Lava Hounds

Lava Hound -- Clash of Clans newest troop, looks as if a Minion swallowed a Golem, if that's possible

. 
Available at Level 6 Dark Barracks and Town Hall 9 - the Lava Hound takes up 30 housing space. Level 3 - they will have almost 8000 health points and deal about 30 Damage per Second (DPS) 

Upon release in offense, these flaming flying chunks of molten rock make a beeline for air defenses. The Lava Hound's focus remains solely upon destroying them until all air defenses are wiped off the map. 

Then these blistering ignominious igneous ash buckets head directly for their secondary targets - other defenses, and finally Lava Hounds zero in on any remaining structures. 

This molten Golem of the skies, moves quickly and distracts all air defense thus aiding balloons and dragons in offense. They will definitely change up air attacking and air defending strategies for Clash of Clans gamers.

With this troop release, it now becomes critical that in attacking your air defenses are spread out. Placement of air bombs and air mines are going to be critical as are the NEW Level 13 Archer Towers.

Bombs, mines and new towers will help slow down the Lava Hounds but it will be tough because those rock hard flying lumps of lava look like a VERY strong unit. 


Going after air defenses much more quickly than balloons, traveling fast and taking massive damage, once nearly depleted, Lava Hounds finally explode into lava puffs. 

These bursts continue burning briefly, damaging everything in the areas they've landed in before they flame out -- like skeletons or Golemites 

Definitely a very cool troop.
