So, after seeing some videos about surgical hogs, i cant still decide when to use it. Does it work on compact base? Or is it only for a base with many exposed single point defenses? I hope you can help me :) Thank you.

Go for Compact bases.
CC troops,queen,bombs are the main threat.
I use 36-38 hogs,2 healers,rest archers,5 heal spells and cc dragon.
So, youre saying that surgical deployment can be done on compact base as well? Thank you.Quote:

So the conclusion is?
I'm not the best at surgical yet, but I've found that surgical deployment is best for more spread out point defenses, like you see in a lot of anti-3 star bases, and the 2 or so big group of hogs deployment is better for really compact bases.
As a th9, compact bases are generally harder to surgically hog. Many defenses can target your hogs at once. I would recommend larger groups of hogs for compact bases.
The anti-3 style bases are good for surgical as previously mentioned. The power in surgical hogs is how fast the outside point defenses can be taken down. While a couple giants tank for the hogs, the hogs take down many defenses at once and cripple the base. The giants also help absorb damage so you can delay laying a heal until the hogs proceed deeper into the base too. Normally once the outside ring is destroyed, only xbows, teslas, splash damage and AD's are left. At which point most th9's have 2/3 heals in their back pocket to heal through the rest of the base.
Hope this helps.
So, 1-2 streams of hog is the best deployment for a compact base then? Thank you for answering boys, really helpful :)
both works, it depends on your kill squad. at the moment it's seems to be good to use 2 golem strategy after pulling clan castle out.
