Since you don't bring archers or barbs with you, do you need to even worry about it? The balloons and minions just crush them anyways right?

Yes. A high level dragon and ruin your attack. As can wizards as they both have splash damage.
Depend. If your Minions right behind your balloon then it's fine. But if it's just a little slow and they have Wz6 on CC, your balloons will disappear in a second.Quote:

Not necessarily. They will only take out the CC troops if they're under a defense when it's being bombed at.
Range units like Archers and Wizards can quickly ruin a raid from my experience as they go out of the range of the balloon, while Dragons (and minions) can attack your balloons with impunity while your balloons can't even retaliate.
It's always important to lure out any troop in my opinion unless you're running a blitzkrieg type of attack such as GoWiPe or Mass Dragons whom don't really care for the CC troops.
I always lure the cc troops just in case.
Ok, one more thing. How do you lure them if you don't bring archers/barbs with you? Do you waste your minions on them?
Always lure when using loons.
Had a guy raid me just the other day with hogs and loon/mins. Failed to lure my CC and my lvl 6 wizards roasted his bacon within a mater of seconds and completely decimated his loons.
Pretty much ruined his raid, and he failed horrendously.
Always lure. If your strat is loon/min use maybe 1-2 loons to lure and pull to the side with mins, or if you have archers in your comp use those to kill CC as well.
Always lure with balloons.
I always carry 5 barbs-1 giant for the lure; if i can't, well, i use a lightning.
