Which troops to upgrade first in TH9?

So I finally gave my TH for upgrade and am now wondering which troops to upgrade first when I finally reach TH9. I use barching for farming and Dragons/loons/hogs/gowipe for clan war attacks. Being a maxed out TH8, I'm finding it a bit difficult to 3 star other maxed TH8s and low TH9s. So my priority would be to up my clan war performance first. Is there any particular troop that make a real difference in TH9? Any attack strategy that is particularly effective than others?

I would like to hear your thoughts and opinion on this. Thanks in Advanace !! :)

P.S: Sorry if this has been already discussed in the forum before OR if this subfolder is not the right place to ask this question.

Loons.

Out of all the troops you listed that you use Loons is the one that gets the biggest boost. Barch if you are only collector raiding and farming and not pushing you can leave at level 5.

Balloon is a good choice for you.
With level 5 Barch, you still can farm well.

I would write down what troops I use the most from top to bottom then start upgrading the troops from the top

1 - Farming Troops
2 - War Troops
3 - Donate Troops

Hogs to L5, and Loons to L6, will buff your War efforts right away IMO..they both get big buffs to that level (giants do too!)


other than that Golems! and Witches depending on your Royal's levels; or Hounds to L2 to buff you B'Loonian raids.


you can still farm pretty effective with 220 L5 Barch + 4-spell cue + 30-pack-CC (L5) as well IMO

FYI: it dosent get any easier as a TH9 to 3 star other fellow TH9s. the learning curve is steep, but the weaponry is available once leveled up.

From what I heard, balloons! become a staple in many war and farming armies and allow much more diverse attacks.

maybe barbs, arch, and giants afterwards? (With giants taking priority, those wreck th8) then I dunno. Maybe hogs or minions.

i recommend loons. with max loons, 4 spells, and max th9 camps, you can 3 star any th8 base whether u use loonian, dragoon etc. that will be good for war while you upgrade your barch. then you can start working on golems/hogs and all the other war troops for th9

If you are struggling to 3 star max TH8s then Max loons and upgrade your dark barracks asap. Lavaloonion just owns TH8s.

For an immediate improvement if war balloons are the easy choice. I did farming first, they were my fourth upgrade. I did barbs->Giants->archers first.
