TH 13 - Hybrid

Start from the side with the strongest defences or the Eagle Artillery.

Deploy the Siege Barracks in one corner and send two Balloons from the opposite corner to check for air traps. Deploy the Queen with Healers and use the Giant Arrow to damage key defences, ideally reaching the core. The Healer Puppet provides 2–3 additional Healers, depending on its level. Use Super Wall Breakers (preferred) or regular Wall Breakers to open compartments for the Queen.

Let the Queen destroy as many key defences as possible. If her health drops rapidly, use Rage before it's too late. Freeze a Single-Target Inferno when it threatens the Queen or her Healers.

Meanwhile, the Siege Barracks clears the opposite side. Deploy the King alongside it so he can break walls and help the Siege Barracks and Clan Castle troops enter the base. Use Baby Dragons or Wizards to clear leftover buildings that might distract your main army.

Once the funnel is ready, deploy the Hog Riders in a slightly spread-out line with the Royal Champion. Send the Miners in a similar formation with the Grand Warden. Keep the spread controlled so both groups move towards the core instead of wandering around the edges. The Apprentice Warden can support either group.

Watch for Giant Bombs along the Hog Riders' path. Identify likely trap locations before attacking and use Heal Spells promptly when bombs trigger. Double Giant Bombs can destroy the Hog Riders before healing takes effect, so plan your route carefully. If possible, use the Grand Warden's ability to protect the troops while crossing dangerous trap zones.

Save the Warden's ability for the core, where concentrated defences can cause heavy damage. Consider the Town Hall explosion when timing it. Use any remaining Rage or Heal Spells where they provide the most value.

Use the Royal Champion's equipment to eliminate key defences or deal significant damage to them. Pairing the King with the Siege Barracks is generally preferred, as he can open walls for the supporting troops.

Depending on the Healer Puppet's level, reduce the number of Healers in your army and replace them with extra Miners, Hog Riders, or cleanup troops if needed.

This strategy works best against bases with multiple compartments. The Queen clears one side while the Siege Barracks and King clear the other, creating a path for the Hog Riders and Miners to sweep through the core.

Key to success: Establish both funnels, keep the main army moving towards the core, and time your spells carefully. With good funneling, walls become obstacles the Miners can ignore and the Hog Riders can leap over.
