I personally think that having some kind of ore mine in the second part of the builder base would be an amazing opportunity cuz it’s literally a massive cave.

Love the abilities of our heroes. It has brought much more depth.

Thank you for uploading this video. Really helpful and looking at it at more of a long term investment than just what's good currently and appreciate the emphasis on the RC equipment. I was worried I'm not up to date with her equipment but I've noticed in almost all my attacks her equipment doesn't matter as much than with the other three heroes.

Vampstache can be good but its niche Its not really worth running rage vial ONLY if he is with the main army, since rage spell increases the damage even more + benefits whole army. This frees up a slot for something like vampstache that can give you extra attack speed, which will help him start attacking buildings faster, plus the ability to sustain with self heal. Although I think vampstache only affects the attack speed and not the dps (besides passive), meaning he would deal less damage with each swing. Rage spell can make up for that under gauntlet, where you want to clear alot of high value buildings

Awesome video! I could have gone with the giant gauntlet to 24 with the help of this event, but I changed my mind and I will be upgrading the healer puppet. It makes you a versatile attacker and I only have it at level 9 at th16😅

i think if the giant arrow had a few second timer where you can tap the screen to determine the direction it fired, it would be playable

🔥🔥needed this video ty bro

I think another thing to take account is the hero pets. For example for the royal champion I wouldn’t upgrade the vitality vial if you have the fox but if you don’t then it’s not a bad upgrade choice.

Thanks for this. I just came back from the game. You've come a long way Itzu. Still remember the FPC wars back in the day.

I didn’t have the haste vial upgraded (was worried about the RC dying too quickly, I had Royal Gem + Hogs) until I heard you say it’s by far the best RC equipment, decided to use all the ore I saved up to get it to lvl 15, replaced Royal Gem, and it’s been working great 👍

Hi itzu, I just wanted to add one thing. The giant arrow may not be viable at higher levels but it is incredibly strong at lower town halls. Especially at th9 where it one shots all defenses except the x bow. This way you can take out two air defences with arrow and the other two with zap for your zap dragon attack and then its basically unlosable. It also works very well with lalo.

I am on early th14 right now and giant arrow is my fav skill for the AQ since th13. With sniping 2 air defences it was easy for me to get 3 stars from th14 as a th13 myself.

Great videos Itzu! Love the consistency of informational and fun/entertaining content!👏

Your trophy pushing and clan wars videos are so match better (in my opinion), your attacks are just mind blowing... I hope that you will do more of them soon.. Keep up the hard work man!

iTzu I have an idea on what Clash should do for heroes when they are upgrading. Make a new building called The Hero Laboratory. It would work just like how we upgrade regular troops while upgrading you can still use them in attacks they just stay at current level. With Ore being so scarce and important, Clans are warring 3 times a week just to get more ore and no one wants to clan war when they dont have heroes! This would be the best quality of life update for clash of clans. Its called Clash of Clans for a reason we want to be at our most powerful while warring against one another Heroes are the name of the game! Keep up the great content iTzu!

Great vid, I needed this. So i keep hearing that the Pro scene is to easy, just an idea, what if they didnt have hero equipment what so ever.

Hi @itzu, I've one suggestion for you that you can review or discuss with super cell if possible to do it in the next update... Since most of us upgraded all of heroes equipments.. and the thing is some times we start the attack but still we didn't deploy any of troops or heroes and forget to change the heroes equipments or we want to change one of them before starting the attack depending on the base layouts. So if supercell makes it possible to change the equipments before starting the attack just like Ground/Air Warden Thanks for reading ❤

Great vid, could you also make a tier list for attack strategies? Or just showcasing which ones are good right now?

Highly appreciated for your Analysis and presenting the tier system. 👍

I modified the 9 healer charge for th12 and it is awesome and so fun! I also usually use super dragon in cc. Valkyries in cc is also nice since they save time

great vid man !! very informative

Amazing video as always. Thank you Itzu

Great video. I would have done things different if I could go back in time. A video like this is a must for players new to equipments and ores.

Thank you, very helpful!

Ty for this information itzu

Just like other games, we should be able to clear our hero ores and start over. Call it a Respec. Maybe charge 500 gems for the first one, 1k for the second, etc. Like I said, it is a regular thing in other games and it would help people reallocate points to powers they actually use, rather than just filling in as the new epic/powers come available.

For king rage vial and giant gauntlet is the best you can also use vamp stache it's good for queen I personally use basic equipment but healer puppet or frozen arrow is good as well .for warden healing tome and eternal tome are the best rage gem and health gem can be used for specific army. For rc I again use normal equipment you can use anything for her

This video was exactly what I needed

Man, you are amazing, it's so rare to find someone who's very skilled and also knows how to communicate his knowledge, you're the best, your videos help a lot, keep it going! 💪💪💪

Great overview and I love the charts!

Hi Itzu quick question , are you not upgrading the vampstache and barb puppet bcs you are saving ores for the upcoming rc epic equipment?

I play E drag(th 13). Always using vampstash+eq boot for king(king rarely dies). Heal puppet+frozen arrow for queen Heal-eternal tomb for warden.

