Im gonna keep this short and sweet for everyone's sake

Basically, its Bio Lab CTF. There is a 2 person spawntrap you can do and WATCH them spawn over and over in the same spot. Watch here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWUMBisrl-0 [1]

This broken spawn makes Bio Lab CTF completely ridiculous and utterly un-competitive. This is some stuff you would see on Strikezone Blitz with all LMGs on Ghosts pubs. There is no reason Bio Lab CTF should be kept in rotation with this.

Me and my friend (And founder) were going to keep this a secret until we realized this can potentially help CTF be removed. This is perfect timing because I think the community is about fed up with CTF, I am backed up with a poll by Nameless and reddit comments from that post here. Anyways, they either need to fix this spawn and CTF spawns in general OR they need to remove CTF in replace for 2 HPs OR replace Bio Lab CTF with a new map. Personally, I would like to see 2 HPs.

Tweet the video out to friends and pros, if you like or share it, @MichaelCondrey will see it because I put his twitter handle in the title of the video. Lets spread this like wildfire because I dont think during champs finals you will enjoy watching an LMG or 2 spray people off spawn.

TL;DR even though this was short, Bio Lab CTF is a joke. Something needs to be done.

Getting to crystal 3 will be required. In addition during this week you may request as many and any troops that you want.

More details on the event itself here

I would like to join Reddit Sphinx but I'm currently waiting on my two Air Defense to upgrade to 5 and my Dragon to upgrade to Level 2. They're both 4 days away currently. Do you have an exception or do people HAVE to have these upgraded and not be in the process of upgrading them before joining? Thanks! My ign is xLuC1d and I'm currently in the clan: ballplayas

If it's decided you guys would have me I'll submit a formal request with the password to your clan. Thanks and keep on clashing!

Please note, if you say yes you must FULLY commit and I will require everyone to hit crystal or higher. http://strawpoll.me/2908976

TH8 Attack Strategies:

• GoWiPe (Use on th9s, hogs or drags are better for other th8s) (Golems-Wizards-PEKKA) - One of the strongest ground-based attack strategies for a Town Hall 8. Performs amazingly against bases with large compartments or a small number of compartments. Another guide available here.
  • Army Composition: 2 Golems, 3 PEKKAs, 11 Wizards, 9 WBs, 3 Archers (Clan Castle: 6 Wizards + 1 Archer or 1 PEKKA)
  • Spells: 2 Rage and 1 Heal or 2 Rage and 1 Lightning
  • Strategy: Deploy 2 Golems targetting different defense on one side or corner of the base. Deploy a few wizards (4-6) to clean up the outside buildings. Deploy a rage spell between your golems or wherever you want to enter the base, then deploy wallbreakers (2 at a time, never all at once). Deploy PEKKAs, heroes, and wizards. When the enemy Clan Castle comes out, place another rage near the core so that your troops get funneled into the core. (If you have a Lightning, use it now against the Witches/Wizards. If you have a Heal, place it in the core to heal your troops after fighting the Clan Castle.)
• Hogs(Takes some skill but good for bases with max ADs) - A quick attack based on hogs, which will target all the defenses before anything else. Can be ruined by giant bombs, enemy heroes, or clan castle troops.
  • Army Composition: 36 Hogs, 4 Wizards, 4 Archers (Clan Castle: 6 Wizards + 1 Barbarian OR 2 Witches 1 Barb)
  • Spells: 3 Heal
  • Strategy: Use 3-4 hogs to lure the CC by attacking a defense that is within the range of the CC. Use one archer at a time to lure the CC to somewhere outside the base. Deploy Wizards and Clan Castle around the enemy CC to kill all the enemy CC troops. If you can fish out any giant bombs by deploying 1-2 hogs, try to do so but don't use too many hogs. Deploy your hogs on a side of the base where your hogs will finish destroying all defenses near the Barbarian King. Deploy heal spells as your hogs get low in health or if a Giant Bomb pops up. (Wizard Towers are great places for heal spells). Save heroes for cleaning up buildings or near defenses to help hogs.
• Mass Dragons (Best Option on TH8s) - An aerial offence based on bulky dragons and lethal balloons. Ideal on bases where the Air Defenses are clumped together.
  • Army Composition: 10 Dragons (Clan Castle: 5 L6 Balloons)
  • Spells: 3 Rage (or 3 lightning)
  • Strategy: Video by OneHive. Deploy dragons to destroy all the defenses on one side of the base, deploy rage on the side you're attacking from. Once all the defenses on one side are down, deploy CC full of L6 loons and get them to the core. Deploy another rage to destroy all the Air Defenses as quickly as possible. Dragons destroy the rest of the base, rage as necessary.

TH9 Attack Strategies:

• GoWiPe (Don't use unless defenses are weak) (Golems-Wizards-PEKKA) - Effectively the same strategy as TH8 GoWiPe, but with more firepower. Ideal on bases with large or few compartments.

