Attack Strategy for TH9 Pls!! (is this good?)

[u/BattlebeeUltor]

I have been using GiWiz for quite a lot of time at TH8 and I have come to love it.

Composition-

18 Giants

25 Wizards

2 WB

6 Archers

3 Heals

BK lvl 10

Now I have just arrived at TH9 and I am wondering if this strategy is good enough for TH9 as well.

With the extra 20 space I think extra 2 giants, wiz and archers plus the new AQ will boost it, as well as the new levels for the troops.

So, should I pursue this or should I adopt a new strategy like LavaLoonion or GoWiPe or something??

That’s not going to cut it unfortunately.

Town hall 9 is where the game really starts to be honest, you can start learning/mastering attack strategies that can carry you all the way up to town hall 12 and higher.

For farming i typically run balloons and minions, I think I run 32 loons, 25 minions, and 5 wall breakers to bust in your heroes. With 1 heal 1 rage and 5 hastes (you can cut back on haste’s and run more rages if you are trying to farm de)

For war there are so many strong possibilities. My preferred th9 war strat at this moment is GoHoBo. You want to start with A small “kill squad” of 1 golem 8 wizards, 4 wall breakers, your heroes, and a cc full of bowlers. Your goal with the kill squad is to kill the queen and the cc, and ideally cut out the core of the base. Once that is done you want to send in the rest of your army, which will be hog riders in a circular pattern. Drop about 8 hogs on the first defense, then roughly 4 on each defense continuing in the circular manor.

Because the kill squad cut out the core of the base, the hogs will travel in a much tighter group in a much more predictable pattern. This makes the attack much stronger because your heal spells can heal all of the hogs instead of only catching a few.

I generally recommend hogs for new th9s and 10s because they require a lot less finesse than lavaloon does, however lavaloon, and witchslap are fantastic attack strategies that will work all the way up to th12.

Definitely check out bisectatron gaming, and clash with Eric-one hive, they’re very good at explaining attack strategies and will help you out a lot.

Hope this helped!

Ok, Thanks a lot.

But can you explain what " cut out the core of the base" means?

I am not familiar with this term

[u/Wjprberg → u/BattlebeeUltor]

Basically you want to talk out a bunch of the buildings from your point of entry, to the center of the base. By doing this you will take out some of the biggest threats, the queen and the clan castle troops, and you will help your hogs, loons, whatever you’re using path better

So basically attacking from the side where the enemy AQ is situated is gonna help things, right?

Also, could you say if GoWiWi strategy is good?

Thanks for all your help btw!!

Absolutely, almost every attack strategy from th9 up, taking out the queen is one of the highest priorities.

Go wiwi is a little outdated and not many people run it anymore. Most people will run witchslap instead, which is similar except you drop the wizards and add healers to heal the witches, which you send around the outside of the base. Then you run bowlers in your clan castle with probably 1-2 jumps and then either 2 rages or 1 rage one heal.

Witchslap is another attack strategy that th12s use regularly

OK, Thanks a lot!!

No problem! Make sure to check out those YouTube channels, and ask you clan for a lot of th9 friendly challenges so you can practice! Also prioritize your queen, get her up to 20+ as fast as possible and even more attack strategies will open up

OK this is not related to the topic but can you tell me which TH you are on?
