I'm currently maxed townhall 9 with 60 lavas and rest Legos. My heros are both 18. My clan is pushing so I'm looking at trying to hit champion. I hit masters a while ago so getting that far isn't a problem. I had used balloons on other townhall 9s for 2 stars. I know the best bet would be to use balloonian for 50% but I would like some tips on doing this. Any advice or videos would be appreciated.
snipe ths when you see them try barch or pure archers
Be prepare to fight against TH10 only at 3000 cups range. I am currently float here as TH9 and its extremely boring.
Clear your schedule and be ready to no life it an awful lot. I got bored out of my mind trying it as a TH9and it took all the fun out of the game for me. Mind you, with the barrack boost right now, it is your best chance. Screw barch and mass arch. Send wave after wave of GoWi__ armies and get 2* every time. Don't attack unless there are over 24 trophies available.
GL.
I would say with 1 GEM boost around this is your best time to reach the higher leagues :)

I just made it to Champion with Balloonion as a TH9 last week. I used Quatro-Lavaloonion to 2-3 star other TH9s until it got extremely difficult to find them. In Master 1 and high Master 2, I could go over 500 nexts without seeing a single TH9 or TH snipe. You can usually find some snipes, but sometimes they are very, very rare.
Master 1 is when it gets really tough. Look for the following...
- X-Bows facing down. Very important. If not facing down, they should be very centralized.
- Archer towers very close to the outside.
- Almost all junk buildings outside of the base (collectors, barracks, builder huts etc.)
- Air defenses either very close to the outside, or very centralized. (Not in between).
- AQ preferably centralized.
I'm assuming you already know the basic idea behind using Balloonion to get 50%. Take out archer towers/air defenses first, using a minion to distract before dropping the appropriate number of balloons and rage spells when necessary. Lure the CC while taking out some defenses at the start of the attack. You don't want to forget about it and have to deal with CC troops half way through. If it's archers/wizards, cluster them together inline with a defense, then drop a balloon at the appropriate distance so it gets shot down over the CC troops and kills them. Level 6 wizards will require a 2nd balloon. It's better to use 1-2 balloons to kill the CC troops than to waste a ton of minions.
Also, drop minions to clear buildings as you take out the defenses. You don't want to save your minions for the end and run out of time. Time is critical. It's very easy to run out of time if you go too slowly. You should be able to get a feel for it pretty quickly. It also helps to watch a lot of videos first.
NEVER go into an attack without both of your heroes and all of your spells. Be patient when selecting a base to attack. It's better to spend a while nexting than to get impatient and attack a base you can't beat. Losing one attack can really set you back.
Be prepared to spend a lot of time on this. You need to stay online between every attack. Also, leave your Town Hall outside (and don't trap it!). A TH9 will get demolished up there. Rather than getting 2-3 starred on every defense, it's better to take a 1 star loss whenever possible. Also, in Masters 1, you will start getting sniped by Champions for -1 trophy, which is very nice.
It's also essential to boost your spell factory, and sometimes heroes if you need to.
I second this. WitelightningHWD (Mystlc7) is crazy good at balloonion.Quote:

Balloonion is still your best bet, for TH10 you could be just looking to get 50% from the outside buildings.
There are plenty guides on youtube, basically you just pop balloons to the outside archer towers and air def so that nothing can shoot your minions while they're picking off the buildings.
i did it several times with loonion. only one hero needed. 50%. 24/50 setup. pick some building with minion,then swarm & 1 rage. 2 rage if needed.
You must be patient to attack, try to attack base that have +30 throphies or more..
it will you give you faster progress than attacking easy base only give you 4-6 cups
attacking dead base/ 'little town hall' will give you the boost (loot&cups)
make sure you attack that you will win it :D
