I think it will just be hog and balloonion raids against Town hall 9 players and Gowiwi against th10 players.
I think it is going to be ruined by the imbalanced hogs tbh.
Thoughts?

What about the thousands of clans that don't have any of those troops? Do a lot of you fail to realise that there are more players than just those in TH9-10?
As for your thoughts... no, I think many different combos will be used although there will be a few that you see more often. I don't see why that is any different than the way things are now. 21 of the last 24 attacks on me have been hog spams.
That's fair enough. I didn't really think about th8 and below. I guess they will just use giant + healer with wbs, barbs & archers I guess?Quote:

People can use anti hog bases, Ringus, arguable the most popular Th 9 base is excellent at killing off hogs. Besides Hogs do take skill, just because it can three star Th8s and some TH9 bases with skill doesn't mean its over powered
I feel like there will be lots of combinations gorzo :)
I wish I was as naive as you.Quote:

Troop levels are factored into the equation.. looking forward to see how well it pairs us up. If one clan only has a few people with max hogs, hopefully the other is similar.
Not to worry, everyone will make anti-hog base anyway.
Hmm.. I didn't look at it like that. I assumed it would be a formula that gives a certain value based on all the factors. Maybe it is more like trying to pair those with similar stuff to each other IE. 30 players have lv 5 hogs from each clan etc.Quote:

Could you enumerate the reasons I am being naive, I don't intend to be confrontational just want an opurtunity to learn.Quote:

Actually, yes. I've seen someone raided one of my clan mate's premmie TH 9 village (with 1 lvl 1 x-bow and lvl 5 mortars) using 34 lvl 5 hogs and failed to get even 1 star.
haha like this??? Start at 1 minute and 50 seconds for the raidsQuote:

Bring on the hoggies!!
Im going to try and use valks with clan wars as a trial run. This will help test your strateegies with almost no loss besides the cost of your troops
I still don't see a reason people can't just use anti hog bases, even at TH 8 double giant bombs can kill hogs? TH 10 has inferno towers so hogs take skill to use there too because of no healing.Quote:

I'm using dragons + rage spells or maybe lightning to take one air def out. Not sure which spell is better strategically but I like rage better.
Hogs are not op...http://i58.tinypic.com/10x4xlt.jpg
Oh, you dodged one hog attack! ONE!!Quote:

If 42 hogs and 5 healing spells can't get more than 1k gold, they can't be too good...Quote:

Arguably the most popular Th9 base, Ringus, eats hogs alive. Disco infernos are not the only way to counter hogs.
I'll be using all-dragon with rage spells. I'm th 10 though... but still. Pretty sure you can make anti-hog bases.
its all about hogs and jump spells. it makes the hogs jump higher and hard to hit. i usually drop 2 jump spells outside corner of the base then drop 34-40 hogs.. they jump straight to the center of the base in one jump and takes out the disco infernos and townhall, you should try it.
As a matter of fact I'm HOPING someone attacks me with hogs instead of gowiwi or ballonian. My inferno towers and xbows take care of hogs in a matter of seconds so i ain't worried about hog wars.
As a TH7 I will Mass dragon
There will be lots of strategies. I like using hogs, but they take up a lot of de to train. Maybe im just a noob, but i like to change it up and have fun with my raids. Like all archers? Heck yeah! Only barbs and wizards? Why not? A barb king and 10 healers? Great! Clan wars won't just be hogs at all.
anti hog base. :D expect balloonions.
I'm going with my hogs/dragons combo. With 2 freezes and 2 heals. The key will be to get more stars and you give. The only time I lost 2 stars in push mode was against maxed GoWiWi.
I'm not afraid of hogs. They will get nerfed anyway in the update. If they are too slow, I'll just go with loonion. My golems are too weak for matchup like that.
I think we will see different army mix because we won't all be the same trophy level. I don't expect to see champion level armies just because we are in clan wars. 99% of the players are casual anyway. Lots of people will try clan wars just for fun.
Can't agree enough with this sentence.Quote:

I think they might nerf them with the update.
