Hog riders are useless now.

Why do you want him to show you proof when he basically is saying that the proof he is going to show you is in the form of youtube vids.

Instead of asking for days for him to show you, you could have done a 10 sec search and found the proof yourself.

Or better yet, try it. It is true btw, many of the latest 3 star strats we've been encountering in wars vs th9/th10s include 12-15 hogs mixed in with other troops. I've been having more success against other th10s with hogowiwi for example than with gowipe or gowiwi.

Strange that people still complain about hogs being useless... My level 4 hogs 3 start most of the TH9's I attack in war.

When I don't its because I've screwed up somewhere.

This. However, it's not just a mass hog attack. It's usually a GoHo, or Holo. The skull traps aren't nearly as bad as a high level queen, good double giant bomb placement on the defender's part, or the xmas updated building hitpoints.

I don't empathize with anyone complaining about not being able to drop a load of troops and just sit back and watch.

Not really impossible, but harder. I seen clan mate 3 star maxed th9 with pure hogs and even from enemies side. Right now holowiwi ballog or hogowiwi are surfacing more and more and can 3 star more often than pure hog attacks .

Wasn't trying to sound snobbish. I just didnt feel like making a detailed post about how the hogging and said you should try youtube to find evidence.

Notice I didn't say nerf because it is a pretty cool trap it's just when your hogs are balls deep into the enemy base and those traps open up the hogs all disappear rather quickly and no other troops are close enough to dispel them. Positive and negative feedback encouraged:)

Natural Selection my friend. The strong adapt and survive, the weak die. Adapt your strategy.

Other 3 stars High level TH9 with Hogowiwi . Gowiwi itself killed the core . Have 5 hogs in the back is a guarantee 3 stars.

Hogs are great when combined with other troops.

WHERES THE EASY BUTTON!?!?!? I should be able to mindlessly get 3 stars 100% of the time with zero effort!!!!!1
