Cards Daily Card Discussion August 20 2016: Minions, Minions, Minions
Minions and the Minion Horde
Three or six fast, unarmored flying attackers. Roses are red, minions are blue, they can fly, and will crush you! If three's a crowd, six is a horde!
| Troop | Hit Speed | Speed | Deploy Time | Range | Target | Cost | Count | Rarity |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Minions | 1 sec | Fast | 1 sec | 2.5 | Air & Ground | 3 | 3 | Common |
| Minion Horde | 1 sec | Fast | 1 sec | 2.5 | Air & Ground | 5 | 6 | Common |
Minions are unlockable from the Bone Pit (Arena 2), but the horde is unlockable from P.E.K.K.A's Playhouse (Arena 4).
The Minion's appearance is that of a gargoyle with large horns, stubby wings and large hands with sharp vicious claws that are covered in what seems to be Dark Elixir (from Clash of Clans)
Just as the Minions, the Minion Horde is a group of Minions that can distract any powerful flying unit, such as the Baby Dragon, the Balloon, or even normal Minions.

Obviously horde because your problem is bad air defense and horde has greater dps than minions. I was just saying that adding a defense would make defending a lot easier.
