I came back to the game... and decided to quit within a day
Having been gone for a year now, I wondered what happened to clash. Clash of Clans has been a big thing in my life for the prior 5-6 years and one does not just forget about it just like that. I've managed to not check a…
Day 593, finally maxed
Start date: 26th Sept 2018 End date: 21st May 2020 Total time: 604 days - 1 year 7 months 26 days I didn't post this as soon as I maxed, probably should have but I have lost interest in the game. People who have been rea…
Day 589, final building
2 free builder potions, no-brainer here Traps gain a decent 22% growth which is actually just used to counter regular WB. For all normal usage, they are pretty useless. For 12v13, these trap upgrades do nothing. Hammered…
Day 586, special offers
Free 50 gems from shovel of obstacles. I didn't buy the research potion but I realised that it was discounted at 50 gems. At that price point, it was actually a good deal because usually BoF is 925 gems which can skip ma…
Day 583, May 2020 CWL
Our clan did really well the last season and we are now getting promoted to Masters 2 for the next season! I'm quite proud of what my clan has achieved this season because it took quite a bit of team work and definitely …
Day 582, maxed BH buildings
Finally maxed out my defenses in BH9 and now I have walls remaining. I think I still need 1-2 months before I can max out my walls. Nothing much here since I'm not interested in pushing the BH. Used a book here to skip 1…
Day 578, the trap grind
Took these pictures 3 days prior: 5% increase to archer towers which is comical. I know they want to add 2 levels of archer towers, but they can easily be a 15% increase for a total of 30% increase. In fact, every defens…
Day 574, May 2020
The "lego" BK looks funny but I don't think I like it. I am not buying the gold pass for the skin anyway, the 20% discount is well worth it by itself. This is probably the last gold pass I buy until the next update, I am…
Day 571, April Clan game rewards
Valks lvl7 are a decent upgrade, with a proper 20% increase in hp but less than 10% increase in dps. With electro dragons, valks in their current stats are completely unusable because people space out their buildings. Ho…
Day 570, end of April season
Almost end of season so I need to claim all season pass rewards. Two events going on and I need to make 30 raids in 4 days to gain 40 gems. I will try but I don't think I'll make it. This is my bowitch yeti army. I use 3…
Day 568, boring day
Base looks exactly the same. I'm just grinding the last few upgrades and I'll be done. Upgrades ongoing here. The problem of TH12-13 upgrades is that I'm just waiting for time to pass and getting very minimal improvement…
Day 565
Hammered another mortar here, nothing exciting. Upgraded my low level bomb, if only everything grows like this right? 33% increase is just the right amount of power you need every single level to notice its increase in s…
Day 564
100 gems from donating 2000 spells, I'll take it. As my defenses are completing soon, the theme of defenses start to match the color scheme of walls. We need full lvl14 walls now so that defenses are more pretty. Growth …
Day 562, lvl6 valks
Final level mortar is just another 10% increase which does nothing obviously. Mortars were already one of the weaker defenses, so a new level would do nothing really. Given that scattershots attack much faster and have 4…
Day 560
I only need to farm gold right now, so using a bowitch army makes sense so that I can get 1.5-2mil gold per login without caring about elixir and DE. If I need to farm at least 2 resources, then I'll go back to barch. St…
Day 558, valk lvl5
Another level of valks and the greatest increase is yet again the cost. This level of valk gained 200 hp because lvl4 was nerfed by 100 hp, not because it broke the trend or anything. Given the poor dps increase (TH10 va…
Day 554
Used some gems to skip 3 hours of waiting time. Just spending it now so that I don't need to wake up at 12midnight to start a new upgrade or waste 5 hours of builder time. It isn't the best use of gems to be honest but I…
Day 553, Apr CWL season
Gotten enough stars this season to get the 250 stars achievement. Took the 250 gems and moved on Triple threat isn't too bad for a pack, its $3.33 (USD) per book which will allow you to upgrade one troop, one spell and o…
Day 550, spending gems to get discount earlier
Spent 100 gems here to get the 15% builder boost early, this would apply the additional discount to 3 upgrades which would reduce my builder time by a total of 18 hours. This is better than directly gemming the 18 hours …
Day 548, Super wall breaker
After finishing my one week stint of super barbs, I'm now forced to use a different super troop and I chose super wb for war usage. Their stats aren't too bad, but their 8(!!) troop space really hinders their usage. My b…
Day 547, maxed bomb towers
Bomb towers gain 12.5% in their stats, probably not going to make much difference in the end. With super barbs now, they aren't really game-breaking for the barch playstyle. At least now they do much better after the rec…
Day 546, maxed walls!
Less than 4 days after the update and I've maxed walls again. It was actually far easier than it seems especially for someone who has stockpiled all the magic items prior. I did 22 walls on day one with all my runes, wal…
Day 545, April season bank
Got the 25/25mil which allows me to upgrade another 8-10 walls. I need to buy the season pass first though... I'm quite fortunate that my job is even more in demand during this time of need and I'm actually getting 1.5x …
Day 544, maxed barbs
Super barb stat changes improvements: Dps 180 -> 200 (11%) HP 1000 -> 1100 (10%) I had super barbs before I made this upgrade so I can only comment on super barbs. I actually couldn't feel the difference between lvl8 and…
Day 542, March 2020 update!
The first new thing I upgraded in this update. 50k DE is nothing to me so I don't understand the complaints people bring up. Super barbs make it so much easier to get the 1 star without QW so he's quite worth it. I would…
Day 539
Used the hammer for another WT upgrade. Scattershots, infernos and WT are the most expensive upgrade of TH13 so it is a good idea to use hammers for their final levels. For new, rushed TH13s it is a good idea to save you…
Day 536
Not much progress here, just started a new upgrade. Another penultimate level of mortars being upgraded. SC will add another level on top of this upgrade but that will only happen in another few days of this picture. Thi…
Day 534, upgrading haste
This picture was taken before the update (no waterfall). Just some boring upgrades here, did an archer tower to the old max level. I was quite exasperated by +6 dps archer towers but SC repeated it again with another +6 …
Day 531, two cannons upgraded
Hammered a cannon here because it is my most expensive upgrade remaining. Used a book here for another cannon to skip 12 days. Each magic item used skips a total of 2 days which is pretty good. I am about 2 months away f…
Day 528, maxed giants
I'm using electro dragons here because of the electro event but the training time really affects the effectiveness of this farming army. Right after I did the 12 raids necessary for the event, I immediately switched back…
Day 525, hard-earned medals
Had to take a pic to show my medal gain with multiple destroyed buildings. 384 medals mean 3 more hammers to skip around 36 days of upgrades after gold pass discount, which is 6 days off my total time required to max. 10…
CWL March 2020 season
Apologies for the late post, this took me a lot of time and I'm working double-triple time in this current Covid pandemic. Our clan was promoted to M3 the last season after doing well in C1. Our rushed accounts allowed u…
Day 520, maxed hound
Hound is another troop that grows pretty badly but I'm sure everyone is sick of the topic by now. 400hp is just one more shot of AD which is why they aren't used in TH12/13. It doesn't take a genius to find out why certa…
SinOfDusk Day 90 of TH13
Maxed! Finally, after 3 months grinding, mostly just waiting for defenses, I've maxed out TH13. I actually don't feel much stronger and I'm about as strong as my mini right now. Maxed out scattershots, RC and giga infern…
Day 517
Third day of CWL and our clan was #1! We actually just reached Masters 3 this season and yet we are crushing it. Will share how we did it in another post this week. Progress is marginal from day-to-day but at least thing…
