---------->Speed:10 ----------->Speed:12

Attack:600 -------->Attack:650 --------->Attack:700

Cost:500----------> Cost:600 ------------>Cost:800

--------------------Research:80,000 DE --->Research:120,000 DE


The Undead ---------->Level 2 --------------->Level 3


Health:40 ------------>Health:60 ------------->Health:85

Speed:28 ------------>Speed:32 ------------->Speed:36

Attack:10 ----------->Attack:12 ------------->Attack:14
Suggestions would really help so please post any that you think of.

Do the undead come from no where, as opposed to tombstones? Does he summon the 5 and that's it or can he keep summoning as long as he's alive, or can he only manage 5 at a time, so one dies and at the next interval he can summon one more to replace it?

It seems very OP IMO. I did a thread(see my signature) where I question the majority of new dark troop ideas, but this one could work with the progression of the dark barracks. Maybe reduce the hp by 20%, bring DPS down by 80% since it has the helpers which should be reduced to three or four. The troop space should be 30 since it can summon new troops. I don't think this will balance it enough, but it'll be reasonable to work with.

how is this different from a golem

Probably not much but golems damage is terrible. We need more original ideas like the 'wall ripper'. Search it :p

I made an updated version to make it not as OP it can only summon 10 undead total but there can only be 2 at a time

I have already asked for this. I think it's a good idea.

Keep the speed constant at ten, and have the third level increase the same amount as the second and you may have something here.

It seems to me that you are advertising your threads almost everywhere possible.
twister has mentioned something along the lines of not necessarily having an even stronger troop than golem.
I think if a new troop with unique idea has been suggested, it would be fine.
This idea certainly has its unique ability - summoning.
I certainly see your point in your thread, but no offence.
I don't really see a need to mention this in almost every new dark troop thread.
It's not gonna end.

If you have played the game long enough,
you should notice that movement speed is always a constant.

Also, due to previous comments, you've reduced most of your stats.
Did you realize that it's even less stronger than a pekka right now?
More like a weak pekka that can summon.

I like the idea of being able to summon little undeads, but that's about it.
My question though is: How does it summon?
Does it summon every x seconds? or does it summon after its health dropped below a certain level?
How long does summoning take? what target?
