Dragons take too much elixer
need a nice strategy
I use this strategy in war. It still uses three dragons, but otherwise nothing really expensive.
Army Camp (200 space)
20 Hog Riders
3 Dragons
6 Wizards
11 Archers
1 Giant
Clan Castle (20-25 space)
1 Dragon
1 Wizard (if 25 space)
1 Archer (if 25 space)
Spell Factory (6 space)
2 healing spells
1 rage spell
When scouting, find a path for the hog riders to get to the Air Defenses. They NEED to destroy both Air Defenses. You will place the hog riders in two groups, one for each air defense. Also find a corner to lure the clan castle troops to.
Attacking
Place a giant to lure the clan castle troops (Watch out for Spring Traps!). Bring the CC troops to the corner and place two Dragons. Now, place your hog riders. Check for giant bombs! Use healing spells on the hog riders. Now, place your other two dragons, barbarian king, and some wizards. Watch your enemy's base get destroyed!
Something similar to drags is mass loons. Use 3 lightning to take out one ad, drop enough loons to take out the other ad while placing loons around to take out other defenses. Like surgical hogs but with loons. 30 arch to cc luring and cleaning and drag in your cc to tank the remaining ad for a few seconds while the loons get to it. A bit less expensive and not de draining, but should work just as well.
24 hogs 15 wizards 1giant 15 archers 3 healing hogs in cc
If you're doing attacks in war as a th7 there's no excuse not to use mass dragons. Warring isn't for loot, it's for the win.
GiBarch up some elixir.
Do drag raids.

Opt out of wars is you don't want to mass dragon.
But most TH7s can be 3 starred with 4 lvl 2 dragon the rest level 4 loons, 3 lightning and CC max loons.
30 loons
35 archers
15 barbs
Heal spells
Works great but dragons still the way to go
Mass dragons is the only good war attack strategy at TH 7. Sorry buddy.
Look at my attack strategy on page 1. That works perfectly fine and at least requires a bit of effort. Mass dragons: use lightning spells, place dragons, eat breakfast, come back, and have three stars. That doesn't seem like a lot of effort, does it?Quote:

Mass drags is the only viable strategy at th7. its simply too strong for a th7 to survive.
there isnt a th7 base that cant be 3 starred by drags
- Giants wizards wall breakers heal spells. CC max hogs vs key defensive areas.
- balloons with 1 max dragon in cc, bring 10 minions.
- balloons with max loons in cc, bring a dragon and 10-15 minions
- FIVE lvl 2 dragons, 3x zap, Max loons in CC. (Bring the other five just in case, but try to save them for the next attack. If you need a sixth, oh well, you'll live)
The people who think you need 10 (or 11) lvl 2 dragons at th7 are noobs. Find a better clan if necessary.
(Of course you better be good at these strategies before you use them in an actual war! Clan wars is NOT the place to try out new things and learn. Push in trophies if you need to find harder targets to practice vs)
Has anyone even noticed that the OP never said war attack, just attack?Quote:

The two others I was using at th7 other than mass drags in war was 3 lvl 2 dragons 5 archers and the rest balloons... Oh and a giant or hog to pull cc... 3 max zap spells to take out one ad. 3 stars every time if you do it right. Must have lvl 4 loons though, lvl 3 are too weak. Only works on other th7s though... Don't hit an 8 with it... Pull cc drop drags on it in a corner and the drop all your loons along two sides of base closest to other air defense. Bring max loons in CC. Never found a th7 this didn't work on.
The other attack I would use and you can take out weak to mid th8 with this attack was 5 dragons 5 archers and the rest lvl 2 hogs... Lvl 1 hogs don't work they're too weak. 3 heal spells for the spells... Pull cc drop dag or two or 3 to take it out in a corner... Drop hogs in so they take out all the air defense as quickly as possible. I would usually do a two finger drop so that the hogs would path right to core or wherever ads are. Heal hogs as necessary.
This attack takes out any th7 with ease and many low to mid range th8s... It is harder to master than the 3 drags and loon attack but once you get it, it will be the only attack you use... Makes you a better player for th8 too so there's that.
The idea that anyone would need or think to use dragons for farming is so foreign that, no, nobody thought that, except you. 😋Quote:

It works just fine. Almost any TH 7 can be 3 starred with my strategy. Try it yourself!Quote:

2 Dragons lvl 2

2 Barbarians lvl 4
26 Giants lvl 4
Spells-
2 Healing lvl 4
1 Rage lvl 4
(Dragons near clan castle)
(Giants & barbs attack air defense)
(Healers after air defense destroyed)
(Rage spell on dragons)
(Healing Spells as needed)
If not:
Troops-
2 Healers lvl 2
3 Barbarians lvl 4
17 Giants lvl 4
21 Wizards lvl 4
Spells-
2 Healing lvl 4
1 Rage lvl 4
(Wizards near clan castle)

is awesome for mediocre trophy pushes: https://forum.supercell.com/showthre...rategy-HoGiWiz
Never mentioned a war or raiding type composition, or I overlooked it, but try giant healer with hogs and CC bowlers. Similar to the GHBH that TH9 use often or used to before the updates. Been having great success with our 7's using that as an alternative to dragons.
4 Healers
12 Giants
10 Hogs
4-6 WBS
Rest Wiz
CC Bowlers (if you can get em)
All the best and good luck
(p.s. Drags are still king at TH7 and are a foundation to your learning curve)
