Clash of Clans is a popular mobile game all over the world. Many players are seeking tips and tricks to master this game. Hope you can use these tips on 9game. Also you can check out 9Apps and find some interesting apps.

1. Don't Get Your Golems in a BunchGolems have a lot of hit points, and work well to protect other, more vulnerable units. If your Golems are all on top of each other, they will do a poor job providing cover for your Wizards, Witches, and the like. Spread those Golems out and use them to 'tank' those defenses while your high damage per second units move in from behind and take out those buildings.

2. Don't Mix Your TroopsStick with a winning, proven attack strategy. Mixing air and ground units is rarely a good idea. Watch others' replays and learn from them. You can adapt the army composition to your liking- but if you've never seen anybody try it, it may be because it's not an effective attack.

3. Hey! Watch Where You're Aiming That Thing!Spell placement. You'll hear this over and over again in my videos. Many battles are won or lost simply by where you drop the spells.

A. Rage spells - Watch closely, know which buildings your units are headed towards, and anticipate their movements. Drop those rages ahead of them, so they use the area of effect longer.

B. Lightning spells - wait for just the right moment. Release your lightning too soon, and you may miss the troops your aiming for. If you're trying to zap those clan castle troops, wait for them to bunch up close together.

C. Freeze spells - Try to drop them over as many defensive structures at once as possible. Know the radius of effect, and time it for when your units need it the most.

D. Jump spells - Don't drop your jump spells where you WANT your units to go, drop them where they ARE going. Again, know each unit's behavior, and try to anticipate their movement.

4. Never Underestimate the Little GuyWatch out for those Clan Castle troops. If not dealt with properly, they can lay waste to a good attack. If you can't pull them out and get rid of them at the beginning of an attack, make sure you're prepared with a lightning spell, or a rage spell and a few extra units, just in case.

5. Don't Zap DragsDon't waste a lightning spell on a Dragon. If a Dragon comes out of the opposing Clan Castle, you'll need to deal with it another way. Save the lightning spell for a small building, or another attack.

6. Clear the AreaIf you're trying to get your units to the center of an opposing village, you'll need to remember that most units head towards the closest standing structure. You'll need to clear the surrounding buildings to the left and the right first.

7. Don't Go For the Gappers'Gap' bases, with inviting little spots for you to deploy your troops, can be misleading. Usually, almost ALL of your opponents' defenses are laid out in a way so that they can fire on that spot the moment the battle begins. Also, the spot won't be so easy to find once the battle starts- and you may have a difficult time clicking on it quickly to deploy more troops.

8. Don't Leave Your Healers HangingMake sure your Healers are well away from Air defenses during an attack. Also, if you're using a rage spell, try to get them within the area of effect for best results.

9. Don't Cross the StreamsWhen attacking a base with two Inferno Towers, it is best to line them up- so that you're only facing one at a time. Two multi-targeting Infernos can incinerate 10 of your small units in just a few seconds, and prematurely end an attack.

10. Don't Get SplashedWatch out for the splash damage from defensive units like Wizard Towers and Mortars. Avoid, at all costs, deploying most of your units in a small group near them. Just a few hits and you could lose everything. Instead, use larger units like Giants and Golems to head towards them, and spread out units behind, like Wizards, Witches, and Archers to take them out.

These tips are far from all-inclusive, but are a good start to helping you win more attacks, and avoiding painful and costly failures!
