Complete TH11 Queen Walk LaLoon guide for 2026. Grand Warden air mode, four Healer setup, two Lava Hound deployment, and Freeze Spell timing for three-star war attacks at Town Hall 11.
TH11 Queen Walk LaLoon gains two major upgrades over TH10: the Grand Warden ability makes key troops temporarily invincible during the Balloon wave, and the fourth Air Defense means the Queen must strip at least one AD before LaLoon deploys efficiently. The Warden on air mode flying with the Balloon wave is what separates a TH11 three-star from a two-star -- his ability at the right moment keeps the entire Balloon cluster alive through an Inferno or Eagle Artillery burst.
Standard TH11 QW LaLoon (260 housing): 2 Lava Hounds (60), 4 Healers (28), 26 to 28 Balloons (52 to 56), filler Minions (remaining ~124). Spells: 1 Rage (Queen Walk), 2 Rage (Balloon wave), 2 Freeze (Infernos / Eagle Artillery). Clan Castle: Balloons + Lava Hound (if available). Grand Warden assigned to air mode and positioned to fly with the Balloon wave. The Eagle Artillery at TH11 adds a new threat -- it fires on the Balloon cluster even after both Infernos are destroyed. Time one Freeze for Eagle Artillery specifically.
Step 1 -- Queen Walk: Deploy AQ + 4 Healers on the side with the most exposed AD. Strip one AD plus the outer ring defenses (including the Inferno if it is accessible). Step 2 -- Warden positioning: Move the Warden manually to position just behind the Queen during her walk so he flies into the base with the main Balloon deployment. Step 3 -- Hound targeting: Deploy 2 Hounds toward the two remaining ADs from the Queen Walk entry point. Step 4 -- Balloon deployment: When Hounds engage the ADs, drop all Balloons in a line. Warden follows behind, his ability radius covering the Balloon cluster. Step 5 -- Freeze on Infernos: When Infernos lock onto the Balloon cluster, drop one Freeze per Inferno. Step 6 -- Warden Ability: Activate at the moment the Eagle Artillery begins firing on the Balloon cluster -- this makes all nearby Balloons temporarily invincible through the burst cycle. Step 7 -- Second Rage on Balloon cluster when engaging the inner ring.
The Eagle Artillery fires after approximately 150 housing space of troops deploy. In QW LaLoon, it typically activates when the Balloon wave enters the base. Warden ability activation immediately after Eagle Artillery fires keeps all Balloons alive through the first burst. Time the Warden ability for Eagle Artillery, not for Infernos -- Freeze Spells handle Infernos more efficiently.

Should the Grand Warden be on air or ground mode for TH11 QW LaLoon?
Air mode. He flies with the Balloon wave and his ability radius covers the entire Balloon cluster. Ground mode provides no benefit to an air attack.
When should I activate the Grand Warden ability in QW LaLoon?
When the Eagle Artillery fires on the Balloon cluster. Warden ability makes nearby Balloons temporarily invincible, surviving the Eagle Artillery burst. Do not waste it on Infernos -- use Freeze Spells for those.
How many Lava Hounds should TH11 Queen Walk LaLoon use?
Two. With four ADs at TH11 (one stripped by Queen Walk), two Hounds tank the two most dangerous remaining ADs simultaneously. One Hound leaves an AD firing freely on the Balloon wave.
How do I handle the Eagle Artillery in TH11 Queen Walk LaLoon?
Reserve the Warden ability specifically for the Eagle Artillery burst cycle. When you see Eagle Artillery fire begin, activate the Warden -- this makes the Balloon cluster temporarily invincible through its most dangerous damage phase.