Day 515, cost discounts
If you have not heard, there is a huge discount coming in the next update. However, there doesn't seem to be a discount in upgrade times which means the grind would be exactly the same except you'll have overflowing stor…
SinOfDusk Day 85 of TH13
Floating around in legends despite only 3-4 raids per day, not too hard to stay when so many weak people are able to get into legends. I finally started my last upgrade and now I only need to wait 5 days to max out TH13.…
Day 513, spending season bank loot
Need to boost my builders to be able to spend my loot asap. I actually used a second builder potion afte r Once I gained control of one of my builders, I hammered my most expensive upgrade. Booked another one of my expen…
SinOfDusk day 82 of TH13
Main account took slightly different rewards for clan games, though on hindsight taking the 100 gems might have been better for this account. Oh well, can't change that. I was able to use 5 builder potions, 2 from clan g…
Day 510, Feb 2019 Season bank
Used a BoB to skip another air defense. For obvious reason detailed below, this BoB comes from my season pass. Being able to skip all the timers for these long upgrades is really good Completed this easy bowitch event be…
SinOfDusk Day 80 of TH13
I'm still chugging along in legends, barely doing any raids just to stay in legends right now. I don't need loot anymore so I'm just chilling here. Hybrid miners are now much harder to 3 star after the mini balance updat…
SinOfDusk day 76 of TH13
This account is remaining in legends because I don't need much more loot to max out TH13. I only need about 2-3mil/day to keep my builders upgrading traps so I just need about 3-4 raids to keep them going. I still hate t…
Day 504
Hammered a tesla to skip the maximum 12.8 days. As I previously said in my Hidden Tesla post, they need a range boost to help make them stronger and TH13 teslas definitely need a dps buff to at least 140-150 to be a sign…
Day 501, dropping out of terrible legends
Dropping out of legends was a chore, I had to switch to a FWA base then deliberately did 0 stars on my attacks while sniping gold storages. After two long days, I managed to drop out of legends and now I can drop back to…
SinOfDusk day 68 of TH13
Same old, same old here. I'm constantly capped out on elixir and DE which I cannot spend because SC artificially limits our progress. Whenever SC is ready, they will release another 100 walls which I could've completed i…
Day 496, wizards need a rebalance
What TH level do you expect the above upgrade to be? Its actually a TH9 upgrade and you can see how full the bar is at TH9. The only reason I'm upgrading him right now is because I am using siege barracks fairly frequent…
Day 490, Feb 2020 CWL season
Did a hog upgrade so that I can use hog miners while pushing and in war. Unfortunately I still have lvl4 wizards and lvl1 baby which I found to be a great impediment in my raids, I think it might be better to not bring t…
Day 488, AD spam
Air defense growth is quite lackluster but that's the only long upgrade I have left besides WT which are lower leveled. The only thing that helps with TH13 defense is the scattershot but that does nothing to edrags. AD c…
SinOfDusk day 62 of TH13
Started my day good with a 4 hour research boost. Luckily I got all these for free because they cost the same as a hammer which would instantly complete the upgrade! A 4 hour boost merely skips 36 hours of an upgrade whi…
Day 487, is Titan league good?
I'm now in mid titans slowly climbing to Legends. Has Titans treated me kindly? Getting 3 stars here is ridiculously easy, though harder than in Masters. Heroes sometimes survive raids so that I can raid twice per login.…
Day 475
Wow, lvl17 archer towers are so amazingly bad. I don't understand why SC wants to have 2 levels of cannons and AT each and every single TH level. This makes these defenses really bloated, not only they have the greatest …
SinOfDusk Day 58 of TH13
I still can't get rid of my elixir and DE because the only way to spend it now is via my army. I am actually donating all witches to my clan's cwl cc but it seems like my DE cannot deplete. I hope that I can drain it off…
Day 473, low levels in high leagues
This is now one day after maxing heroes and I'm nearly reaching titans for the first time for this account. Honestly, I don't understand why people want to climb as a low level. There's no additional reward for climbing …
Day 472, heroes maxed!
TH12 guide updated! Please go and have a view below: TH12 upgrade priority guide Yet again, I have maxed my heroes on this account. This is the third time it has happened and I'm relieved. Now I can do whatever I like an…
SinOfDusk day 55 of TH13
Got the 25mil/25mil so I need to spend the gold. This amount of loot is now a little lacking compared to TH12, maybe we should allow higher TH levels to get more per season pass, that would encourage more rushing right? …
Day 471, Feb gold pass
And my first mistake this season: I got my season bank loot and immediately blew 280k into bowlers and bringing them to max. The problem here was that I didn't wait for the 10% discount which was actually achievable for …
Day 490, BK lvl69
TH11 guide has been updated, please do read it if you are interested. TH11 upgrade priority guide At this point of time, I changed my final hero upgrading strategy. I chose to keep BK awake and just book his final level …
SinOfDusk day 52 of TH13
Busy working on lab again on main account. I need to use my last book of spells here to complete my final spell upgrade. Used another book here to get my siege barracks to lvl3 because its my final troop left to upgrade.…
Day 486, spam lab upgrades
Used a hammer to max out yeti so that I have the choice to use them in CWL. I highly doubt any more of my upgrades would make crushing TH12 easier, its really sad that SC is so bad at balancing that maxed TH13 still need…
SinOfDusk Day 49 of TH13
Hammer used to skip the more expensive and longest upgrade I have which is a wizard tower. I am keeping a few WT and tesla upgrades which I will do after all other defenses are done. Doing that will allow me to use books…
Day 482, trailing behind
This account still has almost 6 months of upgrades to go before I'm maxed, but I'm almost at the same point as my main account with walls and heroes nearly maxed. I still have about 15 walls to go then I can do whatever …
SinOfDusk day 46 of TH13
Started pushing on this account and stop once I reach legends, I can probably just do 2-3 raids per/day to keep all my builders busy. Its funny to see people complaining about legends in the forums and everyone bashing t…
Day 480, Maxed Royal Champ!
Finally, after a lot of hard work and farming, I have farmed enough to max out RC. It takes 90 days to max her out normally and 72 days with gold pass discount. This picture was taken less than 50 days into TH13 so Howev…
Day 478, maxing infernos
Used a hammer to skip my most expensive upgrade. Inferno tower is probably the strongest upgrade in TH13 with nearly 15% increase in dps. However, it is still quite unnoticeable because most troops just shrug it off. Sca…
SinOfDusk day 42 of TH13
This is one of my longest upgrades which cost 17 days without discount, I plan to use a book here More magic items to follow: Used a rune here to upgrade another building after spending all my gold on an air defense. Its…
Day 475, RC lvl19
Bought a BoH because I want to use it today. Bought a hammer using the medals I won this month to upgrade loons to max. Currently almost all of my previously maxed TH12 troops and now nearly maxed TH13. I still have wiza…
SinOfDusk day 39 of TH13
With my main account, I was able to farm enough gold to fully utilize the book of building to skip a 13+ day upgrade. I only need another 2 months before I am maxed so I'm quite looking forward to that. Hopefully SC will…
Confused with new prices
Relocation Expert/Elixir Mixer/Golden Speed/Dark Star Now that I'm working in Australia and changed my location, the prices have been changed to Aus Dollars (AUD) which is generally 3x the exchange rate of Malaysian Ring…
Day 473, starting the BK grind
Now that I have all other heroes maxed or nearly done, its time to focus on my 4th strongest hero. SC is seriously trying to buff the BK because people are neglecting him because his 5 levels gain the most stats among al…
Day 470, maxed warden!
