Got some good runs today, some 300k in a few searches from inactives
This, I am TH10 with an Anti Hog design and two disco infernos and I still can loose two Gold Stores to a good TH10 hogger. I almost always "win" the defense cup wise, but it still hurts to loose 200K in gold. My last push I had over 30 defense wins - the majority were hogs. I think I got 1-2 star three or so times by hogs.
Sure you get the noob attack who does not lure CC or drops them all in one place. Those guys get schooled hard.
It is just hard to stop hogs from clearing out enough defenses around some of your gold stores. Then comes king, queen and lvl6 wizzies.

these are 4 hog attacks on my th9 base that hoggers should be getting 3 stars on me,almost all my losses in masters seem to be gowiwi
Good defense. Most good hoggers I have seen deploy in lines and use two waves. Soo, looking at your base, the first line should come from top or bottom corner. They should clear off defenses up to air defense on both sides. Then next wave heads straight to your core - heading to xbow.
Hogs deploy a lot like balloons. All you got to do is clear those outside defenses and the next wave will head right to the core. Or you can deploy them in a V pattern. Starting at the top points at the same time. The ones in middle/bottom part will head straight to the core since the outside buildings are destroyed.
Once your xbow in the core is down, wizzies and queen should have no troubles cleaning up. Perhaps your attackers see a TH9 and just get sloppy! I know I have before, lol.
I am farming in silver 1-2 using hogs, minions (10) , barb, arch ,gob,gob and all heal spells
this is how i set up my barracks and I don't worry about the ratio other then limiting the minions to about ten. It gives me great flexibility and I can get most of the loot out of any base. Seeing lots of 200k+-200k+ 500-1000de bases that I can take Biggest issue is running out of time before the loot is collected. I also us my heros lvl9 and lvl8 when they are not upgrading. Hogs are lvl 5 barbs 5 rest are maxxed.

can you guess the attack right before I started my de drill upgrade?
Townhall 9 And i defend against hoggs pretty well . .
Two gold storages would be considered a fail for most hoggers.
I had a noob hogger only manage to clear half my TH9 defenses, and yet his AQ and wizards manage to scrape 3 gold storages and all my DE. Half of the base is soooo easy to crack with hogs.
I consider it a defensive win (regardless push or farm) if the attacker has to put his queen to sleep.
True defeat is when the AQ and BK walks around your village untouched after.
Hehe, my favorite was guy who dropped 35 hogs, 15 barbs, 6 wizzies, 5 archers, 2 heal, 2freeze, 1rage, lvl10Queen and level 9 king. Plus his cc which had a drag and two balloons. His take from me?! 0 Gold, 0 Elixir, 0 DE and 0 Cups. In fact he gave me 25 cups. If I was that dude my head would explode! :p
Of I think I had either a lvl4 drag or some wizzies/witches in CC. Totaly mauled him though! The funny thing is my cup base had two BLANTANT spots where two max big bombs were sitting side by side. Yet, some of these poor guys would drop 20+ hogs nearby and watch them turn into bacon! It was blatant because my base was square except in 2 spots where the walls jutted out enough to handle two big bombs. And that spot had a defense turret on either side. Personally I thought it was too obvious, but I was hopeing people would skip me cause it. But nope, instant bacon central.
Only downside to anti hog bases is this those darn farm giant based army REVENGES. Impossible to stop them from getting a single gold store. And you got ZERO cups on the defense since they were soo lower then you. That and dropping 90K+ in gold to rearm traps. Hated that.
Edit: Just clairfied about getting revenged by farmers.
Second Edit: When it comes to killing off hogs, nothing and I mean nothing beats them off like double max big bombs.
You can drop your heal, whatever. Insta kill.....
Why good hoggers drop them in a line.
Now record those replays, im sure i can point at least 5 mistakes in every th9 successful defense against hogs
And im pretty sure you can see the mistakes they made also, its rly not hard to see
