Help a TH9 Reach Champion League Please!

Okay, this is kind of sad that I have to ask this, but I have no idea what to expect. Right now, I've been farming around 2900, and I have about 3 days before my queen finishes and my DE storage is capped, so I want to hit champs before then. I don't want to spend more than 200-300 gems on boosting. Now I need help getting from 2900 to 3200.

I was planning to GiWiPe to 3000, then GoWiPe to 3200, boost Wednesday (tomorrow for me), Thursday and Friday (the day I want to hit). This puts me at about 100 cups needed per day, and about 60-100 gems per day (not huge issue) as well. Boosted, it takes about 15 minutes to train, and finding a base to attack, attacking it, and having the pre-trained army gives me about 20-30 minutes per attack. This can be kind of hard for a few reasons...

1) Takes to long to train, may not reach goal in time.
2) With new update, may be constantly finding TH9s in Master 3 and below that offer 15 cups for 3-star a lot of the times.
3) The ones with a decent chunk of cups are going to most likely be high level TH10s with infernos that I stand no chance against.

Alternatives can be lavaloonion (probably not, have minimal experience with this and basically takes same amount of time as GoWiPe) and loonion. Have minimal experience with loonion, and I'm scared to try. Barch/BAM/Gibarch/any other farm strategy is pretty much out of question because I just can't, just can't. I played for about 2-3 hours in Master 3 a week or so ago, and I basically ended with just like only 10-20 more cups than what I started out with (due to fails [all of them close, at least about 44-46%]).

I have about 3 hours to play on Wednesday, 5-6 hours on Thursday and 6-8 hours on Friday. I don't care about troop cost as I'll most likely make most of it back in the raids due to high bonus, but I do care about training time (not really) because of limited time. I'm fine with really anything honestly, as long as I can reach my goal in time, and risk isn't super high. Here are my troops:

Only thing is that both my heroes are level 27, but I don't have my queen since she's upgrading, so I just have a lvl 27 king (200 DPS, 3230 HP if it matters). I also want to try to use CC as minimal as possible, because asking clanmates to train a golem, hound, PEKKA, or anything else big for a non-war atk continuously is hard, even just wizards can be hard, so I prefer to save them for only clutch situations.

Sorry for lengthy page-thing, but wanted to give as much info as possible. So main questions:

-What should I use to push to champs?
-What kind of bases should I attack?
-How should I attack?
-What should I attack?
-How hard is it?
-How long do you think it will take?
-How many gems for boosting do you expect I'll need?
-And anything else I should know.

Thank you so much everyone, any help is appreciated.

EDIT: Would mass drags work?

The cheapest way is attacking with balloons, minions and hounds with rage spells .
i don't really see any other way that's not townhall sniping

Boost spell factory and two barracks for loonion attacks. 30 gems is affordable. 30 minions and rest loons, minions for cc donations should be accessible.

Shoot for 50% + TH on th9 that have xbows to the ground, queen not present, CC that is lurable or not in play (dead base with no league badge or gravestones will suffice).

when taking long breaks between sessions, train quatrolavaloonion army. You can wipe out an underdeveloped th9 with that setup. Be picky when you are searching for a base to flatten with this army comp. shoot for at least a 25 cup offering.

You could get lucky and get 100 cups per boosting session. I hit champs today and loonian army comp helped tremendously. The only thing Gibarch could handle was overpowering troll bases with the TH somewhat exposed. It's pretty difficult since new MM algorithm will put you against mostly th10, so persistence and pateince and selecting the right target will be key.

If you have any more questions you can PM me and i will try to get back with you. TH8 will be almost non-existent, and very few freebie snipes. Good luck!

Whatever troops you're familiar with (me lavaloonion), that also answer your type of base to attack too.
What important is you should have both heroes thus wait for the queen upgrade if you can.
Also CC troops with full of archers some wiz could help support your heroes and not that so much to request from clanmates (luckily I have second account th8 with dragon level3 and wiz level5 and Archer level5 which I can relay on).
Look for high cup offers even loot available is not much. Save at least coin and wine for tedious longer search (next) and for training needs. Well at least lucky you may find snipe or even TH troll outside or placed in the first layer wall trust me you could kill this one with minimal spell or none and what import as i said cups offering. Boost factory, one barrack is enough, both heroes too. Watch out for the six hours game limit then log off log on with 15mins with your TH inside. Lastly patience also it is virtue. Before I don't have this I get trouble and error selecting the right proper base to attack. Remind you I even get past 200 search just to pick the right one.

Hope this help and good luck you could do it.

Cheers,
Kj

Okay, thanks, but I'm not exactly concerned with being cheap, especially when it comes to gold and elixir (just as long as I have enough to search/train).

I completely agree with Gibarch being unable to get anywhere. But what would a minimum cup offer be? I'm extremly sure you didn't go for any like 3-cup offer or whatevr unless it was really easy and worth it to get. Is loonion that hard, and what's ur approximate success rate? TH7s and below are sure 3-stars (if enough cups), but how bout TH8s? go for 2-star, I'm guessing (if good cups)?

Okay, thanks. So when you put TH inside for the 6 hour take a break thing, dyou usually get atked? And also, how much dyou recommend saving? I usually save 100K gold and 500K lix minimum.






Also, would mass drags work?

Surgical loon. Easy

[QUOTE= Also, would mass drags work?[/QUOTE]

Against good th9 and 10 absolute not...might get you a measly 50%. Maybe.

Break thing might get you luck sometime without attack, other time get barch with only 50% and without triggering your CC troop save for your next log in...I might save 300k or more for gold. Now for the Army and spells at least you might need more than 500k wine for back up troops queue in the rax. BTW, I don't go back in the village once I started to search know why? The matching making obviously match you higher in the first like 1-60 search later the system will expose you a lower village that you might easily attacked and that's my experience instead of going back and re search once again... Beside that, the heroes started some health regain as I noticing this don't know if other noticing it too but surely you rax queue has started coz after raid I usaully find many troops were trained already.

Good luck other can do you too can,

Okay, thanks!

Loonian success rate is hit and miss depending on the variables already mentioned (AQ and CC status are huge). You can absolutely steamroll any th8 with loonian and a couple of rage spells. But this will be a moot issue since th8 are very few and far between that high up. I would say minimum cup offer should be 15. At least you can get 10 trophies that way with TH + 50% damage.

Okay thanks, so what do you look for in TH9? 30 seems a bit too high, I usually like about 24-26+ but if I get a bit tired of nexting I'll drop to like 20+.
