By the way, many TH8s attacked by TH9s won't be able to revenge much so that's what they will do... ZAP YOUR DE STORAGE to revenge.....:rolleyes:
Fair trade, isn't it? TH9 gets the gold and elixir and TH8 gets DE.... LOL

If I had rushed at TH7, I would have completed skulls earlier right? Then I would move to TH9 earlier, am I correct? Disregard defenses, they would come in time. If I rushed to TH9, I would start my lego farming earlier, instead of having capped storages at TH7 and TH8. Then legos would be done much earlier then I would start lavas much earlier.
You said my point EXACTLY, legos and lavas are only available to TH9, so I should have rushed there. As is, I would finish my lavas waaaaayyyyy before my defenses (2 months before at least), then I would move up to TH10 and start zaps
I read this on reddit, but it makes the most sense: "Every day you delay moving up to TH9, is a day further from lvl30 AQ, and losing 3k DE automatically because of the drills". A TH8 can only produce <2k DE per day from drills, while a TH9 can get 4.8k/day from drills
Your concept is flawed. all of it.
1. you rushed from TH7...to what? TH8? (you cannot do skull walls at th7), so this can only mean that you rushed to th8 with th7 defenses and you only did all skull walls at th8 while moving (aka rushing) again to th9..if so, this is a complete nonsense (!)
2. by rushing to th9, you're putting yourself in a even harder diminishing returns situation, meaning, it's harder to farm for walls because you get less loot then you can get as a th7 or even th8. In the end, doing walls and upgrading your th9 will take you way longer then a non rusher would take.
3. The loss of DE is 2640 per day and not 3k. You delay your AQ upgrade a bit but on the other end, since you rushed, your king; golems; minions; hogs will also be low level (probably level 1~5 on your king when you finished your...rush to th9...while still also having the rest of DE troops all at level 1)...all this "noob" troops just because you rushed...so...yep...you will be wasting tons of DE (and time!!!) trying to recover from your rush. In the end, it won't compensate the rushing that you did.
4. Clan wars...if you rushed as you say, you are putting a huge strength in your CWs, where a) you're weakening your clan in CWs by having less fair matches b) Other TH9s, non rushed, that you'll be fighting against, will be 3* you easily. (hey...i keep 3* semi maxed TH9s in my clan wars..so, as you can imagine, i love it when i find those matches where there's some bases with xbows level 1 and 2...and wizard towers at level 5 and 6...all because they rushed..easy clan war fights lol)
Anyway, i'll be a maxed TH10 with all lava walls and maybe some zap walls long before you even max your th9 defenses...at a rushed th10...gl defending yourself against lavaloonion, gowiwipe, et all.
your welcome
im a maxed th8 that somehow got way behind on troop upgrades, so just upgrading troops before i start the th9 upgrade
my gold is always maxed and since i have no use for it till im ready for th9, its sitting outside my base free for anyone to take
you can take my lix as well since i usually have more than enough for my next upgrade
HANDS OFF MY DARK ELIXIR THOUGH!:mad:
Don't particularly care as now I overun bases with dragons and other expensive armies including bad th9s. Elixer upgrades for Lvl 8 walls were taken away because of all the whinging about loot from higher town halls. Perhaps smug comments like the op's might just convince Supercell to give it back to us since we obviously make it just so easy for you.
I'm 6 days from TH9. 35 more skulls to go to max my base. I raid in 2 hour sessions, loot between 3-4 mill of each and 4-8k dark.
so when a big bad TH9 crushes my base ( I've been 100% a grand total of once), it's a drop in the ocean, meaningless. No gold to lose as it all goes into skulls, elixir goes back to 6 mill in the blink of an eye, dark stuff likewise, and a nice shield till my next session.
So no regrets here on maxing my base, feel free to wait a good hour training up an expensive army capable of beating my base, while I barch 30 times to get 10x more loot than I can lose. :D
Ask yourself, which is easier to raid:
1. A TH8 with level 8 walls and maxed TH8 defenses.
2. A TH9 with level 7 walls and maxed TH8 defenses, plus maxed TH9 X-Bows, Wizard Towers, Hidden Teslas, and mortars? Oh, and an Archer Queen
Gold costs are the same.
Haha, I'm glad you are enjoying it. I have plenty and I won't be playing catch up when I am actually ready for th9. Having my elixer storages full is also funding my trophy push. I'm totally cool sharing some of my excess with the th9s. Ive got plenty to go around. Starting with full skulls in th9 is the only way I will go. And I will just keep perfecting my GoWiPe and hog attacks and get there when I'm done with my walls.
I make lightning spells on boost and zap you guys.. Good way to use lix
