How to get FREE elixir in Clash of Clans!

[Kevo]

I doubt SC will "fix" it, you can only utilize this method a finite number of times. Soon you will run out of troop upgrades if you are almost maxed.

Now i only need something to spend that Elixir on

A few minutes before a troop upgrade finish train a lot of the troops that are upgrading (dark elixir troops if you want dark elixir, pink elixir troops if you want pink elixir).
Then as soon as the upgrade finish cancel the troops that you have trained.
You can earn a lot of elixir!!!

DARK ELIXIR:

TRAIN 12 LEVEL 1 WITCHES then after you finish the upgrade to LEVEL 2 WITCHES cancel the training

EARNING = 1200 DARK ELIXIR



PINK ELIXIR:

TRAIN 12 LEVEL 3 PEKKAS then after you finish the upgrade to LEVEL 4 PEKKAS cancel the training

EARNING = 96000 PINK ELIXIR

Translation: How to waster elixir, but THINK you get free elixir, when all you are doing is saving it. You are actually losing it, though, because you can't train anything in the time the pekkas are training, and pekkas are not efficient for raids.

If you do it just before an upgrade finishes, you don't really lose any training time.

When the game was first launched this actually worked for barracks. You had to max the barracks with troops, then press - and it would give you extra elixir. They patched it with later updates though.
