Queen Charge Lavaloon
Charge the Queen through one Air Defence, then send the Balloons into the hole she made.
This is the attack TH11 players are supposed to learn, and the one that still works nine Town Halls later. The Queen and four Healers take out an Air Defence and usually the Eagle Artillery, and the Lavaloon that follows is going into a base that can no longer defend the side it is coming from. It asks for more from you than Zap Dragons does, and the payoff is that it keeps working all the way up rather than falling off at TH13.

How to run it
- 1Pick the side with two Air Defences close together and open it with the Queen and all four Healers.
- 2Keep her walking until both are down, and use Freeze rather than a spell if a Seeking Air Mine is about to hit a Healer.
- 3Send both Lava Hounds across that side once she stalls, spread so they do not clump on one defence.
- 4Balloons in one lane behind the Hounds, Hasted through the sweeper, Raged once inside the wall.
- 5Minions from the back for the outside buildings, and the King on whatever ground is left.
What beats it. Seeking Air Mines placed for the Queen charge kill the Healers in pairs. If the base has obvious mine spots on the side you want and you cannot bait them, start the charge one compartment over.
The other TH11 armies
Same camp space, different answer. Queen Charge Lavaloon is the one to drop when the base suits it, not the only one worth learning.
