# TH11 Zap Dragons: Air army

> Lightning an Air Defence off the base, then eleven Dragons take the rest of it.

Town Hall 11 · Air · Three stars TH12 and TH11.

TH11 is where the Eagle Artillery and the Grand Warden arrive, and Zap Dragons is the army that ignores both. Five Lightning and an Earthquake remove one Air Defence before the attack begins, and eleven Dragons walking into a base with one fewer Air Defence is not a fair fight. There is nothing to funnel and nothing to time except the Freezes, which is why this is the army that gets a TH11 through war while they learn the Queen charge.

## How to attack with it

1. Zap the Air Defence furthest from your entry side with five Lightning and one Earthquake.
2. Send the Grand Warden in air mode with the Dragons and keep him behind the front rank the whole way.
3. Drop all eleven Dragons in a line across the zapped side, not around the base.
4. Rage the pack as it reaches the second ring, and Freeze the Eagle Artillery when it starts firing.
5. Balloons behind the Dragons for the defences they walk past, Minions last for the outside buildings.

## What beats it

A base with the Air Defences spread to three corners cannot be zapped down to a soft side, because taking one still leaves two covering your lane. Take the Bowlers into that base instead.
