Do you really need that many wizards to clear the junk for Pekka? Need to remember that wizards are a part of the Gowipe, not just Gope. If you use literally half or more of your wizards just to clear junk and they get picked off, what's the point? Today, I'm going to share some replays and some aki-knowledge onto you peasants :P (jks). Seriously though, there are too many Gowipe attacks who waste too many wizards in the beginning and they spread out too wide. With this guide, it will teach you how to get your pekka's inside, with almost just only 1/4 the wizards needed (at most 6).
First let's start with fresh replays from the current war, I am not picking on anyone, but it's just the most recent Gowipes that were used:
Xeton vs Horeb: Army used: 2 Golems, 3 Pekkas, 12 Wizards. Wizards used to clear Junk: 8 / 12 wizards. Wizards that survived the Junk Clearing: 2/8. Wizards left to enter the inside: 6 wizards (4 to be deployed). Overall: 8 wizards used to killed the junk, 6 wizards used to enter the base. In this replay, you see that there were 8 wizards used to clear the junk. It's wasteful, as well as the fact that the wizards will get picked off at the sides. |
Xeton vs Horeb: Wizards used to Clear Junk: 4 / 12 wizards. Wizards Remaining to enter base: 8/12. In this scenerio, only the 4 junk buildings are -distractions- for the pekkas. Which means you only need to clear these 4 buildings in order to advance. You do not need to clear the center stuff, as it will attract the pekka and keep them in line with the middle. Once they killed the Barrack, builders hut, the closes thing to them now, will be the corner Cannon/Archer Towers (which you should have deployed your wall breakers by then). |
Josh Vs Eli: Army Used: 2 Golems, 3 Pekka, 18 Wizards. Wizards used to clear Junk: 8+2/18 Wizards that survived the Junk Clearing: 6/10. Wizards left to enter the inside: 14/18 In this attack, both mortars were being distracted by the giants so wizards were safe from all fires. Pekka path is meant to go through the middle. The 4 X marked yellow are the junks that needs to be cleared in order for pekkas not to go astray (add the right side builders hut for security). A total of 8-10 wizards were used, and spread out in order to clear the junk buildings. The Targets were randomly done by the wizards which some do not need that many wizards. |
Josh Vs Eli Revamped: Wizards used to Clear Junk: 4/ 18. Wizards Remaining to enter base: 14/18. Clearing the junk buildings at the sides, reduces the amount of wizards needed. You may deploy the remaining wizards onto the collects in the middle along with the pekkas, which leads the pekkas directly inside. |