Boosted builders so that I can spend my overflowing gold. I have two builders completing their upgrade at the same time so I need to find a way to keep them busy again. This is when I'm really happy that I rushed because…
SinOfDusk week 5 of TH13
I've destroyed 40 scattershots so far and I still have no idea how to really deal with them. I just rage and freeze them so far and that's how most are destroyed. I guess its a troop issue, they will just tear through ho…
Day 469, Jan CWL
Managed to spend a book of building here by upgrading a scattershot. Book of building is much easier to use on this account because I have so many low level stuff which don't cost my entire gold storage. This is seriousl…
Day 468, lose some to gain more
Having cheap upgrades is good for one thing. Sometimes the season pass asks you to start multiple upgrades which can be pretty annoying for a maxer. (It is very annoying for my main account) But with this account, I can …
Day 466-467, being busy
I apologize for the long delay between posts, I have been extremely busy this past week settling down in my new workplace and the long orientation sessions. After this week, I should be able to settle down to a regular w…
Day 463, changing hero upgrade strategy
With enough DE to upgrade RC, I decided to gem her since I still needed to wait 3 days to spend my DE. Completed warden lvl46 Spent all my elixir and a book to upgrade my warden. Having him is pretty much essential for T…
SinOfDusk day 26-28 of TH13
Bought and used a hammer of building. Now that I have most of my heroes maxed, buying builder potions is not worth it. Attack log is attached later in the post. I farmed on average 30-40k DE per hour unboosted with just …
Day 460, elixir spending spree
After looking at the price, I felt that the upgrade is not worth it because I still haven't claimed the 10% discount. I actually spent 100 gems here to skip the wait and grind for the extra points. The only easy task I h…
SinOfDusk day 25 of TH13
Saw this offer from the trader and decided to buy it, it would save me around 200-300 gems this way. I gemmed by RC first because it would only cost 387 gems, using a BoH here would be dumb and a waste of gems. RC going …
Day 459, mistakes were made
First thing I did with my season bank loot was to spend it on AQ. I didn't get the 10% discount because I was busy on my main account, the curse of being a mini. With AQ maxed, I can now put my DE in RC and BK until they…
SinOfDusk day 24 of TH13
I boosted my builders for 3 hours, skipping 27 hours of time so that I have builders for this day - season bank payout. I originally wanted to save up all my resources to be used after the season bank payout, but then I …
Day 458, season bank prep
Tiny is always a few days behind my main account as I cannot really spend too much time on this account. This means that these entries always feel like deja vu to write and read. After maxing wb, I didn't have enough eli…
SinOfDusk day 23 of TH13
RC going to lvl14 right before the season bank payout. I might need to gem her a few times in the beginning of the season after I spend the bank on BK. Once she reaches lvl15, her time cost will justify using books then …
Day 457, RC is quite amazing
Boosted builders today since I have a full DE tank and a long time before my RC completes. Instead of upgrading RC again, I chose to spend my DE to upgrade AQ. I did this because it is more worth it to skip a 5.6 day wai…
SinOfDusk day 22 of TH13
Because of my excess book of everything, I need to use it on my lab. I can only skip 8 days here but it's better than wasting a book. With that, I can claim my next book from the season pass and I plan to skip another he…
Day 456, too many BOH
Warden's growth is really bad, I wonder why I still want to upgrade him. He gains nothing for his life aura which is his strongest ability and only 1.5% dps and 1% hp per level. This means that he gains <20% stats over 1…
Last Deal of 2019
Builder's delight/Zero to Hero It should be very clear which of the above is the good one. 2 books for $20 or 2 books for $3, no brainer really. The first pack isn't that great because you're paying quite a bit for the r…
SinOfDusk day 20 of TH13
Barch is simply amazing for TH13, I never seen my loot go up so quickly with miners and sometimes my elixir even went backwards with miners. People keep praising and worshipping miners, but I just can't make it work at T…
Day 454, RC halfway done?
Now that my RC is lvl10 and upgrading to lvl11, can I consider her to be halfway done? Hell no, lvl11-20 costs 4 times more than lvl1-10 so I wouldn't consider myself halfway done. Yet many low levels seem to think that …
SinOfDusk day 19 of TH13
Warden going to lvl45 now. I'm only one month away from maxed warden, if I don't use gems. However, I will definitely start using gems from this week onward so I expect to max him out around new year time. It will only t…
Day 452, being a filthy p2w
Bought the $10 pack on this account as well. Sc's book timing cannot be more perfect than this. I got a free book from the trader and now I have a second book for the season bank next week. I upgraded the eagle because I…
SinOfDusk day 17 of TH13
This is an amazing Xmas day offer and I immediately claimed all 3 rewards. I heard that the Boxing day offer was the exact same, but I was in a flight during that time so I missed out on that :( Anyway, this book of buil…
Day 451, TH13 balancing ideas
Since RC doesn't need much DE, my overzealous DE farming has led to a full DE storage so I decided to upgrade Then I used a book of heroes like a casual I am so that I can keep using QW miners. I think I will start upgra…
SinOfDusk day 16 of TH13
This is great offer, I got a builder potion plus 40 gems. There are too many training potions this season and I cannot stand using more than 2 training potions per day so I'm selling most of these free training potions. …
Day 450, my favorite event
Kicked off the day with a lvl10 RC upgrade. I am thinking whether or not to use her and try her out for a few raids when she wakes up in 4 days time. Getting to try out lvl10 RC would be fun and it would serve as a mini …
ClashMas Gem bundle analysis
There are far less books in these Xmas packs but they aren't actually all bad. These remind me of the very first value pack sold in the game which only had bonus resources + the usual gems. Since those days, it was quite…
SinOfDusk day 15 of TH13
I'm still keeping up with the intense DE regimen since the beginning of TH13 and now that RC has become laughably cheap, my DE is constantly overflowing now. With only 2 dark heroes, I only need to farm 80k DE/day to kee…
SinOfDusk 2nd week of TH13
Except for the first day, this current event has been pretty underwhelming which explains a lot of complaints in reddit. Well, I can't really complain about free gems. I have claimed all the rewards and have used them fo…
SinOfDusk day 13 of TH13
Free hero potion again. Its likely we're only getting 2-3 good free magic items. I just hope that the Xmas pack is good with tons of books/builder potions. Attack log: Lots of DE which is great for my BK/RC progress. But…
Day 447, healers upgrading
Wow, I didn't notice how bad the healer upgrade is. It only buffs hero walks which SC seems to be pushing right now. Not only did healer lvl5 got nerfed from 80 to 72, lvl6 healers got nothing as well with only a buff to…
SinOfDusk day 12 of TH13
Farmed enough DE to naturally upgrade BK lvl67. I'm only 4 weeks away from maxing him. I'll only need to complete the lvl69 upgrade then I intend to spend a book or just gem the final level. After he's lvl70, he can star…
SinOfDusk day 11 of TH13
SC has given us 50 gems for today's free magic item. Not bad, I would gladly take those gems and skip a few hours of my upgrades. Its not like they're giving us training potions, right? Right?? Completed these two events…
Day 445, using the free BoH
Just like my main account, I am using my free book on AQ. I also have an extra book so I need to use it before I can claim my free book. Some low levels are complaining that they have maxed their heroes and cannot use th…
SinOfDusk day 10 of TH13
Gemmed lvl68 AQ. Two levels from maxed is the same as maxed for me. Upgraded to lvl69 and used a book here to complete the upgrade. After 5 levels of AQ, she has gained 8% in both hp and dps, while gaining about 5% power…
Day 444, multiple lab upgrades
Seems like the rumours are false, my lab building completed along with the troop inside. You just need to visit someone else's base or restart the game. That's great, I don't need to spend gems or wait for this lava houn…
SinOfDusk Day 9 of TH13
After finishing my DE storage 2 days ago, I can now store much more DE between upgrades which makes subsequent upgrades easier. This is why I started my DE storage as a first priority upgrade, because it makes hero upgra…
SinOfDusk first week of TH13
Lab upgrade completed early in my 7th day of TH13. Lab would normally cost 10 days but it became 7 days because I spammed builder potions during my first week. 2 builders came free at the same time, they were upgrading t…
Day 441+442, RC lvl7
This account has been using less gems than main because I'm not farming so much here. Despite that, I easily filled up my DE storage. After spending my gold and elixir on walls, I spent half my DE tank upgrading RC to lv…
