Is the Surgical Hog Attack Only for Elite Clans or Can Anyone Do It?

I'll preface this by saying I hope the answer is the latter...

If you're part of a war clan you're probably aware of the Surgical Hog attacks being used by Reddit Troopers, Clashheads, Clashnerds, Exclusive Empire & all the other top CW Clans at the moment. However unusually for top Clan War attacks there are very few (zero?) practical, YouTube explanations of how to execute this attack yourself. That means it is either too complicated for 99% of us to learn or the 1% that knows how are hoarding it for themselves.

Curious to find out which, I sat down and made a guide which will hopefully shed some light on this dominant but mysterious attack. I'd love to know if you guys think this is achievable for the masses....

Happy clashing!!

I think you know the answer. Most wars we face people do gowiwi, or laloon attacks. Little do people know of more effective war strategies like goho, cb, shattered, surgical hogs. Unless we get a good matchup :)

Before I was a th10 I always used loons in conjunction with hogs and a few troops to kill the cc and archer queen. Once you get the hang of it, it is a very easy strategy. Now as a th10, th9's are too easy and are almost all a garunteed three star. Use a few golems witches and wizards and then the rest hogs and it's an easy three stars. Practice and preparation is key, good luck!

He's not asking how to do the attack, he put a video of doing the attack....he's asking if you think people could learn these war strategies. And you shouldn't brag about hitting th9s being th10.

Check "The Hulk Files" youtube. It is decent at walking thru the strats with multiple vids on different bases. Very useful.

On topic:
Nice of you to make this video for people :thumbsup:
I'm sure it will help out quite a few players which previously had no knowledge of, or guidance to use this strategy.

Gave ya a like and subbed.

I'm going out on a limb and guessing it's because it's a rather straightforward strategy that's strongly reminiscent of both Lavloon-style attacks, where you drop calculated squads of loons to overwhelm defences, and, of course, the GoHog strat. There are so many videos out there already which use these principles that the YouTubers might not think of Surgical Hog as being unique enough to warrant its own series of videos.

To answer your question, though, yes. If you can GoHog, you can Surgical. I've heard of it being used with screening giants too, but that would absolutely depend on the spread of defences.

Thanks that's an interesting take. I certainly agree it is similar in execution to GoLava's rotational deployment and the army composition is virtually identical to HoGoWiWi but being someone with a good deal of experience with both I'm fairly certain that Surgical Hogs deserve their own guide. In fact with more bases moving to prevent Lavaloon strategies, if I were a betting man I'd say that in a month or two this attack will everywhere.
