That’s prob cause u are a e drag player or a lower townhall. Bomb tower is pretty good especially if placed next to key defences like a townhall or eagle artillery because of the death bomb helping to counter a blizzard or a super archer blimp.

Bomb tower is like this extreme counter to a few strat, but absolutely useless to other attacks. Kind of make me appreciate it more, even though it only shine in TH 7 to 10, and then TH14 to 16.

I started playing in 2024. My favorite attack for th7-8 was hog riders still. I was very careful about how I approached with respect to the bomb tower, for the most part I would keep an eye on my hog riders and drop heals accordingly, as well as checking for giant bombs.

So you may wanna re-evaluate what's good and bad, I definitely did with the Beta Minions when I learned that specific strategy. And meeting an Anti-Night Witch base design and proceeding to destroy it with Night Witches also speaks a lot about their quality.
