Don't you just love it when...

Among my many fails:

- Not knowing what's in my clan castle when deploying it. Seeing a golem come out when I'm short on clock and just need a couple archers to finish off the DE.

- Using up all my archers / wizards as a CC kill squad and finding I only have defensive-seeking troops left. Nothing to hit an exposed town hall or fat collector.

- Sending in a lava hound against an AD under construction

- Deploying a string of clean-up troops, not realizing I have 2 seconds left.

- Completely missing a dragon or balloon with poor poison placement.

- Thinking I drew an empty CC, only to have a dragon make mince meat of 18 giants

- Sending in giants to take out an AD, and then forgetting to wait to deploy the healer until after the AD is destroyed

- Healing infernos.

- And at least 100 more ways I've managed to botch a simple raid.

Seeing a stuffed base getting over excited and dropping cc on trash buildings instead of barch to clear em doh!!

Last Nov, while waiting for last rage to cook for 2nd war attack, decided to get a few Snipes in, made a few archers, and started nexting, found one, went to drop my arch, and dropped 3 Golem...

No gems to hurry 3 golems, we lost war by 1 star.... Clanmates were NOT happy....

I got 2 sad stories.

Pre December update i was trying to practice SQ and was nexting until i found a target i liked. I nodded off and my finger touched the screen deploying a fleet of wizards way off in a corner on a very nice th10. Woke up with about 20 seconds left in the raid. Stared confused and dropped my AQ next to the easy th snipe. Barely pulled off a star. Thank the all mighty pre update loot bonus for that outcome.

During a war i was doing a clean up run. I was stacked for gowiwi. I sneezed and the spittle hit the screen. All my WBs deployed out and in my panic to repair the failure i tried to wipe the screen and deployed all my wizards opposite my golems on the map. I think i finished with about 30% and a demotion in the clan. It was a bad day.

Don't you just love it when you accidentally deploy a lightening spell on the grass?

I just yell "There's the Lightning, here comes the thunder!" and continue in hopes of pulling it off! 😄

We have a guy in our clan called lum (nicknamed lump) he is notorious for spamming dropping all his spells off the side during war attacks. Thus we named this the lump dump. Nobody wants to lump dump xD