SinOfDusk Day 6 of TH13
Got a book of heroes from the trader and I bought it. I plan to use it later today. RC completing in an hour but I have 2 builders coming free tomorrow. I plan to upgrade the BK in 24 hours and that will require me to fa…
SinOfDusk Day 5 of TH13
Just spent all my DE yesterday and had to spend the entire day farming DE today. After a little bit of grinding and one training potion, I managed to farm enough DE for AQ using miners. My attack logs are found in anothe…
Day 440, RC lvl5
Its much easier farming on this account because I am not really focusing much on DE. I am just casually farming for RC and upgrade other stuff in the mean time. My main on the other hand, is trying to farm DE as fast as …
SinOfDusk Day 4 of TH13
Using builder potions to skip 18 hours of heroes. I only have 2 heroes upgrading right now so it is not fully efficient to use them now. I need to skip a few hours of builders and this is more worth it than spamming hamm…
Day 438, RC lvl3
Our clan somehow stayed in Crystal 1 with in one win over 7 wars. We tied with the #7 clan and somehow got more % and managed to stay in C1. Fortunately, being in C1 6th place is far better than being 1st place in C2. We…
SinOfDusk Day 3 of TH13
Only 3 pictures today because there was only one upgrade done today. The first week of TH13 is very straightforward because there are 5 week-long upgrades while only one short upgrade sequence. Basically, TH13 is: RC > R…
Farming in TH13
Honestly, farming TH13 is not much worse than TH12. I'll say its on average only 20% worse because there's no dead TH13 yet. The loot change is huge though, allowing me to snipe large amounts of loot from semi/fully-expo…
SinOfDusk Day 2 of TH13
Started my day with a war attack, here's how it went: I even used hero and power potions to stack the deck in my favor. No way I'm going to fail on a basic TH12 base, right? Ugh, don't know where I failed. This base is a…
PSA: TH13 value pack is a scam
This will include an analysis of the winter holiday pack as well. (Hint: only one pack is good) The left most pack is a complete sham, no doubt about it. You can get 6 free hero upgrades and 6 free building upgrades by p…
Day 436, first day of TH13
Seems like deja vu, tracing the footsteps of my main account. I only had ONE(!!) builder free for TH13 initially so I had to do the most important upgrade first. I placed my royal champion and upgraded her to lvl2. Cance…
SinOfDusk Day 1 of TH13
I was very unfortunate that TH13 arrived during my doctor's appointment and I couldn't jump straight into it. I also didn't check reddit or anything so I didn't know the update dropped until 1 hour afterwards! Nonetheles…
Day 435, one day before TH13
Little did my young mind know, I would need to jump to TH13 in about 24 hours from taking this picture. I felt reasonably prepared as anyone for the update given that I know the prices and all the stat changes for TH13. …
Day 432, pre-TH13 planning
I did two pretty risky upgrades today but I didn't want to waste time on my builder and lab. Right now, we still don't know when TH13 will be released and for the purposes of TH13, I want all 6 builders and my lab availa…
Day 429, losing some to gain more
Sometimes in chess and in life, you need to give up something to get something else. Here, I sacrifice 3.5mil gold to save some time on my wizard tower. Upgrade cancelled. Now I start my intended upgrade which is a wizar…
TH13: Yeti
The new TH12/13 troop has been announce and it is the Yeti: https://forum.supercell.com/showthread.php/1873087-The-Frost-and-the-Furry-ous-Introducing-the-Yeti Below is some gameplay by itzu. They can be used like pekkas…
Day 428, santa king
Finally completed this event with lvl1 valks. I just used my regular bowitch army and bringing 2 valks + cc maxed valks to complete the event. I forgotten to take a picture of my attack logs and the event has finished so…
Day 427, dragons maxed
I just did a recount and realised that I only have 2 books of fighting. If I used both books on dragons, I would not have one spare book for TH13. I thought for a while (5 minutes), then decided to use both books anyway …
TH13: Siege barracks
The second thing about TH13 has been announced and it is the siege barracks. Here's the official announcement: https://forum.supercell.com/showthread.php/1872587-It-Came-From-the-Skies%21-New-Siege-Machine-Siege-Barracks…
Day 424, builder oopsie
With the winter jam event is in full swing, everyone is enjoying their half priced walls, except me of course. I'm struggling with nothing to do because my loot is constantly full. I'm seriously looking forward to TH13 s…
Day 423, winter jam event
Half gold cost for all upgrades. Many people who were lazy are now farming walls at double speed because of the event, and as usual, the maxed players can only watch. I wonder why low levels keep complaining that they do…
Black Friday is pretty trash...
Happy Black Friday! Tried to buy some stuff online but no one was giving any discounts, very sad indeed. But our main focus here are the bundles we are getting in CoC which are similarly trash You're essentially buying r…
Day 421
Elixir slightly drained now because I started a dragon upgrade, but otherwise gold and DE are both full. Farming is so easy these days, its a wonder how people can say "I can keep all builders busy" and think its an acco…
Day 420, did I waste my time with defenses?
Full elixir right now and I need to fill up my season bank. Luckily I looked through the season bank of my accounts and I found that I only had 6mil elixir in my bank for this season. This was primarily because my elixir…
Cyber Special pack
2 new packs suddenly appeared this morning for me for a "cyber special". Not sure what it is celebrating since cyber weekend is next week, right? I would skip both if you are not a frequent spender or tight on money. Bot…
Day 417, TH13 speculation
Spent a hammer here to max out another wizard tower. This will be the final hammer I use before TH13 drops. I will buy builder potions instead in TH13 to max out heroes faster. I hope they don't release too many hero lev…
Day 414, ice queen skin
Ice queen skin is really nice and is probably my favorite AQ skin as of now. Not only for the appearance but also for the ice effect when you use her ability. I wonder how do players play this game without the season pas…
TinySin First Year Progress

Day 409, poison spell maxed
Poison spell to lvl5 Then I collected DE from my treasury and season challenges to start the next upgrade. Used my second book from my season challenge rewards to get poison to max immediately. Dragon going to lvl2 now. …
Day 408
Started the day by completing the unbuild it achievement and getting 50 gems. People somehow like to say I'm a filthy gemmer but don't bother to look through my journals to see how many gems I actually buy. Hint: if I ha…
Nov 2019 CWL season
Did really well this season unlike the last. I targeted my mirror on every battle instead of hitting up on #2 which probably made a difference. My clan was really weak this season compared to normal but we pulled through…
Day 406, poor builder planning
Started 3 upgrades today so my gold was drained completely. With my busy schedule, it is actually really difficult to start builders on time so now I have two cannons starting and completing around the same time which is…
Day 400, friend in need
Finally donated enough troops to my main account that I can now claim 250 more gems. These gems are going to be really helpful when the new TH comes out. Now I need to donate enough spells to claim that juicy gem reward …
Day 398, Sept season challenges
I like this new interface and the QOL update changes to the season pass. The ice queen looks good too, I might change my AQ's permanent skin to this. With all the expensive upgrades I did previously, I now need to wait a…
Day 396, Oct clan game rewards
Our clan barely scraped 50k points for this clan games with me maxing out my points across my accounts. If you are a TH9 and above, and interested to join my clan, you are more than welcome. I'll try to be online to acce…
Day 394, bad halloween pack
Halloween packs are pretty bad this year. I was working a lot during this period so I did not cover these packs and advised you guys not to buy these. The only possible good deal was the $10 pack with 2 books and a decor…
Day 393
Using my weekly hammer of building to skip another 14 day upgrade. Wasn't able to start my builders on time because of my work schedule. I never open my game during work and I rarely get lunch/dinner breaks to open the g…
Day 391, weekly update
Dropped back down to crystal to spam royal ghosts. And this is how I was farming the last week with my 110 hour per week work schedule. I'm scared now that they are going away soon. It will be almost impossible for me to…
Day 387, hogs to lvl9
SC added a second level to hogs for TH12 in one of the past updates which made them quite strong. Before the update, they were abysmal and not used at all. If SC thought that they were too weak, they should just buff the…
Day 385
Completed the royal ghost event within a day by removing my witches from bowitch and some bowlers to bring more ghosts. But the army was really weak so I won't bother to share it to you guys. Research potions are only gr…
