Finally made it to Crystal League and was unimpressed. Matchmaking is bad, and bases are worth more/less than it should be. It wasn't difficult at all, and just sniped or 50% TH7/8 bases a long the way. With that being said, there is a ton of DE to farm and zapped a lot of bases. With nothing to do besides finishing upgrades(1m20d), I guess I'll farm up to Masters. -_- http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/b...ps3aa314d4.png
Uhmm when was Crystal ever supposed to be hard to achieve? I don't understand what you were expecting but okay have fun getting destroyed in masters.
LoooooooooLQuote:

Crystal is incredibly easy to get in to...
There's quite a few juicy bases up there though. Been sat in C1-3 for a good 4 months now just grinding away.
Lol too trueQuote:

Why even post this thread then if the whole point was "uh crystal is no challenge to get in to."? We know it's no challenge...Quote:

Looking at your base OP you should have been in Crystal league by now. Do you farm with all goblins or something?
I go pro and drop 200 Wall-Breakers... Let my CC troops clean up their base. -_-Quote:

Crystal is EASY to get to as a TH8. I barched there farming, and purposely dropped as there are more inactive bases for a TH8 at lower trophies. Heck one of my clan members is not an active farmer and has a trophy base at th7 and his defense's has brought him to 1900 trophies.
Back in the day when I liked farming in gold, crystal was the league that I would always accidentally end up in haha.
Silver I is best for gold/elixir storage's, all over gold for DE. I just wish the game was more in depth... Then barching to the next league. With nothing to do but wait on upgrades, I want something to do during war prep days. Pushing trophies fills the void. Anyway, I never thought it was hard to get to crystal, but I didn't think it would be that easy. Like I said hopefully masters push is more difficult, and requires the use of some braincells.Quote:

You hit inactive th10's with inferno towers offline and empty bases. Gives a chance for a th8 to at least 1 star. Still working on a strat to use for c1 bases though. Not planning on nexting for 2 hours to find 1 snipe base.Quote:

I just barched up to M3 as I have never done it before. I used loonion last time but wanted to try something different. I am a defensive and troop maxed th9 and during my barch from C3-M3 I saw a total of 1 inactive th10. Even some full collector bases had juice left in the discos and xbows. Good luck none the less but without just sniping it will take a lot of patience. Stay on as long as possible because all revenges will most likely 3 star you. Well so will many attacks against you.Quote:

An easy farming composition that will get you to crystal easy is giant, barb, archer, wb, wizard. Send in the giants first, wizards and archers behind. Wbs to break a hole into the core, then send it the rest. /win.

Lol, and when you blacked out your clan name it kinda looks like a dragonQuote:

In masters I 100% every TH7 or TH8 I stumble across because I want the additional trophies and the loot bonus pays for my attack.
Well done.
And great efforts, collect those gems! And wear your purple suit proudly. You earned it!
