GiWiPe Th 8 Attack War Strategy

GiWiPe... What is this? Well this is the cheaper version of the attack strategy called GoWiPe (Golems, Wizards, And Pekkas), just instead of Golems were using Giants. This is an attack that I believe TH8s with out golems should use. What is needed in this attack is

-10 Giants
-8 Wall Breakers
-14 Wizards
-3 P.E.K.K.A
-3 Archers, Or 3 Barbarians (To Lure Enemy CC)
-2 Rage 1 Heal, Or Other Way Around
-If your using this for war make sure you have atleast 1 Witch in your CC to destroy your enemy CC troops

Now how would you approach this attack?
- Well, what you first have to do is try and lure the CC, like any attack i believe this should be your first step luring the CC. After you successfully do this, you drop your Giants, unlike GoWiPe you drop all 10 on one spot because well their Giants not Golems they don't have a similar HP range, right behind the Giants just drop some Wall Breakers behind them. Right after you deploy your Giants you spread out your Wizards (At most 8 or 9, save rest for the core) just to clear the buildings for the P.E.K.K.A's don't go stupid and go around the base. If your Giants are getting weak drop one healing spell on them and they should be fine.

How to work inside?
- Now that you broke the first layer of wall your job is to get to the inside. Your Giants are tanking and your Wizards are going around destroying building. Now make sure no splash defenses are around, and either just throw all the WB you got left, or just put 3 or 4 inside. Now that you got the core wide open throw your Barb King to tank for the rest of your Wizards and maybe your P.E.K.K.As, now you throw in your P.E.K.K.As and your Wizards. Try to make the core as wide open as possible, for your P.E.K.K.As just don't go cray, cray and sway off to another direction. Now that their working in the middle drop a well placed rage spell that would hit your Barb King, Wizards, and P.E.K.K.As make sure you try and get them all for as much damage as possible.

How to finish?
- Just sit back and watch, if your other rage, or healing spell is needed then just precisely drop it and hope for the best. This attack normally gets me a 2 star and sometimes a 3 star on some TH8s that aren't really that very good upgraded. If attacking a TH9 well, You may get a 1 star on a medium TH9, and maybe a 2 star on a premature TH9.

Results For Me :)

Drop two level 3 healers behind the giants and they will last a pretty long time. If giants stay around the outside edges then healers will usually avoid the ADs.

The Problem Is That There Is No Point For Healers... Thats What The Healing Spell In The Point Of The Raid Is To Get Into The Core Rage Spell Your King A Few Wizards And Your Pekka.. The Healers Are Just Gonna Take Up Troop Space For Other Troops Who Would Do Better On The Field.

Thing is, gowipe at TH 8 in wars will hardly ever get you 3 stars against other good town hall 8s. It will get you 2 stars every time but you want the 3 stars. Use hog attacks, or maybe even dragons.

Using Giants is harder to clear outside trash buildings, which affects pekkas, i don't reccomend using giwipe, instead use gowipe since the golems do a good job at protecting wizards for a good 30-45 seconds while wizard clear trash buildings, first layer defences, and even cc troops sometimes

Yes, th8's have a hard time getting 3 star GoWiPe, I experienced this first hand, however at th9, GoWiPe becomes a 3 star stragety when executed well, even in wars, so it's good practice. Dragons is hard to use at high th8 and hogs are a risk in wars so I would still reccomend th8 GoWiPe

Hogs are a risk yes, but if you know how to use them, you can get 3 stars most of the time unlike Gowipe.

I 3 star most of the time as a th8 with gowipe. Its only 2 stars if you don't know what you're doing.

Urgh! Those caps. >_>

Just getting to the core will only get you 2 stars. To get 3 stars is also necessary to clear the other defenses which are usually not in the core, but in the outside ring. Otherwise those defenses will eat up all the wizards from the flank of your army, which are often not protected by your tanky troops.

That's when the giant+healers become useful, they can operate independently, clearing 3~4 defenses around the outside ring while keeping them distracted as well.

And the healers could end up surviving until the end, contributing a lot towards achieving 3 stars by keeping remaining PEKKAs/Giants alive for much longer.

Yes golems make it easy to clear outside buildings, but that's not the only way to do so.

It's possible to clear outside buildings even with just pekkas, it only requires careful understanding of pekka's AI and proper timing when deploying troops.

For example:

I didn't even need the giants to help clear buildings to get the PEKKA inside.

Yes, it is a bit riskier (specially due to stupid skel traps :mad:) but it works quite well most of the time.
