Clash of Clans
TH17 air spam wins by deleting Air Defenses first — the Giant Arrow deals double damage to them, and a level-27 Rocket Backpack lands 2,150 penetrating damage.
Clash of Clans
The July 9, 2026 balance update nerfs Dragon Duke (trap damage reduction 40% → 20%), trims Dragon Rider, cuts the TH Guardian's rolling range by 2 tiles, and hands Meteor Golem its biggest buff yet.
Clash of Clans
One war army and one farming army for every Town Hall from TH8 to TH18 — from Mass Dragons and Barch at TH8–TH10 to Fireball Super Yetis and Root Rider Yeti at TH17–TH18 — with the composition reasoning behind each.
Clash of Clans
The proven July 2026 war archetypes are mass Dragons and hybrid at low Town Halls, Queen Charge Hybrid and LavaLoon in the mid range, and Root Rider smash, Super Yeti charge, and Hydra air at TH16 to TH18.
Clash of Clans
Prioritize the Archer Queen's Action Figure, the Barbarian King's Spiky Ball, the Royal Champion's Electro Boots, and the Grand Warden's Eternal Tome — then spend Shiny, Glowy, and Starry Ore in that order across all 6 heroes.
Clash of Clans
Builder Base 2.0 uses two-stage attacks worth up to 6 stars, has no daily attack limit, needs 7-12 stars for the daily Star Bonus, and unlocks B.O.B — a permanent 6th builder for your home village.
Clash of Clans
Raid Weekends run Friday to Monday, each member gets 5 attacks, and coordinated Capital Gold contributions plus smart district order turn Raid Medals into Clan Castle reinforcements and Trader rewards.
Clash of Clans
Clan War Leagues run a monthly 7-war season across 18 league rungs from Bronze III to Champion I, give each member 1 attack per war day, and pay League Medals that scale by tier plus a bonus pool that grows one slot per war won.
Clash of Clans
New Clash of Clans players progress fastest by keeping all builders busy, upgrading heroes and the Laboratory first, and joining a clan in week one across the 18 Town Hall levels.
Clash of Clans
Sneaky Goblins, a Gold-to-Master farming league, and storage-first raiding let TH11-TH18 accounts bank millions of gold and elixir per hour with cheap armies.
Clash of Clans
The Dragon Duke unlocks at Hero Hall 9 / TH15, becomes enraged for roughly triple damage when no friendly air units are near, and works best flown solo ahead of a ground army rather than paired with dragons.
Clash of Clans
The Hero Hall caps every hero by its own level — from level 1 at Town Hall 7 to level 12 at Town Hall 18 — gating all 6 heroes from the Barbarian King to the Dragon Duke.
Clash of Clans
Find a good Clash of Clans clan by filtering clan search for your war frequency and language, then reading the war log win rate, donation ratio, and leadership activity before you join.
Clash of Clans
Three-starring a Clash of Clans war base is a 5-step process: scout the base, match a strategy, build a two-sided funnel, deploy on the weak side, and time spells around heroes and hero abilities.
Clash of Clans
The Queen Charge Hybrid pairs a 4-5 Healer queen walk with 14-20 Hogs or Miners to clear both halves of a base and 3-star most TH13-TH16 war layouts.
Clash of Clans
A Queen Charge pairs the Archer Queen with 4 to 6 Healers to clear one flank of a base; master healer counts, two-sided funneling, Recall timing, and the defenses that kill her — single-target Infernos and Archer Towers.
Clash of Clans
Returning Clash of Clans players face Town Hall 18, a 6th hero in the Dragon Duke, the Hero Hall building, hero equipment upgraded with 3 ore types, and a fully separate Clan Capital game mode.
Clash of Clans
Root Rider Smash pairs 7-10 Root Riders with hero funneling and 4-6 support spells to 3-star TH15-TH17 bases, and it stays the most beginner-friendly high-TH army even after the 2026 nerfs.
Clash of Clans
Legend League starts at 5,000 trophies with a fixed 8 attacks and 8 defenses per day, a 5:00 AM UTC daily reset, and a maximum of 40 trophies per battle across a 4-week season.
Clash of Clans
War weight is the hidden per-item value that decides Clan War matchmaking, and Supercell's 2026 changes weigh both offense and defense — so engineered and rushed bases barely help anymore.
Clash of Clans
The correct Clash of Clans upgrade order is heroes first, then the Laboratory, then offense buildings, then defenses — because offense compounds across every attack you make on the way to Town Hall 18.
Clash of Clans
Upgrade the Archer Queen and Grand Warden first across TH11–TH18, keep at least one hero home during wars, and let TrophyCoach's Upgrade Priority Advisor sequence the other 4 heroes for your account.
