What a good guide. This strategy has been shared in our guild but I still couldn't make it work. With the timing demonstrated so clearly, I'm sure I will do better next war. Thank you kindly. I hope your channel goes from strength to strength. Keep up the great work.
GREAT GREAT video! Suicides are so underrated, and I love that you used them to BYPASS the front tank instead of popping on them,solid 🔥🔥 Now if I can get my timing down on Central Keeps 😂😂
Thanks! Haha yeah, keep timing is a whole different ballgame but it can work - easiest way to figure it out is to time how long it takes for your bombs to reach the end and then how long it takes the spiders and then use the difference as your delay time. Hope that helps and wish you luck!
damn this is really good. feels like a lecture. quick but very well explained. lets go. btw the reason why the order of ur units matter for quick affiliation is because the most left unit gets paired with ur highest bp hero
@@9thCrusade Completely agree - going to make life so much easier, I hope it similar to the Dragonheir system as that’s very handy for quick swapping in different content
My GvG Bomb technique is to start with 2xTanks (5 energy each), then 1xHealer (3 energy each), then the 2nd Healer. This keeps your tanks alive (unless the opposition is so strong, nothing you have will work). Then I wait for 6 energy and send the 2xBombers together, then depending on what is left either Spiders or Epic Wolves for a speed run and/or flying units for the finish.
Did they change the initial “flash” animation for placing champs? In your example it’s a subtle red light. In game now it’s this brighter blushish light which really makes it hard to see the step of the bombers. Anyone else notice this or has it always been like that?
I've noticed that the blue flash seems to occur in live matches now but not in friendly face off, I'm not sure when this changed but I've also noticed that when you click a demon soldier it now covers the time stamp so I'm hoping they will consider fixing both these things in the future. In the meantime, I recommend watching just the front leg and/or the line in the sand. Hope this helps.
The timings for keeps is much trickier than towers, especially against the NM teams I've shown as you'll often go into the ults and be wiped out so it's not something I often do. That said, easiest way to figure it out is to time how long it takes for your bombs to reach the end and then how long it takes the spiders and then use the difference as your delay time. Hope that helps and wish you luck!
So no tank for this strat? Seems like it might be good to have a tank aggro the dps, especially the ults. I realize the bombs need to get past the first unit, but still seems like a tanky unit could help
There is a strategy where you deploy rare tanks then bombs but for the examples I showed, the key is getting the bombs through before Arrogance has a chance to ult so the spiders allow you to deploy at 9 cost, which is faster than if you used tanks.
@@Slate_Gaming no no, i think my wording a bit ambigous. I mean i dont know if my healer which use Guardian set and has 42k+ hp can survive the bomb, while also get dmg reduc from brokkir. I try to build healer that can survive bombing
@@genpotrait2274 Oh I understand now - that would then completely depend on how much BP your opponent has as bombs (especially level 5+) can one shot most I've been up against. That said, even if your healer did survive, the bombs can still take out your other platform DPS and there are strategies to bypass what's remaining. I would focus more on making your DPS higher and faster so the spiders and bombs get killed BEFORE they explode if you want to work on surviving a bomb run.
If you’re up against Torro or Abom there is rng with the stuns but if they don’t hit the back line it’s usually because the spiders have died before the bombs can make it back there. It should still take out the front platform and that then allows you to still complete the run
I'll have more GVG videos for next season but I will say check if any of their units can hit air, if its none or only one you can often time it to avoid their ultimate - like I did with the Arrogance in this video. Good luck!
I may do a video on it in the future but it is not a strategy that I recommend for keeps because of timings as you really don't want to send the bombs into a hero's ultimate. My best advice if you want to give it a go would be to block the front up with a combo of tanks and then send bombs but you'll need your tanks to survive and against these nightmare comps that's pretty tricky.
**NEW UPDATED GUIDE FOR SEASON 4/5**
ruclips.net/video/OmdnzkcPcC8/видео.htmlsi=iUTZpUvsGJFpaIh_
Very detailed ;o most cc's are so lazy when it comes to gvg guides. thanks!
You're welcome! I love getting into the details so I'll always aim to provide as much as possible in all my vids
I blame GvG for not being interesting enough for most people to care much.
most ccs are to stupid for gvg, thats the point. Most CCs are in low GvG guilds also
Very good info. I knew bombs were supposed to be good but never knew how to use them. Thanks!!!
You're welcome! Best of luck!
Came here for the very solid guide, but I have to mention: what a great voice and cadence! It was nice listening to you.
Thank you!
Thank you, I think it's about time I start takin gvg seriously

