Drop Trophies or Wait for League Bonuses to be Increased

So I am sitting in Champs 3 right now and the loot bonus is decent but doesn't cover my expenses if I use any spells. I am finding loot but it is not easy to get. Usually fighting people with max heroes and max defenses.

My question is should I drop down to Crystal to look for easier loot? Or stay in champs and bank on the loot bonus? Part of me hopes they increase bonuses soon and if I stay in Champs I will be better off in the long run.

I mean I can always grind trophies again if I drop but man I hate doing that.

Thought?

I am in Champs 3,

Not sure what army you are using if you cant profit, are you hitting empty bases? I am for a 200-250k resource grab before any bonus.

It fully covers all my expenses and some.

Even if you only attack once a day, you still bringing in close to 1mill of each resource with this boost.

If I were you, I'd stay in champs with these resource boost and pick off the top sharks till we hear what SC has to offer.

I am making a profit. Mostly on DE and gold but thats cool because I dont have much need for elixir besides my Warden and walls.

What type of army are you using?

I have been using 4 heals + Queen and then 2 golems, 8 wall breakers, the rest wiz and sometimes I throw in witches.

This was my problem in champs too. I dropped trophies and was able to accumulate elixir again.

I think they'll eventually do something to address elixir but for now this is my best option.

This is exactly my question too, although I am doing OK with loot using Barch, my King keeps dying so I can't fight as often as I am used to. Seriously thinking of dropping, but I love snagging 2-4 storages+the league bonus.

Grand Warden needs Elixir, badly. (obscure Gauntlet reference for the older crowd here)

Continues to be my all time fav arcade game to this day. :thumbsup:

If the bonus in champs doesn't cover your expenses, you need to learn a better strategy.

200k/200k/1200k is the bonus for those wondering.

I dropped from champs 2 down to crystal 2 this morning. I fought it for as long as I could but I need elixir for my warden. Even using mainly dark troops isn't helping much because I'm using spells. So far my experience is not great. I haven't seen a dead base yet and nothing offering better loot. The positive is I'm seeing more TH10 and rarely a TH9. I'm going to try again tonight but honestly this is boring. Please don't start a flame fest. It's just my opinion. If you are having a great time then I'm happy for you.

I've been sitting in silver 3 to silver 1 for a week as a TH11. Rarely get smashed for more than 1 elixir and gold storage, haven't gotten my de storage hit yet, and able to farm easily with all goblin raiding (in 5 days gained 7mil elixir, 6mil gold, and 40k de playing about 1-2 hours each evening while warring).

Had been in champs 3 and after factoring in my defenses (which regularly took 3500DE and ~250k each resource) found it was better to drop.

I'm a bit frustrated with your response. I'm a decent attacker. Not close to being the best but to compare your experience as a TH9 to mine at TH11 is similar to comparing apples to oranges. At this point I would pay to return to TH9.
