New Dark Troop: The Blob

[Mznorling]

HP: 4000
Damage: 160
Movement Speed: 16
Train Time: 45 min.
Cost: 600 dark elixir
Space: 40
Available at TH10 +

When this troop is destroyed, it splits into two, each with half the HP and damage of the previous. Speed is increased by 1 per split. This troop can split up to 5 times, generating 32 mini blobs with 125 HP and 5 damage each. At this point it will split no more.


Army possibilities: This troop will be a great replacment for golem in the standard attack strategies. With all that splitting, it can probably distract defenses much longer than a golem. A single target inferno itself will likely get overrun after splits, while a multi-target itself can't deal the 4000 damage to make this troop split. Spamming this troop is not a good idea, as it doesn't deal enough damage by itself to wipe out half a base.

Defensive: This troop will need both splash and high point damage in the same area to be taken down effectively. (recommended single target inferno+wizard towers).
Have you thought about putting this troop inside TH11 clan castles? It will be a nuisance all right. (Timing the poison spell is key! Recommended drop after the 2nd split.)

Spring traps?

Spring traps?

Pokemaniac has a point, what happens if a spring trap hits the troop?

[Mznorling]

spring traps can affect the troop after the second split. for troop capacity calculations it's 40/2 per split. so 2 splits= 10 capacity, meaning the blob can be springed

wow great idea

This is really cool, and I wish it was before the golem. However, having two golem troops with similar stats and similar powers seems a bit redundant.

I do like this idea, but I find that the idea of a tanky troop splitting is a bit over used, there needs to be something new! It isn't like this troop is a rock guy like the Lava Hound or the Golem, but all this troop is is a Golem that doesn't split into too much weaker troops and continues to do that five times.
