Th9 ridiculously better then th8 (mainly war speaking)

So i have been a th9 for 2 weeks so all i have done offense wise is

army camps
spell factory
clan castle
Archer queen lvl6

But attacking has gone from a struggle to a breeze!

As a maxed th8 gowiping a maxed th8, everything would have to be placed perfect, if i done any error or if there base was done well then it would be a cruddy 2 stars

To attack a th9 would be unthinkable really as i only go for the 3 stars and you wouldnt have much of a chance if they have all the extra defenses built and xbows

BUT as a th9 with the only additions as said above if i take on a maxed th8 its like cutting a melon with a sword!
With being able to have a maxed golem now, using a jump spell to get in the centre, archer queen kicking but behind its just easy!

Iv just taken on a mid th9, with lvl2 xbows, lvl7 mortars and all new defenses up to th8 scratch and it was a little hit and miss but i got the 3 stars!

Im just basically saying this because as a th8 i felt like i had enough with the game, not being able to 3 star my opposite, but now i can go higher and get the 3 star without any troop upgrades as yet!

If your a th8 wondering whats the point, just wait cause you will be kicking butt soon!

Right now you are in the honeymoon stage. 3 starring a TH9 as a TH9 takes some hard to learn strategies, especially when you move towards being maxed. The worst is when you get pitted against a TH10. Even level 1 multi-targetted infernos make it almost impossible to 2 star.

The inferno has little effect on getting 2 star - raged pekkas/heroes/valks will kill the TH long before a multi-target inferno has any effect on them.
The inferno does make it hard to 3* - even a moderately rushed TH10 with multi-inferno is difficult to 3* as a TH9.


@OP - TH9 is the fun one for war. You'll probably find soon that gowipe doesn't get 3* on most decent bases... and you'll need to use more complex combinations of troops. TH9 has the most variety of troops and strategies from what I've seen

Someday if you come across a TH10 because you have lavas and legos on your walls.

Consider this strategy.

I have to say, from experience, going to TH9 w/out learning golem based attacks was definitely harder for war. No more mass hog raids. AQ will wreck your hogs in no time.

EZ

Technically speaking OP th9 over th8 isn't too far from th8 to th7.

While th9 might get the Archer queen while th8 doesn't, th7 doesn't get the pekka, golem, any dark spells, Valkyries and more defense levels.

So yeah complaining that th9 is overpowered is really nothing compared to the argument that th8 is overpowered.

When I was a th8 I 3 starred other 8s with goho

Third ad is huge on th 8, with 2 ads there is no way to stop even lvl 2 dragons and lightning.

My experience a middling 7 can destroy any 7. A good th 8 can 3 star a max th 8 some of the time, little less than max most of the time. A amazing th 9 can 3 star a good th 9 some of the time. A good th 10 can 2 star a th 10 most of the time, don't see a lot of 3 stars. That you can 3 star the level below you is kind of assumed except maybe 10s on really good 9s.