Day 384, Halloween event and royal ghosts
I meant to write this last week but I was working like a mad man. It was basically work > sleep > work > sleep for 6 straight days. By now, this post is way too late so just have fun reading it. I got a halloween obstacl…
Day 382, hammer use
I forgotten to close my gps before taking a picture of my base. Was stuck in a jam so using my phone wasn't too dangerous. Bought a hammer to upgrade an air defense to max. This is my first maxed air defense and its grow…
Day 379, weekly update
Changing my schedule slightly now that my base is matured and daily posts will get boring. I am currently working in an extremely busy hospital and fortunately I get one day off per week (unless a disaster happens). I ca…
Oct CWL season
Day 379 Did quite poorly this season as my enemies were quite strong and I chose to attack maxed TH12 instead of hitting my mirror. Despite that, I managed to get 16 stars in this CWL with 2 triples. I hit lower (my mirr…
Day 374, book of everything
I'm using a book of everything whenever I have time now to skip days. If I have a good stretch of maybe 1 day before the next builder comes free, I will spend a book. I still have one more book from the previous value pa…
Day 373, I hate the builder base
It is so frustrating to play the builder base because of all these 100% draws. The only way I can win is to hope that my enemy makes a mistake and gives me the win. Sometimes when I screw up and didn't get the 100%, my e…
Day 372, hammer of building
Spent 120 medals and skipped 14 days of my inferno tower upgrade. This is my second maxed inferno and my final one is going to lvl5 now. I plan to farm a little more afterwards and use my book of everything to skip the f…
Day 370, Oct season pass (Skeleton BK)
Season ending in an hour, I elected to keep one builder free so that I can immediately spend the season bank loot. All the rewards obtained and I only have 15k DE which I cannot claim. Oh well, DE is useless to me anyway…
Day 368, end of Sept events
Cannon upgrades are so quick, I'm upgrading a different cannon every day. These TH9 upgrades are so cheap, even TH10 cannons are stupidly cheap. I remember that TH8 cannons would cost 1.6mil, TH9 cannons would cost 3.2mi…
Day 367, Sept clan game rewards
Working on my WT to make them lvl10 before upgrading the others to lvl9. Lvl10 gains a lot of stats and are more worthwhile than the lvl9 upgrade. Air defenses are also done for now, they are lvl9 and I plan to upgrade l…
One-year Anniversary
I actually have a montage of pictures which forms a 2 minute video on the progress of my base in the past year, but somehow can't get it uploaded to Wordpress. So at the mean time, I written the how to rush to TH12 guide…
Resource Relief/Learn and Live/Fighting Spirit/Tower of Power
This pack seems to recur every time the season pass is about to expire. Most probably for players to instantly spend their season bank loot, for a price of course. Tl;dr: only resource relief is terrible. Tower of power …
Day 364
After the long discussion I wrote yesterday, I bought a builder potion. I needed it otherwise my builder would complete at 2am, not a good time. Its so hard to coordinate builder times so that they complete during the da…
Day 361, CWL medal math
I figured to speed up my progression to maxed TH12 by spending some of my medals. I previously spent 500 medals or so to buy 30 builder potions before they were nerfed. Now that builder potions are not so worth it, its t…
Day 359, both bases showcase
Builder base after getting OTTO. I'm feeling a little lost here, not sure what to upgrade. I know I will spend my elixir on super pekka until it is maxed but gold is the issue here. It seems like dropships are becoming l…
Empower hour/Discovery recovery/Dark knowledge/Behold the gold
There is one good pack among these horrendously bad ones. Sorry for posting this late again. Tl;dr: only empower hour is good, the rest are pure garbage Empower hour: one book of fighting for $2? Its really good given th…
Day 358, OTTO unlocked!
Finally, after spending about 100 gems to skip the timer, I have completed him. I couldn't get him to lvl4 earlier because gearing up was the last thing I did. If not for the OTTO, I wouldn't have bothered doing any gear…
Day 357, BM lvl30
I woke up late, so I opted to use a rune of gold instead. That's about 50 gems for 10.4mil loot? Its an ok trade. If I didn't use the rune now, I would have sold it for 50 gems. The gems are actually useless for me now, …
Day 356, multi-mortar gear up
Buying a book of building for 925 gems. I usually won't buy this because it is not the best place to spend gems. However, since this would allow me to complete the OTTO sooner. Given that the 5th builder costs 2000 gems,…
Day 352, progression
Spent some gold again to work on defenses, namely my wizard towers. They are halfway done with TH10 level which is surprisingly short. SC has made it such that TH10 upgrades don't cost more than 6 days which is a huge di…
Day 351, Sept 2019 Balancing Update
I am about a week late into this one but I think it is important to test out the changes and see how do people respond and react before giving my opinion on things. The first most important change is the nerf to hog ride…
Day 350, gearing up archer tower
This is my first of 3 gear ups and I'm only doing it because of the OTTO. Honestly none of these gear ups are worth it and often they are weaker than standard towers. If only they balanced the AT, double cannon and multi…
Day 348, hogs to lvl4
Sigh, loot is full again despite just upgraded some stuff. I usually store a ton of clan war and daily star bonus loot and collect it whenever I do a few major upgrades. This allows me to raid <4 times a day and still ke…
Day 347, upgrading multi mortar
I'm currently upgrading my multi mortar in preparation of my mortar gear up. It needs to be lvl8 for this and my regular mortar in my home base has to be lvl8 as well so I'm upgrading both. According to this, I will need…
Day 345, BM to lvl25
Managed to farm enough to upgrade BM to lvl25, now I just need to farm enough for the next 3 levels before I can use runes and books to complete him. Also, I don't quite like this design and my other account's bases aren…
Day 343, misconceptions of rushing
One of my very first posts in this blog was " Misconceptions of Rushing ". Looking at the post today, it is still very relevant and I can in fact lengthen the list and make even better arguments for rushing while dispell…
Day 341, CWL ranters
The beginning of the month is always the best for me because I can read and enjoy the tears of players who do not understand the CWL system. The system rewards progression much more than skill so being a skillful TH9 is …
Day 339, prepping for season bank
Unlocked the super pekka in the builder base, now I can spend some elixir to max him out. He takes an exorbitant amount of elixir to max but will be eventually worth it. I don't like it in the builder base where troops s…
Day 338, failed clan games
Had a small break from upgrading my BM because I want to unlock super pekkas on this account. I never bothered to upgrade my barracks because I was lazy. Drop ship minions, while being a really good army, does fall flat …
Day 337, pekkas to lvl5
I am halfway done with my lvl12 archer towers which mean they would be officially "TH10 level". Wizard towers are nearly TH9 level now, I need another 4 levels on them before they are maxed. Looking through my tracker, i…
Day 336, attack logs from both bases
Attacking in the builder base can be really frustrating at times, at least this day isn't bad at all. I got my 3 wins within 5 attacks which is great. Sometimes you hit losing streaks in the builder base which just makes…
11th Month, builder base showcase
Nothing much going on in the main base today. I'm still updating my guides, just done with TH11 and now going to finish TH12 guides before moving on builder base guides. 3 upgrades completing in 12 hours but I already ha…
Day 333, general planning
This was what my rewards screen looked like just 6 days before the end of the season. I still had a ton of things unused. In the end, I just sold my power potion, training potions and hero potion for 70 gems. Runes were …
Day 332, reminder: last day of season pass
Making an earlier post than usual just to remind everyone to clear out all your season pass rewards as they will expire in a few hours. Not much you can min/max right now as my reminder was late. I will make a post earli…
Day 331, defense looks stronger
My defenses do look much nicer now right? Cannons and mortars still underleveled but everything else is TH9/10 already. Archer towers are really fast because it only takes 1-2 days to upgrade to TH9-10 level. Hopefully t…
Day 328, ice golem maxed
Edit: going to travel for the next few days, next daily journal will be 3 days later Ice golem lvl3 upgrade is complete. Time to start level 4 Could've farmed 90k for the next ice golem level but that would've meant an i…
Day 326, biding
I'm currently just upgrading defenses and there really isn't much to show in my base. After I catch up my base to the current day's progress, I will slow down on daily journal updates since there isn't much left to show.…
Day 325, maxed heroes!
