New unit idea: Dark goblins

So I think this could be an excellent idea, especially with the most recent update...

The Dark Goblin is a unit you make in the Dark Barracks that ONLY targets the Town Hall.

Forget the loot and defensive structures.. The Dark Goblins go straight for those shiny trophies.

Now that all of our units act like idiots and just run into bases and get slaughtered while trying to attack heroes that they cannot even reach, we need a unit that will directly go for the Town Hall.

Troops that specifically target the TH would be way OP.

this needs stats please, also, a few of these troops and some healing spells would be way to OP... free trophies for everyone!

Agree on them being too OP, trophy farmers would just do full Dark Goblin runs and go straight for THs. Try stopping 200+ Dark Goblins at once.

I believe the Dark Goblins would have to have low HP just like normal goblins. I doubt anyone would be able to get a TH in the middle of a base with normal goblins. How on earth would they get past wizard towers and inferno towers?

Or underpowered, depending on the stats

Interesting idea. I think the troop would have to have major trade-offs of course. Either very low health or expensive.

Goblins are the fastest unit for one. If you are massing 200 in a line to a TH with an added heal, rage or freeze spell, there's no way the towers would stop all 200 in time from killing them.

They have low HP yea, but they will still take a few hits, it won't be 1 hit kill from wizard towers most likely.

It would have to be 1 hit kill from max wizard towers and max mortars. Infernos would fry them pretty good too. Dark Goblins wouldn't be able to fly by the way. So it is not like they are just soaring over multiple walls straight to your TH.

The idea is to incorporate them in your army, not to max your Army Camps with them. As you bust through a defense, release them to take out the Town Hall as your other units are getting slaughtered by untouched defenses because they decide to chase after heroes instead, thanks to the new update.

Stats?? Also, this would need a pretty weak damage, and HP to work. Which just isn't worth it as people won't use it with low stats. A troop targeting the TH isn't needed, and would be either very overpowered, or underpowered. Thanks for listening/reading.
