If you haven’t read about the last two sneak peeks, they have both matched the “fake” update list almost exactly. So is the update list actually real, leaked information? My leading theory is yes.

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…