Hi Itzu and thank you for your content it helps me and getting 3bstars wow your awesome and I am using your name itzu as a supporter too ❤❤🎉🎉🎉

- 🗡️ The Barbarian King's best equipment setup is straightforward, involving the Gauntlet with rage vial due to exceptional synergy. - 🧪 Leveling up crucial equipments like the Barbarian King's Gauntlet to pivotal levels (15, 18) significantly boosts power due to statistical jumps every three levels. - 👑 For the Archer Queen, avoid the giant arrow and prioritize upgrading the invisibility vial, healer puppet, and frozen arrow, adapting choice based on strategy. - 🎯 It's essential to achieve certain equipment levels, such as 18 for the Frozen Arrow, to maximize efficacy in combat. - 🔮 The Archer Queen's invisibility vial is highly effective even at lower levels (15), focusing on utility over max level upgrades. - 🛡️ The Grand Warden's equipment lacks clear hierarchy, supporting flexible strategies either as a supporting or primary hero. - ⚗️ Combining the Grand Warden's healing or protective abilities with appropriate equipments like the life gem enhances specific troop strategies. - 🌀 Customizing the Grand Warden's loadout with the rage aura or fireball can amplify hero charges and troop deployments in specialized attack plans. - 🏹 Prioritize upgrading the Grand Warden's equipment first due to its significant impact on attack strategies. - 🤺 The Royal Champion's equipment, while powerful, is not as critical for upgrades compared to other heroes. - 🌪️ Hast Vial is the top choice for the Royal Champion, providing the most benefits across all strategies. - 🛡️ When deploying the Royal Champion with other troops, the Royal Gem is more beneficial than the Hog Rider Puppet for added damage. - 📊 Avoid upgrading similar level equipments (like the Hog Rider Puppet and Royal Gem) interchangeably as their benefits are nearly equal. - 🎭 Use resources wisely; focus on upgrading equipment that offers more varied and potent attack options. - 🎚️ Stick to key upgrade levels (15, 18, 21) for equipment like the Barbarian King's Giant Gauntlet and Archer Queen's invisibility tools. - ⚖ Consider the Warden and Archer Queen as higher priorities for equipment investment compared to the Royal Champion and Barbarian King.

The real question is if you have the standards maxed, is it worth maxing out less powerful/more niche equipment or just saving for the next broken legendary… Cuz one additional thing to note is with fireball, I and many others don’t have rage gem maxed For fireball to be good you essentially have to max out 2 equipment and in the end can’t use eternal tomb which is so good always. Doesn’t seem worth the investment

Thx Itzu 😊

Thanks👍

For TH14plus King- Eq boots+Rage (When in rage u dont want to keep breaking walls.) Queen - Healing Puppet and invisible is a must Warden - Avoid The fireball and life gem rest 3 are good. Rc- Hogpuppet + Royal Gem. . After getting these upto 15 try to get one of each hero to 18

@Itzu what do you think of healer puppet/ice arrow combo with an early ability to free up 42 troop space?

Hi itzu i tried double hero charge army you showed in my attacks and most of the time i can swag 9 rocket loons and 4 spells (I'm th 13) and i can triple th 14s 80 percent of times( i used to do with qc lalo too) and the funny thing is i once took life gem and eternal tome by mistake in war but i still tripled semi max th14🥳(lv 5 rage gem lv 17 fireball)

Giant arrow is great with healer puppet on and air attack. You can take out all 4 air defenses with lightning spells and giant arrow and still have spells and a full army left. I use it on th9, th10 , th12 and th13 and get 3 stars because of it, even in war

Awesome video and great explanation but one thing i would not agree with is RC shield, i think you should try hoggs spawn and shield togather its clears remaning defences and save m TF attacks

Some creators have leaked info on RC epic equipment, some rocket thing (which lets RC fire some shots from afar). How will the upgrade priority change with it? Coz i have just reached th15 and i am considering whether to lv up haste vial or just max out shield as that would sit well with the upcoming epic equipment.

If you uploaded a video like this earlier my life would be better. But greate video I'll start upgrading my equipment this way.❤❤

Vampstache is very underrated. Mine lvl 14itself keeps him alive almost 80 percent of attacks. If need for funneling of backend in edrag spam think vamp has its place

Th 15 here. I use gauntlet and eq boots on king because i use heros to clean up the base and the eq king allows my queen to get inside more and get anything left in the middle

I think the haste vial is great at th16 with the spirit fox but for th14 and 15 the hog rider puppet provides similar dps with more safety, since the royal champion easily dies if locked on by a single or monolith towards the end of the attack.. so as a th14 i will be using the hog puppet with royal gem..

Nice. So after I spent time and effort in upgrading the GW Fireball since it was Epic, apparently it's still not as useful as the Life Gem.

