Im having hard time understanding when is it beneficial to lure enemy cc troops vs when to charge balls out when using GoWi attacks during clan wars. I always lure, and in the end get worse results than those who dont. When i do charge, how do i deal with cc troops? I know lightning spell dont do much vs wizards.
What I do is send in the golems so the clan target them then I drop some wizards behind them and a heal or a rage. Keep the golems alive and the clan castle will be taken care of. Saves a lot of time.
I think that if the CC is easy to lure, then you should. I know that a few times when using a gowipe attack, I have run into lv4 dragons in the clan castle and it's totally ruined my attack.
If it's not an easy lure, than use your golems as a meat shield as you rage your wizards...which should eliminate the CC troops.
Just my 2 cents...
I don't lure much with GoWi* because most of the time it cost me too much troop.
The key is to attack from the other side of the CC and make sure your golems won't be alone getting the hit. You must make sure that under rage, your wiz will target the CC troops.
My best strategy is to rage in front of my golems, jump, and freeze the enemy castle once in range of my wiz. 3 spells but after than, I usually have 2 stars anyway.
One of my clan mates use the lightning + minions tactic. If the CC is only archers, wiz and witch. It works great. But can take up to a minute to get the CC all bunched together. If you do it right, the wiz will only have little life left that the minions will one shot finish.
I almost always lure if it is easy, or if I am doing something like a hog attack where luring is required.
That being said one of the attacks that really does not need a lure is a witch based attack. If you time it right the CC should be focused on the skellys while the wizards and other troops cut them down.
The CC troops can also be useful to pull your bigger troops and heroes towards the center of the base. Overall consider where the troops are likely to meet, when they will come out and which of your troops will be effected. Take a lightning or a rage if needed.
Luring troops is not easy as far as I have seen as you may lose lot of troops (Gowipe). But luring troops can be done easily in Gowipe by taking 20 archers. They help in two ways, one by killing cc and the other one by taking a star at times of trouble (lol). Use couple of hogs and lure out the cc troop to a corner. Send a gaint a bit far away from dem. When they start running for the gaint deploy your archers and a 2-3 wiz. Archers will be in front line to take the hit and wiz will take on the cc troop.

depend whats in their cc and how easy it is to lure it. I strongly favor valk over pekka so if their cc is mostly archer with a few wiz I will often not lure on purpose. valks wreck those. its good to rage and heal tho.

First of all, I don't know why you are GoWi-ing because GoWiPe is about 10x better. I personally go at it in clan wars without luring because it take more time. When you GoWiPe, let your golems take the full force of the cc troops for a second while they all bunch up, and then lightning spell them. That way, you won't have to waste a bunch of army camp space and wizards to take out the cc troops. Your heroes and remaining wizards can take out the cc troops while they are in the middle of the base.
3 or more wizards I lure, gather and kill with one valk. Archers only I can just ignore and let wiz kill.
Dragon I just ignore it. ;)
