PentaLaLoon with No Heroes

With heroes upgrading...I've been hearing that PentaLaloon works nicely even with no heroes...Is it true?

Anything war-related that involves lava hounds and balloons is pretty much a no-go when it comes to having NO heroes. The only viable option when it comes to air attacks that wont have you use the heroes most of the time to get the second star, is more likely Mass-Drags(if you are a TH10/11). But other than that, no other air attacks can work properly without heroes in the mix.

A ground related strategy that could work without heroes is probably Mass hogs or GoHo. Maybe even GoWiWi(Pe).

For TH9, it can work if the enemy CC troops is a lava hound, or you can kill it with poison.

It will help if you share the base pic that you are going to attack. In general it does work sometimes w/o heros but only if the base has a weak AQ and AD

Please don't spread misinformation.


The poster that said if it's a lava in cc, or if you can kill cc with poison was correct. Get a scout on base first.

Sorry mum.

I just did a 4 drag, 3 hound, 16 loon, 4 light, 2 quake 3 star with 0 heroes. Kill 2 ads, use drags to kill cc and queen, ezpz laloon from there. Doesn't work on every base but it worked where penta certainly would have failed.

Check this thread:

I usually got 3 stars with the reversed pentalaloon with zapquake-attack against somewhat lower level TH9s.

A max TH9 in my clan uses pentaloon almost every war attack and is highly successful. lures cc with a loon or two, poisons and goes in with heroes to cleanup (or in your case maybe drop a loon or two for cleanup)

edit: This will work easy if your Hounds are LVL2 against LVL6 Airdefs, against LVL7 airdefs (Max TH9) he has a noticeably harder time of it but still pulls it off regularly.
