This is my 1st post so bare with me. I won't have picture to prove because I don't know how to do that nor the time or desire. I'm having too much fun playing. If you listen cool. If you demand proof you will just have to try it out and see. I have multiple accounts that I play in different ways

My main account is a near max th10. I'm currently collector raiding in crystal 1/2. It takes longer to find one post update. Sometimes 200 nexts. However the loot has increased from 300-400k to 500-600k per raid. The amount I make per day is less cause of the nexting but I'm progressing just a little slower than preupdate.

I have a mini th10 that was defenseless. Currently I have some defenses that are around th5/6. I've been using the newly coined "milking" with only barch in silver and bronze. Getting lots of resourses with many quick raids. I do that while hitting next on my main account. Yesterday I got over 1.5 mil gold 1.5 mil elixer and over 8k de pkaying through 2 30min vilage guards. Even though I lost half of that because I get 3* from weak defense I can still progress. Actually I didn't lose half cause I put most of it to work.

Another account is an account that i have never attacked with. Preupdate it was defenseless now defenses of a th5 minimax. Everything is farmed from my own mines and pumps. It's a rushed th9. Preupdate it would get 3* every time just like it has post update. Progress has been much slower at th9 but there has been no change because of the update.

It is still possible to play this game in multiple ways and make progress. I may discuss how I do it in another post but for now:
off>def
use armies that are cheap (no spells) and train quickly (barch/gibarch)
Or none at all

Happy clashing!!!
