there are two ways to do this:

1. spear start- put your miners on mana first thing, build a spearton, attack, keep your opponent locked up while you build 6 miners mining and 2 praying, this is the set-up for the spear mass, send spears to health when needed as you build your mass crippling your opponents economy, after you get 6 spears get a ghost, or shield wall, or both, now focus on destroying your opponents statues health

2. the archer miner start- basically the same concept as the spear start only now your on defense, remaining hidden is the key, u may want to send in one spear to keep an eye out, hide your spear mass, press the sword back button, then the miners out button, this will hide you army, in this method u will need at least one wall and up to 6 spears in shield wall formation until you are ready to deliver the final blow.

The final blow- first things first, destroy all magikill, then destroy walls, then destroy the statue
