Hogs work just fine, don't be a noob.
I agree. I think it's just a matter of improvising now. Before a hog attack was one attack that worked 90% of the time. Now it's back to using different attacks based upon the opponent's defense and setup.Quote:

3 Golems, 2 Witches, 22(?) Wizards, 9 WBs, rest Archers, full rage, CC of hogs usually
Hog does takes skill to execute against a maxed TH9 with a well design anti hog layout and decently high level heroes.
The problem with mass hogs is that it is a 3 star strategy, anything less should be considered a failure. OP is saying is that there is no more a reliable strategy to earn 3 stars against the stronger TH9. Sure it can still work against the weaker TH9 or bad design layout etc... With the new update the combination of unlurable heroes + double giant bombs instant killing hogs makes it far too risky to even attempt using hogs against the maxed Th9.
The best bet I will say is to switch to GoWiPe/GoWiWi variants. I personally have moderate success with Gowiwi + Valkyries + jump spell.
A member of my clan (TH9) dominates TH9 opponents using GoWiWi. What do you mean it "sucks" at TH9 against TH9 opponents?Quote:

Maybe you suck at using the strategy, but the strategy itself is sound.
hi iam also a th 9 and really pains hogs strat rarely works now... i also had this question in mind... and most of the reply sucks... they keep saying HOGS are still OK ♥♥♥ dude DO YOU EVEN CLASH??? GOWIWI GOWIPE th10 plays not for th 9 (yes it works but having their full potentials on a TH10 thats what i mean) really hard for a th9 now a days.. regarding on the troop set no one has the answer yet. try experimenting on your troops :) so hard to find answers specially on the trolls around us hahahahha!
I just posted the specific army composition that my TH9 teammate uses (GoWiWi) to crush strong TH9 bases as a TH9 himself. I'm not saying what he does is "easy," but it certainly works. Is this "the" answer? I don't know, but it is certainly "a" answer.Quote:

GoWiWi / GoWiPe /GOWiVa all works on TH9 with 220 army camps. It just more precise and less forgiving. You need to make adjustment on what you want to sacrifice. Should i use less wizards or breakers? or should I use 2 golems instead of 3? I find the new jump spell really useful for TH9 attacks as you require way less wb to get in to the core and get a easy 2 star.
Yes, supercell has changed the game so that getting 3 stars is no longer easy. You have work for it. The difference between good and strong clans is their ability to 3 stars TH10/TH9 bases. Everyone can 2 stars with gowiwi/gowipe/drags/loonions easily. Its the 3 stars that really counts now.