Upgrade to level 65? Yes! Ability upgrade seems good, but I can never feel this. Maybe they should allow lvl70 hero to use ability twice, that should make TH13 much stronger. Saved a book for this. People like to waste h…
Day 323, defending while rushed
I have been upgrading 4 defenses all the time for a while and now I remember that maxers follow the same route most of the time as well. This may be another reason why maxers don't defend at all, because they have 4-5 de…
Day 322, builder potions are still great
Been enjoying the 17 free builder potions this month. I always feel builder potions to be more rewarding than hammer of buildings despite the latter being more efficient after the nerf. Even though you earned the hammers…
Day 320, hog event
This is the only picture of my base for today. Did a few upgrades here including an archer tower and AD. If you notice, these buildings are slowly going to maxed TH8/9 levels. These upgrades are now ridiculous because th…
Aug 2019 CWL season
7 wars: Total: 18 stars obtained, 13 stars conceded (+5 stars) Won 3, lost 4 I got a 1 star this time because I used electro on an anti-electro base. Could've gotten 19-20 stars if I used a power potion and properly atta…
Day 319, double DE upgrades
Resources overflowing again and I need some DE for BK. Unfortunately this means that I will need to waste all gold and elixir to farm some DE. This is an unfortunate side effect of maxing walls but I rather have this tha…
Day 317, do single infernos need a buff?
Spent quite a bit of gold to upgrade air defenses and infernos today. I plan to max out infernos now because it only requires a few levels. Current plan is to bring all 3 infernos to lvl6. Unfortunately infernos really d…
Day 316, hammer of fighting
I bought one these thinking that I would use it for ice golem lvl5. But then I saw that I have 2 book of fighting waiting to be used. This will probably sit in my inventory until I max out my pekkas. At least it will not…
Day 315, one CWL screenshot
Only remembered to take a shot of me destroying an enemy base. This gave me the idea to record all my attacks for the next season. So that you guys can see my hits and my misses. This season I was able to nab 18 out of 2…
Day 313, lab work
Well, got a free research potion from an event so I'm using it. This is used to clear out my builder potion inventory And now, I got 5 more. This season pass is giving 17 free builder potions, which is equivalent to 6.5 …
Day 312, 4d chess
Played some 4d chess here. Firstly, I needed some season challenge points but one of the tasks, collect 1.5mil from gold storage cannot be completed by me because my storage is over the limit. However, if I started an ex…
Day 311, 7th anniversary pack
The 7th Anniversary pack was a complete joke. I didn't cover it because it was obviously horrendous and ridiculously priced. I was holding out for a pack containing 2-3 book of heroes but this sort of value? No way. For …
Day 310b, Champs!
Split my post because it was getting really long First time reaching champs on this account and I have only started 10 months ago. I could've done this achievement about 3 months ago but I was lazy. I don't get why peopl…
Day 310a, start of Aug season
Yay, a ton of loot without anyway to spend it. In the past, I would upgrade 10 walls using this loot but now obviously I can't do that anymore. Now I'm left with 37/37mil with nowhere to spend it. I spent about a week wi…
Day 308+309, BK 60
This value pack was offered on 30th July right before the 7th Anniversary event started. These packs are really bad because there were very few magic items. I thought that the anniversary pack would be much better so I d…
Day 306, managing builders
Bought a builder potion here because some builders are ending while I sleep. I don't like having builders completing at 12 midnight and they would be sleeping until 5-6am. I don't like sleeping builders, especially if th…
10 months!
Day 305 10 months since starting the game, I have maxed my walls and nearly maxed my heroes. With 2-3 maxed war armies, I'm doing very well in CWL and regular wars. Imagine if I maxed out each TH level, I would barely be…
Day 301, builder management and freeze spell
Somehow skipped day 300, but my day count isn't very accurate anyway. 26th Sept 2019 is the anniversary of this account so let's see how accurate my day count is by then. Currently capped gold while waiting for defenses …
Day 299, TH12 defense logs
People in reddit are starting to advise "upgrade your TH" when people ask the question. This is actually a slow, good change despite lots of people being misinformed and still giving bad advice to max. One of the dumb th…
Day 296, random thoughts
Prepared an electro army before I sleep for war attack early in the morning. This is what you should do for war so that you don't jeopardize your farming time during the day. For regular wars, since there are two attacks…
Day 295, season pass done
Picture taken: 17th July. I completed the season pass challenges in about half a month. It honestly wasn't very hard and I think most players can finish it around the same timeframe as well. Some people have proposed tha…
Day 294, the futility of defense
With maxed walls and cheap defenses, the only grind is farming 240k DE/week for BK (or 196k in 5.6 days). This is about 35k DE/day which isn't too hard really when I target at least 5k DE/raid. Plus 8k from drills and I …
Day 293, book of building
Awesome value for a book of building here, skipping a full 2 week upgrade. If I did not rush, I would be wasting a book here on a 6 day upgrade, essentially throwing away 8 days of upgrade time. This is why I am upgradin…
Day 291+292, maxed walls
Last wall being upgraded. Today, I max my walls You know, someone with a picture like this and TH9 defenses got some burn in reddit. I wonder what will happen if I post this in reddit. We'll know later today. I just star…
Day 289+290, two days in one
Verdict: really poor packs, don't bother. You're paying a premium for things that should be cheap. Fight night is the only useful pack here but at USD$2, you can almost buy a season pass which will be far more worthwhile…
Day 288, the hypocrisy of maxers
Just a brief look at my base before I go on to the main topic BK was upgrading throughout the entire CWL and despite that I was able to 3 star all enemy bases. My offense was just way too strong compared to my competitor…
July 2019 CWL Season
Just want to show my CWL progress this season. Me and my team did really well this season. In total, I perfected this season with 21 stars. Most of my enemies were maxed TH11/low TH12. Being offensively strong here is re…
Day 287, upgrading troops in lab
Witches lvl4 completed in lab, proceeded to upgrade her to lvl5. If you noticed, I farmed 180k for BK 2 days ago and today I have 160k ready for maxed witches. Decent farming there after coming back from vacation (and a …
Day 284, multiple books used
Used a book of building here to skip 14 days on this tesla upgrade. I will leave a bunch of these teslas and xbows at TH11 level (lvl9 and lvl5 respectively) to efficiently use books on. I will plan accordingly once all …
Day 283, time skipped 4 days
Went to Jogya and forgotten to take any pics of my base. I also didn't play too much while traveling which worked great for me since I have 240k DE for BK ready. Keeping builders busy is one of the easiest things in this…
Day 279, maxed TH11 walls
With maxed warden, farming just became a lot more fun. No replays right now and unfortunately no time to record any replays. Barch guide that I promised still having no videos :( I'll try to work on it the coming weeks s…
Day 278, June season bank reward
The reason why I bought the books yesterday is to spend them here. I'm getting 25mil/25mil/240k loot and I'm looking forward to spend them all. I managed to start warden right before the season pass expired, so he only n…
Day 277, back from a long break
Wrote most of this last week but didn't publish it before I went for a long break. Now I'm back from the break and will try to post twice per day Pictures from: 30th June 2019 Not sure why I took this screenshot, likely …
Day 275
Just another picture here, still upgrading a few teslas here until they are all lvl9/10. My wizard towers are extremely weak but most of my defenses are electro loon which I think I should prepare more for, especially fo…
9 months!
