    If you decide to go the GoHo route, and there is a hound in the cc you could be in trouble... my only suggestion for that is to try not to trip it with the Go part, trip it with the hogs so the hound just follows them around dealing no damage and hopefully it never pops

    I'd say just mass hog it. A hound will do nothing to hogs.

    A goho looks quite hard to execute, but you only need a few backend hogs for that.

    IMO mass hogs will still do it.

    A level 5 queen has a DPS of 176. If you keep hogs under heal, only a few will die. Seeing as the point defense is insanely low, only heal on GBs and heroes. Done!

    Ok, OP please try this and share the fail replay. You obviously have never hogged a base with a queen before... its not about her DPS so much as its her ability to take down hogs without taking a step. Heals wont save you, 3 shots to kill a hog, they'll go down QUICK

    Why so quick to judge? Chill.

    I'm a TH8.75, and have GoHoed and hogged TH9s before. Usually a GoHo is better, but with this weak point defense, it should go down.

    I have surgically hogged a rushed TH9 (with level 3 hogs) and came out with a 3 star.

    Again, another TH9. Low defense, but the queen was 7. I attacked from the opposite side, and last heal came down near the queen.

    3 shots to kill a hog. With a heal, that's 5. 4 seconds to kill a hog. It takes hogs a few seconds to take down each defense. I'd say at most, 5 hogs go down before they kill the queen. That's 20 seconds of destroying defenses (the queen is on the edge, not in the core)

    GoodLuck!

    You can do whatever you feel is best!

    IMO GoHo takes a little more skill but that's just me.

    Also, if there's a hound, ignore it. Don't try to kill it. Use poisons on AQ instead.

    Update: just finished attacking this base for the three star. I brought 1 golem and the rest hogs and a handful of archers for trash cleanup. dropped my king first at 11ish o'clock to draw out the defensive king for a king swap, dropped my golem in almost same place to draw defensive fire from the two mortarts and more importantly distracting the queen. As soon as queen locked onto golem two finger drop of all hogs coming in from same side the golem came in from. hogs made it back to the queen by the time she was just finishing up the golemites to kill her.

    Appreciate both of your guys input.

    Your issue with hog raids isn't the point defenses, it's spring traps, giant bombs, and the queen. He has more giant bombs than you have heal spells, and if the giant bombs are spaced right you're toast.

    Honestly, I'd recommend your clan have you two a higher 9 and have an actual 9 rip this base up with a GOWIWI.

    Nvm, guess it worked. Congrats. When hogging 9s, ALWAYS figure out a way to kill the queen. Always always always, no exceptions. For that reason, I only like hogging 9s with exposed queens from my 8.
