[Strategy] HoGoWiPe Strategy

When you enter into TH8 or TH9 most of the strategies fail to get 3 stars from TH8 and TH9. Even the GoWiPe strategy fails most of the time. So there is a solution to get 3 stars from TH8 as well as TH9. The solution is to use the HoGoWiPe (Hogs, Golems, Wizards, Pekkas) strategy. This is same as GoWiPe but the Hogs play important role in this strategy!

I have tried this strategy many times and have been successful to get 3 stars with ease most of the time.

Now its time to explain this strategy in 4 easy steps:

Step 1. Selection of Side for Deployment of troops

This is an important step while doing HoGoWipe Strategy. As this strategy uses high hit-points and high damage units, we need to take care that most of the single target defenses such as Teslas, Cannons, Archer Towers) get destroyed first. This forces us to attack on that side which has most of the single target defenses.

Step 2. Deployment of troops and spells

The main objective of golem is to distract as many defenses as possible thus protecting your rest weak HP troops. So try to drop the golem where maximum defenses attack on him, and drop the second golem the same way but 6-7 tiles away from the other one. Next, drop wizards behind golems to destroy the nearby buildings. The objective is to quickly wipe out all buildings that would prevent your pekkas from targeting the core. Also try to destroy defenses which are located in the outermost layer with the wizards. Later drop wall breakers in the group of 2 to break the first and the second layer of wall so that your army get into the core and rage those WBs so that your WBs stay alive and do high damage to walls. After clearing the path for pekkas to get into the core, drop all of your pekkas, Heroes after all the nearby buildings are cleared. Heal your army as per requirement and place rage when your army enters the core. It would be good if you take most of the benefit from rage spell by trying to drop in such a way that maximum troops get raged.

Step 3. Deployment of Hogs

When all of your troops get deployed, find those defenses which are harder in reach of your army to destroy it and is damaging your army safely. As u find that defenses, deploy 2 hogs on each defenses (Yes, only 2 hogs are sufficient to destroy defense as the defenses are busy destroying your army) and be careful that the defense is been attracted to your army or else that defense will destroy your hogs in 2-3 shots! Mostly these defenses are those which are on the outer layer and in left and right corners

Step 4. Dealing with Clan Castle troops

 When the Clan Castle troops get triggered, drop rage on the wizards when the cc troops are closer to the wizards. And no need to lure CC troops when using this strategy. After deploying all the troops and spells nicely, nothing can stop you army from getting 3 stars. If you fail getting stars don’t get sad, even i took 2-3 chances to master it. And this strategy is not too difficult, just practice 3-4 times and you will get mastered in it!

Army Comp TH8: 5 Hogs, 2 WB, 1 Pekka (1 CC Pekka), 2 Golem, 15 Wizards. 1 Rage, 2 Heal.

Army Comp TH9: 7 Hogs, 5 WB, 1 Pekka (1 CC Pekka), 2 Golem, 16 Wizards. 2 Rage, 2 Heal.
