*'''Summary'''
 
**Lava Pups are spawned when a [[Lava Hound]] falls in battle. Although they vaguely resemble their parent [[Troops|troop]] in appearance, they are significantly stronger offensively but have only a tiny fraction of the [[Lava Hound|Lava Hound's]] health.
 
**When a [[Lava Hound]] dies, it splits into 8 Lava Pups at level 1, and increases by 2 with every level, capping at 14 Lava Pups at level 4.
 
**The Lava Pups will explode out in a large circle when they are spawned, instead of clustering up where the [[Lava Hound]] falls.
 
**{{PreferredTarget|None}}
 
**They resemble Lava Hounds in appearence, except being smaller and made completely of lava.
 
----
 
*'''Offensive Strategy'''
 
**A group of Lava Pups can be wiped out by a single [[Air Bomb]], so try to trigger it with the [[Lava Hound]] to make the Lava Pups live longer.
 
**Like all low health troops, they're vulnerable to [[Wizard Tower]]s, so distract them with more durable units.
 
----
 
*'''Trivia'''
 
**Lava Pups were added in the 16th September 2014 update.
 
**They have nearly identical stats to a level 1 [[Minion]], the only differences being slightly lower Hitpoints and a shorter range (2.75 tiles for the [[Minion]] vs. 2 for the Lava Pup).
 
**As one of the three subtroops (the others being the [[Golem/Golemite|Golemite]] and the [[Witch/Skeleton|Skeleton]]), it cannot be trained, placed or donated directly via the [[Clan Castle]] (although the parent [[Troops]] can).
 
**While the [[Lava Hound]] appears to be made of both molten lava and solid rock, the Lava Pup seems to be a pure lava being, perhaps suggesting that the lava cools into rocks as the Lava Pups mature.
 
**If you have a Lava Hound in your Clan Castle, and it splits into Lava Pups during a defense, it will be a Lava Hound again if at least one of the pups survive at the end of battle.

Lava Pup

Summary

  • Lava Pups are fast, weak air troops. They are spawned in a circular spread when the Lava Hound has been defeated.
  • They resemble Lava Hounds in appearance, but are smaller, and are made entirely out of lava.
  • Lava Pups have no preferred target when attacking; they will simply attack the closest building. However, if they become aware of enemy Clan Castle troops, Heroes, or Skeleton Trap skeletons (either by being attacked themselves or by being near another friendly troop under attack), and can fight back against them, they will leave their previously targeted building and instead engage the enemy troops. Once all of the nearby enemy troops are defeated, the Lava Pups will proceed to attack the nearest structure.
  • As a sub-troop, it cannot be trained, placed, or donated directly via the Clan Castle (although the Lava Hound can).
  • The Lava Pup is considered to take up 2 housing space for the purpose of determining its interactions with the Tornado Trap, Clone Spell and Recall Spell.
  • It cannot trigger the Seeking Air Mine, but can trigger Air Bombs.

Strategy

Defensive

  • The Lava Hound can be placed inside the Clan Castle, but Lava Pups cannot. Nonetheless, when a Lava Hound explodes, the Lava Pups are able to overwhelm enemies with their large numbers. This makes them useful to stall slower troops like Electro Dragons and the Royal Champion, but they are weaker if multiple troops engage multiple Lava Pups at the same time.
  • Lava Pups can easily stall single-target defenses. Consider using one with Dragons or Electro Dragons to help with these slower units.

Offensive

  • A group of Lava Pups can be easily wiped out by a single Air Bomb or other AOE/Multi-Target defenses, but can easily distract the Air Defense for some time. Try using more durable aerial units to distract them and buy valuable seconds.
    • If they are adequately protected, they can even help to finish off buildings in the corners in a similar fashion to Minions.
