My Queen is upgrading for the next few days, and I'm trying to figure out what a good raiding strategy would be without her. Anybody have any suggestions for reliably cracking bases without Queen support?

War or farm?
Trophy pushing or don't care?
For War - LaLoon is probably still going to be your best bet for chance at 3 with AQ down, especially in current meta.
For relatively cheap Farming
Gob knife, Loonian, Barch, Bam, mass goblins are all profitable without AQ
For Pushing anyone of
HGHB, HPHB, GoWiVa, GoWiPe, GiWiPe, GiWiVa, LaLoon, Mass Drgon, Mass Babies, Dragloon
Sorry, I should have specified. I'm looking primarily for farming (we only war once a week, so for now I'll just upgrade my heroes between wars). I'm not really trophy pushing much, but I I'm in Master III and don't really want to lose trophies too much, either. I'm looking at LavaLoon, but currently my Balloons are only level 5, so we'll see how that goes.Quote:

strait Loonion
24/50. CC Hound and Haste (maxed if possible)
2 Heal 2 Rage..I bring a poison in case the CC has troops in it..
work around the fart blowers.. it is a boss attack in the right hands.
PM me if you want, I can visit your clan. or u can hop over too plenty vids I post daily.
Edit: just noticed you have L5 loons.. not nearly as effective.. Gob knife or Barch in the meantime..
pretty much need the CC hound for this method to work IME..and L6 loons as well. sorry bro/ma'am
How easy is it to 50% a base with Barch? Also, will Barch be able to make it to storages?Quote:

I think your best bet without lvl6 loons is just to barch and not worry too much about trophies, but no barch is not for storage raiding. If you want to raid with bigger armies try a gihealer with some valks and wiz/barch to create a funnel. or even just a gibarch army can core into bases and get you most or all the loot. In all honestly unless you aq walk for every raid you should be able to use w/e farming comp you used with your aq up. Are you going to do as well, NO, but you should be able to do alright still.Quote:

You're right. I've always kind of viewed dropping trophies as "moving backwards", but that's really not a correct view.Quote:
