Questions About TH9 Balloonion While Pushing to Champions

Ok right now, im at 2900s and i pushed using balloonion for 1 and 2 stars.

1. Do I need to bring spells every battle for 1 star against well-upgraded th10s? I can maintain using 1 spell per battle. I bring 1 Lightning, 3 Rage.

2. Do I need both of my heroes while pushing? If one of them is under upgrade or is being healed, can I still go for 1 stars?

3. Do I need my cc filled with minions or drag everytime?

4. What kind of th10s do i need to look for to 1 star? (Picture would be nice) Air defences centralized, AT exposed, AQ centralized...

5. What other strategies are there that i can use to push (not de expensive like quatrolavaloonion)? I know i can get 1 star with 220 archers, but i need to bring 4 lightning every battle.

Thks in advance. Here are my most common war strategies that has potential for pushing (maybe) :

HoLoWiWi

CB Laloon

LoGoWiPe

Shattered Laloon

IF you know the base doesn't got any double big bombs, u could go with hogs and wizards/archer. bring 1-2 heal spells and it's possible to get atleast 1 star. lavaloon is always good, but u got a point on the costs and waiting time.

How am i gonna get 1 star with hogs?

1. Do I need to bring spells every battle for 1 star against well-upgraded th10s? I can maintain using 1 spell per battle. I bring 1 Lightning, 3 Rage.

It is always best to bring all spells BUT use as at most 2 if possible. When you lose near champs it is very painful, take you many raids to get back to where you were.

2. Do I need both of my heroes while pushing? If one of them is under upgrade or is being healed, can I still go for 1 stars?

1 hero is fine but of course 2 gives finer margin of error. If you are an experienced loonion user I would say you can find bases that you can one-star with 0-2 spells and no heroes. The other spells and heroes are for safety margin.

3. Do I need my cc filled with minions or drag everytime?

Neither are good. You want cc filled with 6 loons.

4. What kind of th10s do i need to look for to 1 star? (Picture would be nice) Air defences centralized, AT exposed, AQ centralized...

Only 2 main rules to this:

1) Most trash buildings not covered by xbow, inferno, AD or AQ.
2) Most ATs available as a first target by loons. (i.e. not parked behind cannons)

If a base meets both criteria you can win with no spells practically.

5. What other strategies are there that i can use to push (not de expensive like quatrolavaloonion)? I know i can get 1 star with 220 archers, but i need to bring 4 lightning every battle.

For a medium DE usage strategy try 2 lava hound lavaloonion. It can hit into the core of TH10s and take their DE storage, making up for its DE consumption. It can also sometimes 2-star TH10s, making pushing faster. It does NOT take much longer to train than loonion because you use 6 barracks more efficiently. But you definitely have to use spells for this attack, minimum 2.

ok im guess im experienced at getting 1 star without heroes, but im not sure what trophy offers i should look for. I'm thinking 27 would be ok because it gives me 9 trophies, but this will take a long time
