TH Outside with 4 Teslas

[Erighan]

I love when people do this. Follow theses steps:

1. Drop 1 barb by th.
2. Snipe if no traps. If trapped proceed to step 3.
3. Drop 1 barb at a time triggering all traps around th and base.
4. Drop 1 minion to trigger air bombs.
5. Lure hero's and kill them.
6. Take any and all available loot from collectors.
7. Zap their DE
8. Lure CC troops and kill them
9. Leave at 39%, destroy the whole base or continue with th snipe.
10. Laugh

I don't like to zap de but this one of the rare instances I do it, the other being a revenge zap if I have no chance of beating an opponent

The purpose is to waste TH sniper's troops and possibly (very unlikely) gain some free trophies. This is why you ALWAYS bring lightening spells when TH sniping so that you can punish these trolls by zapping their DE. Don't forget to clean up their CC troops on your way out. And don't give them a free shield if possible.

And remember to kill the heroes and leave at 39%

I guess it staggers the rest of your army from getting any further then the town hall?

This is exactly it.

And also, you may earn a few trophies from snipers who didn't bring a full army.

People mainly do this to prevent a attack on their base. If you lose say 40 troops that might prevent you from further attacking because you do not have a full army.

Haha this is awesome! I'll do this next time I find one of these trolls.

Usually if I drop an archer to snipe a TH and the teslas/traps pop-up I'll finish off the TH then 3 star the rest of the base. Etiquette amongst farmers I suppose, but if you don't have all that ♥♥♥♥ by your exposed TH then I'll just snipe it and surrender, take my one star and move on. If they wanna make that difficult then they deserve the 3 star loss for being an idiot.

I just love it when they put all their traps there, too. Wonder if they like losing 50k over a few barbs.

[zhenyangli]

Lol I do it sometimes just to get my trophy up. And I am too lazy to switch my base to trophy push design. So I usually just put my tesla outside hope someone drop 5 archers and lose...

[Gunkar]

That makes no sense though. Several people have said that they will go all out on trapped bases, and many times people are genuinely snipers, so there's no need to stop them anyway.

Edit: I also took down a TH trapped with a giant bomb + 4 teslas with 16 barbs, 16 archers.

yes... but some goes and cooking is not done because usually sniping with 30 barb-30 arch is way enough for most base...

so it's free cups for the trapper...
then sometimes... people will snipe and go anyway for the loot when there is a lot.... not everyone snipe just for fun.. they have an army ready for penetrating strong base... then.. at that time. it's just a slowing down process to surprise the ennemy.. not always efficient... but sometimes it's just enough for the attacker to lose a strongh hit right at the beginning of the atk... that could make the difference between one star and two star.. or 200k ressources lost against 150k
