    COC Youtubers: My Past/Present/Future - Your recommendations for the community!!

    Past:

    When I first got into the game back in
    November I did some research and ended up finding Simon Tay, Flammy,
    and Patrick(PlayClashofClans) to probably be some of the more
    established youtubers for CoC. While I found all three of their
    information entertaining I would have to say I learned the most from
    simon's early content and Flammy's “lets play” series.

    Present:

    Now there's at least 30 or so youtubers
    basically trying to follow the trend but IMHO providing the same
    information others have in the past. Of course within those thirty
    you have that small handful (hannibal, pingfao, moe to name a few)
    that have been able to provide a different outlook on trophy
    hunting/farming/base setups using various troop combinations. Even
    though I find only a few worth while, I have probably watched all of
    the up and coming youtubers just to show my support as I appreciate
    what they are doing for the coc community ;p

    Plus there's just some that are way too
    hilarious and/or entertaining not too watch ( I think Gods0n might
    fit in this category :] )

    Future:

    I guess since my two accounts are
    TH8/TH7 I was hoping to find more youtubers that are providing
    refreshing content for trophy hunting, revenge hunting, base analysis
    and farming but at higher trophy counts 1700-3000.

    My questions for you all are:


    • Are there any current youtubers
      that provide these kinds of videos? I haven't had that much luck
      finding them.
    • Who are your favorite you-tubers
      and why?
    • For the newer members of the CoC
      community who would you recommend them to watch and why?

    Sometimes I spend weeks looking for
    things that are right in front of me but since these Youtubers don’t
    do a lot of self promotion I never see/hear about them.

    Thoughts?

    P.S. A little bit about me: A 31-year
    old video gamer who used to play various FPS and RTS games
    competitvely throughout my high school and college years( quake,
    warcraft). I revamped my lifestyle in 2004 and picked up competitive
    bodybuilding for the last 7 years as a alternative to my indoor
    addictions. I was able to use my addictive mindset to best bodybuilder i can be naturallly and
    was forunate enough to earn my Pro Card in 2011. After
    getting married in 2012 I have realized that I can't put it in the
    hours I used to but have honestly not found a quality game to play
    until I picked up COC for my iphone in November of last year.
    Currently working overnights, I now have more time on my hands and am
    basically searching the forums in btwn battles to learn more about
    COC's “end game.”

    Don't really have an answer for ya but I wanted to reply to say that I'm impressed by your short autobiography

    E: I skimmed/skipped 90% of the OP until "bodybuilding" grabbed my attention, so I only read the last part. Reread the whole thread and noticed you mentioned me. <333

    MrForever for farming
    Hannibal Barca for the more advanced bases

    what your looking for is someone to show you how to do it, IMHO you need both of these guys! Trophy hunting doesn't provide a lot of loot, so either you pay gems to provide you with elix or you split your attacks so you can farm the resources you need.

    Before I get flamed, as a farmer you can learn how to break into bases and practice your attacks, when I'm farming I often 3 star people because I like the win and then drop trophies. You will need to adopt a hybrid strategy of attacking easy bases for the trophies and harder bases for the resources. This will get you to 2000 trophies.

    The other thing you do need to focus on is great base design. A good well thought out base will gain you trophies while you sleep. I would not go above 2000 trophies until you've mastered the art of attack and your base is well defended, otherwise you will find that the battles are discouraging and give up.

    good luck

    I started uploading videos on December 15th, since Patrick had not completed/posted videos of the last few Single Player Campaign maps. I then started posting videos of replays (mostly epic fails), followed by videos on how to farm.
    I believe the bulk of players are farmers, and will always be until they are TH9 and almost maxed their defenses.
    I'm level 79 and still have a lot of farming to do, so no interest in trophies just yet.

    Regarding youtube channels, here are some you can look at.

    Really learn alot from these youtube channels, apart from the forum, clan FB and CoC wiki

    But I've notice many channels are starting low level "lets play" series to cater to new subscribers.. its good, but not useful for high level players like us.

    You can really see which channel is out there looking for likes and subscribers, while some are just for their own usage, not much publicity

    In no order of priority,

    1) Junliang/TF2Chicky's Channel- My channel, TH8, some Defensive replays and recently uploaded 2 raiding vids. But I don't really advertise/promote much, just for fun and to keep track of my replays before I lose them after a week or after a maintenance haha

    2) Flammy5's Channel- Many stuff, but raiding quite limited to mid level giant+healer combo
    3) Simon Tay's Channel- The place to learn all the necessary tricks and tactics. Raiding vids quite limited though
    4) Hannibal's Channel- High level gameplay, I like.
    5) switchfs3's Channel- High level gameplay, I like.
    6) TroyParry74's Channel- has 3 accounts, th7,th8,th9. Hope he can create individual playlist for them though
    7) Daddy's Channel
    8) TJwTC's Channel
    9) Patrick's Channel
    10) JP's Channel
    11) Lt Nixon's Channel
    12) MrNarutokun406's Channel
    13) ClashOfClans101's Channel
    14) ClashOfClansKing's Channel- quite afew high level farming vids
    15) Battle Votex's Channel
    16) Pingfao's Channel
    17) MoeFakhouri's Channel
    18) MrLeSway's Channel
    19) Kris's Channel-My clan leader's channel
    20) Gods0n1's Channel- his new channel: gods0n coc's channel
    21) 9i89yi8's Channel- One of the forumite's channel, high level trophy hunting with barbs/archers. But his vids are all badly filmed, better watch on mobile device or strain your neck.

    For those that have a youtube chnl themselves, share it here
    I will most likely subscribe if you have some decent coc vids haha.

    EDIT: Woah, gained a subscriber from this post not bad