Day 273 Wow, can't believe and I'm 9 months in this picture already. My walls were almost maxed already. I also have maxed AQ and almost done with warden. I know I would still get crucified by reddit because of my defens…
Day 272, always be tesla-ing
I have 3 teslas upgrading right now as I slowly bring them to max level. I will most probably only upgrade them to lvl9 (TH11) then use books to bring them to lvl10. This way, I can keep using books My teslas are upgradi…
Day 271, maxing rage spell
Rage spell lvl5 completed. I previously said that rage spells are quite worthless to upgrade, with each upgrade being a mere 3% increase. I'm just upgrading it now because that small increase might one day help in war. T…
Day 269, book of building as a rusher
Afterwards, I think I will only make base progress posts every week while writing guides and opinion pieces on other days. My base progress is quite boring now so people would not be so interested to read them anymore. F…
Day 268, troop balancing
Spent a ton of gems to complete AQ Oh wow, I didn't knew that I also maxed AQ within 4 days on this account. I'm not sure how I farmed the loot but I did. Given this picture, I can see that I used a rune of DE to maximis…
Day 266, 20 hero levels
Since I was focusing so much on main account, I didn't take any picture of my base, just a look at which magic items I used. Instead of combining with the pictures of tomorrow, I will put a discussion based on something …
Day 265, June 2019 update
This photo was taken on 18th June when the June update released. BH9 and extra hero levels were released, which I grind fairly hard for. Quite happy with my lvl65 AQ and lvl40 warden which I have at present day. Overall …
Day 264, weight of giga tesla
Read this post in the forum and inspired to give my comment here https://forum.supercell.com/showthread.php/1831216-Why-a-rushed-TH12-s-heavier-than-Max-TH11-s This is imo, one of the most egregious things in the balance…
Day 263, BK maxed (for TH11)
A lot of people will make some sort of celebration in reddit saying "heroes are maxed"/"AQ is maxed" and what not. Then when you click in, you see that they are only lvl40 or lvl50 proclaiming "maxed". I don't really kno…
Day 262, elixir for walls need an overhaul
Didn't write a post yesterday because I didn't prepare one before going for vacation. Just went to Indonesia twice in the last 3 months and now my ads feed are all Indonesian, pretty annoying. This picture above is typic…
Day 261
Another 5 hours of boost today. I got about 21 builder potions the other day so I want to try and spend as many as possible before the update drops. This picture was taken on 13th June which was before the update. I know…
Day 260, another 5 hours of boost
Using some builder potions from yesterday's CWL rewards. I use them in blocks of 5 so that I can spread out my farming and builders. This way, I only need to farm a few raids per day instead of being glued to my screen. …
June 2019 CWL results
Day 258 This final picture was taken before the war ended. I think we lost this war but I'm not too sure. Yup, you're seeing it right. I managed to score a perfect CWL season this month. After discussing with my clan, th…
Day 256, #resourcler
Bought book of heroes in preparation of lvl65 AQ and warden. I'm going to need it really soon since the update will drop in about 2 weeks time. Since I don't have a picture of my base of this day, I elected to discuss th…
Day 255
I have 100 medals remaining and that means only 6 builder potions left :( Along with the 5 currently in my inventory, I can only boost 11*45 = 495 hours. Its still 20 days of progress that I can skip but I'm going to be …
Day 254, keep boosting builders
First thing in the morning and I boost my builders for 5 hours again. This amount of progress is crazy, giving almost 10 days of progress in 5 hours. I'm miss this after my medals are exhausted and the nerf has hit. Curr…
Day 253, spamming builder potions
This picture was taken after they announced that builder potions would be nerfed, so I planned to spend all my medals on builder potions before the update dropped. Nobody knew when the update would drop so I just bought …
Day 252
Overflowing DE is painful. Nothing really to show here, just another day of upgrading. Actually nothing changed since yesterday. I chose to upgrade xbows because their growth is actually really good, from 50 dps at lvl1 …
Day 251, TH12 crows
The title of this post is for the google search algorithm. Below is a CoC link which will copy this base. Please do use this base if you like it, trust me, it really defends well. https://link.clashofclans.com/en?action=…
Day 249, builder potions are still worth it
Upgraded bat spell in the lab because I need to keep the remaining DE for BK. Not a good idea to have hero and lab completing at the same time if you want to upgrade dark troops. There are almost no elixir stuff for me t…
Day 248, don't upgrade both dark barracks at the same time
As you can see, I have both dark barracks upgrading at the same time because I wanted to finish my elixir buildings quickly. Normally, it is a sound idea because I won't use any of these troops for farming or war. Howeve…
June 2019 update, day 3
I stayed up till 1.30am one night just because I grew addicted to single player. Since loot isn't that good from 8pm to 3am, I elected to do single player instead so that I could continue playing and it lead me down a de…
Day 246, May clan game rewards
Just realised that my base is now 8 months old. With 43/60/30 heroes at 8 months, I think I've done pretty good progress. Working on teslas now Someone asked me why is my current base not upgrading teslas. This is becaus…
Day 244, two levels of BK
With a low level BK like this, I can upgrade BK twice easily with full DE storage. 240k storage and the next level costs 138.4k Collect DE from the gold pass and my treasury storage. Used a book and I could upgrade BK ag…
June 2019 update, day 2
I cheated. Bought and used a hammer of heroes because builder potions would be useless after I maxed my AQ. Using builder potions to speed up mortars doesn't seem too worth it so I'm basically using builder potions to sp…
Day 242, legendary whiners
While reddit is talking about research potions, we have gems in the forums whining about legends. The entire system was explained by the videos, FAQ etc yet people were caught off guard and were unable to drop out of leg…
June 2019 update, day 1
Time to stretch my farming muscles again and max my heroes. How fast would it take to get 65/65/40 heroes, I wonder? No joke, this post was delayed because I spent my entire day farming. (And no joke that SC had to force…
Day 239, legend league rework
Bowlers will be max tomorrow, not sure what I upgraded next. Probably witches or bat spell Just upgraded BK today, going to lvl41 now. Workshop going to lvl3 now, so I was wrong yesterday. DE is so abundant that I can up…
Day 236, thoughts on 6th builder
All 5 builders busy and I have no real place to put my farmed loot. Looking at my current base now and this picture (almost 1 month ago), I realised that I upgraded a shit ton of walls. This is because I farm loot way fa…
Day 235, thoughts on BH9
Nothing much here on my base, just finishing my last few gold mines. DE tank is half capacity and BK is nowhere near done, farming is easier than ever right now. It might get tougher after the update for a while but usua…
Day 234, BK to lvl40
If I were a TH10, I would say that my BK is nearly maxed, not knowing that I'm less than halfway done. He's going to lvl39 in this pic and I used a book of heroes here I don't understand most people in reddit and the for…
Day 232, thoughts on balance changes
Woohoo! Finally done with my thesis and I can finally write blog posts. The last 168 hours have been crazy and I have barely gotten 15 hours of sleep. Not much progress in my base at this time. After maxing AQ and warden…
Day 231, thoughts on research potion
Upgrading all my gold storages now, I need the 12mil storage to upgrade giga tesla to max which is probably the single biggest defense upgrade in TH12. Unfortunately upgrading eagle is only decreasing its utility because…
Day 229, 2 lab upgrades
Finally able to spend my DE, BK is currently upgrading right now. Even better is the news that there are extra hero levels coming soon. The extra 5 levels of heroes will hopefully increase the gap between TH11 and TH12. …
Day 228, attack/defense logs
Wall progress going ok right now. With the 20% discount and free 50mil per season, it is now pretty easy to do a ton of walls. I'm very confident that I can max walls in the next few months. I'm only now upgrading my gol…
Day 227, no pictures
I only have 3 pictures of today, one showing me using book of building on barracks. Besides any 14 day upgrades, book of buildings are best spent on barracks upgrades. If your barracks are still low leveled (<11), then y…
CWL showcase - May 2019
This is to showcase how TinySin did in CWL last month. 7 pictures of my base showing how many stars I dealt and how many I conceded: Conceded only 17 stars despite having crap defenses, you guys should know how my defens…
Day 224, penultimate level of warden
Book of everything on warden? Alright Warden is now level 29 who can give 69% health to my troops. This is actually good enough because the only thing lvl30 gives is the extra 0.5s protection effect. Honestly, these buff…
Day 222, warden lvl28
After just 3 days in this new season, I have attained the 15% discount to builders. This is important because now I can assume that I will always get a 15% discount to all my stuff regardless of when the new season rolls…
Day 217, AQ lvl59
This picture was taken on 30th April and I finally upgraded my AQ to lvl59. Tomorrow I will receive my season bank and would have enough to upgrade AQ again. I can finally consider my AQ done, all without using dumb hamm…
Day 216, halfway to 59
DE only at 126k right now, let's see the effort it took me to bring me to this level At least these raids show that miners can farm DE faster than barch but still haemorrhaging elixir. These raids show that I farmed 31k …
Day 215, AQ to lvl58
Ok, I'm going to cheat a little here... After having 200k DE, I'm just going to gem her a little to bring her to lvl57 And use a book of everything to get her to lvl58 immediately. This means I will have her available to…
Day 214, the mad dash begins
Oh no, only 4 days and 9 hours left and I need to grind my AQ at least to lvl59. What is her level right now? Shit, almost 560k DE required in 4 days Just a quick pic to show my progress right now. Next builder coming fr…
7 months down!
