Guide to trapping

Postby Atree » Fri Jun 06, 2014 10:18 pm

Alright, let me layout the game scenario here for you. Titan just got a mini in the first five minutes of the game, and he decides to camp the mini mid.(Keep in mind you can trap with basically any builder in the entire game) For this demonstration I have went troll, to show you that basing builders also have the ability to trap mini's.
What you will need:
1. A TH(Titan Hunter) this is for the novices of the game, so don't trap with a builder that doesn't have a TH for now.
2. Preferably around 2k lumber. For the upgrading of the walls and towers.
3. Confidence. Don't worry, you got this.

***WARNING***
This ONLY works if the minion is NOT on hold! If the mini is on hold, you WON'T be able to lure him into your trap.

Alright, now depending on which side the mound the mini is on is where you will set up your trap.
Example: If minion is on bot left of mound you will set up your trap bot left. etc.

Use the pictures below in order to set up your trap, and place your builder where I have placed mine( BE CAREFUL: Some titans can hit you diagonally, specially in the top right mound trap)
Also, the unconstructed buildings behind the walls are towers**

Okay, when you have this set up it's now time to trap the minion.
STEPS:
1. Use your TH to lure the minion over to your trap, BUT DO NOT ATTACK THE MINION WITH YOUR TH. As this will alert the Titan that his minion is being attacked too soon, and it will also divert his attention from the fruit tree to your TH.
Basically, don't attack at all with your TH until the minion is within the walls of the trap, only use his movement to lure.
2. If step one is done correctly, once the minion comes into range of the fruit tree's attack, it will ignore your TH and focus it's attention on the fruit tree (make sure you don't block it's path with your TH, allow it to hit the fruit tree, in order to get all the way in the trap).
3. Once the minion is in the trap, either walking to attack the fruit tree or already attacking it, wall the minion in. AS SOON AS you have completed the wall, immediately start upgrading the wall.
4. After you have walled the minion in, rush over to your unconstructed towers and finish building them.
5. Incase you don't have a tanky TH be sure not to feed and blink it behind the walls if HP gets low.
6. Watch the minion die, and collect your 45g+Eggs+praise from your fellow builders.

CONGRATULATIONS on your trap kill. Hope this helped!
