No joke, I started playing because TJ Jones or Kendall Moore or someone was tweeting about the game. So I looked up what it was... then downloaded it... and now I'm waste deep in that game. Can proudly say I haven't spent a single dime on it yet though haha

I played for a long time. Was too addicted and deleted it. It took away from my IE time.

I've been playing for 24 hours and I'm pretty sure it's going to get me fired.

I made the rookie mistake of spending all my gems to start with on speeding up production of troops.

I eventually hoarded enough that I fast-tracked a couple defense constructions after I upgraded my town hall to lvl 8.

Also, I'm about to break down and youtube some of the best village layouts for defense / protecting resources.

Also, the new commercial for the game is hilarious lol.

I saw it for the first time while I was doing a hogrider raid. Had me rolling.

We need to get you, me, and irish.ca in the same clan. Irish man3 what level are you at?

I've never thought to youtube/look up best base layouts or raid strategies. I should probably do that. I was up in Crystal II and hit a bit of a brick wall. Was having to search 30+ bases to find one I could raid, and was getting obliterated every time I logged off. So I dropped trophies down to Gold I where it's easier pickings.

Crystal II? That's no joke lol. I've been hovering around Silver I for a while now. I'm in an odd spot where my village gets raided for minimal trophy losses, but I can't execute successful raids to save my life. I'm behind the times with my attacks I guess. I usually load up on giants to take out defenses and let barbarians clean things up, but it's hard to find a good haul with all the "compartmentalized" base setups out there now.

Regardless, I'm more concerned with stockpiling my resources at the moment so the trophies aren't a big deal to me yet. Once I save enough to build two x-bows I'll redo my base layout and I'll start pushing for trophies.

I used to go heavy giants with a couple wall breakers + 2 healers + barbs or goblins. It works really well when people only have 1 or 2 air defenses as you just start with those then deploy healers and all is well. BUT once people start having 3+ air defenses, it kind of sucks... and it's expensive.

Here's what I've found... your most efficient form of raiding is to get Archer V and then just mass 200 archers. Find someone with a base that has full collectors and has them on the outside. Raid for 100-200k+ gold and elixir and a 1 star win. This works all the way up through gold, and is very cheap and also fast to train. I keep my barracks full queue such that if I only use ~100 archers in the raid by the time it concludes about another 30-40 have trained and I only have to wait a couple minutes to have full camps and go again.

It doesn't work once you start getting up against a lot of TH9 and TH10 in the higher leagues where people have high level mortars/wizard towers as well as x-bows and inferno towers. The archers get melted way too fast by x-bows. So up there, I use like 20 hogs, a couple giants, and then healing spells or healers... and depending on whether I'm going for resources or trophies goblins or archers for cleanup.

My defense sucks. So what I've done there is just stuck my TH outside the base hoping people take the bait and raid it for trophies giving me a shield and protecting my resources for 12 hours lol

Jump spell and 100 goblins is a great return on investment. Giants barbs.wb's and archers sprinkled in as needed.

My clan is canada donates. There is a cd2 as well. Awesome donating clans but you have to work your way up. Yes we have south of the border members too. I usually have 2k donates per 2 week session. Our record is just under 6k which is crazy! You have to start in cd2, tell them conban1 sent you from cd1.

Yeah, my clan is all Australians lol. A lot of lvl 100ish guys who donate lvl 6 troops so it's nice. Just now starting to train lvl 6 archers.
