Clone Spell



"Turn this Spell into a pop-up army! Clone Spells create a circle of spawning that creates limited-lifetime copies of troops that enter it. It will only spawn up to a maximum housing space of troops."


 * Summary
 * The Clone Spell is a spell that copies troops that enter the spell's radius.
 * These copied troops are equal in level to the original troop. They last a limited amount of time, and can be destroyed prematurely by defenses.
 * A single troop is sufficient to generate copies of itself for the housing space of the spell level.
 * It can clone all troops except for Heroes.
 * Cloned Golems, Witches and Lava Hounds will split into or summon their respective subtroops also in the cloned status.
 * It can also clone subtroops, including the Skeleton Spell's Skeletons. For this purpose, each Golemite is assumed to take 15 housing spaces, each Skeleton takes 1 and each Lava Pup takes 2.
 * Spawned troops from the Heroes can be cloned.
 * Lower leveled Clone Spells will be unable to clone Golems, Lava Hounds or P.E.K.K.As. A level 3 Clone Spell will be able to clone all of them.
 * Clone capacities from multiple Clone Spells won't be combined, unlike Army Camps which always combine. For example, two level four Clone Spells won't clone seven Baby Dragons.
 * If more than one troop is inside the deployed Clone Spell, the troop spawned first will be cloned first.


 * Offensive Strategy
 * Try using the cloned units as tank for the original units as they lasts for the limited time.
 * The cloned troops does not count to the Eagle Artillery's housing space to activation, but don't forget that the Clone Spell itself counts as 20 troop housing spaces.
 * Cloning a Golem at low health will create a new Golem with full health. Use this to your advantage, as it will be able to tank lots of damage.
 * Using the Clone Spell when your troops are at the core of a base can be very useful, as you get more troops to power through high-hitpoint structures, such as the Town Hall, X-Bows, and Inferno Towers.


 * Trivia
 * The two spell bottles behind the main bottle on the icon represent the cloned troops.
 * This is the only spell that takes up 4 housing spaces, and it is the most expensive Elixir spell in the game in terms of per one spell, but it is the cheapest if counted per housing space.
 * The Clone Spell is slightly greener and brighter than the Freeze Spell.
 * The Clone Spell is similar to the Mirror card from Clash Royale, able to make duplicates of troops.
 * In both Chinese localizations of the game, the Clone Spell is even translated as "Mirror Spell".
 * This is a reference to the Mirror from Clash Royale, as both are spells and can clone troops.
 * Among all permanent Troops and Spells, the Clone Spell is the only one whose introduction into the game doesn't also introduce a new upgrade level of the corresponding army building.
