    BARCH or not to BARCH that is the question

    Everyone says BARCH BAM etc are best but the maths doesnt work or am i wrong? I can have 220 troops so equal split 110 arch 110 barbs. My archers take 22 mins @55x25secs but if i do 2 wb 2giants 7 arch 7 barbs 7 gobs it takes 17mins. This is quicker and im getting great loot from it. Its all about speed and payback, im in cystal 2/3 and im getting average 150 each per attack. Please insult me call me and idiot whatever but BARCH isnt the BEST.

    your archers take 22 min? mine take waaaaay less due to barracks distribution, you are suppose to use a little more barbs (that is kinda on your side)
    and "2 wb 2giants 7 arch 7 barbs 7 gobs it takes 17mins" I assume you meant 22 giants? 12? uh?

    Personally I find barch really boring, but that's probably got more to do with the fact that I am truly awful at using it.

    Barch takes me 18 mins to train, giant wall breaker combo (16 giants 10 wb rest barch) takes 25. Barch is much better if you are playing constantly.

    In my opinion BAM is the ultimate th9 gold farming army, it uses some DE but that's not as valuable as it once was, so BAM is the way to go

    if you are trying to compare what you do time wise you should probably compare it to bam rather than barch since you are willing to use DE to raid. bam is faster. Throw in some giants if your only goal is how fast it will be ready.

    I had a similar conversation with someone yesterday who said Hogs/archers was a better option.

    timing aside, the idea of barch for me is to focus on stealing resources whilst getting around defences.

    That negates the use of anything that will focus on defences first.

    Barch raids should be in, loot, quick 50% and out. Giants would only slow that up in my mind.

    Both methods are very quick and have advantages and diadvantages. BARCH is better if you need elixir because its much cheaper but relies on inactive/badly defended/edge storage bases (unless you use spells and that defeats the time issue) whereas giant based attack gives you more options on what base to attack (so less time/money spent nexting). It all depends on what your aim is.
