3 Star -- Attack Review -- GoWiPe Snipe -- TH9~ hits TH9-

Greetings clashers,

Goal of this thread to to share, as they come along, note worthy 3 stars of a specific attack type (in this case a GoWiPe Snipe @ TH9). In reviewing each 3 star (one per post) we walk through the attack keys we think about for that style of attack and grade the attacker as even a 3 star can have errors. Right? Notables on this attack:

• Attacker: PacMan TH9~ (mid level)
• Defender: TH9- (entry level)
• Attack Style: GoWiPe Snipe (aka GoWiPeLoon, etc)
• War Date:01/05/2015
• Spells: Jump, Heal, Rage
• Mix (CC): 1 Gol, 5 Giants, 11 Wiz, 2 PEKKAs, 14 Loons, 1 Archer (2 Wt;1 Barb)

That said, without further ado, here is the 3 Star attack review:

feel free throwing lavaloonion lovers to me :D haha

Could you have sniped the west and north archer towers and the mortar and cannon where the main forces are deployed? The loons should have been able to tank all of those quite easily.

Isn't that what was done? West (9 o'clock) and north (12 o'clock) is where the snipe loons came from at end. Plus we did snipe the mortar at 4 o'clock (east'ish) at the start.

Guess I am confused by your comment.

Yes I am asking why he didn't snipe it at the beginning. Why wait?

In theory, the GoWiPe Snipe is built on the concept of distracting the flank (edges) with a sustain / high health army in mid (PEKKAs etc) so that a weaker more agile group (loons/hogs) can knock out MORE defenses that would of otherwise harmed them. Granted you could go early but then some of the defenses that would be shooting mid (distracted) would shoot the snipers reducing their impact.

That is why (in theory).
