Dark spell: destruction of inferno tower

It appears we have spells, traps, or troops to pretty much combat every building in the game, except inferno towers. Yes, heroes are supposed to be able to kill them, however, I have noticed the AI doesn't attack inferno towers when they are frozen. It's quite bizarre.

I think there should be a dark spell that does damage much like the earthquake to walls (x4 damage) to the inferno tower. It could be a very small 3 tile radius or something where it will do an exponential effect if you keep dropping the spell. That way you could legitimately kill an inferno tower, but it would have to take say 6 max spells in the DE spell.

There has to be something to combat the inferno (and not just freeze it), especially now that the single target is stronger. There is just too much firepower with max infernos, max xbows, max archer towers, etc. when you go to war. There needs to be a way to 3-star a maxed out base, and the only way to do so is an air attack, it seems like. It's just quite odd. Ground attackers would like some options!

I'd like a cooling spell that(in a radius) makes troops take half damage from infernos or just less damage from inferno towers

I wanted the first DE spell to be Dark Mist...like poison, only slowing down defenses as well, like a weaker version of freeze that would help TH8s and 9s go up against infernos.


I think the answer here may come in the form of a troop though...something that targets infernos, takes reduced damage from them, and attracts their fire (even pulling all the streams from an inferno set on multi). I see this as the level 7 or even 8 dark troop, though you probably wouldn't unlock it until TH10.

Really? I've never noticed a glitch in the AI that does that. Can you give me proof? Pictures? Videos?

I really don't think this is needed, as there is already freeze spells (which is truly more then sufficient to combat infernos), and also there's only two of them.

I could get you some pics, I don't record video. I will have to sift through some of our top replays in war. It literally just happened to our top attacker last war. The nearest target to attack was the inferno yet the Queen went after some archer tower that was southwest of the inferno while the inferno tower was frozen.

Now that I know frozen inferno's won't be targeted as often it does change my style of deployment, but nonetheless, it does affect gameplay.
