Once MOST of your elixir upgrades are done, now you can worry about the Dark.
AMAZING cheap army comp: 12 Giants, 12 WB, 44 Barbs, 44 Archers, 28 Goblins, 1 Heal.
Slightly more expensive but more powerful army comp: 12 Giants, 12 WB, 28 Barbs, 28 Archers, 28 Goblins. 8 Wizards.
I recommend bringing Giants or Wizards in the Clan Castle, this strategy REQUIRES basic funneling and troop deployment skills, if you want some more advanced stuff, check Beakers Lab on YouTube, more specifically his Dark Elixir Time series.
