    What would you do/have you done differently the second time around?

    I recently created a second account on a tablet I got for free. My main account is already TH10 maxed defense with only Heroes and walls left to finish. All I do now is Clan Wars and farming for walls and heroes (I already am in Champion League and don't have any intention to go beyond 3500). So, I think it'd be fun to start playing at low-level TH again using all the experience I have gathered over the years. It is refreshing to play with less amount/lower level troops and use more tier one strategies compare to the first time around when I was clueless and employed brute force to pull through.

    I'm currently at TH5 and here's the plan.

    - Neglect to upgrade certain troops completely (i.e. Goblins, Healers) as I know I won't be needing them this time around.
    - Focus on offense, so I will wait until all lab research (except the one neglected) are done before moving on to the next level whether my defenses and walls for that level are finished or not.
    - I plan to push to Master league as early as TH7 (not sure how hard it's going to be going straight up, not sniping to get there).
    - Will start Clan Wars as soon as I hit TH7. I want to know how it's like to go to war as lower TH.

    So far, it's been fun (and loot is amazing again, wow!). I'm sure many of you here have second account (or want to/will start). Share with us what would you do/have you done differently the second time around. It'd be interesting to see how people play basics again when they already are a veteran.

    I would not play this game again once I'm done. It's wasted enough of my time and effort, though not my money.

    What's it like to be lower TH in clan wars? Pffft, everyone could pick you first for easy stars for one.

    If i could have a second account i would 1. Max out everything for every town hall or 2. Make a defenseless account.

    Walls and heroes for town hall 9.

    Otherwise just not play tbh. I've hit that point where I've invested so much time into this game I feel obliged to keep playing.

    Yeah, I hear you. However, I think that if you focus on upgrading offense and not so much defense, you'd have a much easier time playing (much less grinding for walls and such). PLUS, I recently encountered clans with low level defense but superior offensive skills. These kind of clans win almost every time because each of their members can 2-3 star their own bases without any problem (hence they got matched up with clans they can easily annihilate). So, yeah. That's the route I'm headed. Playing offensively and neglect to max out my defense. It's much more fun and less of a chore that way.

    Nothing really, quite happy with the progress I made.
    Now maxing walls and heroes at TH9 before I move to that dreadful TH10.

    Only thing I would have done maybe was not starting this game at all. Had I known it would take so many time and be so addictive...

    There's no way i'd start another game, I got screwed on this one when I hit th10 - I learned my lesson.

    That's all well and good for wars but those types of bases make for really good and easy loot in regular matchmaking. As to the question my 2nd I focused on completely maxing before moving on and at least wall wise my second has almost as many legos as my main. So much easier to get done when you do it at the th they become available.

    My current one is pretty good enough never rushed before

    So maybe I'll try play rush on my 2nd account and see how fast I could reach TH10 or maybe staying at the lowest TH and snipe THs
