Pop-Up Walls! A unique trap

First of all, I didn't think of this myself. I saw the general idea in another thread with about 9 other suggestions and since the grammar is sloppy and the thread is long, I figured few people would get around to reading it. But I do think it is a great idea. Now...

Unlocked at TH 8, these walls at first seem like ordinary walls. They cost the same, look the same (actually, these will have to look different so you can differentiate between the two types, just haven't thought of it yet), and have the same upgrades. But! They aren't just walls, they're pop-up walls! ​ The deal is, just like traps, they are invisible to the enemy until they get within one tile of them, and all of a sudden they pop out of the ground! Troops wouldn't know they are there just like you, so if there is a cannon just inside a row of pop-up walls they'll try to go get it, only to be stopped! Wallbreakers will not target them until they appear, of course, and all that...

You unlock 10 at TH 8, another 10 at TH 9, and finally 5 more at TH 10.
Unlike damage-dealing traps, these do not need to be re-armed, like regular walls.

I think these walls would make base designs even more interesting and add some surprise and strategy to the game.
What do you think?

IMO, this is one of the few good ideas that come out of this Sub-Forum. It would add so much more strategy to the game. This would be a pretty interesting idea to have, and would spice up base design a great deal.

it would be too obvious to guess where thes walls are.

not if you are sneaky! If you don't it it has any value, it might as well get added and not harm anything. It's actually great and slightly balances defense vs offense

Not really. Most people would spot it as funneling.

Sweet idea +1 from me

No more than Hidden Teslas...

I think this is a ridiculously cool idea.
But for the sake of balancement and playability in all styles of the game. I just can't see it being a good idea.
It would be brilliant for lower levels of game play. I can't see it really effecting much of the 2700+ trophy range, as their bases aren't set up for that kind of thing. It's only going to really affect farmers, and 1800-2400(ish) trophy range in my opinion.

It's just going to make farming, other active players harder. Which can be particularly hard trying to find a person with a decent amount of resources anyway. Let alone the strength of their defences.

To be honest I love the idea, it could make base designs much more important, and would improve mid level trophy gameplay. But, on the downside defence would become a lot better for just mid level game play.

I think I'm sitting on the fence.
I would love to see the idea come into the game, but I can see it being a love/hate relationship.

I actually like this idea! +1 from me!

So you're saying it's a really good idea but defenses are already strong enough, loot is already difficult enough to gain?
I see what you mean there, completely understandable.
