New Clash of Clan May Update – Skeleton Spell + New Troop?
Like already spotted in yesterday’s Sneak Peek we saw the Dark Spell Factory Level 4, obviously bringing us a new Dark Spell. This new Spell is the Skeleton Spell, available at Town Hall 9
Here you can read everything about yesterday’s Sneak Peek:
The Skeleton Spell in Sneak Peek #2
Let’s see what the Skeleton Spell is – you probably assumed the right thing that it will summon Skeletons.
Here’s how much Skeletons will be summoned on all Level:
- Level 1 Skeleton Spell summons 10 Skeletons
- Level 2 summons 12 Skeletons
- Level 3 summons 14 Skeletons
- Level 4 summons 16 Skeletons
What will the use of the Skeleton Spell be?
First of all, you have to mind that you can summon the Skeletons anywhere in the base – because you can drop a spell wherever you like. I think of possible things you can use it for:
- Replace Witches in your attacking against Multi-Target Inferno Tower
- Help Wall Breakers by distracting defenses with a Skeleton Spell
- Help distracting and killing defending Clan Castle Troops
- Luring Clan Castle Troops
- Trigger Traps?
Yes, it will be possible to lure out defending Clan Castle Troops with a Skeleton Spell, but with all defenses there you will probably need more than one of them to get all troops out
The last one is a very interesting part. If those Skeletons could also trigger traps we would see whole new ways to attack bases.
I’m sure that they won’t trigger traps like the Skeletons the Witch summons, otherwise it would be useless to try defending against Hog Rider with double Giant Bombs.
Update! The Skeletons won’t trigger traps (I would be very surprised if they would, but luckily they don’t):
New Troop May 2016 Update?
So far the new spotted Spell Factory from yesterday’s Sneak Peek material was right, but maybe it gets even better. There is also a new regular Barracks Level in the material:
This looks pretty much like the tool the new Clash Royale troop, the Miner, is using. It would also make perfect sense to have a troop that is able to sneak into a base and you can distract with Skeletons from the Skeleton Spell.
I know that I’m only mind storming about it, for those of you who don’t play Clash Royale let me explain the Miner. It’s a troop that can sneak behind enemy lines and attack there with some decent hitpoints. In Clash of Clans, this could be a great way to take down certain defenses by dropping some Skeleton Spells for distraction and let the Miner take it down.
I’m sure we will see in the next days what Supercell has planned, but I’m also a little bit surprised they are now introducing another new troop, but the Bowler is not that old yet.
I’m glad, however, that it is a regular Elixir troop and not a Dark Elixir troop.
