Honorable mentions have to be 2016 Miners and Bowlers. Mass miners easily tripled max 11s for a while after release to the point where top competitive wars would ban them. Bowler spam also completely reshaped the base meta at th11 which has held until today.
TH9 was the best balanced, and the most fun when trying to plan war attacks. GoHo may have been the top strat, but GoLaLo was always my favorite. A golem with heroes, 3-5 wiz, and a few wallbreakers or a jump spell, and you took out the enemy queen, cc, and at least 1 air d, sometimes 2. Then you'd use lalo on the rest of the base.
u know as u go higher in townhalls u get stronger troops its legit every game in existance the main part making RR strong is the fact they break walls easily if u removed that the troop is pointless and would be better off using a golem
@@TheCard1nal people crying everywhere RR is broken but legit any other game the higher u go in levels etc anything ur troops will get stronger than the ones u begin with its just a cycle the big enabler is valks as said and they are being overshadowed by RR
Tears... Hog Rider and Lavaloon attacks were my favourites in 2014, and I was th9. Stopped playing for a decade and now I'm back with my th10. Man, after all those years and so many updates; still, I gotta say this game feels awkwardly cozy.
Not Adding Lavaloon to this list is a War Crime 😂 (Edit:for the people saying its bad its not i could 3 star th11s as a th10 and i was able to push to FLL bc of this troop)
The root rider nerf hurt a bit, but I stopped spamming that shit after the first nerf. This time, the attack evolved into something more like super bowler smash. Still 3 stars a lot of bases.
In the old builder base you could just drop a hero followed by witches behind at any corner of the base and the bats spawned by witches will just 3 star every single base. The strategy was so popular for years until they added a lava launcher.
Hogs were really OP because of how fast they are. Unlike other defense targeted troops like loons and giants, Hogs can cleanup after, meaning you don't need to waste army space with cleanup troops
I remember when I'm TH9 I always used AQ and BK and barbarians and archer army. Back then where you can boost the troops by using the Hero ability 😅 spaming barbarians and archers are so fun
Me scrolling through threw Havocs yt page to watch clash of clans videos im about to watch for the 100 time: 😑 Me when Havoc pots a new clash of clans video: 😱Havoc is still alive and well!!
For root ride strats I'm now having some success with RoWiVa (Root Rider, Witch and Valkyrie), where I just use the queen and king to ready the base (and sometimes Valks to clear external defenses) and then sic root riders and witches onto the rest of the base. Weirdest thing is when I 70% two-starred two THs higher as if the extra DPS from the boosted levels didn't matter (which I recorded and posted on YT cause... WTF). It still needs a bit of prep work, planning and execution skill since I make mistakes when positioning spells like overgrowth to disable defenses temporarily and redirect troops elsewhere, skeletons and Valkyries dying en-masse or being outside of the warden's range for invincibility. And idk what to do with the fourth hero, the champion just KOs defenses and the minion price doesn't seem to fit for a ground attack. But yeah, Root Rider strategies are evolving and pretty sure someone will take my idea and take it a length further, I only came back like two weeks ago.
I do think the blizzard attack strat is still good, especially around th 11-13. Really love it when the core defenses or majority of it gets destroyed.
I still use mass Super hogs as a th13 player. In multiplayer battles, around 30% of my attacks are 3 stars, the rest are two stars. But when I get to tweak my army according to the base in wars, I almost always 3 Star. I have been using hog spam since th7, with only around 5 months of break.
When Brawl stars introduced that one Troop (You know the one) I think I was at Th8 when they came out and boy spamming them was basically the equivalent of Supper giants today if supper giants could sprint faster than sweats on cod Fun times indeed
Gowipe is still my favorite attack til now, I used to sit at the back of the class to do my war attacks, used it since 2nd year highschool, im now a college graduate😂
Yo!!!! i remember Withes skeletons being absolutely busted by Wardens aura... The aura made skeletons being more than two tapped by every defence, basically making MASSIVE Massattack!! I think this one was the most broken ever Idk how it was named...
