Penta LaLoon

I'm a TH9 with Level 2 Hounds.

Can I still LavaLoon or Penta LaLoon with five level 2 Hounds?

Thank you.

Of course you can... I'd take one max in your CC though. Why can't you?

I usually only penta when the queen is easily accessible for my king/queen to kill and cc can be lured and poisone to oblivion. Otherwise, golaloon

hi thinkgreen, the reason why I can't take a max hound in my cc is because my level 2 hound is the highest in my clan.

as such I was wondering if you could PentaLaLoon with 5 level 2 hounds

The cc should be Lured and poisoned to death before hand.
the queen should be easily accessible such that your heroes alone should be able to take her out.

your loon deployment. If you are carrying your own 5 hounds you must be carrying balloons in the cc. If that is the case, then you cannot spread them out as effectively. Believe it or not this can also cause failure in some attacks.

Hello vanNistelrooy

Pentalaloon is a known 3* option. I viewed it as similar to a TH8 dragon attack in the sense that, the attack plan is key and that there are very few number of troops to deploy as compared to other attacks.

I have seen some useful guides to pentalaloon circulating around the web, and had success trying it out before. Would suggest to watch some of these guides, & understand the dynamics before practicing on them. There are certain things to look out for which improve the odds of a successful pentalaloon attack. For instance, a symmetrical base helps in a successful pentalaloon attack as it aids in the pathing of both the hounds and the troops. Another factor would be the position of the air defenses ie whether the air defenses cover each other as the hounds would burst faster when coming up against multiple air defenses shooting at it at the same time.

Understanding how a good pentalaloon attack works will improve the odds of a successful 3* attack =)

Penta is very viable, especially with the prevalence of hounds in defending clan castles now and lava pups targeting enemy queen more effectively.

False. Depending on the base, you often can completely ignore her

I agree here. You never, ever want to put loons in the CC. You definitely want a hound to be in the CC, even if it's only L2.

Why would you penta-loon when you can Queen POP? The attack is much more effective on every single base build I have tried it on, and I test attacks A LOT.

Just check out the Queen POP thread. Penta is useless in my opinion. I couldn't even think of a case where I would use penta over Queen POP.
