Well, it is really a lengthened ttp...with centralized tesla. But I would say no. Many th9 and th10 bases still get two starred regularly, so a th without x-bows or infernos...tricky. I would abandon a classic base and hope to protect my th at all costs to avoid two stars...and remember:
bloons
hogs
gowipe
gl!
Pretty much any base can reach master league its ALL about attacking!Quote:

I am going to disagree. Every time you log out, you will get levelled. Unless you are on 24/7, you will tread water.

yea i would just recomend staying active for a very moments at a time and take full advantage of your sheild because most of your raid will be 2 stars. aim for week gemmers and week bases and i recomend you use balloon minnion statagy attacking
My balloons are level 5 and minions are unfortunately level 1. :(Quote:

Farm more, strengthen up and come back when you are stronger
The most efficient way to climb to master league with TH8 would probably be to simply leave your TH outside for the 1* shield, and obviously stay on for as long as possible at a time. Some attackers will take the TH and continue to 3-star you of course, but nowadays there are also a TON of farmers between 2000-2600, and none of them will pass up a return of 55k/55k/200 for the cost of a handful of archers.
I am using that base with very minor modifications I made.
As someone said, it is all about attacking. Once you hit Crystal 2 you will be 3 starred no matter what base you have (I have maxed walls and defenses).
Modifications I made which worked for me are:
1. Close the funnel
2. Take TH out and put CC in the center. (Yes :) I will explain below)
3. Put DE storage in the center heavily defended by WT, Teslas, and giant bombs. DE is all I care at this stage.
When I had TH in the center I was getting 3* every night, loosing up to 40 cups (when it was revenge) and all resources.
Since I moved TH outside, CC is now better positions, DE better protected, and I loose only 9-12 cups (1 star) and no resources.
Attack wise, Hogs is the word. I am using 26 hogs, 22 archer, and 12 wizards (CC with wizards) and 3 heal spells. Total training time is 26 times. I am almost 2400 cups. Hogs are expensive (around 1200 DE per attack) but if you choose the bases carefully you will not loose that much. I have been raiding with hogs for 4 days, went up 600 cups and have a net loss of only 18k DE.
Hope this helped. Good luck.
P.s. my target when i started to push was Crystal 1. But timewise I can push for 5 more days, so I will try to reach master.
Just an update.
Having TH outside is still working great. Of course I will loose the cups, but as I said, at this range you are guaranteed to loose.
Had a serious attack last night. 20 lvl5 hogs and 6 lvl4 drags. The teslas and CC in the core worked grea. He got only 3 storages and could not touch my DE.

Just had our clans push and at an almost maxed (95%)Th8 with no defences upgrading could not make masters :(( first time I have been beaten by a game when I really tried and I mean really tried.
As several others have already posted up here, it's all about attacking and activity. I was doing crazy amounts of both and as I got into crystal 1 stated to go nowhere, as another clan mate put it "its like being a hamster on a wheel" :mad:
Th10 bases with 3 xbows and inferno towers are not fun to try to attack with 200 Level 5 troops, I lost many cups with 45-49% attacking loses and many more within a few minutes of going offline. As a Th8 my base just wasn't strong enough to fight off 240+ maxed troops and on serval days a 3 star lose cost me almost all my cup gains for the day. The CP eventually ended with my hi being well short of masters at only 2440
I have read other thread were the Th8 players proudly announce their masters achievement, salt and wounds is all I can say to that ;)
I suppose you could just spend hours searching for farming bases to snipe! but thats just not how I roll. I'm now maxed out and upgrading to Th9, will be giving masters another shot in a couple of months. But for me Masters at th8 never happened.

This morning, I made a single attack... I found a TH8 at just over 2500 trophies, and it was nowhere near a maxed out TH8. Their army was archers, barbarians, and 10 level 1 hogs. I'd guess they were TH sniping... there are loads of TH8 in Crystal now, and loads more exposed / semi-exposed TH, as compared to say a month or two ago. Certainly their base was going to lose every time on defense... I laughed because my army wasn't really good against their design (level 6 wiz towers, central high air def and tessla all level 6), so I just missed their TH and got a 1 star win, but I still got 11 trophies and over 300k elixer from them. As per above, no TH8 is going to get you to Masters on defense, you have to be able to win more on offense than you lose when you log off...
I've been using level 5 balloons with level 4 minions, farming really but seeing how well they can do. I've got to about 2480 trophies so far, with a few losses... some losses were deliberate as I farmed 300k+ from collectors, some were because I overestimated my ability to get loot as well as 50%. It's pretty tough picking the right base to attack, even with level 4 minions and lots of spells, and I've got an archer queen too (I'm a recent TH9).
I've come across a few easy targets all the way up to 2500 trophies - if I were just pushing trophies, I beleive I could certainly get over 2500. Not sure about 2600... possibly, you'll still be able to be offered bases around 2500 cups and even that high up I beleive the landscape has changed lately; because so many people are trying to push trophies for gems, I beleive more high trophy farmers are exposing their TH in the hope that trophy pushers will take them out and move on.
Usually these "exposed" TH are not a complete freebie, but for example yesterday I did find a TH10 around 2500 cups, with a TH totally exposed in a corner, not even any tessla anywhere. I took it using a single minion, and got my nice big crystal 1 league bonus, so it was win-win (their loot was very well protected, and their collectors were empty).
If you only have level 1 minions, I'd say you could get to Masters with balloons and minions, but it will be through persiverence and taking the few easy targets you can find. Take a few archers too, as they have a longer reach than minions for sniping. Take archers in your castle, for helping get to 50% if you muck up. Brew 2 wall breakers too, to help your king get past a wall and get to 50% if you muck up. However, I think with level 1 minions getting 50% will be quite difficult as you get higher up - mostly you'll be looking for TH near the edge, and throwing your balloons and minions at it. So I'd say make the most of opportunities to get good loot early, especially DE, as the closer you get to masters the less looting you'll be able to do.
The great benefits of balloons and minions are: cheap (16 balloons cocts less than 60k elixer; 60 minions costs a bit of DE but if you can get a few stores or full drills here and there it's afordable), and quick to brew (32 minutes) so you can stay online as long as possible. Boost your spell factory, and always raid with 1 lighting, 2 rage. Try and keep your king alive, and your clan castle full of archers (maybe a dragon). Also, balloons and minions can successfully deal with inferno towers and/or hidden tessla, as well as archers towers, and an air defense or two - your main problem will actually just be high level wizard towers, so avoid TH guarded by lots of those.
I used to use dragons and minions, but it was difficult maintaining enough elixer and the brew time was a bit too long.
I guess if you really just want to snipe your way to Masters, you could also do what the TH8 I found was... brew archers, barbs, and a DE troop (I'd use minions, over hogs). That's the cheapest, fastest army you can brew, but it does mean you are completely reliant on finding very exposed TH, and as you get close to 2600 I beleive you'll struggle to find many that such a simple army can get.
I feel you need th 9 to reach master league because withouth x-bows its hard to win defenses
Inferno towers help at th 10 too
