Queen and healers is an unfair advantage

[JonathanJimbo]

Get a max pekka in your cc. Put quad teslas in the core. Design the base so the AQ deals with the quad teslas at the same time as the BK or AQ if you attack from 2 different sides. Put air sweepers to cover the other 2 sides. Much harder to superqueen then.

With a max pekka in the cc, at worst it forces the ability, at best it kills the AQ outright. Then engaging quad teslas, xbows with enemy heroes or an air sweeper at the same time should mean death.

Why do people keep talking about a 28 minute cook time as if it's this big long process?

Because it is longer than the cheap barch or gibarch cook time.

Barch doesn't really core max TH9's for the DE how is that a fair comparison.

gibarch can take just as long depending on the troops you take.

28 mins isn't particularly long is all I'm thinking.

Doesn't seem like 80k elixir (for the healers) is very expensive either.

First of all, let's get your math right. Where does it take 14 minutes to cook a healer? And 80k elixir is all you're going to spend, for the healers? Then this thread doesn't even exist, b/c the only walks the queen will be doing is around the outside of the base.

You need to invest in either wallers or jump spells to get to the core, as well as funneling troops. If you use minions to funnel, that doesn't affect your cook time or elixir cost, but wallers sure do, as well as an increase in elixir cost.

Finally, there's only one thing that needs to be said to debunk that this is "OP":

- Aside from going to TH10 and building inferno towers, the only thing you really need to do to protect yourself from a successful SuperQueen hit on your oil, is face your air sweepers into the path she's going to take, within the range of upgraded point defenses. That absolutely destroys a Queenler raid, I have experienced it myself firsthand, as well as shut down attackers who have tried it on me.

It's not anyone's fault but the defender if they refuse to reconfigure their base to protect from this type of attack. If it opens themselves up to other attacks... well, this is supposed to be a strategy game, with pros and cons to all choices you can make in how you attack or defend.

♥♥♥♥. You're just jealous that you can't use it because you have a baby queen

Omg I literally just got attacked by this!
It is so much more formidable than it seems. Got all my storage as well as 2 stars (90%, ran out of stars)
Its better with higher level queens though, since they have way more HP

If you can't beat 'em, join 'em.

It isn't the HP that matters so much, with healers keeping them alive, as the DPS - which means they get through the base quicker.

Haha. Was inspired by this rant to use it for the first time ever.

It's really, really amusing.

To say I'm a complete nub at it, had quite a few successes.

Probably a lot easier to take dark than gibarch without the queen, but not convinced it's any better than with queen. The obvious difference being though, my lv38 ends the raid at full health.

Struggled to get round enough other storages in time to make it all-round big time profitable, but it is really fun in a mean spirited kinda way.

There are base designs that can combat this type of attack. Although most players won't have the first idea which ones they are, thankfully.