One account I did hog puppet the other I did haste vial using the same smash attack I find the hog puppet works better when I find single infernos in legend attacks . Otherwise it’s a draw imo I send rc alone on backend

I’m a townhall 11 and the giant arrow is completely broken in my opinion I’m able to quite easily 3 star max town hall 12s. Maybe it’s just not good latter on but the value I get from its crazy. It’s also fun

Would you consider yetis high hp or low hp? I use a yeti bat attack and currently use et and life gem for the warden. Don’t know if I should upgrade healing tome and use that

hog puppet really op on th14, mostly my rc is dead when single inferno lock on, but now with hog puppet i dont have to worry about it again, invis for a second is real bonus + 9 hogs is no joke

Thx!

Ever tried the haste vial and the seeking shield together? Just curious. I have not as my haste vial is not upgraded yet.

Great video. Another reason to hold off investing in RC - surely we are now waiting for an RC epic (who said Rocket Spear?) which might change the priorities.

Hi itzu any idea if Supercell would put fireball in the shop? I havent bought it on my main!!!

Itzu, do you have any news about the pro mode?

i am th14, with max basic equiment of royal champion because i only do hydra + super archer blimp in which RC have saved my attacks unlimited times

Yo itzu on what device do you play

Great video! Appreciate you putting it all into context

Ya this actually helps thanks

It may not be the most optimized, but i have a lot of fun with the Hog Puppet on my RC cuz i send her in with the Warden and (if ive already taken out the TH) I'll pop the lvl 15 puppet + Eternal tome then clone the hogs! Soooo many hogs! 😂 and half of them are invincible.

currently saving on ores because i dont know what to invest in. going to townhall 15 soon, i hope they patch the haste vial soon. so its either between haste vial or rocket spear for me

Best video from the best player. Thank you 🤍

For the king, I use gauntlet and vampstache.Perfect for the hybrid attack.

What is the best equipment for Queen and Warden when doing QC Hybrid at Th14

Thank you itzu

The piece of equipment I wish I invested in earlier than wasting ores on things like the giant arrow is the healer puppet.. It's now level 12 but wish I maxed that earlier

I'll have the ores soon to max either frozen arrow or giant gauntlet and I use qc rr, which equipment should i max first?

The giant arrow is the best equipment in my opinion for the Hydra strategy. Taking out 2 air defenses before you even lay the army is really strong.

Let's talk about Itzu's hero skins. I like the choices of skins for the King and Queen at the intro.

Tried the haste on the RC for a few days. I don’t think it’s that strong and went back to the shield. The haste won’t let you take down 5 defences in the time available. Unlike the shield.

The damage of rage vial is higher than the life aura, also warden attacks faster.

Im th13 and my giant arrow is lev 15. I use it for drag attack to destroy are defence. If you can angle two air def perfectly its a great value.

Maybe they’re going to release an epic equipment for the RC to give her a more important role

What would you recommend as a new th15 with maxed equipment for th14? I have maxed life gem and hog puppet, is it better to max the new haste vial or upgrade the giant gauntlet and frozen arrow first to lvl 24?

If I maxed my seeking shield already should I keep that or max another piece of equipment ?

I hope they add the ability to change equipments on heroes b4 any attack😊

I love the hog rider puppet of the royal champion it is so fun to use

I think vampstache is a mighty good equipment paired with the gauntlet. It just depends on your strategy, as mine is kinda slow using the vampstache do keep king alive for faster destruction is good

Thank for the advises

I think for majority of the population, who are not maxed TH16s, and their main army is edrag spam, earthquake boots is more valuable than the rage vial.

I use riot riders and I have archer queen and barb king alone on one side. I thought vampstahce would be better to keep him alive the whole attack what do you thinm

@itzu can you do some th16 pekka smash

I love the equipment but they need to lower the training time for the troops because it's just an hp increase For 5 days of building no point

Is the reason most pros use hog puppet at the moment more to do with speed racing as they are quicker for clear-up, even though they don't guarantee any high % chance of 3 star?

Thanks. What skin is on your warden?

I was listening to him talk about the warden reading what is ww? I realized it was the warden walk but man I had a good laugh when he said "woot wriders"

Is it worth maxing out frozen arrow, if all my other equipment that I use is lvl 17 or 18, king gauntlet lvl21? I use QC attacks so was wondering. Thanks Itzu for this video!

I believe the hog riders with the champ, especially at max level, is highly underrated. Glad to see you have it here. It has been killing it for me.

Well, I remember that Supercell is going to release a new epic equipment for royal champion. What about that one, should I keep my ore for that equipment?

Free to play player also easy to max just play war regularly, my Gauntlet is 24 max for th15 and Frozen too 21, normal OG equipment all maxed along with healer puppet

Thnkz❤

Hey Itzu, what happened with League King skin?

What level can you use the Fireball with earthquake? 18 or 21?

Epic RC equipment is coming. I would rather wait and see.

I don’t understand why the vamp stash isn’t considered better or equal to the rage vial, it can keep the king alive for the entire attack

Aye man I love my Giant arrow and i already maxed it out

I invested every ores on the giant arrow, now I can three star an early to mid th 14 as a th 13

I was not expecting seeking shield to get overshadowed that fast I can't lie
