The new Archer Queen AI is horrible (With Pictures)

[Deadtoast15]

Yes this is another thread to express how bad the new AI of the AQ is. Take a look at this.


This is where we start. What I plan to do is a Shattered Laloon. Use 2 golems and 2 wall breakers and 4 wizards in this little area. Break down the cannon wall and place down a jumped spell into the larger compartment. This way my Barb King and Archer Queen can take out the heros and both air defenses right in front of it.


Here is the part where I placed down my jump spell and had already placed down my heros. Everything seems ok. Golems and Barb King going head on in the center. Archer Queen hanging back a bit.



The Barb King and Golems died where's the Archer Queen!? Oh Wait she decided to ignore the jump spell and play ring around the rosy.



In the end this ruins my attack completely both air defenses and enemy Archer Queen survived thus costing me my entire attack.

I really hope Supercell has been watching closely at how the Archer Queen AI has been acting in combat and hope they can change it again soon. Before she was wall breaker hungry now she's afraid the walls will bite her hand off. They need to balance her in the middle.

I am now done ranting Thank you for reading my thread..Any comments feel free to post.

Good use of screenshots. The new AI is in fact really good...with the exception of Jump spells. After that Drill went down the Gold Storage was the next closest building. She should be using the Jump...but for some reason does not.

If SuperCell simply fixed her Jump spell allergies I think this new AI would be fantastic...but until then it will continue to frustrate.

Happens here too that the AQ seems to ignore the jump spell at times.

I like the AQ!
Pretty sure the DE collector is closer the her than the storage..
Your BK went forward coz of the enemy AQ shooting at him.

EDIT: Ofc she should have gone for the storage efter the collector was Down.

Here is another video highlighting that the archer queen is ignoring hidden Tesla! Need to be fixed ASAP.

Both cannon and storage are in a same distance from her, she chosed the cannon.

I see nothing wrong dude, you need to realize her adquire targets circle is much bigger than before.

Yes. But after the drill went down the nearest building was the Gold Storage.

You just need to clear more building dude. I don't see anything wrong in that.

Using my counting skillz it would seem that the storage is 7 tiles away, while the cannon is 8 tiles away.

There is nothing wrong with her AI in this case....
You need to create a bigger funnel, simple as that.
The AQ is ranged whereas your BK and golem are melee and therefore needs to use the jump spell to get to their nearest target.
