Why does everyone think they have to attack weaker town halls than themselves?
I am also a new th11 that does not gem, before upgrading I was attacking other th10's and struggling against th11's
After getting to th11 and unlocking the grand warden I found I was destroying th10s and doing just As good on th11s as I was doing on th10s before I upgraded, and getting better loot than I did at th10
The grand warden even at lv 1 makes a huge difference and for once is a hero with great AI that seems to hide behind all the other troops and stay alive till the end of the battle, sure you have to upgrade him and lose the boost he gives you while your waiting but we've all been through this with the archer queen and barb king?

Let's make a few educated assumptions. You are semi casual. You attack like I do 4-8 times a day occasionally boosting gibarch or super queen for some fun once or twice a week. More attacks on prep days, less on war days. And you are near max th10, now recently th11.
High in trophies (champs+), Elixir is completely jacked up, you will take two weeks grinding to save a few million elixir for your grand warden up there. High in trophies, strong bases don't get gibarched. We get gowipe'd or gowi'd. Despite the contrary belief that no one farms with gowipe, you will get hit with this mostly unprofitable army. Attacking with moderate giwibarch armies takes 2-3 attacks to tread water for every defense. THIS IS NOT FUN. There are plenty of storage filled bases... IF you can get at them with your moderate farming army. I like hitting the ring in a ring type bases as Giwibarch n 2 healers can do quite well on them.
So, high trophies are out....
Low in trophies (bronze to crystal) you pretty much never get full on hit with war armies. You will rarely get a shield (1-2 times a week). On war days you will dread your war ccs getting killed by a barched grazing collectors and dropping a poison on them just because... You want gibarch to attack your base because they really only get 1-2 storages at most but would give you a shield, instead you are constantly collector grazed and suicide hogged and other silly army compositions from really really bad attackers. Finding people to attack is not hard (storages). Full collector raids are near nonexistent anywhere. Elixir is still not easy, but you have to keep trophies low, so AQ dropping on some filling elixir collectors hitting her ability can make you several hundred thousand elixir a day alone. (This equals multiple raids high in trophies). Staying low in trophies will be annoying as you are constantly pushed hundreds of trophies higher by droppers and grazers.
So, low trophies are an option....
what I consider the best place to be for a new th11 with similar playstyle is mid crystal to low masters. You will occasionally get hit hard, maybe once every two or three days. The rest of the time just trophy dropped and grazed. You won't feel like a chump hiding in low low leagues at least. The bonus isn't too bad here. If you find you still get hit hard too often and Elixir isn't growing for you, drop down to gold/low crystal.
This is the new reality for us until they stop the elixir hemhoraging at high levels or mitigate defense losses in one way or another.

Low spawn rate for Obstacles? Try this method.
Same thing. Got to th11 a few hours ago. I hoped it was worth it but it seems it is not at all unless you can gem your warden, lab and witches all the way.
Now i am stuck at Masters 1 only 50 Trophies away from Champion 3. The loot bonus is not worth it because you only get matched with th10 and th11. You can't get 50% without war armies. And the ones who have loot in their bases are basically maxed out.
