nice one bro:)
Watched a few videos of yours on Youtube a couple of days back, i was looking for GOWIWI attacks, keep it going
Oh very nice! I'll have to pass this along to my higher level clannies! :D
Very nicely done mate. Haven't really bothered attacking with hounds yet, I'm really more of a ground guy. Gonna take a look at some of your GoWiWiPe raids, I always love watching those.
Cheers, Rock.
Haha, I love Gowiwipe too, but I would like to try the new tactic, get boring when using the same tactic a long time. I always do 2 different tactics in a same clan wars, and I love this way :o
Here is my Gowiwipe playlist for u: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfIq...T_JJby4YzkXFcS
I've been an air attacker for a long time. I used to use drags and minions, and switched to balloonions, as soon as my balloons were leveled up. Lately, I've been farming with barch/BAM, and using gowiwi in war, but when I'm ready to push, I go back to balloonions.
I don't have lava hounds yet (used the elixir for barbs and archers first), but I will get them soon. You've shown me, that with practice, this attack can be effective in war, and that is an exciting prospect. 😎👍
We're two sister war clans, Across the Sky and Across the Sea. Currently at 37 and 34 members respectively. If you'd like to visit you can set that up with Cat17 here on the forums to make sure you aren't mistakenly rejected (they're only looking for town halls 6 & 7 atm).
Our clans are just starting to get lava hounds and with a bit of luck, we'll be 3 starring us some th10s in war soon :D
vodka, can u pls join my clan for just 1 clan wars? My clan name: zoombies, my account name: bluewolf.
Thanks
Hi,
Nice vid, but did you use the hound at Lvl1? .... I'm new TH9, got max balloon, lvl5 minion, and will get the lava hound in 3 days... Will the lvl1 be any use?
Cheers
Other than heroes, walls, traps and lava hound, everything else were maxed ;)
I've told my other clan mates who have lava hounds (3 TH 10s and 2 TH 9s) to start subscribe and watching your vids :o
... From their replays, I can see they made a common misconception by dropping the hounds first before balloons, which resulted the hounds being killed before the balloons arrived. They deployed the hounds as if they're air golems. But golems are slow while hounds actually quite fast for air troop.
When will I got the next chapter? I'm waiting it too long :(
What do u think of hogs and two hounds strategy?
Excellent .... tried em out as suggested by your good self.... Now halfway to the DE for Hound upgrade.
Did you try Hounds with Minions? --- 3 or 4 hounds, rest minions, and rage spells.... Excellent troop combo, but a bit expensive on DE...... :cool:
Will bear that in mind when/if I try hound/minion again, allthough it was more of a "fun" army composition than a serious one.....
I do usually use 3 golem, for Gowiwi or Gowipe (usually the third golem being in CC, from a clanmate, as I only have lvl2.... I have found 2 usually not quite enough - perhaps I should practice with 2 golem more.....
Anways, back to DE looting, with the old faithfull miniball, as I want to get my hound upgraded.... :):cool:
Incredible attack with Lava Hound episode 3 :p
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mRWeZeofNf0
this only work with 2 level 40 hero..
Low level heroes won't survive that many hits from averages TH10 when there are that many defenses left to clean up.
I do 3 stars average TH10 with 2 lv2 lava hounds (Balavion attack) too with lv17 AQ & lv15 BK but don't use golem, but use more balloon and cc filled with loons. Deployement is different too.
Wow. A superb watch.
here's what happened vs stronger TH10:

Great attacks! Found new hope in hounds! Any news about TH 9 strategies? Loonion is good but as I progress im fighting more TH 10s in war and they're a pain to 2 star especially with an upgrading queen! Also looking for a more reliable 2-3 star vs th 9!
p.s. I know GoWiPe is good but I like air troops so please only offer air strategies :)
little out of topic, but can you suggest a strategy on how to destroy a LH in a cc?
I had no problems in dropping couple of archers and wizards to kill it, but then the fiery things make it very difficult.
thanks
You can kill him with some archers + 1 wizard first (use archers make a meat shield for wizard), after he dead, lure all small lavas in a group, then release 1 wizard kill them, just a shot for these small lavas :). I think it just take about 20 slots to kill him.
Nice one!
I've been using goweewee and gowipe for so long during clan wars, but sometimes 2 stars just doesn't seem good enough... I will start practicing, (wait what is it called again?), uhm, your tutorial and report back. Thanks!
Hmmm I was looking at your videos, and I noticed that those bases usually have single mode infernos and xbows facing down. Multi-mode infernos and up-xbows would wreck those balloons unless you bring 2 freeze... or not? Any thoughts or tips?
Edit 2: Just saw the third video! Impressive.
