I don't get what's so good about the golem.
2 on 1, a pekka could easily kill 2 golems. They have a lot of hp but the damage is so low that I feel it's pretty much just a shield that does nothing other than shielding other troops. Is the hp the only reason? I guess since mine are level 1 they still sucks
Distraction while your wizards or whatever you are using shoot awayQuote:

Its best to deploy them so they'd be in range of the most number of defenses so your other troops can destroy those defenses without dying. I'm a frequent Golem user myself, even only at TH8.
Golems are amazing tanks, with 4500 HP at level 1 they smash every other troop on the health front. Their damage doesn't matter, they are used to distract defences for an extremely long period of time while other, fragile troops such as wizards take out the buildings.
As an added bonus they deal 350 damage to surrounding buildings/walls upon death and create two smaller golemites with 1/5 stats which distract the defences even longer.
If you have plenty of DE they are well worth their cost when raiding high level bases.
They are heavy tanks. Support them with archers/wizards.
you can't compare golem vs pekka because they each have different uses. Golem is an exceptionally good tanking unit while pekka is used for its high attack power. Apples n oranges...
Agree with jelly. Only use is HP and tank, plus 500+ splash damage when killed is enormous on cc troops
I suppose, but if a cc troops are still alive when the golem dies either u didn't lure them and they were triggered halfway or u don't have enough supportQuote:

Drop in golems and then feed in troops that shoot stuff behind them. Mortars, wiz towers, teslas, etc all target the golems and allow ur other troops time to work.
At a high enough lvl. 1 golem, 7 Pekka, some wizards and wall breakers, can easily get a good win. the golem projects the pekka, and wizards from being abliterated by defences, when the golem dies, the aggressive attacking should have you near 50-60%, and thus, a successful raid.!
They're meant to absorb damage, and yeah archers DESTROY them, but play strategically, they are the best things evar.
