Here is an idea...STOP THROTTLING THE HOG RIDERS!!

[SmokeMonster]

In fact, why don't you stop throttling certain troops all together. You have increased the strength of the archer towers and cannon's, you have changed the way hero's work, you have added the skeleton coffin's... yet the troops AI has remained unchanged since you changed the way the bombers move or attack. The Hero Queen will attack a wall over attacking something that is attacking her.

I've been playing this game for 2 and a half years, I have unfortunately spent money for gems and yet I'm finding that there is no reason or purpose to improve your troops beyond a certain level because the defenses have improved and troop strength has not, in fact you have decreased the troop strength and it seems the hogs get worse with every update and they are practically an unusable troop now.

Stop throttling the troop strength back in order to force a gem purchase to get your resources through that means.

Why is every update a hog nerf? Quick question, are you still spamming hogs? Or have you tried to adapt and use hogs as a support unit?



Troops do in fact get buffs and the defense buffs are to balance them out. Every new level or feature needs a balance to it. Supercell does an amazing job with balancing, although yes they can miss the mark on occassions but it is corrected along with the next update. Constantly growing/changing games require you to adapt with each new update.

Balance it's all about balance.

Problem is that it's very unbalanced. with the changes to the Hero's staying in 1 location, instead of wandering off, that has made them a defense... yet Hogs and Giants won't attack a hero because they aren't a "defense" building. That's ♥♥♥♥.

The game play literally is getting worse now, and Supercell is doing throttles of troops on a daily basis.

enlightening how? Hogs can't stay alive long enough to take out 3 defenses now, unless you drop 2 healing spells on them. Hogs are completely useless even has a support troop, and it's to a point where the game is now having to be played for trophies and not resources... because you have to spend more now in order to win but you don't get a return on resources of what was spent.

Again, the base to troops is not balanced at all. They need to stop focusing on base improvement's and start putting in time on troop improvements to balance it back.

I don't think you bothered reading it so do this. Look up holowiwi and gohowiwi as well as other variants of hog strategies. That will help you out.

Wrong forums for rage posting. Learn to play instead of paying to win.

It wasn't a rage post, it was an idea I submitted, I even started the subject with having an idea in order to improve the game. I stand by my idea and suggest Supercell to stop nerfing or throttling the troops and creating an unbalanced game.

Hogs are one of the go to strategy at th9 (goho,holo,etc). A key part of those strategies is getting to and killing the archer queen.

If heroes were lurable not only would hogs again be overpowered but laloon would be ridiculous.

Personally I like the balance with hogs right now, strong enough to three star max th9, weak enough they take skill to use.

I don't know about hogs at th10 but I expect there use is much more limited.
