Where do you place your Skeleton Trap

Midway from the core so they have an effect before attackers hit the core. They'll slow down Pekka and giants for mortars and towers, they seem to LOVE bacon, and mess with archers and barbs. I'm finding them effective in their limited ways. And a darned nuisance in some attacks ...

My farming base has a high dps core to protect DE, so I put these traps near the core to distract enemy troops while they are destroyed by teslas etc.
My CW base has an antihog-ring with DGB, so I put these traps near DGB to quick finish survivors, if some hogs remain with minimum HP.

BTW anyone sure is welcome to give more suggestion and ideas.. even the setting were not both the same one is air and one is ground....a very clever one hehe I.m TH9 BTW....and already max the two to level3 already:o

I set mine to ground, so that they both align to the Archer Queen's outer range. When triggered, the attacking troops will go after the skeletons and they act as a temporary meat shield while the Archer Queen picks them apart. Also, I tried to make sure that they would not inadvertently lure troops closer to the core, especially on my war base (I found that a few bases I had attacked had them closer to the core and when triggered aided me in getting to the TH or Storages easier). Just a few thoughts so far...I am curious to see what others post here, especially when using as an air troop (I have noticed what a pain they are to Healers, especially if there are no other air troops deployed).

Great idea, I'll test and try to set it both now to AIR within the radius of my KING range coz some minion could get him out :cool:

For clanwars i have my Skeletons on air setting near the core of my base. They are a great distraction tool and drags are very common in war. Farming I just keep it outside. They dont have too much of an effect.

I only use them on air they get way OP on the ground by other troops

Watch this vid that explains my base and how i use traps
