Ultimate Attacking Strategies in Clash of Clans 2025

There are literally tons of attacking strategies out there in Clash of Clans but the problem is: which one will work great for you? Do you search for an attacking strategy to farm or for Clan War? What’s your Town Hall level?

I get tons of requests frequently so I decided to build this overview here that will give you all the popular strategies in an overview and show you what Town Hall and what purpose they will work best – I want you to see directly which strategy you can use right now.

Of course I will update them frequently so you will always stay in touch with the meta.

We highly recommend you to use the latest attacking strategies there are which can be found in our attacking guides for TH18 here, TH17 here, TH16 here, TH15 here, TH14 here, TH13 here, TH12 here, TH11 here, TH10 here and TH9 here. Please also mind that our bases are all designed to effectively defend this attacking strategy. Check out our TH18 bases here, TH17 bases here, TH16 bases here, TH15 bases here, TH14 bases here, TH13 bases here, TH12 bases here, TH11 bases here, TH10 bases here, TH9 bases here, TH8 bases here and TH7 bases here.

Why Different Attacking Strategies?

The main problem is that an attacking strategy always relies to work on certain troops, but this will always change over time.
An attacking strategy can be OP one month and be not working half a year later when defenses got buffed or the main troops got nerfed.
Also, a strategy that will work great on Town Hall 10 can be pretty average or worst at Town Hall 11.

To now make this picture complete – war bases in Clan War require different attacking approaches for a 3-Star than what you would need to use to farm resources in regular attacks. And what if that strategy you use works but is too expensive to farm resources?

All those questions are part of the overview below of the different attacking strategies and I always want to keep this as updated as possible with the latest balance changes and meta in Clash of Clans – all you need is to check the row for your Town Hall level and what purpose you look for an attack (Clan War/CWL, Trophy Pushing or Farming).

I also have linked detailed guides for every attacking strategy to show you how to execute that strategy properly.

Best Attacking Strategies Ranking

This table here will give you a rough ranking but if you look at each strategy you will see how well it performs at the different Town Hall levels.
I have here three different rankings so pay close attention to what you want to do with that strategy:

War: This is for war attacks of any kind, reason for this is that war bases try to prevent a 3-Star and give away the 2-Star quite easily and you have plenty of time to scout a base before you attack.

Trophy: pushing cups in normal multiplayer battles where you only have little time to scout and need a more general attacking strategy.

Farming: main purpose is getting the resources with an army that is not too expensive to make a profit in resources long-term.

Please mind we have restructured our best attacking strategies recently, so please select your Town Hall level to see the best working strategy below

Conclusion

I hope I gave you a good overview about the current best attacking strategies you can use in Clan of Clans right now. Of course there are so many variations of each of them that this list could go on and on, but I think this is a nice point where to start and evolve what strategies you will be using. If you have a new strategy that should be in this list, please leave a comment below 🙂
