Hydra - Dark Troop

We all know about the hydra from Greek mythology. This troops unique feature would be it's increase in damage as it loses HP. So to speak "you cut off one head, another two takes its place." Until eventually it dies cause let's be honest this is clash of clans and an immortal troop would just suck for everyone. The details for this troop will be really tricky to get right, that's what I like about the idea, it must be very exact in order to be effective, kinda like witches and the skeleton quantity. The hydra can have a similar health to that of a few giants and a camp space of 16. It's damage may start at that of a lvl 5/6 wizard as the hydra spits acid on buildings and as it loses a 1/4 HP it gains 1/4 damage and so on until death. As she dies she can release toxic acid on nearby structures for additional damage. This kind of troop would be most effective at the back end of 'go-' attacks, especially for th9's cleaning up for a 3 star. Let's get into the technical aspects.

HP: 1960
Damage: 170
Camp space: 16
Ground and Air
Favourite Target: none
Damage style: multi target
Movement Speed: 12
Training cost: 200
Training time: 20 minutes

200 dark elixir just to clarify

QUESTION!
Is this the max damage?
If not how much will it increase?

It would start at around 170 and then as it loses 1/4 of its health it gains 1/4 of its starting damage so when it has 3/4 health it will have 5/4 damage stat. In this case 212.5 damage.

The idea is nice with all the proportionality and all..
No body would wanna heal this troop then? Or heal them for survival ... Bizarre troop..

I guess there are technical overlaps and I'm not one to say how they should go about this. I'm not sure what causality effect would come out of healing this troop in mass scenarios with millions of players. It would be very tactical and more technical in that sense.

I like ur idea and want to add on to it. It should gain a new head with each level.lvl one it targets two. Lvl 2 it targets three and so on.

I think 3 heads is enough for the hydra. But I do like the name and the creativity you have put into this. Maybe 170 could be maxed damage after fully increased at the first level, don't want it to be too OP, or supercell won't add it

Anyways.... I would like to vote for this troop is sounds really cool I hope it gets added into the game

It is a great idea , but as you said, there would be a lot of craziness to handle it as a troop. maybe instead of adding it as a troop we could have it as a hero! though if supercell doesn't seem content with a crazy hero like that, i would be happy to have it as a troop too!

I don't think supercell wants another hero in the game. I certainly don't. I would rather have new troops starting at townhall 6, 7, and 8. I think this troop would be a good fit for townhall 8
