Wizards or Archers?

My current clan war army composition is made up of 2 healers, 15 giants, 6 wall breakers, 9 barbarians (clan castle luring, trap checking), and the rest wizards. I'm at town hall 7, so I have 200 army space. My archers are lvl 4, and my wizards are lvl 3. What I'm wondering is if I should switch out my wizards for archers. I mainly use my wizards for taking out non-defensive buildings and the town hall (I'm doing a giant healer if you haven't noticed) Wizards do tons of damage, but are easily taken down by 3-4 hits from a tower. Archers are taken out in 1 hit, but you can overwhelm single target defenses with sheer numbers. However, mortars and wizard towers totally wreck archers. Should I use wizards or archers? Or maybe a mix of both? Keep in mind this is clan wars, so I don't care about time and elixer cost that much.

It's really up to you, I would upgrade those wizards in the lab ASAP. In Clan Wars I usually bring wizards along instead of archers, since they are generally more powerful and can take down buildings extremely fast. The Giant-Healer-Wiz strategy works very well because the giants act like meat shields while the wizards take out anything they can.

I agree with ^^^ when using archers the mortars can easily wipe them out while wizards are more tanky so if time and elixir are not concern I would definitely use wizards.

300th Post Yay

For me?
Wizards=clan wars
Archers=for looting resources

To be honest, I would switch to mass dragons. It works much better, IMO. On the down side, takes times and elixir. But, thats what I used and I usually 3 star, if not you always have a guaranteed 1 star or 2 star. Just bring 3 lightning spells to take one air defense or bring two rage and one heal.

Upgrade your wizards and use them instead.
