Hi, I am an almost maxed th9 (defenses) with maxed troops. I was wondering what the best army composition was to push through crystal and masters to champions. I want more opinions besides mine and my clanmates. Thanks.

Practically the only way to make champion from th9 is balloonion
Check out my new guide :)
I only got to 2822 as TH9, some time ago now, but yeah I believe balloons and minions (and gems) is about your only decent shot, and you will be picking off 1-star wins through Masters, boosting at least your spell factory (spent some of those thousand gems). When I got to M2, I found it hard to make loot, but I'd say I flat-lined, rather than ran dry (I dropped, because it was too much hard work and I still wanted to keep upgrades going).
You could get to Masters easily enough using plenty of other armies, but personally I'd say you want to get as much practice in using balloons as possible, so start off the way you intend to continue. In particular, getting 1 star vs maxed TH10 bases requires a lot of skill, I've been ballooning for months off and on and I still mess up against the toughest bases (although I'm now a TH10 farming, so use minimal spells).
Of course you could just TH-snipe your way there, like a TH6 did recently (wizards and healing spells), but I'd assume you want something that's a little bit faster and more reliable... hence, balloons. But you'll still need a heck of a lot of patience, and gems for spell factory, it's not easy, even most TH10 struggle once they get over around 2800.
hogs, dragons, minions, wizards, wb anything from that combo will make a good raider :)
Balloon/Dragon. Longer time than Balloonion but more helpful for trophy push.
Barch got me to masters, and others to champions.
Agreed on batch to masters.
I'm currently pushing to champions as a th9, and I find it way easier now that the AQ stays put. I've lost one attack to 3078 cups, and basically you figure out how to 50% maxed bases, rinse and repeat. My last two defenses have been three stars for a total of 5 cups lost, getting to the threshold where Champ league can see you is the key, otherwise it is a long slow roll from 2950 to 3050ish as you lose 5-6 raids worth of cups every time you logoff.
Cheers and good luck!
