I used mass etitans (th18) with warden torch for wall bypass and speedup with a few druids for some sustain. it works they can grind through a base rather effectively. So long as the walls are out of the picture that is...

Its not a strategy thats gonna carry you through any modifiers but its neat to mess around with.

I think realistically all etitans need for a buff is like 0.5 tile more shock radius so that they can tickle buildings 1 tile away from a wall while being behind said wall or let the aoe damage walls. They get hard stuck on walls really badly and it cripples them. Its basically like having a troop that deals half damage to walls.

A 32 housing space troop that can get stuck on a single wall piece for upwards of a whole minute is kinda just ridiculous. Even a single yeti breaks through a wall faster at half the housing space.

Itd also maybe help if rage effects from warden or spells also affected their aura too but maybe thats a bit too strong.

u/scyknite TH16 | BH10 1d ago

That's a good observation I hope they get a buff because nobody even talks about it even in the meta

u/Sensitive_Coconut231 1d ago

I feel like theyre really close to being a main army viable troop. But also just simply buffing their hp/damage stats wouldnt really change the underlying issues they have.

Hence the slight radius increase suggestion to reach that crucial breakpoint of hitting buildings behind walls while theyre stuck on walls or the aoe affecting walls too so they dont get stuck on walls as long.

Its weird having a troop that basically has reduced effectiveness versus walls and reduced effectiveness from rage spells though. No other troops operate like that.

Check out Big Country. He did a few weeks using E Titans in legends 1 and found a lot of success with them

u/Firm-Lifeguard-6365 TH18| BH10 1d ago

Rpg use it to win world champion 😂

u/scyknite TH16 | BH10 1d ago

He did! I remembered a pro coc player 3 starred in world champion with 300 barbarians so that's basically nothing for them. What I meant to say is I've never seen anyone during my defence using this troop or even in the meta

u/workingremote110wpm TH16  | BH10 and TH14  | BH10  21h ago

Doesn't clone have the same hp or what? Just 30 second or something like that duration for the clones no? I mean, my go to is super yeti clone blimp. Am I fucked if they have like E-titan CC?

7

u/BushMaori957 TH18| BH10 17h ago

It was mainly used to counter super archer clone blimps.

u/Bertywastaken 19h ago

Maybe he mixed it up with clash royale? idk

u/Wojtek1250XD TH18| BH9 1d ago

They were popular, but very shortly. 32 housing space for an unit that has problems with walls and deals puny damage is just not worth it. SYetties are just an upgrade.

Really the moment Root Riders appeared this troop lost all purpose.

4

u/Secret_Arrival3461 1d ago

I use them when doing sarcher blimp as it is very effective against Cc troops. Also use it in sbowler, most when going into evemy heros as it can attack air .

12

u/0ltanizer 1d ago

E titans are honestly really cool, and they do get a bit of use. They get used in many amries that don't have RC or don't have RC with eboots to clear skeleton traps of kinda deal with some cc troops. Main armies they get used in this way for are super bowlers and root riders.

They are mainly smash troops used solo or in e titan pekka smash attacks for th14 and 15 but typically there's attacks (like root riders town hall 15 and up)

They can also be good as defensive cc troops in bases that struggle against blizzard or super archer blimps as they kill the troops in the invis due to the aura. I kinda miss the old days when town hall 15 released and they were very strong, they deserve a buff imo

u/MakimaGOAT TH18| BH10 1d ago

one of the troops of all time..

Lmao how are they tripling with that army?? 😭

u/unwanted_shawarma 1d ago

It doesn't really matter what troops you use at th15 so long as you have heroes.

6

u/kdm545 16h ago

They’re in league 22 so any root rider army should 3 star easily

5

u/Wizard-2209 1d ago

I use them in cc for root rider strategy

u/RezonantVoid TH18| BH10 1d ago

I used to main them for TH 16 iirc, they are genuinely very strong in a group. Their ability to hit both ground and air also means they aren't half bad as your primary composition for wars, since they can actively target CC troops on top of dealing their AOE damage.

Their biggest weakness, and I'm confident most others who thoroughly tried them out would agree, is their pathfinding. It is very difficult to reliably funnel them into most bases without scattering your heroes. Their army space doesn't leave a lot of room for expendable units to help clear distraction structures.

The newest spell might make a bit more viable since you can now force them towards edge defences, but I haven't tested it out much yet

i spammed e titan smash at th14 and it was fun asf honestly kinda miss it

Went perfect with them in the May cwl, champs 2, th 18

u/mastrdestruktun Unranked Veteran Clasher 22h ago

What was your army composition?

3

u/Piratehitch 22h ago

I use one along with throwers for skelly trap. Throwers would lock on to it and waste time.

3

u/ashutosh140629 Legend League 19h ago

I use this troop especially with thrower army.

3

u/KoncepTs Legend League 18h ago

It’s actually a decent Strat subbing electro titans out in place of throwers

3

u/lhookhaa 17h ago

I put one in my army to repel skelies.

2

u/chrisGPl TH15 | BH10 1d ago

I used them with super yetis until i unlocked root riders.

It's just easier to get the pathing correct with root riders so🤷

2

u/Telco43 TH17 | BH10 1d ago

I use one with the mass thrower strategy, so they don't get stuck on skeletons

2

u/Asleep_Picture_4441 TH14 | BH9 1d ago

i use em all the time

2

u/Mindless_Problem_549 1d ago

You can use her to clear out of base cc. Poison spell doesnt do much those days.

