The first hero is the Barbarian King - directly mirroring the first troop the Barbarian.
The second hero is the Archer Queen. Again mirroring the second troop, the Archer.
So, with simple logic our next hero should be something to do with the giants right?
Well, the next in line after a king or queen should be the Prince or princess, but princess giant doesn't really cut the mustard. Possibly the Giant Knight may work?
Anyway, I'm sure we can see where this would be going! Usual ability at level 5 where our Giant Knight summons 5 giants and heal part of his health.
BUT, this troop has to take along some of the aspects of what and where we use giants. Mainly used as tanks and defence destroyers, the Giant Knight would have a target preference of defense buildings. And instead of casting invisibility or rage as the two previous hero's do, let's make him invincible!
Now, to the stats:
At level 1
HP - 2200
DPS - 55
Attacks every 2 seconds (same as giant)
Movement speed - 12 (same as giant)
Preferred target - defences
At level 5
HP - 2400(this is a 10% increase, same as BK)
DPS - 59 (this is a 7% increase, again following the BK)
Same speed of attack and movement
Special ability:-
Summons 3 giants at your current giant level.
Also grants 5 seconds of invincibility and 1000 health
Remember, this guy is essentially a tank troop, perfect for mixing up gowipe attacks (who needs two Golems???)
Attack strategy:
He is a tank! Remember, don't activate his ability unless you think there are no spring traps in front of you. They won't hurt your hero, but your giants will fly!
Single shot inferno towers giving you trouble at the centre of the Base? Why not crumble the wars with some earthquake spells, then send in this guy with a few hogs. His ability is immune to the inferno effects!
Defense strategy:
Walls. Oh and more walls! Space out your defences so he has to walk far. This giant is no spring chicken. His low DPS isn't great for taking down walls, so make him walk along a path of bombs whilst being attacked by your single target defences.
So let me know if this has crossed your mind and what you saw differently? Maybe some stats? Or maybe you have a name for his ability? Just comment and we'll see what we can come up with together!