I got attacked by the Bli-zard strategy but the player gave up after he placed his blimp and lava hound directly above a tornado trap which ended up destroying it and not even getting past the first layer of walls in my base 😂 Such an unlucky play
The fact the super wizard Is normally the one that identifies as a golem everytime I try to attack using him, and it's only good in the blimp is kinda "bruh"
So I use a army that might sound dumb but I am a th14 and I use 2 elo titans 3 pekkas and 7 yetis with wizards and a archer and I 3 star about 80 percent of the time and 2 star the other 20 and I have used it for a while should I change anything or what do you guys recommend
My Mata strat (from TH11 until 14th) pekka with healers Imagine a group of tank troops being healed by several healers (I use Electric spell on air and I finish them off with a earthquake but to also weekend walls) Before that Giants, I figured out if you take out the defence first you'll 90% of the time get 3 stars but with pekka it's slightly harder due to how slow they move however since I'm rushed (troops/heroes/defences) I'm at TH14 with a half th10/TH11 base My hero's are th10 lvl (king is 45) my champion lvl 5 so yeah I've had to go back to the time I used E drags rather than pekka heal strat
i actually didnt realise that lower level root rider is brown while lvl3 is green have been wandering why some rootrider is brown in colour while watching other people's battle replay
I invented atk strategy for th7-th8 I call it drider where u use 5 lightning spell that can take down atleast 1 air defense with 1 healing spell with 12 hog riders and 7 drags Start the attack with taking down 1 air defense with 5 lightning spells then deploy all hog riders to destroy more air defense if their hp is low heal them once all hog riders is dead deploy the dragons to to finish off any defense then deploy the king for clean up
Bruh I still remember using gohog it's my nostalgia hit as I was th9 and my team requires me to 3 star in war or else we loose and I used gohog and i forgot to kill lava hound in opponent clan castle and 1 hog rider left and i builder Hut was left and that lava hound was following my hog and at 1 hp my hog clutched 3 star that was so cool moment i still laughs when I remember this moment while playing game
I literally just do every troop and tell it stops me to do it and I have enough room like I keep doing that it counts spells because I get so much good tap and I destroyed the attacks. Trust me every every freaking town war I’m going to get the seed machines it’s gonna be better.
I’m too dumb to learn an attack off TH-cam, so I actually go to the practice thing, play over and over until I master that load out and then copy it to use in attacks
You forgot to talk about two legendary strategies. The first is pekka hog. Pekka hog is op in th 8/9/10 And the second is aqh minhog. Aqh minhog can just blow-up all th 11/12/13 with just a little bit practice.
The root rider is still currently op after all nerfs. It’s wild. The problem lies in them breaking the walls, not their hp or dps. The nerf they probably need is make them like the pet yak or the siege machine that “bumps” the wall, if you will, before breaking it. Root riders just smash through everything. They’ve kinda ruined the game and made it boring imo.
@@nothingbutstatic I wouldn't say FULL meaningless, but it's almost hard to keep justifying it. Alot of stuff goes through and over walls now. Walls are becoming less and less valuable. It's sad. Cause I've maxed every wall at every town hall and will still continue to do so. But it's almost purely for aesthetics at this point.
@@RobbieRobbiefor aesthetic and to screw up pathing strategies that involve Queen Charge and hero dive can be screwed big time by walls and compartments so walls are not useless, just for the Root rider armies are mostly aesthetic.
I forgot the name of the troop but it was released for the most recent Halloween event if im not mistaken. It was also the #1 most used limited troop. That army pushed me from crystal to titan at TH 11 in under 1 week Edit: lavaloon troop
You’re quite wrong though the most broken root rider combination was root riders/cookie pekka-Valkyrie and frostmite spells. Also lavaloon should’ve had a spot both of those strats made me reach 6k trophies and in row perfect 3star days but I guess your not talking about event troops

In the old builder base you could just drop a hero followed by witches behind at any corner of the base and the bats spawned by witches will just 3 star every single base. The strategy was so popular for years until they added a lava launcher.
I use the variation of this by using giants because the builder hero is an IDIOT and attacks random things 😹😹
To me it´s still mind-blowing that the Valkyrie is now playable again, after being the worst, probably least used troop in the game for years.
I loved using Valkyries in th 9. Seeing them shred bases with rage spells is just so satisfying
So basically, every strategy someone invents, Supercell changes the game to make it difficult. It kind of pisses me off. 🤔🤔
The nerfs to lalo did nothing, it’s been the most used army for a long time
Well I do agree on that but some of those strategies doesn't ever require pulling it off properly like the blimp attack strat
I think supercell loves dragons! They never got big nerf. After the latest update, they got even stronger
Hogs were really OP because of how fast they are. Unlike other defense targeted troops like loons and giants, Hogs can cleanup after, meaning you don't need to waste army space with cleanup troops

Right bro
Easy fix for blizzard nerf is to simply drop your invis first. That way they won’t die when you trigger your blimp
Ive 3 starred max 15s at th14 using blizzard hydra its so op when pulled off properly
The blue walls are some nostalgic moments 😢
Lalo has only 1 troop that hasn't had any levels added since th13/14 and it still is destroying bases despite its complexity for one to master
halloween lavaloon troop is to this day the most broken army ever imo. just spammed them in, dropped spells then closed out. miss that army
