"The Minion Lord is the ruthless ruler of the skies, whose appetite for Dark Elixir has caused it to grow to a giant size. It can attack enemy villages or guard your village"

1. I never like new hero ideas.
2. I like this one.

Get what I'm saying? Hopefully. :smirk:

- Splash Damage Aerial Hero
- Available at TH10 for a starting price of 80,000 D.E

How It Works
- The Minion Lord spits balls of D.E just like regular minions but in a cluster of about 10 at a time instead of 1 at a time
- Just like other Heros, the minion lord must regenerate health by sleeping before being used again
- A maximum of 2 Heros may be selected prior to battle by using the "Guard/Sleep" Toggle switch
- A maximum of 2 Heros may guard your village at one time. This may be altered on War Prep day or your every day "Guard/Sleep" Toggle

Offensive Strategies

Farming: - Use as support for loonian strategy without wasting spells
- Great ranged support paired with AQ
- Mass Minion / Archer / Barbarian attack (or any combination of the 3)

War: - LavaLoonian Attacks support
- GoLaLoon Support with BK
- Mass Dragon attacks

Defensive Strategies
- Activate ML and AQ to deter areal attacks
- Activate ML and BK as a GoWipe Protector
- Place near center of base to avoid an easy kill

FAQ
How is a Minion Hero any different than a Lava Hound?
- The Minion Lord has much less HP, doesnt have a favorite target, and can actually help lava hound attacks a lot with its special ability!

Do we really NEED another Hero?
- Aerial attacks start at TH7 and then die by TH10 and Air Sweepers have added to the high level aerial attack difficulty
SC has already attempted to bring back high level air attacks with the level 5 dragon but i don't think it worked very well..
This hero would undoubtably bring them back and add diversity to TH10 attack strategies

Why only 2/3 Heroes?
- While this topic is still up for discussion, I think 2 Heroes (especially when getting to high level) are strong enough. A Barbarian King, Archer Queen, and a couple of healers is all you need to 2 star. Imagine if you had a clean up hero along with them?

Wouldn't this Hero make the Barbarian King irrelevant?
- I don't think it would make the king irrelevant at all. For most war strategies like GoWiPe or GoWiWi the BK + AQ combination would still work best

All depends on the army you're working with
Lavaloon - AQ + ML
Gowipe - BK + AQ
Golaloon - BK + ML

Well Air Sweepers don't do damage to troops :facepalm: Also dragons aren't really used at TH10 when this troop is unlocked, so :facepalm: again.

Okay, so onto your idea -- I think it is interesting, but I'm not sure how it would effect strategies like laloonian, etc. I'm just worried these strats would become OP. Nice job on the thread though. :)

One thing. Lvl 40 minion, get 42 summoned minions. A bit OP. Besides that great job.

Thanks! Hope you like it better now that its a bit more complete
I think at TH10 a lot of these stategies are left behind, especially with the addition of the air sweepers
Im hoping this little guy can bring them back

8/24 - HP buff

HP buff to deal with seeking air mine damage

Very well written and good thread overall.
I would like to see an airial-Type hero in Clash some day, the minion seems very balanced. I also like the idea of limiting the amount of heros we can bring.
This could really support air raids, as intended.

My only concern is its speed. I know the other hero speeds are the same as the actual troop, but I believe 32 Movement Speed along with 200+DPS may be a bit too much to ask for when making a new hero. The ML will be able to destroy buildings a little too quickly, and move from place to place very fast to destroy even more buildings too quickly.

Anyhow, I like it. It's something I may want to see in the game, good luck with it.

Decreased Speed to lava hound speed and added speed increase to ability

Nice idea

Really like the idea of having an air hero. But I think seeking air mine should deal less damage to it.
