Without freeze I think tanking them is the best bet. Send 3-4 hounds or golems in their range and they are nothing.

Bumping this, I think this video is really good. I'm just gonna run a 9.5 version of this base for a bit just to test the theories.culdeus said:
He uses his towers in a slightly different way. Teslas protect queen which is centered, and difficult to access. The effectiveness of the teslas as point defense near the queen in the way he used them was extremely effective. His base basically forces you to use 2 golems to get the queen and accomplishes the task of not giving up too much. I think the queen and compartment to the edge combo is exceptionally effective. The rest is a little iffy to me, but really it may not matter.
It's an easy 2 star, but who cares. Last few wars every base we have is an easy 2.

LOL, unpack that a little for me i.e. relevant.
I'm not a fan of the constant change for the sake of change because a group of very elite, dedicated followers figure out how to exploit a high level base but that is a very small group of highly visible players. There are thousands of videos online showing how to be a particular base but there is no way it covers even 10% of the game. Leave the damn game alone for a while and let us enjoy it.

2nd spell factory for a new DE spell?
That's rumored

It's pretty clear the developers haven't really played the game in a year. Nobody uses dragons for anything but noobs and TH7/8 spam war raids. Dragons issue isn't their health/dps it's their speed and attack speed. So they think they give air raids some sort of boost by giving them a better air troop, then completely nerf them by doing an extra air sweeper. I never had any intention at all of doing level 4 drags now that we have the +1 upgrade thingy.
I'm really not sure what their overall objective is. I assume it's to give people the ever raising bar of the impossible to get 3 star at their own TH requiring ever more gems and money. I guess that's it. We've already seen the huge impact as people are finally taking advantage of the queen AI in base design. Now you just bury the queen point two air sweepers and for the most part a TH9 is going to be an impossible air 3 star for anything short of 20/20+.
I mean, yeah hogs are great and all but most bases we see are really even harder to hog than air and hogs at TH10 is a joke for all but the most stupid bases.

2nd spell factory confirmed - not sure if it's just DE only?
Going to see how this plays out before I take my shattered and cold blooded skulls and go home.
Start hiding elixer.

There is a new barracks training screen which puts all the training in one place.
Couple of things to notice:
1) Second spell factory icon in the new barracks training screen.
2) When he zaps the AD during his attack, watch the gold storage next to it. It seems to have some sort of shield... rumored that maybe you can't zap storages anymore. Which would be awesome.

The fact they did kill xmod last update basically trumped any nonsense they did. I didn't forsee that they would be quite so successful.

Can't say I'm that surprised. Lavaloon is a pretty easy 3 star attack for TH10's on TH9's for good players. As a not-good player, even I pull this off most of the time. An air defense buff to TH9 makes sense in that regard. Now you're going to have to work harder for that third star. So is the other clan. No biggie.
The new dragon is just to be like "cooool, new dragons" IMO.

Yes. Might be the best part of the update.
And anything that nerfs air attacks is cool by me, so I welcome another air sweeper.

At this point I don't get why they are nerfing anything. A max th9 is VERY difficult to 3 star by another th9. At minimum you need 20/20 hero's and even then it's a 50/50 at best.

Will be awhile before I have an ending I like better than this one. Picked up three stars after whiffing on last several attacks, but this is what it looked like with one second left. Took the full three minutes, so replay time = actual time.

I'm not sure I can remember the last legit TH9 3 star on us or by us with a max anti-3star base that wasn't tam. It's very rare we see or have a TH9 above 20/20 most move to th10 at 15/15 or 15/20 people usually max out their base at about the 15/15 point and don't see the value in sticking around any further. (I don't really blame them) I mean one hive vs. crystal failed in their first 18 attacks. They have mostly high level hero th9s and they are struggling now.
Loons under rage can certainly push through a sweeper. If you put them somewhat centered covering adjacent areas it's a beating, but not impossible.
It's pretty clear they make by far the most money on heroes and want to continue to get people to push and gem heroes.

Well, we don't know what the 2nd SF is about. It might be a big boost to offense.

Yes, it's been pretty effective versus our composition. These 2 star clans are pros at 2 starring TH10 bases and let their TH9 just gowoppy everything for 2 and go back and clean out the low TH9 that they need to cover the high TH9 3stars we get. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

That seems fake to me. New spell seems legit.
If you watch the sneak peek videos, they show the dark barracks tab, but there is no new dark troop. None of the videos show the spell factory tab :tinfoil:

I've resigned myself that this must be part of any successful 3 * war raid at this point. All air can't do it, hogs need help and nothing else seems to be effective.
And heroes...always heroes.

Yeah, I'm not talking about shattered or CB. I'm saying pure GoWi** for two stars because they're nerfing the #### out of everything else.

If Laloon is nerfed (as if it wasn't difficult enough to execute already) and TH9-10s all configure for anti-hog, we have no choice but to GoWi**
Really takes the skill out of warring.
I don't understand what the freaking hold up is with this draft. It is FRIDAY after all.

The skill is executing 3 star raids with low heroes. Once SC saw people being able to do that and they weren't spending any gems they started altering stuff, first the hog nerf with DBG 1.5x and anchored heroes, then the skeleton traps, then the anchored heroes with a tiny aggro radius.
They have added nothing to the game to help offense except hounds in the past 18 months or so and obviously they regret that. It's clear what their motivation is, $$$$$.
