Nurf Hogs already!

[TullSadum]

I know others get annoyed by this request but I do think hogs ruin clan wars. With level 5 hogs it is easy to 3 star another th9 with a tiny bit of thought. You can take a minute to lure and kill queen, king and CC and often take out a couple of big bombs at the same time and then still 3 star with pretty much spamming. (well I can) Other troop combos take much more thought and planning and it is much more exciting for the war.

nah! put a little more thought into your base design, my TH9 gets visited a lot, really a lot by hogs, always L5. They usually come away with one star (2 if I've got my TH out) but only rarely with three. That's in normal game. In CW my base is left untouched, only recently was a first attempt with 34 hogs L5 + 4 heal spells and everything else all out
...all he got was one star at 61%.
Having been on the recieving end of L5 hogs, I really do not want to see them nerfed when I finally get them myself (I'm currently only 20k dex short, they're my next upgrade although I'm only barching for now).
Especially as they were nerfed twice before and everytime I was just short of getting to that specific lvl then. ;D

Stop complaining, start rolling hogs. Problem solved.

Nice PM you got there...

My first answer on this topic: "Hogs have been nerfed twice already, they won't be nerfed again.

Deal with it.

Don't complain about others using hogs on your base to get your loot!
Use them yourself or go and play Hay Day..."

Your answer on it in a PM: "seriously? first of all, don't tell me what to do...
secondly use them yourself and play hay day? right... I'd prefer better heroes
thirdly, there's a lot more chance you will play hay day, not me

fool"

If you don't have the balls to at least reply to me with such an answer here on the thread, then you don't need to be here, to be honest.

Like someone on this thread already said, you are an idiot. Really.

Hooooooog ridaaaaa

Seriously tho is it even worth maxing TH9? Or just get xbows up, AQ a few other things then preme to th10?

It's sad how bad the arguments are for both sides. But especially the side against a hog nerf. Seriously, if you are going to argue that hogs are fine (and there are certainly points you can bring up to defend this), don't use these stupid arguments with faulty logic:

1. "They were nerfed twice already. Deal with it." This logic is stupid as hell. It doesn't matter what the unit was like in the past. If the previous nerfs were a dark elixir cost increase by 1 and an increase in training time by 1 second, would this argument hold? No, of course not. What matters is the state of the troop right now.

2. "Use them yourself." So if supercell released a spell with a 30 minute train time and 2,000 dark elixir that instantly flattened a base if used on the exact center tile, would you still just say "use it yourself?" Hopefully not, as this fixes nothing and just perpetuates the imbalance. Also, stop assuming that anyone who wants to nerf hogs doesn't already use them himself. I use them all the time. Still doesn't change the fact that they are overpowered.

3. "You got destroyed by hogs. Move on." Similar to the case above. If this mindset were employed nothing would ever be fixed and we might as well give hogs 100000 hitpoints.

TL;DR come up with better arguments than "deal with it," "they were already nerfed," and "use them yourself"

That's all for my rant. Now someone can tell me that there is not an imbalance when we have multitudes of bases th9 and below designed specifically around a single unit because you are screwed otherwise.

What's the number one strategy used in CW battles by TH 9's vs. other TH 9 or TH 10 with improper IT placement and/or overall rushed defenses? Exactly, it's BARCH!

/end of sarcasm

Seriously now, you can't see there's just one troop combo used in battles? I for one, like GodII I'm fed up with the same pattern of layout designed specifically for combating them.

Now give me a break with all that ♥♥♥♥ "do it yourself!". Same thing and attitude goes with zapping the DE storage or even better ghosting.

[Kaijun]

Build a better base with better trap placement and you will do much better against them.

chill out guys lol

Hogs are OP-And people who say "Just use them yourself, stop whining! N00b." are EXTREMELY annoying.
You shouldn't have to specialise your base to defend against ONE troop-A good base should basically be non-prem and a good design. The fact that you can flatten any TH9 or below just by using an overpowered unit is unacceptable in a game. This is because it removes the necessity for skill and replace skill with GEMS.
And this reason is unfortunately why hogs are not getting the nerf they need to balance the game. Supercell has transformed a game that is play for free to pay to play. Spend a couple gems on DE to buy hog riders and have tons of fun ruining bases. Just use ringus on TH9 and hope the hog attackers are as stupid as they are pushovers and money wasters.
Ringus has worked excellently for me and I enjoy watching replays of low-strategy-skill players wasting their gems on my hog ring. And if someone hog attacks you, load up a nice GoWiWi and revenge the **** out of them.
