I will make surely do some fail attacks as I get them. As of now the strategy had been working quite well for me. I will also do some fail and clean videos here to help. I have a few fail and clean videos waiting to be done right now. Thank you again for the input and always good luck out there. If you have other idea I am always open and always respond on the channel as well.Quote:

Looking forward to more great videos.
PS, Plz just ignore the haters. They are a small minority of the community but they are surely loud. Its the same haters, idiots, and forum waana be moderators (dude your never going to be a moderator. give it up). They remind me of the immature's you find on global lol
There's a large difference between "haters" and people like lunaticfringe and myself who see inefficiencies on strategies that work on not maxed based and know there are safer ways to take on maxed TH8s, because this strategy doesn't understand the concept of minimizing dps in while maximizing dps out (thus the fallacious claims that more hogs attacking at once under no heal spells, meaning taking dps and dying, is better than "losing" dps while the whole group is under a heal spell thus no hog dies). There are subtle differences between th8 and th9 hog attacks and this video is going more towards a th9 style attack which isn't optimized for th8s.Quote:

I thought I would just share it with the community now. I have lots of more replays to share and more training videos. You can count on more great content at both TH8 and TH9 from me. The channel has over 150 videos of my attacks in war. I'm always learning and sharing what i find. Keep up the good work.Quote:

Once again I appreciate and I've subscribed to your channel!
Lol, we can definitely tell the multiple TH levels since it's a TH9 optimized attack :PQuote:

My guys at th8 are all learning hogs, they'd all been doing drags for over a year so hogs and cc kills are a huge change. While I can kill a drag with a few barbs/arch and a few wiz, they failed about 50% (or more!) of the time just to get cc down. So you can forget getting them to understand tanking or how to path around gbs. The composition I have found the most successful uses witches in cc and saves poison for King/skellys. Almost always surgical (no giants tho) or 2 finger drops. Your strategy is great and makes a lot of sense but at this point with our th8s they are wrecking it with witch cc kills. Also, I use King to tank my initial drop so it's very similar to yours but with 2 less tanks.
Very much looking king forward to your upcoming th8 videos, they are needed for the community since not everyone is th9 or puts in the time to watch vids and get better.
If they can't kill the CC, just have them poison the CC and use the king to tank the CC and use it with wizards. Witches are way too many troop spaces for dealing with the CC when they don't even kill a dragon/loon.Quote:

As long as they drop King in front after the kill and start hogs from that direction the wiz/witch stay alive and go into cleanup mode immediately. Still have room for 35 hogs so don't think witches are too much space for almost 100% cc kill rate when it was seriously less than half the time. Also, since they are sloppy with their hogs and really sloppy with heals, the poison has saved many 3 stars by keeping the king from killing the last hogs since they will lose a good portion throughout the raid. These are guys with families and jobs so it has been a struggle just to get them to watch their own replays let alone one of mine or another guy who consistently 3 stars. The witch cc has been huge, it's pretty much guaranteed that we will get all th8s wiped and usually send our top 8s at some th9s.Quote:

The issue noobs have is they'll blow the king's ability when the dragon isn't poisoned and the wizards will miss and never actually kill him. If they don't need to use 25 troop spaces on witches (which are useless on dragons!) and just use the king to tank it instead, you'll have another 5 hogs at the back end and you'll be that much better off.Quote:
