Your army costs and training time are much more than our 20% penalty on loot and no penalty on league bonus.
2.) I have a new 8.5 as well with about the same troops as you have except for hogs and loons with a lvl4 queen. I am doing really fine in sub 900. My last elixir farming session was 2.25 million with spell factory down. Now I am farming de and getting move than 10K every time still with a big gold/elixir plus. While troops are building I do milking, if troops are full, I do a storage raid. If you are not boosting you can extend the milking phase as long as you dont dump your heroes (maybe have at least them boosted).