Thanks! Yes, the quick affiliation is very useful though I always double check it as sometimes it doesn't always reorder them correctly.
@@Slate_Gaming if u swap gear, restart game, it doesnt happen again...
Very true but sometimes I forget I've tweaked gear in between so its better to be safe and double check!
@@Slate_Gaming oh man i cant wait for the next update where we finally can save gear sets xD that feature cant come soon enough
@@9thCrusade Completely agree - going to make life so much easier, I hope it similar to the Dragonheir system as that’s very handy for quick swapping in different content
I finally know how to gvg after so long. Thank you!
Very cool video, I definitely need more variety in my gvg tactics. Looking forward to using this.
This was really informative going to show my entire guild how to do this and we will be GVG monsters!

Ah well this is actually a really nice unique video. Keep them coming.
Thanks! Will do!
Great video! Very well explained and straight to the point! You got a new sub, because I need to watch all your guides now! Haha
Thanks so much for the sub!

Nice, very helpful. I will give it a try.
Best of luck!

Very detailed guide which helps me a lot.
May I ask if you will bomb fortress too? The timing seems completely different.
Yes, the timings are very different and sure I can make a video on how to bomb the keeps
@@Slate_Gaming That would be nice! We are in different server and GVG just released. Looking forward to your update!
I'm always having trouble using the suicide bomb strat against opponent at the end of the central keep placement.

woo I just found your channel.. awesome vid...
good content
Thx 😁👍🏻
Thank you for great info and teaching us❤ you got my subscription ❤
Thank you!
rare skeleton shield soldier do pretty well with my suicide bug strat
Yes they do! That's an alternative way to block the tanks for the bombs to pass through - glad to hear it's working for you
thanks
omg, gvg guides, love to see it! pls more :)
I'm working on more gvg videos so stay tuned! If there is anything specific let me know and I'll look into it
DON'T YOU HAVE ARCHERS THEY ARE VERY USEFUL TO KNOCK OUT ENEMY HEALERS
You're right, archers can be very useful but they don't target the healer if there are ground units parallel, which is why I didn't use them here!
Um ok I was not expecting a vid with so little views to slap so hard
Thanks for saying that!
Allahu Ekber BOMMM 😁
I will still find a way to mess it up every time 🤝
Haha I felt like that when I started out so don't worry, I'm sure you'll get there - good luck!
Idk if 42k++ hp guardian set healer + brokkir passive can survive. Cause no one using bomb after i build this way
The aim isn't to kill the tank with this strategy but to bypass them to take out the platform units so I'm sure he would survive! Brokkir is amazing
@@Slate_Gaming no no, i think my wording a bit ambigous. I mean i dont know if my healer which use Guardian set and has 42k+ hp can survive the bomb, while also get dmg reduc from brokkir. I try to build healer that can survive bombing

@@Slate_Gaming wait, bomb can reach the furthest back platform unit?
@@genpotrait2274 Yes! See 4:45 for example
Is using 2 spider 1 bomb lvl 4 is rng? I tried several times but sometime backline not died

@@Slate_Gaming i had trouble when facing toro, even the healer died, i still face trouble to complete lol, thanks for the info
We still have 1 day of gvg. Any other strats?

are you a teacher in real life? very detailed
Damn stole my video 🙄 JKJK someone had to do it
I sure as hell know it wouldn’t be me lol I suck at GvG.
