Minions or Archers

If you were to discount cost and training time, minions. But what kind of a question is that? It's like asking if barbs or pekkas are more useful if you discount cost and training time.

Think about it. If there was a strong base wouldn't it be easier to destroy with 110 lvl5 minions rather than 220 lvl 6 archers? I attacked a strong base with 100 lvl 1 minions once and annihilated it. I triggered the air bombs with a couple of minions and then released the rest. After that attack I attacked a base similar to the last in terms of strength. I attacked with 200 lvl 5 archers and got 62%. They were easily killed by mortar fire. Although minions are better I usually train archers because of the shorter training time.

yeah if you take off housing space and cost minions OBVIOUSLY win, but with those 2 in count, archers are besy

Traffic lights in California take a while to change. So a quick time to catch up on work emails or COC forum

These air traps have never been activated against minions so I don't know. They've only been used against dragons and I didn't notice any splash damage.

Yes they do so they kill all the minions in range.

Or would you rather choose Archers that only take 1 space and you can use 2x more compared to Minions but are slowed down by walls?

Please vote on the poll

for farmers, maybe archer is better , cheaper
for trophy hunter like me. minions is way better. since it is easier to lure queen and cc troops by minions than archers.u can use them as back up to finish 50% for one star in the end. enug said.
so I voted Minion.

I don't see how it's a contest if you remove the cost and training time factors.

Dont forget that the new air bombs absolutely destroy those minions. I am yet to try lvl 5 minions but they still can evade the air bomb with one hit.

if you use them wisely, minions cant do a lot more damage and avoid being popped by air bombs (at least not all together).
