Fireball Ruin Witch

Ruin Witches arrive at TH16 and immediately become the ground meta.

Three stars TH16 and TH17one Town Hall above its own

Ruin Witches unlock at TH16 and their skeletons keep spawning on top of defences rather than behind the pack, which is what makes them different from every witch that came before. Paired with the Fireball on the Warden, six of them tear open a compartment and hold it while the heroes walk in. This is the army that makes TH16 feel like a step up rather than a bigger TH15.

How to run it

  1. 1Funnel with the Valkyrie and Baby Dragon on opposite corners, then Super Wall Breakers on the wall you want opened.
  2. 2Fireball through two walls into the compartment holding the first Scattershot.
  3. 3Send all six Ruin Witches into that hole, Healers behind the King on the same side.
  4. 4Rage the Witches as the skeletons start spawning, and hold Invisibility for the walk across open ground.
  5. 5Royal Champion and Headhunters take the far side and hunt the enemy Queen.

What beats it. Heavy splash around the core kills the skeletons faster than they spawn, and the Witches stall. Against a base built around Scattershots and Wizard Towers, take the Dragons.

The other TH16 armies

Same camp space, different answer. Fireball Ruin Witch is the one to drop when the base suits it, not the only one worth learning.

If this army keeps failing, check the account

Fireball Ruin Witch assumes the hero equipment listed above and a lab that has kept up. If yours has not, the army is not the reason the attack is falling short. Paste your tag into the reviewer and it will tell you what to upgrade first.
