I don't know what experience you have with this but from my experience, you can't rely on BK to survive with 4+ teslas.

honestly it's not too hard, there is a bit of a challege of getting revenged for 50🏆 and losing raids due to crapy troops but it's been done lots, I've seen a town hall 6 do it, he was in my clan, he was a boss!! So i dont see y u couldnt do it his town hall 6 wasn't even close to being maxed, im soo close to masters myself as town hall 8 and nothing maxed lol, GOOD LUCK🍀🍀🍀
Tenmeister had a nice list. I'm currently TH 7 in Crystal 1 (I think 2478 trophies after getting hit before work LOL).
Like a couple others said, it is a grind but when you get used to what to do it isn't hard. Just time consuming. I actually farm up here now along with push since TH 10s don't get squat from me due to loot penalty.
So, on the teslas if they are the only thing that pops up around a TH it is easy to bum rush the base once you clear bombs/traps even if you don't have a BK iron fist. The BK is great though doing a string of barbs followed by dropping BK and raging him up to TH gathering all those barbs on his way to rage them too.
If teslas are hard for you because other things are firing on you like X-bows, try to pick off one side of the TH's teslas first to reduce their DPS on your troops or maybe even target all the teslas as long as they are next to the TH. That way when you finish off the teslas, they can't hurt you anymore plus the troops that survived will turn their attention onto the TH.
The real grind is around 2450-2500 and up getting to Masters. A lot of nexting and often you next so much that when you see a base U might be able to take, you take chances and go for it instead of being patient.
You can do it! I did it at TH 6 (many others have at lower level) and honestly think it would have been just as doable at TH 5 due to troop strength the same as TH 6 (BArch) and next cost lower (OK not as many troops but the next cost becomes increasingly important the higher you go). But at TH 7 it becomes a bit easier again because BArch troops get to lvl 4 and you have the BK to help out and minions too probably.
You will have LOTS of DE!I keep my DE next to the TH in a farming style Pokeball base. Up to about 2400, sometimes people will just snipe the DE and TH but the higher you go the more your attacker will want to 3 star you for the easy trophies.
Have fun and don't get frustrated when you mess up a raid LOL. I have TWICE had my palms slip onto the edge of the ipad and deploy single barbs when I've been over 2400 cups/trophies. Lost 57 yesterday on two battles from that before figuring out it was my right hand not left hand hitting the screen (hint- don't lay down while holding ipad LOL, much safer sitting upright).
Clash on!
The higher you go, the more selective and patient you should be. BTW, the base layout is less and less important the higher you go too but your base looks fine other than you might want to park the TH outside hoping for that sniper.

Actually I already do most of your advices Tenmeister, Littlefish and everyone, but still... this makes me notice I'm on the long trip to Master, last time I got Master League II with a ????ty lame trophy base, now that I have maxed the TH7 the revenges is taking me all of my winnings cups, makes me anger.
Well, I first decide to get to TH out of the base, the only way to get free shield against the ones who wants revenge, then I keep trying the barch (I really don't have any idea that this strat was so popular) I'm gonna post updates when I get Master II.
Another question: It is posible to make Barbarian King Lvl 5 stealing Dark Elixir also Hog Riders Lvl 2, I'm upgrading Minions Lvl 2, but it takes so damn long the stealing, and I don't know if it's worth...
What you think?

Hmm Masters 2? That is much harder. Just the last 100 trophies to Masters 3 gets real tough sniping.
As for BK, it is pretty easy to get the dark elixir just attacking exposed drills when you snipe a townhall or maybe using lightning sometimes to 'zap' level 6 drills if you see them full (also can zap DE storages). I don't zap dark elixir because I have plenty of it from farming Crystal. But if you plan on pushing to Masters and quickly falling back down in trophies then you may not have as much opportunity to collect DE.
Revenges are worst when you push, especially if you push 100 cups or more in a session or day and when you get into upper Crystal. But if you hang out in Crystal awhile you will find the revenges aren't as bad.
Good luck!![]()
I mean Crystal II, explain me about the "zap"... How I know that the DE is full to expend the lightning on the drills? I don't know this stuff since I'm kinda new in this game.
Thanks a lot!

Go to Clash of Clans Wiki pages and search for dark elixir drills. Then look at what a level 6 drill looks like. There is a very small rectangular container on the back of the drill that shows how full or empty the drill is much like elixir collectors only the rectangular container is a really small part of the drill compared to the big cylinders found on elixir collectors.
Here's a link to the dark elix drill pages (hope it's OK to put link here): http://clashofclans.wikia.com/wiki/Dark_Elixir_Drill
I just mentioned the level 6 drills since they can hold the most DE when full but get to know how all of them look. When you see a drill outside when you raid and/or snipe, pick it off with an archer. If you see 2 or 3 level 6 drills together way inside the base or a DE storage with lots of DE you can hit it with lightning spells ("zap" meaning use lightning on a resource that your troops can't access).
Masters 2 would be harder but you can get to Crystal 2!
If you lose too many trophies on defense then try to make it so you only raid two or three times a day but continuously for an hour or more each time you decide to raid and break your shield.
Also if you use BArch and lose too many raids, stop attacking any THs that are behind walls for the most part unless you are real confident. The higher you go, the more those THs will have just enough fire power and/or well placed traps to get you.
Bring a few minions along. I had a raid where two max level mortars were behind the TH and a couple cannons to the side so could destroy my archers and barbs but there were no air defenses, wizard towers, or archer towers around so I released two minions. They got taken out by air bomb so I released two more and that was all it took to take out the level 10 TH. Plus sometimes they can get to a gold mine where only a cannon is guarding etc...
Anyway, a few minions can really help sometimes with their flying.
One other thing on raiding, when you have other buildings next to the townhall, try to get rid of them first so your troops don't get pulled away from the townhall as you attack and instead work back toward the townhall. I hope all that makes sense. Good luck.
