TH9 upgrade imminent-what troop upgrades make me stronger quickly?
I am a near maxed TH8 and about to initiate my TH9 upgrade.
As TH8 I have mostly focused on hog and dragon attacks, and would say that at this point I am usually able to 3 star any TH8 base most of the time. My question is what attack should be my first focus when upgrading to TH9 to continue being able to pull my increased weight in war as quickly as possible?
I figure that I will purchase the queen and then upgrade spell factory, laboratory and two camps immediately, followed by another two camps, the CC and the dark barracks (twice for lava dogs). What should my first troop upgrade be? Hogs to level 5 or balloons to lev 6? Or something entirely different? And what attack strategy will be best used while my spell factory is upgrading? Obviously hog won't work without heal and dragon won't work without any spells.
Thanks!!!
