Looking for some tips TH8

Looking for some attacking strategies.
My troops are
Barb 4
Archer 4
Giant 4
Goblin 4
Breaker 3
Balloon 4
Wizard 3
Healer 2
Dragon 1 (won't be 2 until next clan war)

Minion 1
Hog 1

Upgrade those dragons ASAP, and don't upgrade your townhall...like ever. TH8 should already have level 2 dragon going in, but since you don't, focus those. They are dominant war troop at th7-mid th8. If you want to have multiple good strategies, get dragons up to 3 first, then focus hogs and GoWiPe troops. Also, can't forget to work on farming troops as well, the loot gotta come from somewhere. :)

How do you know they rushed? Maybe they are new to TH8?

OP... Drags, hogs, wizards. Those are your next needed labs mate. Once your dragons are done, you'll be fine in wars for a while as that is all 95% of TH8 use anyways. But seriously work on upgrading your lab as it will make it easier for you in the long run with you being able to try different combos.

New to TH8 or not...if you don't have lvl2 dragons you rushed. That's a TH7 troop. How can you expect to three star TH8 war bases with level 4 ground troops?

Listen to what he is saying here, you screwed yourself, follow his advice to the letter, dragons will get you through 90% of TH8, as you become a dominant TH8 and climb up further you will need GoWiPe troops and Hogs to 3 star maxed TH8's and 2 star TH9's.

While it's true you need to get those dragons up to 3 you also need to get those barbs and archers up to 5 in order to farm. You will have some expensive upgrades to do on your defences, barracks, dark barracks etc so you can get your golems and Lvl 2 pekkas, Wizards will also have to go to 5, keep your king ticking over upgrades as well

Also wall breakers and Giants to 5 for farming, Giants while a poor substitute can be used before golems are available

Hogs don't 2 star...its a 1 star or 3 star attack. Me personally I have not seen much success with hoggers on TH9s unless its a really bad war base. 90% of the time they are failed one star jokes.

what levels are your spells?
