How can I post a Ripley here?
and more important is EXTREMELY HELP A LOT LURE THE CASTLE IN WAR.

My troops was:
12 Giants lv6
12 Wiz lv5
6 Valkis MAXED
4 Healers
4 WB
1 Golem MAXED in Castle
Spells
4x EQ, 2 Rage

What kinda of troops I need to LURE without losing atacck power in Valkiria Tornado.

Dragons aren't what I really worry about. All archers is actually a bigger problem or loons.

Though a poison really slows down loons.

What I have been playing with is 1 haste and like 3 loons and maybe a hog rider and if needed a giant to distract. I can then use my healer to pull them into a corner and use a valk/healer trick to eliminate. You have to pay attention to how you deploy your giants after but its pretty effective - or if you have a few archers to spare.

A golem leading the charge with the clan castle on the opposite side of your attack also works well but then you need to swap out 4 wiz for 2 valks or have a tight funnel. Valks now charge ahead again and a concentrated 8 can deal with bunched up ranged units (sprinkle rage on top)


I am luring again because low hp units are viable again. I can't obliterate them with a poison spell. But I think I am getting a rhythm again. The 3-4 loons and haste can often take out 2 maybe 3 defenses if your lucky and can take advantage of a rather small window in AD coverage due to the speed increase.



But I am sort of readjusting my tactics with quad healer after the update. Will let you know more when I figure it out ;)

My TH8 GoWiVaPe/GoVizPe army composition
Just wanted to share this. A very strong th8 army composition that can 3s almost any th8 base design depending on how you manage your troops well.

I would like to thank you Nio for this Awesome Guide and ZeNeLLiE for videos

My last Anniversary video. I have more content but feel for the most part its going to be dated soon. Ironically this is one of the first compositions I used but one of the last to get a how-to video. Only composition with no videos that I use frequently is GoWiVa.


Hopefully you'll see some Halloween theme stuff soon!

FYI: 1skander your video reminded me of some nuances in my attack. Been practicing again with GoViz at Th8 and hoping to make it more regular in my war strategies again.

My last war attack, felt like my Queen was finally high enough to attempt a queen walk and the base looked descent for it. Finished with surgical hogs. Hope you like it, felt very satisfying.

That is so nice, I have been wanting to try something like that for so long but anytime I try queen walk I fail. Looked like you kept yours short and sweet, might have to try that out some time again.

Just wondering if anyone is roaming at the moment- would love some assistance in my clan with first rate Valk raiders

Nio, Hugo, Fang, Valkmaster, I'm Clouds and I hope learn a lot from you.

So I may be updating some of my strategy sections.



The most overdue would be including HoVaLo. Powerful for Th8 and 9. It combines the strengths of Hogs and loons with Valkyrie. More complex but very powerful vs the right bases.




Then I am working with Hafid on a brand new strategy.


Using Healers on Valkryie and then surgical hogs to keep said healers/valks alive.

8 Valks
2 Healers
12 Hogs
10 Wizards (may swap out for more hogs)
8 wb
Lure/Kill Squad units

2 Heal/1 Rage

Will update was I gain skills

^^

So on that comp. Hafid, Hugo, and I are working on that and having promising results.



With my Th8 mini what I have been doing is finding a Th8 that has the typical tight triangle. I then deploy my Valkyrie on the edge of that triangle and get them moving towards the gap. This usually means I use a few wizards. Once the Valkyrie break off on a jog I deploy my BK to keep the defenses occupied where said wizards were used and deploy a few more to take out some outside defenses.


As my Valkyrie jog I will deploy a few more Wizards and wb to create an opening at the gap.

I will then deploy my hogs on the edge of that AD triangle and use them surgically where the two points of my attack are. I now bring an extra giant and use him for additional tanking as need.

If the second AD near the Valkyrie is in a good position I will deploy part of my hogs on that side of the base as the primary defense become occupied.


Its like a reverse hogging almost. The Valkyrie weaken the outside of the base along with my BK and wizards. Hogs come in surgically but sweep through the guts of the base primarily (I often end up using a rage to help control the temp of the attack).

Given the reverse sort of deployment the base is usually pretty mauled by the time the hogs have done their work and clean up goes pretty quick.


However, I am finding errors in AI calculations are often fatal. I will keep you posted.
