TH9 has:
- Another level of Tesla (87 DPS each)
- The fourth Tesla
That's insanely high DPS and only Golem to improve offensive DPS soak.
Is Pekka 4 needed for TH9?

Is Pekka 4 needed for TH9?
PEKKA 4&5 are the only TH10 double upgrades. Want no TH10 doubles? Move hogs 3 to TH7, unlock hogs at six. Move golem 3 to TH8, unlock at TH7. Move pekka 2 to TH7 and unlock at TH7. Get my point?
I use to think so, but then realized that majority of people using GoWiPe are lazy th9 attacker that throw gowipe at every war base they see, using it in majority of their attack. They are 2 staring (yes gowipe is a 2 star attack) giving pek 4 would just give these noobs more reason to use it in war. I think the technical side of goho, surgical hogs or golaloon is what deserves the the third star and is really how we determine 2 star attackers vs 3 star attackers, so I say leave it the way it is.
Only a golem to improve offensive DPS soak? What about the lvl 30 King you can get at TH9? Even if most people don't get lvl 30 Heroes until the end of TH9, a lvl 20 King and Queen should make up for having no Pekka upgrades at th9. Stop complaining, and get those lvl 10 Royals up!
The level 3 dragons were almost useless against th9 bases, nobody was using dragons anymore unless they were only going for 2 stars, which also wasn't easy to get. However, the pekkas are still more than capable of 3 starring a th9 base, even in the current conditions. If they would add the pekka 4 for th9, that might be too much for those bases, making the gowipe too powerful and the gowipe strategy overused due to it's effectiveness.
I think here is where the difference comes into play. GoWiPe for max TH9 vs TH9 is already a powerful army with a good 3 star potential. More powerful PEKKAs might just make that too overpowered and hard to deal with for the th9 bases.
