New form of attack that should work with ANY maxed base - roughly half the gem cost

Hi,

(i'm posting this here as it is a new strategy but if the mods think it should be in creativity please do move it)

This is something that Jesseebraer has been working on I thought i'd share it with you to see what you think.

This is a non PEKKA or Dragon attack that is pretty much guaranteed to two star ANY base no matter how high level the defences. It involves two heal and two rage. lots of wizards lots of wall breakers and a LOT of focus on one area. As you can see he uses this to drill right to the middle quite effectively.

This would mean for high cup players that the cost per attack would be a LOT lower as they don't need to gem such high level troops.

Thoughts?

EDIT - I should add he recorded this holding his camera phone so apologies for the shaky footage - I need to convince him to invest in a tripod or screen recorder software :)

Looks good. Was the base maxed? Does it work as efficient on bases with their town halls in middle? Also, horrible use of wallbreakers :p

Good point the walls in this case were only lvl 9 but I was chatting with Jess in the last few hours and this has consistently worked several times with any base - Jess is number 39 worldwide currently so he is only likely to see the top 50 or so players.

I hear you on the wb efficiency - but overall this attack saves a ton of gems for these guys so I think it's a small price to pay.

lol. 45 wall breakers used for a job that requires only 7(2+2+3) wall breakers :p

Wiz + tanker is a great offense, except that the tanker is now a cheaper giant instead of a pekka.

EDIT: The additional 20 wall breaker could be better use when you deployed the giants + BK, could have helped you break into the inner core already.

nice vid, but the point is every battle you need to tell your clan mate to donate Wbs and that is the mess for them ;) ,when they always use archers for donation!

Troops cost is 272k elix and spells cost 146k. Not bad at all considering 11 lvl3 dragons cost 440k.

I agree, wb sacrifice may be reduced to half. Very interesting and effective video. Not for me though, with lvl4 bk and lvl1 AQ, i better farm for like eternity. Thanks for sharing

Terrible use of WBers and he's using lvl 30 heroes....

Good point - I agree, it needs full clan support really

Thank you - i was lazy and didn't do the maths :) I guess it's more like 30-40% cheaper as you still need the spells

... thanks for sharing! Really enjoyed it. On our clans recent trophy hunt I discovered the effectiveness of Wizards for the first time and was using them with Giants (though mine are only Lv5). I did ok, but started losing at around 2200 cups (I'm TH8 by the way). I now realise the healing spells were the thing that was missing - very effective!

Re the use of wallbreakers - yes, on lower bases you can punch through with 4-8. But I imagine it's quite different at that trophy range!

Like this a lot :cool:

very refreshing vid! nice to see higher levels think instead of just dropping all dragons and/or pekkas. keep it up hope you master the technique and that it doesnt change too much after the update! also to the recorders credit i can imagine how hard it would be to hold camera while deploying troops...
