    Cloak at random

    Hi thank you for your reply! It seems you might have missed something in my last paragraph "The special ability to fade in and out of site at random would need to be tweaked for balance (ie. 1-3 second on/off intervals) as would the unit's base hitpoints. "

    The cloaking ability is not triggered by when she attacks (although you're right, if it was she may need a reduction in health) but rather it is on a random cycle. About as random as it is to get gems from clearing shrubs! So like every 4 seconds the game would roll the dice to give her a 1-3 second cloak. This ability would take some tweaking, and odds and amount of time could be increased as the troop is upgraded. I agree that she would be too op if she only showed her face when attacking. I think randomness makes games more fun... they add an element of luck and unpredictability.

    AHAHAHAAHA!! That's so awesome! I didn't even think about how they'd work as a defensive unit in the clan castle. As we know, not all troops in the game make for great defense. Not sure the Assassin would be all that desirable as a clan castle donation, but you're right... if someone just tried to drop the king or queen to maybe take-out an outside town hall, the assassin would take them out before they could even finish! It'd be epic!

    New Artwork For Icon

    Let me know what you guys think! I think She'd also look cool with a mask covering her mouth and nose, so she'd look a bit more ninja-like.

    They sound great with hog riders, they jump over walls and when hogs destroy defenses surrounding the heros most likely in the middle, then you can send assassins afterwards.

    Attack CC Troops as well?

    Should the assassin also go for cc troops as well? I'm worried that it may be too much for the assassin, and would get distracted and die before actually taking out a hero. Maybe SUPERCELL could make a priority level of targets.. to go for heroes first, then any remaining cc troops, then all other targets. Thoughts?

    i disagree (not trying to hate, but...) , i agree with his point that it would be really tricky and would require a lot of skill to place the assassin in the perfect place at the perfect time in order to effectively take out the heroes. i also like the disappearing ability, but i think it would be more balanced out if it happened every, say, 5 seconds and lasted for 2 and either happens more often or lasts longer, the more you level it up


    i am somewhat new to clash of clans only being level 58, but i am proud of it too

    Reply: Assassin

    This idea is excellent! no other troop thought of yet attacks heroes! BUT: I voted off this troop because it has an incredibly high number of weaknesses. First of all, the heroes themselves: the Archer Queen, at a high enough level, can simply pick it off before the Assassin even gets close! Second, traps would wreak havoc on their journey to the heroes. Giant Bombs would annihilate them before they could go anywhere, and the regular Bombs would deal sufficient damage to make it easy pickings for the defenses. Maybe add a little blurb saying something like "traps cannot detect Assassins" or "Assassins move fast enough to outrun traps' fuse times".
