People are making polls about the dumpest troop, the best troop... Now I'll make one about the most useful troop in battles, CWs, raids, farms...

archers for me.
imo there is not ONE most useful troop as they all have their pros and cons and normally need to be combined with other troops to be useful.
I love hogs and use them often, but no, imo they are definitely not even close to the most useful troop. Can you you use them on defense (in cc) effectively? No, so there is half of their usefulness gone right there. Also with the GiB buff the hogs lost a lot of their usefulness in raids.
Over all on attack I would say giant is by far the most useful troop, followed by the archer. Archer is also good on defense while the giant is not unless combined with wiz or archers (yes, I love putting one giant and the rest attack troops in my cc as I think it works great).
I voted giant.
Different troops for different situations.
In attack, theres loot raiding and within that theres so many different scenarios! Elixir and gold raids, i use different troops as compared to de raiding. Storage raiding needs different troops too. Raiding for trophies require different troops too.
The only way i can see 'the most useful troop' will b to look at my history of troops used and requested and i thnk that will b archers.
Why archers?Quote:

archers are useless to farm , dragons for clan wars, baloons to push
Dragons with rage spells I suppose?Quote:

Dragons... they're the only troop that can work solo
Meh, they must be in group. Alone they're useless.Quote:

Giants with various other troops in support are by far the best combos in the game up until later TH9-10 stages... and even then they can cause damage and 3* bases when used well. They are damage soakers and are imo the pillar on which most clashers built their bases.
I cannot think of any situation where archers would be useless.
When there are 3 high-leveled mortars close to each other?Quote:

Personally archers. Ranged, fast to train and practically essential in all types of casual armies.
I am one of very few to vote the king, so allow me to explainn my reasoning.
1: He's is one of 2 troops on the game that dont die. so you pay that one cst and use him as much as you prefer.
2: He's the ONLY troop on the game that actually full on helps other troops via the rage spell).
3:He is tough like a giant but strong like a P.E.K.K.A.
4: You get the king before you can get the queen so you get more use of the king.
5: he is the only troop besides the queen that is able to also defend your base without being donated.
6: he spawns another troop (barbs) once his ability is unlocked.
I would agree but he has to heal between fights which really cuts down on his utility, especially if you are barchingQuote:

But he doesnt have to be paid for. So you could use him once every few battles. and assuming you have other troops, he might not always even get hurt. meaning he is there qucker than an archer or bar (barch)Quote:

Here is why:
1. When I reflect on my troop usage whether I am attacking or farming I always have some. I cant say that about any other troop.
2. CC I use 2-3 wiz and archers, it makes it much harder to lure the Clan castle troops out. Alot of people see the archers and spam troops only to be wasted by the wiz.
For me it's a tie between archers and wizards. Archers are the backbone of farming whole wizards are the same for wars and trophies with a ground based attack. All your big ground attacks use wizards with various other troops. Archers for BARCHing of course. Both equally important just different usage scenarios. Force me to pick and it's archers. They can be subbed for wizards in a pinch but wizards are nearly as viable for farming.
Hello I'm not agree about hog from last update hogs become unuseful becaus die too fast when they step on two giant bombs in this days ppl have build it more base ( anti-hog design ) so now most useful troops remain archs and giants like before.
Balloon, Witch and Healer aren't very popular I see...
minion seems extremely useful to me... cheap for farming and a very good cleanup in troph pushing... not too good in cc though... wiz or valk for the cc ;)
If I could have one troop to instantly train for free, it would definitely be hogs. Just check for giant bombs and anything under th10 or even some th10s will fall to their knees as the bacon tramples the base.
