What Do Minions Do?
Minions deploys 3 flying melee units, each capable of hitting both ground and air targets. They're a smaller, cheaper version of the same idea behind Minion Horde, trading total damage output for a lower Elixir cost.
Individually each unit has low hitpoints, but together they can chip away at troops or buildings quickly for very little Elixir investment.
Where Minions Fit
They work well as a cheap, flexible defensive answer to a variety of ground and air threats, and as cycle support for chip damage on offense.
How to Counter Minions
A small splash spell or area-damage troop is highly efficient against them, since all 3 low-HP units typically land and fight close together.
