Ice Golem strengths and weaknesses

Strengths

  • Its single target damage is efficient against individual high hitpoint targets.
  • With the 3rd highest hitpoints in the Dark Elixir Troops category, it can absorb a fair amount of damage.

Weaknesses

  • It can only attack ground targets, so it offers nothing against air defences and needs support from units that can hit air.
  • Because it only hits one target at a time, it can be overwhelmed by large groups of defending troops.
  • At 15 housing space it is expensive to field in numbers, so it is usually brought as a small core of an army.
