When I read the bit about it making the giant wiz healer combo viable again at higher THs, I thought it was about the dumbest thing I'd ever heard. The inferno tower problem not withstanding, why would you waste 30 spots on a lava hound when you could add 2 more healers instead? Sure, one or two will die, but if you have 3 or 4 of them, at least a couple will make it through at least 2 air defenses, assuming you have good timing, placement, and use of spells. And that's enough in most cases to at least 2 star and get maybe 2/3 of the loot.
