Hey man can you share your base? I'm changing base like every 2-3 days after getting wiped. No base seems to work against th9. Thanks!

And just to reiterate, there is no perfect base. As a TH8, almost every TH9 can run through your base, mainly because of the extra army camp space. Just remember that....Don't toss your base to the way side as it may just be because it's naturally outmatched
Max out everything TH8....the loot penalty when you go up to TH9 is a killer.....after my early upgrade to TH9..the rest of my clan now chose to max out TH8 and it has paid off greatly....In war and raiding. I highly suggest to max out each TH lvl before moving up...it just makes the next level that much easier. Wall upgrade will help greatly in Master and Champ on minimizing damage from attacks.. Just my suggestion.
I rushed TH9, and if I could do it all over again, I would have maxed out TH8. The gold farming at TH8 is some of the best in the game. Now that you have two DE drills, there is even more incentive to hang out.
Although, it does stink not having an AQ. Tough call man. I would say stick with it if you are anywhere near casual. If you are a rabid farmer, then go to 9.
After your builders start getting idle, then move up. No point overstaying at TH8 to get stomped by th9. Base design does not matter, defenses does not matter, cc does not matter. Any good TH9 can wipe the best TH8. Giants lvl6 and AQ would rip any TH8 apart