That's me! I usually use loonion for war and farm with barch but as loot isn't great ive been practising the TH 9 BaLavion you have on your website! Will certainly need practise to get used to it! But so far it's going ok, 2 starring usually which is good as im still unsure of how to deploy them properly and have no archer queen atm! Haha might try work a dragon into the mix to snatch THs rather than relying on Heros.
thumb UPPPPPPPPPP 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💯💯💯💯💯💯
I have been trying out 1 or 2 dragons in the mix as well, and it seems to be going ok so far .... Not sure yet if it's definatly better or not, but is not worse :)
(only have lvl 5 queen and lvl8 king atm, so hero firepower is a bit low, and my hounds are only lvl1):cool:
Wow, u watched careful man, that's great, you must have a lot experience on this :D. And let me say: no perfect tactic for all bases, such as: hogs just works great on bases has single infernos, outside heroes, air troops works well on bases has incorrect air defenses/air bombs position, so on ... The same for Balavion, it can't works well on any bases. The most important thing for us is: CHOICE CORRECT TACTIC FOR THE BASE WHICH WE ATTACK, NO PERFECT TACTIC :o.
For your question: YES, loons hate inferno with multiple mode like hogs, and up-xbows may cause more damage on them, Gowiwpe can work in these bases better than Balavion, I thought. In clan wars with many bases, you can choice other good bases for Balavion, don't focus hard bases for them :)
Yeah, the third video is the best attack.
P/S: thanks so much for watching it carefully, and don't hesitate to ask me more, it's my pleasure :)
Thanks for replying back! I'm yearning to learn a new technique, and lava hound seems to improve my favorite bloonion strategy -- maybe they are not useless at all!
So I spent sometime last night going through your videos and a top player's videos posted in the first page of this thread. You guys happen to have the 'opposite' strategy. You prefer to drop the lava hound behind balloons but the other player drops lava hound first (he calls it flying piggy). I guess ultimately it's a personal choice which ones you protect, and it hugely depends on the layout of opponent's base design. Thanks again! We have a war happening soon in my war clan and I may use the lava hound and see how it turns out, excited!
Only getting a chance to reply now busy day haha! No worries buddy thanks for the effort! My King is lvl 10 Queen is 4 days away from lvl 16! :) also to the other poster about hounds and minioms do air bombs not mess up that army? Haha my golems are only lvl 1 so GoWi__ doesn't work for me at the moment haha
Lvl 1 golem is not the end of the world, gowipe and gowiwi really depend on timing and placement of spells. As for the seeking air mine and air bombs, the heal spell will definitely help. Also with so many balloons, you will need to split troops up instead of dumping all of them in the same location (eggs vs. baskets!). In the tutorial he posted, the troops were split into at least 2, sometimes 3 batches.
Would lvl 1 last against Max th 9s? I will certainly practise didn't bother cause I'd read you need higher lvl golems! And yeah with the balavion strat I tried both ways (hounds before/after loons) I found you can destroy most defenses but heavily rely on HEROS to snatch ths as minions kinda die off before getting a chance!
I usually release 1 or 2 minions in the most likely air bomb site, if no luck, hopefully the hound will trip them --- they are there to take fire/heat away from minions afterall....... :)
(Plenty of 2 stars with hound/minion, but have only 3 starred lower th bases .... so far) :)
Managed 2 stars against TH9... (midish, not max)
3 stars against a tough TH8
.... Max rage helps though, Raging minions can be awseome, esp when a hound is taking all the hits from AD/Whizz towers etc.....
can't wait to get hounds maxed out
(TH9 myself, minions lvl5, rage maxed, hounds still only lvl1)
Sounds more fun than feeasble. That army would cost 2k+ de!! Haha I will 100% be trying it for fun though!
Trying to get Balavion down but feel the balloons aren't strong enough and hounds don't last! :( will try some more and keep researching I have faith in my air troops, there is an air army combo as reliable as GoWiPe (apparently it's a reliable 1/2 star on virtually any base if used right). My determination will pay off!!
Yes.. it's more for fun.. :)
There are a few youtube videos for it... (using maxed troops..but you get the idea....)
p.s ... video not me, I need to find out how to do screen grab/recording :cool:

So I tried this strategy for the first time today during clan wars, snatched 2 two stars. I'm currently warring in a war clan with most ppl being th 9 and a few th8, about only 7 peeps being th 10. Very limited choices for my attacks, both bases had max defense and multi-mode infernos on. I released two hounds first to take out all the bombs, they are kinda more effective in that sense as ground bombs wont trigger unless you step on them ( hence big bombs well placed can be deadly) , air bombs will find those flying piggies. Definitely a very fun strategy and versatile!
Great man, your posts very detail, appreciate this. And yes, dropping lava hound before or after loons is depend on the base which we attack, we must investigate the base carefully before real attack :). And I'm making the new version for Lava Hound, with a some different versus previous chapters :o
