Just as there are many names for LaLoon, there are names of other attacks that sound similar or are sometimes even used interchangeably. I will NOT be going over how to use these attacks.
The first types of non-LaLoon attacks is with minions instead of hounds. Loonion was the original air attack back in the day and I even used it to push to champs before I unlocked hounds. It is NOT a legitimate three star war strategy! However, it is a solid trophy pushing or farming strategy. Its less often called Balloonion or Miniball.

Loonion evolved with the introduction of the Lava Hounds. These types of attacks were quite powerful. However, troop space was probably more useful for extra hounds and loons, especially as better anti-air bases and the air sweeper was introduced. Using minions for purposes other than funneling or the odd clean up troop is rare nowadays. At least in serious three star war clans. You want to be serious? Then don't use these old-school methods!

The next set of attack strategies are my least favorite. I was experimenting unsuccessfully with spamming before joining RR. I tried one Penta upon joining RR and vowed to never try again. Essentially, you are spamming hounds followed by loons. With Quad, you trade the extra hound for troops to lure and kill CC troops. This strategy took a big hit with the new AI targeting in the Sweeper update but may see some revival with the new poison spell. Spam attacks can still work if you have a plan to take out CC troops and an exposed enemy AQ with minimal troops, which is rarely easy to do in most war bases these days.

Once again, none of my LaLoon series will focus on these attacks but some of my posts may be useful anyway if you are looking to improve on these non-LaLoon attacks. I'm gonna get SUPER detailed. About everything. Cause I wanna help you to...make love... and clan wars!
