Dealing with CC troops at TH9!

Hey there,

Since TH7 I've always used a lightning to take out CC troops, and it worked just fine. But recently there have been a few incidents with CC troops where the lightning spell failed. So I know there are many other ways to deal with CC troops, such as barbs, witchez and wiz etc. but my question is: What is the best way to deal with enemy CC troops at TH9?

Thanks.

I use balloonion so I prefer havin the extra spell slot for heal or rage. I love getting the enemy troops (wiz, archer or witch cause they are the ones that ruin my attacks) bunched up, then floating a balloon over them. Takes a bit of practice, but wipes out archers, witches, wizards lvl 5, and does 90% damage to lvl 6 wizards when the balloon pops and smashes them.

If theres a dragon in there, i have to use minions out in the corner, and they have to be spread apart so the splash damage doesnt hurt.

Hope this helps. Clash on.

And how would you destroy CC troops while using GoWiPe, because that's the strategy I mostly use in wars :)

I use gowiwi, gowipe, gowiwipe in war. I bring two rage, a jump, and a lightning. My philosophy with these compositions is that the enemy troops will help draw in your troops (and heroes if they are in lala land) towards the middle, so why waste them right away? The lightning is for enemy witches because they can kill your heroes. Other than that your wizards and clan castle (witches or wizards are my pref) under rage will destroy whatever comes out of the enemy cc (even dragons).

I'm not an expert in the gowiwhatevers but I normally end up with 2 stars.

Don't worry about the troops at first, but be sure to have wiz following up your golems. Use their cc troops to draw in your wiz and pekkas into the center of the base. It does take practice and timing. I have tried to lure with gowipe and it just does not work very well. Good Luck!

Throw a witch or 2 in there. The skeletons keep them occupied while wizzies take em out.

Yeah I did that aswell for sometime using GoWiPe, but most of the times the enemy CC had wizards in it, which just demolished my pekka because 1 lightning can't take wizards lvl 5+ out in one time. So do you know a good alternative? :)

When you do this, do you lure them out first, or do you also use them as lure to get your troops to the center?

Make sure your wiz or cc are hot on the tails of the pekka/golem.

If you dont want to try this, bring 3 hogs to lure the cc out, bring them to a corner, and bash them over the head.

It depends on where they place CC on the map. if it's an off center CC which most people who don't want CC used to pull troops to core will do it works really well .

Like someone else said it is a matter of timing the deployment to where golems tank/pekkas follow to core and wizards/witches hot on their tails to take out cc troops.

If goal is just the 2 star you can lure and kill. and use heroes to pull troops corewards. Plenty of time for the 2 star.

Yeah I think that it'll work if I just practice enough!
