So I was having a lot of success with loonion and managed to put both heroes down. Now though, I seem to be struggling, since without my queen I have nothing to go in and grab de and/or town hall when loons and minions arent quite enough.
I need a strat that works with no heroes or some serious loonion tips. Please state league, comp, and a mini guide. Would hate to try something without knowing how to do it and then come back and have to PM you for help. Thanks!
20 Giants,70 Archers,50 Barb.
Loonion is a great farming army with heroes down.
You should hold off around 10-15 minions during the raid and deploy them directly to the de/th after the outsids structures are down.
I use 24/50.with 2 rage and 2 heal with a hound in cc
How many loons? When I tried loonion I sometimes got good results sometimes went horrid. Couldnt figure what I was doing wrong.Quote:

Gob knife. Its all I used for most of my hero farming.
20 giants, 20 - 30 archers (or wiz) 6 wbs and rest goblins. 1 jump, 2 heal and a rage, poison if there is a cc
look for a base with DE store within 1 jump of the outer ring, drop giants that side, archers in a line behind to clear the funnel, drop wbs to break in the giants whilst archers are working. Jump spell to DE store, release the gobs. Heal and rage the core.
I found that most people in lower leagues (gold 1/2 and sometimes even crystal) kept their TH and DE store in the same compartment so usually came away with at least 1 star.
3 lava, 22 loons and rest minions. That works wonders.
Can't you just barch?
I've been doing laloonion for a couple weeks now with pretty good results in crystal. 1 hound, 26 loons, 30 minions. 2 rage 1 heal and 3 haste. See if you can get a hound in cc too, but you don't need it. Send in hound(s) and loons with rage to take down defenses then minions to clean up. Use haste to speed up loons and heal on loons being attacked by wizard towers.
If you can't Barch, it's probably b/c you want to stay in a specific Trophy range. In which case I recommend using an alternating Elixir/DE armies.
If you don't care about trophies, drop to Gold/Silver league and use Barch on collectors.
I farm in Masters using alternating Elixir/DE armies.

Summary:
Elixir: GiWiPe is best, but you can also use Baby Dragons or Dragons to power DE farm especially in Masters and above.
DE: GoWiVa is definitely the best and cheapest (in elixir) army that will decimate in Masters and above. Can also use GoWiPE or Lavaloon if you want.

Guide Section
~~~
GiWiPe = 17 Giants, 17 Wizards, 2 Pekkas, some WBs and Archer(s); I take 2 or 3 Heals, 1 or 2 Rage(s) and a Haste with Tanks/Ranged & Poison in CC.
Miniguide:
Basically this is a ghetto GoWiPe. You make a funnel using Giants with Wiz behind them and Rage the 2 Pekkas with some Wiz behind into the core to raze the core (usually TH, DE storage, and CC). Therefore, in scouting you just have to locate those 3 buildings and the DE drills, and make sure you hit all of those in your attack and it doesn't matter if it's a 1 star.
BD/Drag = Mass BDs or Drgs, 4 Light & 2 Quakes, Loons or Lava in CC.
Miniguide:
This is a Mass attack, so you just have to know how to funnel. Using your two Zap+Zap+Quakes take out 2 ADs closest to your path to the DE buildings (Storage, TH, CC and Drills). Use BDs special ability to create the funnel. Go in and get it. This is an incredible attack that works on even TH11s when you get the hang of it.
GoWiVa = 18 Valks, 10 Wiz, 3 WBs, 1 Golem; 3 Heal, 1 Rage, Haste; Tank & Poison in CC.
The greatest attack at th9 IMO besides HGHB (which requires high level clanmates for the ♥♥).
Miniguide:
Create a funnel using the Golem on one hand and the CC Tank(s) on the other with Wizards behind them.
Insert the Valks between them and Rage it with some Wiz behind them. Poison the CC troops if they have any.
Heal the Valks on their way Razing the base.
~~~
General Strategy:
In general I usually farm DE to max or near max so that I can start GoWiVa-ing for War practice and to farm Elx.
For a specific upgrade like AQ to lvl11, I max or near max my Elixir first, then start BD-ing or GiWiPe-ing until I max DE and start the upgrade.
It's a good cycle -> Max DE with BD/GiWiPe, upgrade, max Elx with GoWiVa/GoWiPe.
Alright thanks! Seems like laloon is one of the better strats to use will try it out!
Clearly you did not read my post... how unfortunate (for you).Quote:

Use a few minions to clear all distracting buildings on the outside, then send all minions straight to the core.
Hope this helps
