How do you use minions?

They have a few uses but I mainly use them for funnelling, back end base clearance and targeting isolated ground defences

Don't listen to them. You need to ask the expert.

To add another less common use for them, support of a healer AQ walk. They can trigger air traps that would otherwise take down the healers and they also provide fire support without drawing the healers off your queen.

I use them for clean up after the defenses are taken out.

Hey, I recognize you from the CR forum.


In addition to what the others have said, minions are great (esp at th7) for picking off collectors and mines that are protected by cannons and mortars.

Also, loonion (balloons and minions) is one of my favorite farming strategies. Check out a tutorial on YouTube!

I do the exact same thing. Sometimes I use a baby drag instead if I think it will come under minor fire but still be able to clear a decent chunk. But, they are really great for funneling in areas where a canon or mortar has range but nothing air-targeting does.

Frosty u should stick to clash royale, u will reach a wall where u have to waste so much effort and time to upgrade a single defense later, I regret wasting my time on this game to get my TH to lvl9 almost max, it was fun back when there was farming and u didn't have to play 24/7 to progress, also the updates are getting lame in COC, no offense to clash of clans fans.
