Town Hall to Use In: 8-10 Trophy Range to Use In: 2400-3200+ GoWiPe is extremely similar to GoWiWi (just switches witches and PEKKAs) but can be twice as effective if you use it well. Be careful though; this is a very expensive army, and can go wrong in a heartbeat. Mostly, this strategy is used…

This is one of the most debated issue in Clash of Clans. Should you set you infernos on single-target or multi-target? The answer is pretty simple; you set one on single-target and one on multi-target. This way you can defend against any strategy and any troops. Up in master and champion league, chances are that…
Loot is what defines Clash of Clans. Without loot, there would be no upgrading buildings, no war, and actually no attacking in general.

In the latest update, Supercell released a brand-new trap called the skeleton trap! Contrary to popular belief, this trap is not a seasonal trap, but it is permanent.

First thing I have to tell you is sub-200 farming IS NOT worth it. There is actually very little loot down there since it is mostly just newbies. Every 1 in 25 will be an advanced base but these bases rarely have collector raids and are usually better than most people can take out. Contrary…

This is mixed good and bad news. Supercell will be conducting some maintenance breaks (most likely to fix the Iran/Iraq server issues) so the game will be down. They will be cutting the game 3 times as listed below- -Saturday at 05:45am UTC (1:45 am Eastern US) -Sunday at 05:45am UTC -Tuesday at 05:45am UTC…
STL here. Everyone usually agrees that the mortar is the most important defensive unit, but I have to disagree. Without air defense it would be nearly impossible to defend against balloonion and mass drag. Quite simply without air defense, people would be at almost 10,000 trophies. Balloonion would be the only troop combination people use,…
