New TH11 barching in Champs with max barch and max giants in the CC. Lvl 26 king, 20 queen, and 2 GW. I use only one rage spell unless desperate.
I am currently winning most of my fights, I've lost a total of 3 (47/49/49) out of maybe 25 since becoming TH11. The big problem I am having is that my king is getting killed almost every attack, and I have to wait 1h20 something for him to wake up. BTW I am not very good with my King yet, this is really the first time I have farmed with him giving he has slept pretty much since I became a TH9.
I'm here obviously because of the loot bonus. With bonus and a couple of storages, I am usually walking away with 250k-350k lix per battle, but those battles are now over an hour apart, rather than the 3 battles per hour that I am used to.
I'd like advice on whether I should drop at this point, at least until my GW is level 5. If I drop to say Master 2 or 3 should I expect bases that I can 50% without killing my king, allowing me to fight more while sacrificing the extra loot bonus?
I know somewhere in the leagues there must be a balance point where I can fight more per hour to better maximize loot profit.
Also, final question: I thought above 3200 cups matchmaking reverted to the old algorithm. As a TH10 I saw 9s every 20 nexts or so. Since becoming an 11, I've seen none. Are they up here for a TH11? Has that algo been changed?
