    Disable Spell

    Hello everyone, and welcome to the Slow Spell New Spell information. Here you will find useful information about the Disable Spell idea I've thought of. Here's the table of contents

    Table of contents:
    I. INTRODUCTION
    II. SUMMARY OF THE SPELL
    III. ATACKING STRATEGIES
    IV. DEFENSIVE STRATEGIES
    V. EPIC FAILS
    VI. WHEN UNLOCKED AND DARK SPELL FACTORY INFO
    VII. STATISTICS AND UPGRADE INFO
    VIII. SPELL IMAGE (YOU CAN BRING UP ONE)
    IX. CONCLUSION
    X. FAQ


    Don't get freaked out because the table is long, this will be as quick as training a Wizard.

    I. INTRODUCTION

    You guys already know the Freeze spell, right? Well the Slow Spell is a dark spell, as it's similar to the Freeze spell and I can tell you why. As you already know, I will talk about attacking strategies, defensive strategies, possible epic fails with this spell, trolling (for trolls who like to play in Bronze III) Its Dark spell factory's information, statistics and spell image! If you have any questions or comments don't be afraid to ask, I'm open for suggestions!

    II. SUMMARY OF THE SPELL

    The spell is similar to the Freeze Spell, but with longer range and duration, but less levels. We can say that it's more like a spell for buying time, and super effective when using an all dragon or all balloon army.

    "Time to buy time with this spell, its ghostly appearance and power can slow down your opponent's defenses!"

    That's what it would say in the game description if it were implemented. As implied, it affects active defenses, such as giant bombs about to explode (this is hard to do) or active hidden teslas making your troops do the shocking moves dance. This is a very useful spell for high level raiding, though it is unlocked at a very high town hall level.

    III. ATACKING STRATEGIES

    There are several attacking strategies you could use including those in the clash of clans wiki. For example, I've already said that you could use all air troop army with the disable spell, this includes:

    - Balloons, Dragons, and Minions

    And since the housing space is 1 (I'm considering of changing it to 2), A player can keep air defenses (at least 1 if they're all spread out) inactive for nearly the entire battle! Sounds OP, but that's why there's a defensive strategy to this.

    You can also try this spell with X-Bows, and Inferno Towers, and hidden teslas so tank troops like PEKKAS or Giants can take them down and low health troops like archers take mortars down!

    This is also useful for keeping Clan Castle troops at bay if you have an all-specific-building attack army. For example, bringing balloons and giants only, or bringing an entire Hog Rider Army.

    The Barbarian King and Archer Queen falls into the troop category, so they'll be affected by the Slow Spell as long as the spell lands on them. Their movement will be lowered including their attack rate.

    You should know that this spell only attacks active defenses, so if you drop a disable Spell in the area where a hidden tesla tower is not revealed, when it is revealed it stays active, this effect even includes heroes that walk into the spell's area, or Clan Castle troops. If the troops aren't revealed when you drop the spell, when the troops are revealed they will still be able to move.

    You can also try a Poison + Slow Spell strategy, that way, Clan Castle troops will get killed a bit easily while you attack. For example, you reveal all the archers in the clan castle and set them up in a lone building. That way you drop a poison spell and a Slow Spell and several tier 1 troops and attack the village while your enemy's Clan Castle troops get killed. This is very useful if the witch is the Troop in the clan castle as it can spawn infinite skeletons while defending. You might need, however, more poison spells for higher HP troops, like dragons and Valkiries, as the Slow spell'storage effects do not stack.

    IV. DEFENSIVE STRATEGIES

    It is recommended to spread out your defenses especially your splash damage buildings. This way, even with the spell's long range, will be able to slow down only a few defenses.

    If you spread out your Air Defenses, you'll avoid having all your air defenses being slowed down for the entire fight (if the enemy brings a full spell inventory along).

    Spreading out your wizard towers and mortars is important too, that way, you'll keep 5 of your splash damage buildings in full speed if 1 gets slowed down.

    Here's an example of an anti-disable spell base:



    V. EPIC FAILS

    there are possible epic fails to this which you can laugh about, or actually do for trolling.

    DEFENSIVE FAILS

    Remember about what I've said about trolls trolling around in Bronze III? Well this is what I'm talking about. You can bring in a slow spell and 10 minions and slow down a players defenses at once.

    This is usually a trolling strategy for Bronze III players, but it is still funny!

    ATTACKING FAILS

    It is a very bad idea to drop your spells right where your troops are, it's not like cannonballs and arrows will slow down in midflight!

    Do not drop all your disable spells in the same place, their effects don't stack!

    , the other day, you will find someone trying to make a melody by dropping slow spells is rhythm.

    Someone just dropped a disable Spell over a clan castle without their troops sent out of the castle!

    VI. WHEN UNLOCKED AND DARK SPELL FACTORY INFO

    VII. SPELL IMAGE

    The Dark Spell's liquid is a ghostly grey in a thin tube, like the tube that dark elixir spells have. The background appears to be very ghostly/spooky, with a clock up on front, similar to the clock that appears when you boost your barracks/spell/resources/king/queen. (You can already tell how this spell will appear as when active). When the spell is dropped the background becomes ghostly, and a clock appears slowing down, for 1.4 seconds.

    IX. CONCLUSION

    I hope you liked my post about the dark spell and I hope we all wish it was added into the game, it would make a great challenge for us clashers, so keep on clashing!

    So much effort for nothing 😢

    Omg, how come everyone ignored me, what did I do wrong, tell me 😢


    Plus, I'm soon going to add an anti-disable spell base, so check my idea out!

    -sigh- you do know that a max th10 could bring ELEVEN of these, all drags, and then THREE-STAR a base? The Freeze Spell keeps the game balanced BECAUSE of its small range, short freeze-time and a spell space of 2

    Thanks to Greg1988 for the awsome sig!

    New housing space

    I've decided to change the housing space to 3, so this is least likely to happen.

    Unfortunately, I see too many problems with this spell. I will be blunt, please excuse me.



    •As the thread suggests, it is 'Very Similar' to the Freeze spell. I never like to see this in a thread, because it is not new or unique in comparison to other spells. We all know its purpose by that statement.

    •It is a dark spell; It has a larger range and duration other than the Freeze spell. This is disaster for any TH10+ Base. It would be the safest way to get a three star, and I believe with increased statistics in comparison to the Freeze spell, this spell is too powerful

    When creating an idea, make it different than any other, and give it new characteristics. If it is not something new or unique, people will not bother.

    In summary, this is a much stronger Freeze spell with less housing space. This is why your thread is not getting the support you want, people want something New; something with a special purpose.

    Thanks for the idea, now I'll be able to balance it out

    P.S. housing space ws raised to 3 a few days ago, to prevent a defense being totally useless.

    It seems a little stronger than the Freeze Spell if it has longer duration and area effect with half the space and if you change it to 2 it is like a better version of the Freeze Spell. So,I propose maybe a spell that slows the defenses down? I think that would be a great idea. Longer duration and area effect except it does not disable defenses but it slows them down by a certain percentage.
