If the Golem is the undisputed king of ground-based Beatdown, the 'LavaLoon' combination is the terrifying, uncontested emperor of the skies.
You must learn to absorb massive amounts of damage without panicking, trusting that your unstoppable aerial armada will eventually crush their base.
The Mechanics of the Air Push
As the Hound approaches the river, you drop the Balloon directly behind it, slightly closer to the outer edge of the map.
While the Hound slowly dies, the Balloon reaches the tower completely untouched and drops a bomb that instantly erases half the tower's health.
You must place the Balloon so it physically pushes the slow-moving Lava Hound forward, accelerating the entire push.It is a 7-elixir investment that deals almost zero damage by itself.The single biggest counter to LavaLoon is the Minion Horde; Arrows will instantly clear the sky for your Balloon.
Surviving the Counter-Attack
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.

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 air belongs to the Hound.
