Max farming troops, camps and cc.
Splash is also good rest is ok as long as you have max townhall 7 defense.

Minimum buildings:
Max DE storage and both drills
Maxed storages (6mil capacity)
One or more lvl10 barracks
One or more lvl4 Dark barracks
Lab max (building)
Clan castle (?) not sure if you could upgrade it
lvl 5 BK
Preferably maxed splash and TH7 defenses (its okay not to have either)

Minimum troops:
lvl 5 barbs
lvl 5 arch
lvl 5 giants (optional)
lvl 5 loon (war/pushing)
any elixir troops you like to use (for me it was wizards,wb and goblins)
at least lvl1 of all dark troops (no need to level them if you dont want to)

I hit th9 when I was lvl55(Seriously)....So if you're an active hardcore clasher then upgrading farming troops is the only requirement.
Btw I didn't REGRET rushing

I am not yet TH9 but for me level 5 balloons and level 4 minions are required. For defenses: maxed mortar, WT, HT, AD.

I'm upgrading to TH9 right now but I made sure that I had almost entirely level 7 walls ( i think i have 10 walls left that are 6), every one of my troops except for dark troops are maxed out. All other non defense buildings are maxed out, and the only two defense buildings that aren't maxed are archer towers and teslas (archer towers are 9 and teslas are 4) which aren't an essential ingredient to upgrade to TH9 IMO. In the meantime during the 10 day interim ill gather as much loot as I can raiding and warring to pay for the archer queen and xbows soon as the TH is finished upgrading.

Max defense
Max King
Half Skulls
3/4 of the lab researched.
The lab is easier to catch up on then defenses and walls.

I'd rather go up all skulls and only farming troops maxed, then no skulls and a maxed lab.

Just my opinion. Good luck.

My approach:
Do walls first. Keep one builder free just for walls. As soon you complete all skull walls, move to TH9. The upgrade takes 10 days, so start a few days before finishing skull walls.

Upgade just barbs, archers, goblins. And dragons to level 3 for wars. But I suggest you don't waste time in wars if you want to farm and progress.

Just farm for walls all day.
