Compositions for th9s air attacks using Lava Hound

So from Chief pat's video we can guess that the new troop is like an air unit golem and it will occupy 30 army spaces.

So I already tries thinking about some new army comps to use this troop with.

Option #1 (the most obvious one)
2 Lava Hounds (60 army space)
8 dragons (160 army space)
6 maxed balloons (30 army space)

With this army comp you want to take 1 AD with 3 lightnings, 1 AD with a lava hound followed by your loons and then deploy the other lava hound before the dragons in the side with other 2 ADs, using rage as your 4th spell.

Option #2 (Air GoWiPe)
2 Lava Hounds (60 army space)
55 minions (110 army space)
4 dragons (80 army space)

Deployment similar to a GoWiPe - 2 Lava hounds separated followed by 15-20 minions to clean up surrounding buildings, then send the 4 dragons straight to the core followed by the rest of the minions.

Any other thoughts of new army compositions with the new dark troop?
Would love to hear your thoughts about those 2 army compositions I suggested above :D

This sounds good... so many strategies will change becuase of this.

This troop appears to be a SC fail.

BagLunch,

Why do you say that?

You are aware that you composed armies requiring 250 army camp space, right? I know that you can use the Clan Castle, but still. It doesn't add up either way.

How does it not add up? 220 troops space and 30 in the clan castle.

I also assume that it may or maynot be available to th9. it might be tho but seeing as how there's a higher level dark barrack it might be limited to th10 we'll see.

It's already confirmed that it's available for th9.

Can they tank? If so we may be able to sub golems for lavahounds in a gowipe.

It can definitely tank... just wont do much for grund xbow, cannons, and mortars and it will include the air defense... probably not a good idea to mix ground and air...

Based on my observations it can be used as an aerial gowipe of sorts with the hounds as tanks,minions as wizards, drags as pekkas.

Compared to a ground based attack where you release the golems first,I think it will differ with the hound it will be a matter of deploying it right before drags come into AD range as the hound goes straight for AD and drags destroy all buildings first in their path.
