HoGoWipe

Looking for some help with this strategy. Any guides that people know of? I'm a th9, lvl 108 with max th9 troops/spells except hound and valk(does it go to 4 at th9?). I am very comfortable with GoWiPe and GoWiWipe (personal favourite) as well as HoLoWiWi. I'm interested in increasing my number of 3 star war raids and feel like the Hogs, or Loons, cleaning up could be the answer.

Any people familiar that could offer advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks.

This is actually my most preferred strategy as a TH8 for 3-starring other TH8s.

I've been using this ever since I unlocked golems and I've always preferred it to standard GoWiPe.

Anyway, here's the comp I use as a TH8 :

- 5-8 hogs
- 1 golem
- 2 pekka
- 8-10 WB (enough to get your golem, pekkas, and BK to core/TH)
- Rest wiz, arch, and luring units.
- CC filled with hogs.

The strategy goes like this :

1. Lure the CC with whatever you need (be it baloons, barbs, giant, hog, etc.)
2. Kill the CC.
3. Start your standard GoWiPe and aim for the core with your golem, pekka, and BK (backed by wizards).
4. Release your hogs at a strategic point once most of the defenses are focused on your GoWiPe units.
5. Drop archers/wiz around the base to help clear up remaining buildings.

You want to release your hogs where you know they'll take out priority single target defenses (especially teslas!). You want to take out the single target defenses because those are most effective against your golem/pekkas/BK. Also, you want to release them at spot where they won't get taken out by giant bombs. Usually I'll release them roughly 90 degrees from where I released my GoWiPe army. For example, if I dropped my GoWiPe on the SE side, then I'd release my hogs somewhere along the NE or SW sides of the base. This is so that they can quickly take down the defenses that are focused on your golem/pekkas/BK.

As a TH8, I take 2 heals and 1 rage. The heals keep my hogs going, and the rage is to rage the golem/pekkas/BK into the core.

As a TH9, you have two options -

1. Take an extra pekka and drop a hog or two.
2. Just take more hogs!

If you take an extra pekka, I'd opt for a 2nd rage spell. If you take extra hogs, I'd opt for a 3rd heal spell.

Strategy would basically be the same.

Good luck!
