Change to Lava Hounds. Supercell an idea for you

At max level (3) he dies within seconds. Believe or not, Dragons last longer. At this point he us useless and a waste of Dark Elixir. Not even worth considering him in attack strategy.

Not to mention that pathetic 14 DPS.

If the lava hound likes "fireworks" I don't understand why they take full damage from air defenses. They should take 50% or lower damage from air defense. Just an alternative that might help TH9 players too.

I totally agreed with you:D

The troop just got released, I'am pretty sure within a couple of months or so we might expect some tweaking from Supercell to lava hounds.
Hogs were also tweaked after their initial release i.e now they go for defenses rather than other buildings.
Games like these are built around the community response and you've put up a valid point for hounds. Right now we can take this troop as just a test subject which IMO will see a change in near future.

Makes sense:)

I made lv1 hounds work in similar strat to the one in galadons vids. Got 2* on 2 different th10 bases.
Im no expert on balloon or air based attacks either.
How good do they need to be? Shouldn't make it easy to 3* th10s.

bro look at this

This is is supposed to be an air golem right so Lets look at the Golem.
What hurts golems the most? Xbows? Giant bombs? None of the other weapons do real damage except for single target infernos.

How about the Hound? Seeking air mines? Yes. Air d? yes. Single target infernos? Yes. And there are how many seeking air mines? how many air D? Plus the infernos. The golem has to worry about 2 infernos and thats it while the hound has 10 times as many things to worry about.

Now how to make this fair and make a bit of sense shouldn't the Lava Hound be invincible to the Infernos? I mean it is a LAVA hound. Why would fire hurt fire? It is made out of lava so if anything it should gain health from an inferno. This would make it a bit more fair but even still it would not be anywhere near as good as a golem.