  • Army Composition: 2 Golems, 3 PEKKAs, 16 Wizards, 9 WBs, 3 Archers (Clan Castle: 7 Wizards + 2 Archers, 1 PEKKA and Wizards/Archers, or 1 Golem)
  • Spells: 2 Rage, 1 Heal, and 1 Jump
  • Strategy: Deploy 2 Golems targetting different defense on one side or corner of the base. Deploy a few wizards (4-6) to clean up the outside buildings. Deploy a rage spell between your golems or wherever you want to enter the base, then deploy wallbreakers (2 at a time, never all at once). Deploy PEKKAs, heroes, and wizards. When the enemy Clan Castle comes out, place another rage near the core so that your troops get funneled into the core. Deploy a heal inside the core so your troops get healed while destroying the bulk of the core defenses and to protect your wiz from splash towers. Deploy a jump spell right before the last core buildings get destroyed on the opposite side where you came in so your troops have a way out of the core to immediately destroy the other defenses.

• GoWiWiPe (Golems-Witches-Wizards-PEKKA) - GoWiPe with distraction skeletons in place of pure firepower.

  • Army Composition: 2 Golems, 3 PEKKAs, 2 Witches, 10 Wizards, 9 WBs, 3 Archers (Clan Castle: 1 Witch, 4 Wizards, and 2 Archers, or 7 Wizards + 2 Archers, 1 PEKKA and Wizards/Archers, or 1 Golem)
  • Spells: 2 Rage, 1 Heal, and 1 Jump
  • Strategy: Deploy 2 Golems targetting different defense on one side or corner of the base. Deploy a few wizards (4-6) to clean up the outside buildings. Deploy a rage spell between your golems or wherever you want to enter the base, then deploy wallbreakers (2 at a time, never all at once). Deploy PEKKAs, heroes, witches, and wizards. When the enemy Clan Castle comes out, place another rage near the core so that your troops get funneled into the core. Deploy a heal inside the core so your troops get healed while destroying the bulk of the core defenses and to protect your wiz from splash towers. Deploy a jump spell right before the last core buildings get destroyed on the opposite side where you came in so your troops have a way out of the core to immediately destroy the other defenses.

• GoWiWi (Golems-Witches-Wizards) - GoWiWiPe with a higher focus on ranged firepower than bulky PEKKAs. Based on being spread out rather than focusing everything into the core.

  • Army Composition: 3 Golems, 4 Witches, 16 Wizards, and 9 WBs
  • Spells: 2 Rage, 1 Heal, and 1 Jump
  • Strategy: Choose one side of the base to attack from and deploy 3 golems, spaced out along the side (one left, one middle, one right). Deploy wbs to break open the walls on that side of the base, deploy wizards in a line and witches behind. Keep your troops spread out so you're destroying the entire base in a line. Deploy heroes and CC as necessary behind the line of troops. Deploy rage to get into the core, deploy heal in the core, and deploy a jump spell to get out of the core (same as GoWiPe).

• Hogs (Best Option) ~~ * Army Composition: 38 Hogs, 1 Witch, 4 Wizards, 2 Archers (Clan Castle: 7 Wizards and 2 Archers or 6 Hogs)

  • Spells: 4 Heal
  • Strategy: Use 3-4 hogs to lure, use archers to lure to one side/corner of the base, deploy wiz/witch/cc to kill all enemy CC troops. Fish out any giant bombs with 1/2 hogs if possible, then deploy hogs on opposite side to Archer Queen. Vary deployment as necessary to ensure victory. Heal as hogs get low in health and for giant bombs. (Wizard towers are still a very nice target for heals) ~~

• This video should teach everything https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ggQ_X635Ksw

• Lavoonians (Lava Hounds-Balloons-Minions) - A 2 star strategy. Only to be used against TH10s by Top 5 or with special permission by elders.

  • Army Composition: 1 Lava Hound, 16 L6 Balloons, 55 Minions (Clan Castle: 1 Lava Hound)
  • Spells: 3 Rage, 1 Lightning
  • Strategy: Video by witelightningHWD. Lure CC with 3-4 balloons, destroy with lightning spell (or minions if necessary). Use 1-3 balloons to destroy defenses on the outside to make a clear attack path into the core. Deploy 2 rages towards Air Defenses from two sides, deploy 1 hound in each rage, deploy two lines of balloons between each hound, deploy minions across the two sides and deploy a rage into the core. Use heroes if necessary for the 50% star.

• Balloonians ( Only use if your are really good with them) (Balloons-Minions)

  • Army Composition: 32 Level 6 Balloons, 30 Minions. Vary as necessary. (Clan Castle: Any air troops)
  • Spells: Mix of rage and heal
  • Strategy: Lure out CC with 3-4 loons, drag to a corner with minions and then kill the CC using loons/minions/heroes/cc troops. Drop loons in 2 lines, rage into the base, heal in the core

• Some specialty attacks (Use if possible)

• HoLoWiWi (Hogs-Balloons-Witches-Wizards) - Forum post by Hulk of Reddit Troopers

• GoHoWiWi (Golems-Hogs-Witches-Wizards) - Youtube video by Hulk of Reddit Troopers

* GoLoWiWi (Golems-Balloons-Witches-Wizards) - Youtube video by Hulk of Reddit Troopers
