Defense against Minions
- An Air Bomb can do splash damage and wipe out and entire Minion group. It will be helpful If you place Air Bomb next to your Storages.
- Have at least an Air X-Bow. With a single hit, your X-Bow can remove a Minion.
- Always protect your single-target defense buildings like Archer Towers or Air Defenses with at least a Wizards Tower. Wizards Towers can do splash damage on Minions.
- Attackers who use Minions for raiding always try to check your Air Bombs first. Never place all your Air Bombs close together around your base.
- Ask for Minions from your Clan mates for your Clan Castle as the defense troops
Attack with Minions
- Carrying a small number of Minions is always useful while raiding. They will be very useful If there are only ground defense buildings.
- Deploy Minions one at a time and far enough from each other to check for Air Bombs.
- Minion are very suited to use for rushing trophies because they are really cheap an take just 2 housing spaces.
- If you use Minions with other flying troops, place Minions in the end, use other troops as the meat shield for Minions.
- Minions are very useful if you want to destroy Air Defense because ADs just can remove a Minion at a time and ADs has a quite slow attack speed.
- There are a lot of strategies that you can use with Minions. Check out some more at: Clash of Clans Attack Strategies