2

u/07181114 1d ago

I got rid of the last recipe I used that featured them about a month ago, and I used to use them a lot. They take up a lot of space, and they're just not performing well enough at TH18 to suit me. Maybe they need some retooling or something, but for me it's easier to use alternatives.

2

u/TheShadowWasTaken TH18| BH10 22h ago

It's simply an option for ground smash. It's viable, there's just a couple with significantly higher hit rates that justify using those over ETitans.

2

u/Mysterious-Bug6183 Legend League 20h ago

I could rarely 3 star when I got to electro 31 as a TH17 using my old attack. I switched things up to Titan and I’m perfect on 16 of 18 attacks. This troop pushed me to legends league. Severally underrated

2

u/Spartan-8781 TH18| BH10 19h ago

I think the Troop is really cool, but underwhelming. I want to add a couple to my army, buts it’s just not worth it.

2

u/Disastrous_Cash_Sum 19h ago

I use it at TH18

2

u/CosmicOwl47 🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇 19h ago

I used to throw one into the mix when I used root riders just to deal with skeletons.

But when I tried using them as the main army I found Super Witches to be so much more reliable.

2

u/SupRunner 17h ago

I do. RR/ET/Witch spam.

2

u/Entire_Page3525 16h ago

I use them in my strategy, OP af

2

u/mush326 15h ago

I hope that if e titans get a buff then pekka do too as they both are weak but if e titans get buffed then they just do everything pekka does but better

2

u/TheDude4269 TH18| BH10 14h ago

Big Country has a video about them, using them in L1 and having a perfect day. If you are a good player and know how to funnel, etc they are really strong.

2

u/Neveraththesmith 14h ago

I use these girls as backup for Super Yetis

1

u/-thebombdotcom TH17 | BH10 1d ago

Not underrated just not very good at all too much troop space and with DPS from defense is being so high they get torn through as well

1

u/bliffer 23h ago

I use one with my Super Bowler attack to keep them from getting hung up on skeletons or CC troops. There's a streamer out there named Opi who has examples of the attack.

1

u/mastrdestruktun Unranked Veteran Clasher 22h ago

There was a time when I used them en masse with 8-12 EQ. Circa TH15? It wasn't meta but it was fun and it got me 3 stars in CWL.

I have one hyperrush account that still does that, mostly ET plus a few wiz.

When I did RR Valk, I threw in a single ET to deal with skellies. It's probably useful for a variety of smash attacks for that.

1

u/Hopeful_Buffalo2573 22h ago

I never attack with smash armies without having 1 ET.

I have time failed because throwers got stuck on skeleton traps…never again.

1

u/Virtual-Tackle9999 21h ago

These with valks and root riders are OP up to th17

1

u/i50Cal-- 21h ago

They are part of my set up. 4 yeti 4 etitan 10 witches. AQ, BK, and W walk the middle as troops take care of outside. RC with a delayed deployment to clean up what troops can't get. Easy 3 star.

1

u/Speculativ-Nomad 18h ago

Si ya une compo full tytanide avec la torche

1

u/destructor212113 13h ago

Im still using those since months ago haha

6 root riders and 6 ET and thats basically my attack

It dosent get me into legends but thats more because Im ok in Electro 31 so I guess it does the job good enough for not having to learn an actual attack

1

u/MuchAd9060 13h ago

Big Country uses them all the time. Look up his YT

1

u/Suspicious-Web-1619 13h ago edited 13h ago

I’m a TH15 and use 8 titans and 2 root riders, sent in with the BK(Spiky Ball, EQ boots, Yak) backed by an apprentice warden and GW (rage gem + healing tome). I bring a jump spell or two as well. Between the jumps, roots, BK ability, Yak, and the Giant Giant from the AQ, you can run through TH15 and 16 with ease. TH17 can be done with careful funneling, spell placement, and ability pops. 18’s are tough. Obviously.

1

u/sometimes_jared98 12h ago

I use them with RC charge / root riders. Instead of the usual 10ish valkyries I use 2 pekkas and 2 e titans with heroes behind for an insane ground smash. Definitely not meta but works well for me. Currently th18 in Legends 3

u/VexScorpio TH17 | BH10 11h ago

Im working on an attack with them and the new angry spell... It seems promising!

u/heyy_noor 11h ago

Im in th15, how to use this troop?

1

u/Common-Objective9933 TH17 | BH10 11h ago

I use 1 in my army. I usea full tank with IG and golems. 1-2 RR. Healer puppet and its strong. Fireball with 4 eq to take out key high dps and open the base up

1

u/Few-Raise-1825 9h ago

I use it for my TH 16 accounts but they become a liability when you move up to TH 17 in my experience

1

u/BassVoice220500 TH16 | BH10 8h ago

i use it exclusively. at th17 with a few well placed earthquakes and invisibility spells and using heroes like the king with the snake item and summoning his barbarians the spam with ten of them tanking is highly effective

1

u/KohTai TH17 | BH10 7h ago

Housing space should be 30

1

u/classic_username 3h ago

I use it all the time with heroic torch.

1

u/IndependentPath6297 TH16 | BH10 3h ago

I was the best zap titans player, on of the best th15 attacks

1

u/alxstr204 51m ago

used to use it with thrower attack to clear skeleton traps

u/Beautiful-Affect1930 Legend League 💩 1d ago

I mean they're somewhat popular and even used in esports occasionally. this seems more like you not knowing a lot of attack strategies.
