i would say magikills because a horde of them are actually very terrifying in terms of destruction strength and that the barbie dolls aren't going to splash attack.
20 of them can easily erase a pekka. chief pat obliterated an entire villa with 40 of them
wizards... or witches if you are affulent enough to have them.
I m not sure we will have enough room in our camps to make an army that can take 100% of a village with the new changes. We used tier 1 troops which take the least space in camps to lure the BK or AQ, then deploy the higher tier troops. Now we may need a lot of wb to break deep early on so that we can direct heavy troops such as valkyre or pekka towards the core of the village. Pekkas will be tricky cos they prefer the periphery and unless the periphery is clear of stuff they may not go towards the center. I also think we may need to use jump spell consistently but that is not an option for th 8 and below. Wizards will be a good choice too but they will not survive the heat from the defensive buildings if deployed early. Maybe a shield of giants followed by wizards and then another wave of giant/healer. Also if there is no AQ, some help by air will work well if u time it well with your usual army. We just have to see how big of a radius the heroes will have. If they really make good defense we may see them lesser and lesser used in attacks cos players would like to keep them healthy for defense. It is certainly going to be a challenge for clan wars cos the heroes are always up! I think we will have harder time to get to the TH and dark elixir storage. On the other hand it will be easier to steal from collectors and take down enough of the other buildings to win an attack while the BK and AQ are hanging out at the TH :)
if you are affluent enough, use golems instead of giants.
Golems are also a good choice if you want a shield that can absorb a lot of heat but at low level they cant do miracles if they are getting attacked by defense buildings and heroes simultaneously. It will be challenging for lower players to attack villages that are developed but are sitting at low level trophies.
i once ran into a farming TH8 in bronze 1... augh just too freaking glass-dropping...... btw yeah there are radical farmers to watch for. i have the highest trophy count in my clan and i am weaker than 1/2 of the clan peeps.
