Decrease balloon train time

As a town hall 9, there arent many strategies to trophy push with. Balloons and minoins are the best one in my opinion, and really the only strategy that can consistently win above 3000 trophies. To train just 20 balloons takes 40 minutes, which is a pretty long time for a single army. Because of this, many people are discouraged from using balloons, and therefore trophy pushing at town hall 9. Decreasing the balloon train time would encourage more people at town hall 9 and town hall 10 to trophy push, myself included. And since the majority of gem money comes from people trophy pushing, constantly boosting barracks and gemming things to completion, this could even make Supercell a little more money. Yes, it would cost 10 gems or so less to gem balloons to completion, but more people would buy gems to fund their trophy push if balloons didnt take so long to train.

This is a pain with the waiting time. But ballons are worth it. With a smart man/woman using them, they can either maneuver around AA(anti air) or destroy them first. The higher lvl ballons have a decent health and a very high damage. They are worth it. In my opinions, 7 minuts for a single wizard is my problem. I hardly ever use them because of it. It's like spending 1500 elixer for an archer with just more damage. They die too easily. I get the whole idea of low health but high damage, but at least change it to 4 minute training time.

I agree

Both balloons and wizards are amazing troops but take too much time it takes a crazy amount to gem them and I can't afford to wait, I'd be very happy if the training time was changed.

My experience with balloonies is that Im not waiting for my loons to train, I'm waiting for my spells to finish. I never try and push with them, rather i push with barch, its much faster to train in my mind. So i get that you could just gem your spell factory for 10 gems but i have never found myself waiting for my loons its always waiting for spells.
