I like the idea. I think it could be used similar to bowlers because of its potential wide range. This can be well used to support walks as well. E.g. i think it might be a realy good support to pekka wall and queenwalk, perhaps this would get op cause not only damage support and taking out kind of inner defs, but also weakening them.
I think rocketeer walk might be a thing as well, you might take in about 2-3 of them cause of not that high dps, but you need only 1-2 healers to keep them up cause of their wide range they dont get targeted by many buildings and these buildings get even lower dps. Therefore their hp might better get a bit decreased.
How you already wrote for a ks they are usefull and almost unvulnerable behind tanks as well. I think with that big def slow down, their medium dps, large range and more than enough hp if protected, this troop is a bit overpowered. (perhaps im wrong, but at least think about decreasing dps and hp a bit)

My goal for this troop was to be as versatile as possible without having to substantially lower any DPS or HP statistics.
As for you healer statement, I have to respectively disagree. Yes, Rocketeers can weaken defenses, but only one at a time. If you have a group of 2-3 on just one defense, and have at least 3 different defenses on one Rocketeer in that group, chances are just two healers wouldn't be able to keep up. Statistically speaking, 2 healers are only capable of healing about 100HP every second or so, and with 3+ defenses, all dealing at least 90 to 100DPS each, the Rocketeer's HP will eventually decrease. The healers simply won't be able to keep up since there will be more damage coming in from other defenses. Rocketeer's are as big as a healer, and most people wouldn't think about bringing 2-3 Rocketeer's along with 3-4 healers. That can be the equivalent housing space of just 6-8 healers.
If I were to use this troop with Healers, I'd suggest just bringing one or two Rocketeer's for the walk, and 3-4 Healers to keep them up. I made sure that this troop can't last too long by itself. A max Rocketeer is only capable of taking about 11-13 hits from regular cannons or archer towers, and chances are the Rocketeer will be targeted by more than one defense. It's range won't be too much to worry about, because the troop can still be flung by spring traps and blown up by bombs.
It's range is not quite as big as the Archer Queen's(AQ), and definitely doesn't have as much HP as she does. The AQ still gets targeted quite often by defenses, I can guarantee you that the Rocketeer will be targeted just as often, if not more often.
I'm not at all worried about its ability to weaken defenses. This is the troop's special ability, and I hope it can lessen the spamming of mostly one troop by weaken some of the strong defenses,(EA, Infernos, X-bows, large sections of point defenses, etc.)
I'm glad you like it, and thank you for your concerns.

I think this troop will be to OP and will not help the ground and air balancing
The plan and overall goal was to make a very reliable, versatile, and strong troop that could make a difference in attacks. I try my best to properly and accurately represent the current statistics, but yes, it is not up to me to decide them in the end.
I must ask for your thoughts on why you think this could not work as a troop in clash of clans. I made it clear to state why, care to share with us?![]()

Two Additional questions and answers has been added to the FAQ section of the thread. Go check it out!
1st, ask a mod to change the title, looks like its different.
2nd, in Bonus, you have that it is the first ranged to target defences, I am sure Ice wiz is first.
3rd, the last question in FAQ is off centre
4th, I will read the whole thing and reply soon
