hog wars

[littlefish]

TH9 cant do anything against hogs? Are you joking? An anti hog base with traps can so easily defeat hogs. So can an unlurable cc with a dragon or wizards

If they're hogging they (al)most certainly will lure the 'unlureable' CC. But ya Th 9 can make some decent antihog bases. I'm stuck at TH 8 so hogging does happen for sure. Only fun part on defense is when one wiz gets sticky in the CC and annihilates all those hogs LOL.

TH9 anti-hog base with powerful CC troops should be able to hold off most Hog attackers. TH8s can and will get flattened by just about any army. The predominant base style for Clan Wars is an anti-hog base so using hogs is almost suicidal.

Using a hog army in clan wars is not suicidal, because you get 24-48 hours to scout the opposition. If they are running a well designed anti-hog base, you go after someone else. It is now a whole different ball game with early scouting and being able to watch the previous replays of your clanmates.

a max th 9 with a center cc can easily be 100% by 39 hogs... I know because our clan has a few and it was easily 100% with a lot of hogs left over...
the point is there's not a lot you can do against them until youre th10. a center cc can be lured with 5-10 hogs depending on how tough it is. and luring a hard cc makes you have to destroy a few defenses which is the key to attacking an anti hog base with hogs. destroy some d/lure on one side then hit up a few def/lure on another side, kill cc/heros swarm middle... then those breaks on both sides will allow hogs to go up to center rather than circle the base.
also spring placement when attacking as mentioned above isnt much help as the hogs aren't biting to the antihog base.... so big bombs? well at th9 2 of them can't kill a lv5 hog... you need a lv4 which is only available at th10 which would barely kill hogs if someone isn't paying attention or they are placed directly next to each other and blow up simultaneously. IMO 40 hogs are unstoppable as long as heros and cc are delt with.
there was a mid th9 in out other war. had 2 heros and wizards in cc. we were up by a lot so to prove a point I attacked with a strictly hog army 48 hogs plus 7 cc hogs, no heros and 5 heal spells. it was 100% with about 10-15 hogs left... which shouldn't happen with no attacking units... at least giants and golems are slow so using just one troop for a base won't work... hogs are the only unit in the game where you can mass up only on unit type and 100% a decent base

Who brings 40+ hogs? No one does, cc and heros need other troops to take them out.
