5 best Town Hall 12 attack strategies in Clash of Clans

Reaching the highest Town Hall level, currently TH16, in Clash of Clans is a very long journey, requiring you to constantly level up different buildings and manage and reconstruct your base according to the increasing competition. It also demands consistent exploration of new army composition and attack strategy since you can't afford to lag behind in performing multiplayer raids while you level up TH and face harder enemy bases to conquer.

Besides leveling up the Town Halls, climbing up the Trophy League tiers also pits you against stronger foes, requiring you to hone your attack and defense strategy.

To that end, this article discusses the five best attack strategies for those at the Town Hall 12 in Clash of Clans.

Top 5 Town Hall 12 attack strategies that Clash of Clans players should try out

Below are the strategies that you would need to know for dominating in raids and wars when you are at Town Hall 12.

5) Hybrid (Hog Miner with Queen Charge)

Hybrid remains one of the most consistent and versatile strategies for Town Hall 12 in 2025. It revolves around using a Queen Charge to carve out a section of the base, then sending in a combined army of Hog Riders and Miners to clean up the rest. This strategy is highly effective in both multiplayer and Clan War attacks due to its adaptability against various base designs.

Army composition:

• 5 Healers
• 15 Miners
• 15 Hog Riders
• 5 Wizards
• 4 Wall Breakers
• 5 Balloons
• 3 Rage Spells
• 3 Heal Spells
• 2 Freeze Spells
• Siege Barracks/Log Launcher
• Clan Castle: Any troop to your preference

4) Yeti Smash

Yeti Smash is a dominant ground attack strategy at Town Hall 12 in 2025. The Yetis’ ability to summon Yetimites makes them ideal for tanking and clearing defenses. Pairing them with Bowlers and a Log Launcher creates a deadly push through the core of bases. This strategy is highly recommended for Clan Wars.

Army composition:

• 6 Yetis
• 10 Bowlers
• 5 Healers
• 5 Wizards
• 3 Rage Spells
• 2 Jump Spells
• 2 Freeze Spells
• 1 Poison Spell

3) Super Bowler Smash

Super Bowler Smash has overtaken BoWiBa as one of the strongest ground attack strategies. The high damage output of Super Bowlers, combined with Yetis and Healers, allows players to smash through compact bases. It is highly effective when paired with a Log Launcher to open the core and Heroes to provide tanking and support.

Army composition:

• 4 Super Bowlers
• 4 Healers
• 4 Yetis
• 5 Wizards

• 2 Jump Spells
• 2 Freeze Spells
• 1 Poison Spell

2) Electro DragLoon

Pairing Electro Dragons and Balloons makes for one of the best attacking strategies in Clash of Clans. Electro Dragons are skilled with breathing thunderbolt that passes through multiple buildings, provided they are placed closely, causing colossal damage. Balloons are another aerial troop that glides through the sky and drops bombs on its targets.

Although both these troops have slow movement speed, they still make for excellent army composition, requiring you to use Rage Spell to be boosted.

Before deploying your army, try to hit Air Defenses with your Queen's Giant Arrow, following a decent funneling via Heroes. Once done, deploy Electro Dragons and Balloons, and use Freeze Spells on whatever inflicts lethal damage to these units. Moreover, try to keep this procession under your Grand Warden's aura and hit his Life Gem's ability to briefly make them immune to incoming attacks.

Army composition:

• 8 Electro Dragons
• 8 Balloons
• 6 Lightning Spells
• 3 Freeze Spells
• 1 Rage Spell
• Stone Slammer
• Clan Castle Troop: Lavaloon, Baby Dragon, and Freezing Spells.

1) Queen Walk Lavaloon

This air attack tactic takes a lot of work to master, but once done, it's good enough to get three stars in multiplayer and clan war attacks. This attack strategy requires a high-level Archer Queen, at least level 45.

Army composition:

• 5 Healers
• 24 Balloons
• 2 Lava Hound
• 20 Minions
• 2 Freeze Spells
• 4 Rage Spells
• 1 Haste Spell
• Clan Castle: Balloons, Stone Slammer, and Freeze Spells

Using the above strategies, players can increase their chances of getting 3-star attacks on almost every raid.

These were the best attacking strategies that players would need to get the maximum number of stars on Town Hall 12 bases.
