Guess what?!? Laloon is dead!

[Ear75]

I just crushed a max 9 with my mid 9 in our current war with lalloon. 3 starred my other opponent with Gohog. I have 15/14 heros.

My point being that lalloon is still very effective against the right base. Other bases might need a different strategy. In my opinion, which is just that, you should be proficient in at least 3-4 strategies at TH9. If you're a one trick pony you will struggle more often than not.

Learn Gohog or Govaho, witch slap, BW/QW, etc and you'll be fine. Also, there are dozens of variations on lalloon. Based on the layout you're facing, some are much more effective than others. In the war attack I mentioned above, I did a 2x zap/quake on the 2 ADs closest to the AQ, drew out the CC with my BK and killed it with 4 drags and my AQ then attacked from the other side with 3 hounds and 16 loons. No rage or haste spells. Got 3 in 2:15. I did that specific strategy because the defending AQ and CC were on the edge of the base and I could just barely sneak my BK inside the CC circle. I don't do that one often but if the base meets those conditions it's an easy 3 most of the time.

I'm happy for those of you that don't seem to notice a difference and hope to see you in war soon.

WHAT?

That is NOT the same as this:

Once again, Supercell thinks they know what's best and killed an OP strategy without so much as announcing anything. So nice of them. Go ahead.... try to use it in war, preferably against my clan. It won't turn out well - they completely hosed it. Neat!!!

Can you explain that?

It is completely unusable against an average th11, whereas it used to be a surefire clear on low 11s and all 10s. I attacked almost solely with this strategy for both war and farming for months - but those of you who use it occasionally must surely know best. In SUP ERC ELL you trust!

So, it's against average TH11s where the problem exists?

Yeah, maybe so. Loons were certainly nerfed, but your initial post was so poorly written and false, your credibility is just head-scratching...
