Hogriders Overpowered

I love how you mock my game progression and inexperience, skipping over what my post was all about: your suggestion of how to "fix" the hogs. It would make them worse than before they got buffed, and no one would use hogs after that, they would not even be useful assets. Anyway, if I came across as offensive, I apologize - I just think your ideas on how the hogs should be nerfed are very radical. Would not A movement speed nerf and/or a DPS nerf would be more relevant? Would you also care to enlighten us on how you have been able to play Clash for about two years, seeing it was released in August 2012?
From what I've picked up from base design and assessment threads, anti-hog bases would generally be more vulnerable to GoWiPes and mass air due to the placement of defenses, is this wrong? Just wondering, since you use an anti-hog base that also is able to counter GoWiPe and almost any other mighty army, using your own words. I'm not trying to mess with you, I'm just asking since you admittedly have more knowledge than me on this topic, being TH10.

Peace out!

Ofcourse i have anti-hog layout, believe me, you need it!
My TH10 base has all def 1 lvl prior to max or maxed already, infernos, 2858 cups and have been playing for about two years, so yes, I do know what i'm talking about.
When you're pushing trophy's, you wanna take out def so you can take down TH. When you are farming, you wanna take recourses, so that makes your comment more or less irrelevant.
You were never confronted with 40+ lvl5 hogriders, 5 lvl6 heal spells, a bunch of wiz and clancaste to top it off, losing 2 in every 3 defense against hogs.

My base beats Go-wipes 3 out of 4, such as: 3 golem5, 10+ wiz6, witches 2, five rage lvl5 and the likes of almost any mighty army, accept for the most part those hogs.. that's not rigtht, and it aint easy to change the outcome!
The impact this unit has on the game since they buffed it, is way, way to big.
That's not a story, it's a fact.
Come back when you pushed trophy's and tell me you don't think hogriders are overpowered, as apposed to high / max tier units.

In the mean time, have fun farming ;)

Yeah they are a bit OP, let em roll and you are totally dead. We need a defense against them..Hog Tower anyone?

I am using an "ANTI hog base". That I am going to approve today it is totally useless. Hogs need to be nerf or I am done with this game.

I have made this suggestion a few times and never heard a good reason why not ... limit each level of hog as to the level of wall they can jump so, for example,
lvl1 can jump walls level 1-5
lvl2 can jump 1-6
lvl3 can jump 1-7
lvl4 can jump 1-8 and
lvl5 can jump 1-9

That way SC encourages 'investment' in walls, re-engages the disenfranchised people who have already made the investment and now feel it was a complete waste of money/time, and all will be well in the world ;)

Those defeats suck and really take a toll on ya... But, anti hog bases only works well if your heroes are awake and you CC castle is full of Wizards lvl 5 and above (7+2archers)...

Hogs became a little OP after that update and they were trying to make them worse which i think is funny thinking about how they did the opposite of helping! lol

I have base state more or leass equal to yours. I would say that it is even slightly weaker(I have some buildings, mostly cannons, 2 lvl prior the max). Also played at pretty close ratings. 8 of about 10 last hog attacks were failed on my def(which is true anti-hog). 2 wins were 1-star wins against base with empty CC.

But anti-hog base is WEAKER against GoWiPe . So I if you do win most GoWiPes without fully maxed def buildings, than I would suspect that your base is not actually anti-hog one ;)

Gamedevelopers gave us a chose different base layouts to counter different tactics. I would say that is great!

Before you quit, could you please provide your base screen-shot. I wanna see "anti-hog base that is totally useless" :D:D:D

Use giant bombs, they are really worth it against hogs. SC should rename them to hog rider bombs.

Removing favorite target wouldn't help at all, my clanmate from my old clan was using them even before they were buffed (that's right - buffed) and he could 3 star any maxed out TH9 base. His first loss with them was when SC changed their target to defense and he did not notice that so he deployed them wrong

Could you please provide YOUR base screen-shot. You have questioned the quality of two different players' bases in two different hog threads, and it would be helpful to see what really makes a good anti-hog base. Personally,I can't see logic in sacrificing a good base that defends well against all other forms of attack,just to be able to beat hog attacks. The game's balance is well and truly off when one low tier cheap troop can run amok in generally well constructed bases. Common sense dictates a further nerf for the piggies. Thanx.:rolleyes:
