I have 24 balloons, 15 goblins, and 3 giants, 1 healing spell and 1 lightning, all level 3 except the lightning is level 4. Basically you can destroy any th 6 or below base completely and often th 7 if they have bad design or are poorly upgraded air defense. I have 150 army camp spots but you could do this with 21 balloons as well in most cases. First check for clan castle troops with a goblin or giant, if they do have clan castle troops the giant should draw them out ( if u used a goblin to check and they have them u then lay down a giant), sometimes you have to use two giants to get them grouped properly. If they are archers, goblins, wizards, or barbarians lightning bolt them, if they are giants u could lightning bolt them if you want but I would use it on an air defense instead. If its a dragon, surrender. If there weren't any clan castle troops use your giants (or remaining giants if there were troops)to distract defenses or start destroying an air defense if it is outside the walls. If there is another air defense or the only air defense is in the middle of the base send a bunch of balloons at it, 7-9 or so, and drop the healing spell right before or after you drop the balloons a little bit ahead of them, on the air defense or on defenses in front of it if there are any. Next send in balloons at the archer towers and wizard towers, maybe 4-5 at a time. If you feel you don't need to use all your balloons then don't but it is better to be safe then sorry, this is an all or nothing attack. After all the defenses are destroyed drop all your goblins in one spot and sit back as the base is destroyed. Be wary of tesla towers on th 7s, and barbarian kings a bit. Usually barbarian kings aren't a problem with this strategy except for they can kill the goblins but they are often too slow, plus it's fun when your balloons kill the barbarian king. Sometimes on th 7s you run out of time before you can destroy everything but u usually can, or its close which makes it more exciting. I think this strategy would work with th 7 army's as well if there weren't any cc troops.
