Read this if you want to stop the superqueen

I just moments ago 3 star quealered a max defense th9. with a lvl25 queen. no bk, no castle used, just her, 9 healers and 40 or so minions, though I did have to use 3 rage and a jump. that never happened pre-update.

so yeah, I've got to stand by my assertion that a little wall spacing trick isn't going to save your DE tank. maybe she has to take the long way but she'll still get there.

well show ur super lucky base getting constant lvl 40 superqueen wins!!! Love to see it!!!

I love all the high and mighty guys acting like their base in indestructible. Guess, what, you setup to stop AQ walk, your vulnerable for a diff attack, you setup for that attack, your vulnerable for a diff attack. Get over yourself, every base can be 3 starred if the right person catches you with the right troopload.

1. She will not take the jump for a double set of walls when there is a space between sets. If you make the wall squares so that the DE storage is out of her range, you can't use a jump spell to get in. SQ attackers rarely bring quakes, because of the DE hit, and the cycle time. If you have this in the middle, it's tough to get wall breakers to hit this deep into the base.

2. Put a pekka in your defending CC. The queen can't recover fast enough to kill it. I've never once beaten a CC pekka with a SQ raid with any combination of rage, poison, and healer. If I see a pekka come out of the CC I usually just quit the raid on the spot.

1 - Queens hate jump, and that's why I quit using it. 4 EQ is the way to go. You can open a ground path to the core/DE on 90% of bases, (most bases have at least one spot with 8 squares or less from outside to core) and get the queen into shooting range of the DE and TH on the other 10%. Yes, it's spendy on DE, but it absolutely gets the job done, and I don't hit anything under 2500 DE in Masters 1-Champs III. Sometimes I get tricked by DE in the drills and not the storage, miss one and don't get my 2500, but that's rare.

2. Defending CC Pekka get killed by my leading BK and wiz/CC troops + poison before they even get to the queen. My fave CC to bring is a L4+ Pekka and a max giant. I drop the EQ, drop the CC, drop 6 healers for my CC, and then create a funnel with 6 wiz. Then I drop the BK if I have him, followed by the queen, both of whom follow the CC into the core and DE. I wait until the queen starts taking damage to drop the other 6 healers for the queen. 14 minions to steer the queen or take extra buildings to hit 70%. Rage on the healers if things get hairy, heal for the healers if they start getting hit by an outlying archer, and use her ability just before the raid ends to top her back up to 100%. Here are 6 recent raids.

This is great if you don't care about cycle time between attacks. I'm not saying that quad quake is ineffective, just that not many people doing SQ carry it because of the hour cook time and the cost of building (500+ DE). It's not at all surprising to see your attack log have lots of successes, but full time farming using that strategy isn't viable because we only have so many raids we can do per day. For me personally if I was only starting a raid when I had 4 quakes ready I'd only get in about 3-4 attacks per day. I want to do that many per hour.

Exactly this!

I loaded up my defenses to stop AQ walk and spam laloon. But a stoned GoHo or even a simple spam gowipe will get the 2 star and my DE every single time. Granted they will burn every spell in their arsenal to do it and it it's worth 1500 DE to raid 2500 than be my guest!

Are you able to get 4 attacks in per hour without boosting with gems? If so, I see your point.

My approach suits me well, as I only have a few minutes every now and again to attack - I rarely get to play for a solid hour.

4quake is actually slightly less cook time than jump because you can have rage and quake going simultaneously. I don't use it because jumps and wb work fine for me and are cheaper. I have been burned more times than I care to admit with a completely ignored jump spell, and it is infuriating. but I have found post-update that the key to success is to be patient, let her go where she will, use the jump when she is trapped and about to start hitting wall. placement is key too, you don't want to open as many compartments as possible, you mostly just want to open the compartments you want her jumping into.

I just got mass witched and he got a 97% 2 star, so we should nerf that also...

if they want the dark elixer bad enough they will get, whether it be superqueen, giwi, drags, pekkas. if you nerf the super queen they will come with something else.
