New trap: the portal trap!

This is just an idea for a trap so it'll be a short thread.....

*****Portal Trap: single tile hidden trap that affects all ground troops (including goelms, pekkas, and heroes) which when triggered will send that particular troop to a designated point within a specific radius selected by it's owner when the trap is set. (Only one troop will be affected)(radius of portal depends on level)

Appearance is a small swirling pool of dark energy on the ground

Level 1:
Cost per trap is 10,000 dark (max 2)
1st available at th 8 and 2nd at th10
Radius of portal teleport is 5 tiles
Rearm cost 250

Level 2:
Upgrade cost is 20000 dark
Radius 6 tiles
Rearm 350 dark

Level 3:
Upgrade cost is 30000 Dark
Radius 7 tiles
Rearm 450 dark

Cool idea? Share your opinions :)

Pretty OP I would say. One golem being transported could ruin an entire raid, and one trap shouldn't have the ability to shift the course of battle so greatly. That's why springs don't affect golems and pekka.

I could see how it might seem OP; but then again it's not killing the troop like a spring trap, it's just moving it to a different area of the map.

If a golem got moved way to the outskirts of the map, an attacker could still possibly take advantage of that because maybe it'd start targeting other defenses it hadn't got to yet, and if they still have witches or wizards they could just drop them behind it from there.

It's not so much about ruining a raid as it is making an attacker have to think quickly and adjust an attack plan.

But I could just stick a tesla next to the portal and distract the golem for a while. If you set this thing deep into your base, it would probably be too late to do anything else with the troop that gets teleported.

Too OP. Needs more details and balancing.

Crazy and insane idea.. Just stick to the Doom Knight...

Just throwing concepts out there as ideas pop into my head. The Doom Knight I spent alot more time putting details into.

If nothing else that's really all I'd want to see in clash

It could work. However, the trap should be randomized. It's OP to have a person choose where the troop is teleported to. Have it randomized to go to some random spaces X away from the trap, and I like it.

I guess that would make it a bit more balanced out..... but then again what if it randomly teleports a lvl 20 king or a lvl 5 pekka right next to the townhall?

Gotta remember that with this trap, any troop could be teleported..... meaning it could be a golem or just a barb... and it will always be just one troop.

I think being able to control where it goes is the only way for it to work in the defenders favor.

I already added a limit on the distance
