    Question The use of Goblins... At all...

    Simple question: Do you use Goblins?

    A guy in my clan has wen requesting for them lately as he is farming and focussing on resources.

    It got me thinking, even on resource raids I don't use and have never used Goblins! I know a couple of other clan-mates take along maybe 5? But apart from this I do not know of any real BIG use of them!

    Are they only ever used as that small quantity, extra-bit troop?

    I use half archers, then split the other half with Gobs and barbs. I like Gobs, for farming only obviously. They go straight to resources, and are quick. For example if i'm going for resources in the middle, my gobs will go in there. My barbs would stop at everything on around it.
    I can't wait for mine to get mohawks.

    my farming army, maxed at TH9:


    8 Giants
    76 Archers
    52 Barbs
    52 Goblins


    Goblins are critical; they're like piranha around resources.

    A guy in my clan uses like 20 goblins when he farms and got another clan member to start doing it too. I've seen people use them in mass and others in low quantities. I've tried using goblins whilst farming, but I feel like they die before they do too much damage, so I stick with my usual farming comp: 16 giants, 5 wbs, 65 archers and 65 barbs.

    I take 12 with me on my raids, good v's inactive bases for that harder to reach collector there sometimes is buried behind a lot of outside buildings. Also can be very good at sneaking into a core for the dark tank under cover of a few Giants.
    I hate to be a kicker,
    I always long for peace,
    But the wheel that does the squeaking,
    Is the one that gets the grease.

    i love them

    they are good as you use less troop on collector raids. plus they ignore barracks and army camps making a more efficient raid

    I love them. I use 40 with my barch. They don't waste time on any other buildings. They don't get distracted by heroes and they are great for getting into the core on storage raids.

    Also if used correctly they can be great for setting off traps. If you time it right a single goblin can set off multiple spring traps and bombs without taking any damage
