The Regular Hybrid TR

“Definition of Hybrid: A combining of different elements, a mixture”

Combining normal troop stats with spellcaster stats is also an example of a hybrid TR but in

general we take it step by step and in this case I am going to discuss and show a Hybrid Tr

that is obtainable by all players. The variations, the difference in troops can vary by player,

level of experience, and the TR items they have. Having said that, in this scenario, normal

trainable troops will be used, like Hcav, Lcav, Catas, Ballistas, Archers & SIEGEWALLS. Players

that have a lot of “rare” troops aka money troops , like Onagers, Flamers, Halbediers can

substitute Hcav by Hussars for example. However, the principle remains the same.

As there are 6 important stats in place we all know 3 by heart.

1) Defense

2) Attack

3) Range

The remaining 3 stats are overlooked by many but are nevertheless important.

4) Life

5) Combatspeed

6) Accuracy

All these stats have an important role in BUFF & DEBUFF. Combining them makes a TR more

effective, and combining troops makes it harder to guess what you will do with them,

attacking wise, for the defender.

If you are able to combine these 6 stats for example, and attack with mixed troops, then the

results are quite good in the general play. Exceptions are of course players that defend “full

city” or have exceptional high TR’s / Cards. But for general play I find this Hybrid doing a

good job and it may suit the general player as it is easy to build and easy to use.

For advanced players it easy to make variations or use higher stats, or different troops. It is

also possible that you end up with 2 or 3 of these Tr’s where certain stats are higher, to suit

your needs.

Basically, in defending and attacking this TR is usefull and we will show examples of both.

For this TR you will need the 6 stats as described above, additional stats are welcome and

maybe you will have look for certain items if you do not have them. But all are obtainable or

you build as close as you can to it.

The 6 stats we discussed you see very well in this TR ( Defense, Attack, Range, Life, CS,

Accuracy)

You also notice that the Combat speed is very high.

And many players have no clue what Combat speed is or does, Therefore in order to

continue, I added the paragraph below to explain the principle of Combat speed and WHY it

is one of the 6 MAIN stats.

Combat Speed explained in Buff & Debuff:

“Battle starts with each opposing forces facing each other at a distance set by the side with the

highest range troops or wall defenses.

At the beginning of each turn, the system checks to see if each of your troop types are in range

of the closest enemy. If they are in range, they attack. The enemy troops do the same, at the

same time.

The closest enemy is decided not just by distance but also by their threat of range. This means

The highest range enemy is always targeted first in the first round of combat. The exception

to this is if Siegewalls are present, Siegewalls are always hit first no matter what. Use that

to your advantage right and it can save many many lives.

If not in range and still alive, your troops move forward according to their Combat Speed. The

enemy troops do the same, at the same time.

This continues until all troops on one side are dead or until 100 Combat Rounds have been

fought. Any surviving troops go home.

Combat Speed does nothing except move the troops forward. It is not involved in the battle

calculation for any other reason. It’s effectiveness is limited solely to slowing the enemy troops

down (CS Debuff) or speeding yours up (CS Buff).

You would normally only use Combat Speed Buff if your enemy has higher range and you

want to close the gap between you and them fast. This has the benefit of cutting the number

of rounds your troops get attacked without your troops being able to engage the enemy.

Obviously, if you are the higher range player, then you want to add as much Combat Speed

Debuff to slow your enemy down for the opposite reasons.

When you have Range advantage, slowing your enemy’s advance can also be done using troops

as blockers. Blockers are troops that are sent in front of the range troops to stop the enemy in its

tracks, the enemy must kill these troops before they can move further forward. This allows your

range troops to continue killing.

The reason you want to avoid your range troops getting in range of the enemy is that they tend

to have low Life and Defense stats. This means they die fast once in direct contact.

Troops with high Defense and Life Stats are more effective blockers and the higher the

numbers, the more likely they are to hold off the attackers. Blockers are combated best by high

troop numbers with high attack stat.

The cap for Combat Speed is currently set at between 375% and -50% but the higher the better

as long as it does not compromise the rest of your Throne Room.”

(combatspeed txt by Giantari)

So the reason the CS is high, is to overcome CS debuff from the enemy defender ( or

attacker) if present and to secure the full cap of CS. Of course you can have 2k,3k,4k CS etc

in your preset. After all it depends on the cards you have available and apply without

compromising too much the other stats. It also depends on the defender. If the defender has

4 k cs debuff or buff and you have 2k cs buff, you will loose on the CS stat. ( You still may win

on Champ + other TR stats.) So CS is Important, do not under estimate it.

So This TR Preset:

Is build from the following Cards. Below. You may/can have same cards or similar.

If you do not have , either crest for them, or use similar cards. IE, you can replace the Throne

by another, either defense , or a mixed card. PLEASE look at the jewels in 6th line, sometimes

they are not the same as the original, they have been altered. For example , Noble Stag and

Percival come with attack in line 6, I have those , but I also have doubles where I replaced

the attack on 6th line to defense. You end up with 2 similar unique’s, but each suit a different

purpose.

As you see the CS buff is obtained by just 2 items. The other stats by the remaining 10 cards.

Will illustrate the troops used by reports below.

On attack

Me Defender

The Catapults And Hcav are Sacrificed.

The CS was higher then Opponent

We both used similar TR’s

In addition Opponent used Spellcasters stats(3620 spellpower) in TR and Shield

Sorcerer defense ( 2 million). And eventhough they protected the opponents troops

from a lot of damage, it was not enough.

Kabams reports show it a bit more graphical & easier. Left side ME, right side Opponent.

Battle lasted 24 rounds

In Defense Attacker Me

Now same TR is used in defense, I loose troops as well, but I loose 1/6 in might compared to

attacker. ( you can of course use 200k in defense or more, your choice)

Attacker Me

The stats , Easy Viewing Attacker Me

You Sacrifice Hcav & Catapults. (* Hcav was not used in defense) ( Wood Guardian was used for defense)

So this is Basically how you use this multifunctional Hybrid TR.

As you can see normal trainable troops were used, you can substitute Hcav for Hussars and

Archers for Flame Archers and Onagers for Catapults. But you can also see that the normal

troops did fine as well.

So to Conclude,

You can tweak this TR, You can Tweak the Troops to adapt to your needs

Keep defense stats minimal at 10k ( or higher)

Keep attack stats minimal at 4k or higher

Add range as high as you can in this preset

Add combat speed minimal 3k but higher if possible

Add life is possible, Life debuff too when you are able to add it.

Use accuracy as high as possible, it will make you kill more troops effectively

Use accuracy DEBUFF when you have it.

Add as much attack debuff as you can without compromising other stats too much

ALWAYS use siegewalls. They can be trained so use them.

Even with Lower TR items you can come close the obtainable goals.

2nd example

Remember, do not always use the same presets, mix your attacks especially in

prolonged battles, as you will become predictable and your defender will adapt

eventually.

buffs/debuffs and specific buff/debuffs.
