Need Help With Gowiwi - What Am I Doing Wrong?

[rogatsby]

Lately, as my base has become stronger, I have been having trouble with my Gowiwi attacks. This has been my go-to attack since th9, and it works great sometimes. But in recent clan wars, I have been failing against stronger bases. Can you take a look at this video from my last clan war and provide some tips or advice? What can I do to improve? What am I doing wrong?

Are my heroes too weak? Is my troop composition lacking? Is something wrong with my troop and/or spell deployment?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. FYI, sometimes I crush bases using the exact deployment shown in the video. But I am failing much more than before as of late.

Thanks in advance.

It's the base layout. If you watched MYSTC7's video on that base, you'll see how bad other strats are doing against it.
You need to attack differently, the golems funnell around the base, like hogs do on anti-hig bases at th9. Then witches, wizards, pekkas, and/or heroes just die quickly by the interior defences without the tanking ability of the golems. Nothing wrong on the attack, it's just the base.

Here's the link to the video I mentioned earlier:

Very interesting. Thanks for the reply and info.

I think against that base Shattered LaLoon, 5G GoWiPe, and 5G GoHo works the best

I know about Laloon and GoHo, but what does shattered and 5G mean?

Ah, I see. Shattered means using golems, heroes, and wizards to take out AQ and/or BK before deploying the lava hounds and balloons. Looks great, but I will need to practice. Thanks for the info!

So Cold Blooded(CB) means you use 1 golem plus your king to take out the archer queen (and in a LaLoon attack you queen should take 1 AD). Shattered means two golems (and your queen should take 2 ADs). 5G or brimstone means you use 5 golems and jump them right into the mix. You can use hogs, valks or wizzies as dps/clean up and some like pekkas.
