A strong attack strategy is crucial for success in Clash of Clans. Randomly sending troops won’t cut it; you need a well-thought-out plan. Here’s how to make every attack count.
Before deploying troops, scout the enemy base. Identify weak points such as exposed storage or poorly placed defences. Exploit these vulnerabilities with targeted attacks.
A balanced mix of troops can make or break an attack. Use Barbarians and Archers for a basic assault, but don’t forget to add Wizards for splash damage, Healers for support, and Wall Breakers to breach defences. Tailor your army to the specific base you’re attacking.
Spells can turn the tide of battle. Use Rage spells to boost your troops’ damage, Healing spells to keep them alive longer, and Freeze spells to disable key defences like Inferno Towers. Timing and placement are everything.
Crafting a balanced and effective army strategy goes beyond troop selection. It’s about deploying them in a way that maximises their potential:
Directing your troops to the core of the enemy base is vital. Use Wall Breakers and a few initial troops to create funnels, guiding your main force straight to the enemy’s heart.
Your heroes, like the Barbarian King and Archer Queen, are invaluable. The King can soak up damage and clear out buildings, while the Queen can pick off defences from a distance. Use their special abilities wisely to gain an edge in battle.
Reinforcements from your Clan Castle can provide the extra firepower needed for a successful raid. Coordinate with your clanmates to ensure high-level troops are ready for your attacks.
Protecting your Town Hall is crucial, as it’s the centrepiece of your base. Here’s how to ensure it stays standing:
Placing your Town Hall in the centre of your base surrounded by defences makes it harder for attackers to reach it. Alternatively, some players opt for a “Town Hall Sniping” strategy, placing it outside to protect their resources and gain easy shield time.
Keep your base layout unpredictable. Regularly changing your defensive setup can keep attackers guessing. Incorporate hidden traps, such as Teslas and Bombs, near your Town Hall to surprise and deter enemies.
Avoid rushing to upgrade your Town Hall until you’ve sufficiently upgraded your defences and troops. A balanced base is more effective in both offence and defence. Focus on building a solid foundation before advancing to the next level.
Now, let’s dive into the best attack strategies for each Town Hall level. Keep in mind this is just a guide, and everything here is based on player’s personal experience (up to TH12).
TH2-TH3: Giants and Archers
For these lower levels, the Giants and Archers combo works wonders. Start by luring out enemy Clan Castle troops and the Mortar.
Additionally, Deploy Giants to take down the Mortar, followed by Archers to clean up behind them. This strategy is consistent and effective for three-star attacks.
At TH4, unlock the Balloon, an OP troop. Use Archers to lure and eliminate enemy CC troops, then deploy Balloons to target Air Defenses and Archer Towers. This combo is devastating and ensures victory.
TH5 brings tougher defenses like Wizard Towers. Use Giants and Wall Breakers to breach walls, followed by Wizards for destruction. Don’t forget to utilize Clan Castle troops like Hog Riders to deal with key defenses.
Similar to TH5, but with the addition of Heal spells. Giants tank damage while Wizards provide firepower. Use Heal spells strategically to keep your Giants alive when facing Wizard Towers or Giant Bombs.
Mass Hogs is a powerful strategy at TH7. Start by luring out enemy CC troops and the King. Deploy Hogs surgically across the base, and use Heal spells to keep them alive near Giant Bombs or Wizard Towers. Simple, yet highly effective.
Mass Dragons dominate at TH8. Use Lightning spells to take out two Air Defenses, then funnel your Dragons toward the final Air Defense with the help of your Barbarian King. Once the last Air Defense is gone, sit back and watch the carnage unfold.
TH9 is where things get more advanced. The Queen Charge Lavaloon is a top-tier strategy. Start by charging your Archer Queen into the base, supported by Healers, to take out key defenses. Then deploy Lava Hounds and Balloons to finish the job. It’s a complex strategy but highly rewarding.
An underrated but powerful strategy at TH10 is Electrone Lavaloon. Send a Battle Blimp filled with Electro Dragons and Balloons into the core of the base. Clone them and watch as they obliterate critical defences, making way for your Lava Hounds and Balloons.
TH11’s best strategy isn’t E-Drags but Zap Super Archers. Zap out the Eagle Artillery and use your Queen to clear one side of the base. Deploy Super Archers supported by Healers on the opposite side, and funnel them into the core. This strategy is easy to perform and highly effective.
For TH12, Super Witch Smash is a beastly strategy. Create a funnel using the Grand Warden and Flame Flinger, then deploy your Super Witches with Heroes to wreak havoc. Keep them alive with back-to-back Rage spells, and use a Jump spell to access more compartments.
That’s all you need to try hands-on. Mastering Clash of Clans is all about strategic thinking, careful planning, and a bit of creativity. Whether you’re launching a massive raid or fortifying your defences, these clash of clans strategies will help you achieve victory. So gear up, chief, and lead your clan to glory! May your attacks be devastating and your defences unbreakable.
