How has the use of minions helped in your attacks?

So I have been using minions(level 1) along with my regular army and found tat they don't particularly add much...
Want to know what has been ur experience?

I use them too. I use a barb, archer and gobs army. Adding the minions adds the possibility to get to the core of a setup when needed.

And my troops are ready for battle just a bit faster.

So I like them.

But suddenly I fear air bombs. I Dont know why. But when I see one pop up I start crying. Strange.

Haha.. No need to cry ... :D

But I find tat even when u do get to the center of the base, they don't last very long, unless u knock down all the archer towers wizard tower and air defenses ...

Air Bomb's blast radius is just ridiculously huge.

I use about 2 minions since I'm saving DE right now.

Melee troops in clan castle are way easy. Sometimes handy to clear up an occasional mortar or storage when I manage to kill any air capable defense around. Plus, I get to waste someone's air bombs... I get a strange sense of satisfaction using up people's traps without much loss to me. :cool:

Maybe because they've only been introduced recently, but i've experienced a crazy amount of epic fail attacks on my base using tons of minions...

i use them just like i use archers since i have 10k DE i don't care that much of the costs so for me it's just an extra barrack who can pump out extra troops faster

I don't use them if I don't have a Dragon in my CC troops to tank damage. They die to air bombs easily. lol

I don't use them at all, I have better uses for DE (plus my dark barrack is upgrading)
