    What do you mean there could be anything in there?!
    Only the insane would put anything other than something heavy in the war cc.. That's the point of the discussion, poison spell can kill anything beside heavy troops like dragons.. Etc, and now you're telling me there is increased diversity? What?!
    You said it is harder again now.. But how? By always knowing that there is a drag in Cc? It was way harder before and that's why I hate the poison spell, it made things more easier and silly..

    To make things more simple for you, if you put archers/wizards in ur cc, I have a poison for them, if not then I already knew..
    Poison just ruined the fun of actually being afraid of what's inside.

    Poison Spell

    Poison spell is still very useful outside of war in matchmaking. Even with a Lava Hound you can still deploy the poison when the lava pups appear and take most of them out. Skeletons can also get in the way when attacking and dropping a poison can do the trick

    Unfortunately that's the problem, nobody has to learn anything. The only troops that are immune to poison are completely useless at defence and can all but be just ignored.

    Dragons and loons can just be "ignored"?

    Well at TH10 pretty much yes, on my mini TH8 account I do have to lure but dragon slaying is so easy you can do it with your eyes closed.

    Before: arch, wiz, witch.

    Now: Could be drag, loons, valks, lava or any combo of those. All of which are going to effect different attack strategies differently. I dont think its harder, just different. Its the complainers that seem to be having trouble with the change.

    It's not the change that people are complaining about it's the fact that it's been made way too easy.

    You could also ignore the old troops depending on your attack comp. Gowiw, gowipe rarely had to lure cc anyways. Same thing different troops, no biggie.

    lol, you must be straight drunk



    Witches were popular, but a ton of people didnt use them. I didnt myself.

    Loon + Wiz combo > Witch imo prior to poison. You used to see a lot of drags, witch, loons, all wiz, arch, valk combos. There was significantly more variety. And it actually required skill to attack a CC.




    Now you are GUARANTEED to either see a drag or a hound. And it requires zero skill.

    Not for me, or clans my mini floated around in. Before- also add valks and loons to the discussion. And plenty of TH10 were already using hounds. It was much more diverse before the poison spell was introduced.

    ETA- not only did SC come out with the poison spell...they added a space to your spell count, begging you to take it along for the ride.
