Do you guys think that supercell will skip over the lv 6 hogs? I know that they are a great troop and lv 6 would be OP... So when (if) do you think they will come?

Level 6 would be a minor upgrade, and hogs are not in any way OP - a TH9 with ranked defenses and good layout can beat a 32-hog attack easy (I know, because I defeated dozens in my last month at TH9) and add another xbow and two infernos to that and even 40-hog attacks die. There's a reason why the top players don't use hogs.
I remember the update that made the hogs go for defense, it was SO OP, they all went down hill, no one uses them anymore (again)
I think there must be a special ability what u think?!!?
Well, I said hogs suck vs -good- bases. Thankfully, there are enough morons with giant bombs on edge and clan castle not centered so hogs are still decent for farming in the 1800-2000 range. What pisses me off is that the inferno multi-target basically makes giants worthless. To combat infernos, you need gowipe, and pekka and golems take too long to build. Unless they're dumb enough to cluster their infernos and xbows all in one spot, in which case maxed freeze and enough heal spells might win the day with hogs.
I generally dislike having to rely on the enemy being dumb, though.
When pigs fly. Wait, they already do.
Their ability to absolutely demolish weaker bases or badly designed bases will probably hold them back.
When TH11 finally happens it would be a good time to release them. As then a higher hall may have some chance to fight Infernos. But having TH10 players able to roll TH9s with them would be infuriating for many developing TH9 players.
If level 6 hogs DO come out?
I quit. lol.
You bandwagon hoggers win every raid you take. Yet you ask for more power?
Give. me. a. break.
Your base must suck then. I was -never- 100% in my last month of TH9 by hogs, and they rarely even got more than one or two of my inner storages. At TH10, hardly anyone even tries to hit me with hogs, and those that do die so horribly it is laughable. Infernos next to internal giant bombs and wizard towers kill stacks of hogs in seconds. If you don't build for killing hogs, don't cry when you die to hogs.
And by the way, I win most attacks with hogs, but I do lose a lot when there is a centered CC with wizards or drag and I can't pull the troops, and I have to skip most bases with infernos because there is zero chance of winning. The reason my base defense is so good is because I've died enough attacking with hogs to know what works.
