On 11 August Balliol's force met Mar's army at the Battle of Dupplin Moor, where the Scots vastly outnumbered the invaders; by ten to one according to Rogers' estimate. Despite this the Scots suffered a serious defeat, with thousands killed, including much of the nobility. Balliol was crowned king of Scotland at Sconethe traditional place of coronation for Scottish monarchson 24 September. Balliol's support within Scotland was limited and within six months it had collapsed. He was ambushed by supporters of David II at the Battle of Annan a few months after his coronation. Balliol fled to England half-dressed and riding bareback. He appealed to Edward III for assistance. Edward supported him, inflicted a defeat on the Scots at the Battle of Halidon Hill in July 1333 and put Balliol back on the Scottish throne. Balliol was deposed again in 1334, restored again in 1335 and finally deposed in 1336, by those loyal to David II.
