If the Golem is the undisputed king of ground-based Beatdown, the 'LavaLoon' combination is the terrifying, uncontested emperor of the skies.
However, playing LavaLoon effectively requires an incredibly specific mindset; you are abandoning the ground war entirely, which leaves your towers highly vulnerable to fast rushes.
How LavaLoon Works
The core execution of the LavaLoon strategy is deceptively simple: you deploy the Lava Hound in the back corner of the arena to absorb all incoming anti-air fire.
Furthermore, when the Lava Hound finally dies, it 'pops' into a swarm of six fiery Lava Pups.
- A perfectly timed Lightning spell will instantly destroy the opponent's Inferno Tower and Musketeer, clearing the path.
- Send him to the tower exactly as the Lava Hound pops to tank for the fragile Lava Pups.
- If they rush the opposite lane, let the tower fall; use your elixir to ensure your LavaLoon takes their tower instead.
Sacrificing the Ground
You must rely entirely on cheap 'distraction' units, like the Tombstone or Guards, to kite and stall enemy ground threats.
While the enemy is busy fighting the skeletons spawned by the Tombstone, your Mega Minion can safely kill them from the air.
| What Stops You | The Solution |
|---|---|
| Inferno Tower (Melts the Lava Hound instantly) | Use a Zap spell to reset the damage beam, or use Lightning to severely damage the building and stun it |
| Executioner + Tornado Combo | Do not clump your Balloon directly behind the Hound; space them out significantly so the Tornado cannot group them |
Ruling the Skies
When you perfectly execute the combo and watch the opponent's anti-air defenses completely fail, you will understand the true power of the archetype.
The ground is for peasants.
