Just Made Crystal

[PrinceTaz]

I JUST MADE CRYSTAL LEAGUE!!!Ok now that things have calmed down........ I am in crystal 3 with a maxed out TH7 except for walls. I made it here by trophy pushing and town hall sniping, I think I can easily get up to crystal 1 if I keep attacking. I almost made it out of crystal 3 but I went to brush my teeth and I got attacked. Would it be a good idea for a TH7 to get into the masters league? I am currently trying to get all crystal walls.

Congratulations! Go buy the pirate flag.

Now, fill up the stores and push on to Master --- you can do it!

Why are you pushing? And if you want to get to masters, it will take you a long time. People stop leaving their THs out in crystal 2 and 1.

For the achievement, the achievement!!! It took me 1 week back in May. I'd think that TH sniping would have improved since the addition of war bases --- hafta hear from those that are currently farming C1-2.

However, on my push, except for the last 75-100 cups there was a good number of 8s for 1 starring.

I heard town hall sniping to masters is easier than getting into crystal.

You mean that you heard that sniping to Masters is easier than getting Crystal legit?

Well... yes and no.

TH sniping to Masters:

• Individual raids are easier (I mean, really. How hard is it to spam all your troops on the TH even with teslas surrounding the TH)
• More dedication is needed (You can't get off for 5 minutes without getting three starred if you're low level)
• Less base development is needed (200 level 4 archers and maybe a barb king is more than enough to get any exposed TH, teslas or not)

Standard raiding to Crystal

• Not entirely skill-less (You need to be a decent giant-wizard user and use wall breakers like a pro)
• Less dedication is needed (You can float up in trophies even if you don't session raid at all)
• Requires base development (I have level 5 giants, wizards, and wall breakers as well as a level 6 barb king mid-upgrade, and I'm comfortable here. I am even raiding for loot and surviving.)

Oh dang that was pretty thorough. I run with 160 level 4 archers and level 4 barbarians and level 1 barbarian king. TH sniping is pretty easy, the only problem is that I lose trophy when I get attacked

I'm currently right at around 1950 trophies, hopefully gonna reach Crystal by tonight. (TH 8 by the way). What do I do after that? Snipe to Masters? Loot? Loonion? Dragion?

[PrinceTaz]

Well your going to have to do something. Don't stay in that range, push through to crystal because I got attacked so many times in that range. I am pushing to masters.

Wow! Just... Wow. Perfect summary. Nicely stated! I can only add, if you want the achievement, go for it. If not drop down and farm your TH to max TH 8. Then make the march to masters. Once you have been there the seal is cracked and its easy to drift upwards. Once TZh 8 is maxed TH 9 will be a breeze!
Oh, and nice job! Congratulations!