Day 213 Sorry for not posting for almost an entire week now. I was super busy juggling work, research and applying for another job. Now I will try to keep to my usual schedule of 1 post per day. Started my last 2 army ca…
Day 209, AQ to lvl55
Finished clan games and my clan was able to easily clear it. The choices are pretty simple, gems and magic items all the way. Rune is pretty much useless because everything is now so cheap and easy to upgrade. Books are …
Day 206, another level of AQ
Since my posts are now about a week behind my actual progress, I will not post every day. In the past if I forgotten to take a picture of my base, I will compensate and just keep posting. That's why you see sometimes it …
Day 204, another AQ level
Just enough DE for her next level, lvl53 here I come! Using one of my few stored books to complete AQ, I will run out of these soon and will need to spend gems for her. I'm quite sure I have enough gems for her right now…
Day 203, finishing season challenges
After a short 13 day grind, I have completed the entire list of challenges and now don't need to do any more quests that I don't want to do. I think its fairly important to rush through the quests up till the 15% discoun…
Day 202, insane buff to builder potions
Since there isn't much to show today, I will talk about builder potions and how they have been buffed beyond everything else in the league shop. This is mainly because hammers have been nerfed by 30-40% with the recent g…
Day 201, day 2 of TH12
Started my next lab upgrade, bowlers are now level 3 and my healers are going to max right now. It seems that I'm running out of good lab upgrades now so I will need to upgrade it soon enough. Lab only takes a few days s…
Day 199, wrapping up TH11
Ah, finally maxed storages and I'm all prepared for TH12. I have a 15% discount on everything in TH12 with the golden pass and I will abuse it to upgrade all the expensive stuff. I plan to upgrade two heroes (queen + war…
Day 197, end of CWL
Gotten 3rd place in crystal 3 in my casual friend's clan. They were using gowipe or mass valks which were only 2 starring enemies with almost zero chance of 3 stars. I really don't care whether we win or not but just abo…
Day 189, 2 upgrades in the lab
Started and completed balloons in the lab. I was really debating between this or healers but I figured that I would use balloons more often due to electro while healers are only good for QW. Healers are only in the discu…
Day 188, gold pass activate!
Finally, the april update came and now I can buy the coveted gold pass. This allows me to unlock a whole host of rewards. These rewards have been calculated to be worth about $200 which sounds fair with all the magic ite…
Day 186, finally started the upgrade to TH12
Town hall finally upgrading, about 2 weeks late. To be fair to myself, I never really planned to use so many books to finish AQ and warden so quickly, that act even surprised myself. At the very least, I will reach TH12 …
Day 184, the forgotten hero
I'm not talking about some unsung war hero who was never celebrated here, I'm talking about the barbarian king. Unfortunately due to his design, he will always be relegated to be a beatstick with no real role in attacks.…
Day 183, lvl20 warden
The final level, for now And definitely using this. I actually didn't knew that SC will give us ANOTHER book because they delayed the update by a day but I didn't care. Having no books was better as now I have a maxed wa…
6 months!!!
I must have done something wrong with my calculations because it is supposed to be day 181 now which is not possible if I have played the game for 6 months. I should be around 183 days but oh well. I will continue the da…
Day 180, lvl17 warden
Just got enough elixir for my next warden level, he's upgrading to lvl18 now. That means he just needs another 20mil to go, that's exciting. Once warden is maxed, my barch will get an effective 50% hp boost, that brings …
Day 179, enjoying the fruits of my labor
Sorry for not posting yesterday, look forward to another post later. Been using my maxed (for now) AQ for a day and it really is fun. Getting 50% is really easy now and I'm earning more loot because of that. AQ can also …
Day 178, maxed AQ!
Finally farmed enough DE to upgrade AQ AQ maxed! She's maxed! Now I can use her in every raid I do and she will help me get extra loot every raid with barch. She's also almost 80% as strong as lvl60 AQ, that's very stron…
Day 177, daily quests
Farmed almost 60k DE since yesterday so that makes me 80k short of my final AQ level for now. SC just gave us some daily quests to play around while waiting for the April update (picture taken 22nd March 2019) SC is intr…
Day 176, TH11 crows (+link)
I have actually changed my base for almost 2 weeks now and I forgotten to post about it, so now I will post it here. This is my rendition of the Crow's base for TH11. I see many people completely misunderstanding the rol…
Day 175, graduation ceremony
I just had my graduation ceremony yesterday after spending the past many years in medical school and I can feel is "second step out of a thousand, done". Every accomplishment is just another piece of building block, and …
Day 174, warden to 17
Sorry for not posting yesterday, I had my graduation ceremony after finishing medical school yesterday. I also didn't schedule any posts because my laptop broke down on me for the past week. I'm now using a potato laptop…
Day 173, AQ going to lvl49!
Early morning farming, just to get DE. People say rushing is hard, but in reality rushing is only hard if you want to max heroes quickly like me. Most people who rush can't farm as fast as me, yet can still make really g…
Day 172, on to business
A really long post today, time to start the grind. Today is a long, long day Yes, I would want to finish the AQ now Again, I want to finish the upgrade now. There you go, two levels of AQ nearly instantly. AQ lvl48, just…
Day 171, a fighting chance
Wow, the above pack is actually good for a low price. It seems like a recurring pack, coming back twice so far. Its $5 for 2 book of heroes, if you Only the middle RM19.9 ($5) pack is worth it, everything else is worthle…
Day 170, BK going to lvl31
In the end, I made the choice to upgrade BK because my DE is overflowing already. This is going to be a problem in the future when I max my AQ which is going to happen in less than 4 weeks. However, DE armies just take w…
Day 169,
Just posted yesterday's post in reddit, and one of the biggest comment is that "too long, didn't read". It is really disappointing to see idiots in reddit like that. Here's the post: https://www.reddit.com/r/ClashOfClans…
Day 168, opportunity cost
I'm thinking to make a series of posts, maybe once a week? Targeting things that general people don't understand. This week's topic will be regarding opportunity cost. Opportunity cost can be stated as the lost value whe…
Day 167, one day before I can spend loot
1 day to go before I can upgrade heroes, DE is already full and my elixir is nearly ready. Nothing much to see here honestly, just the regular grind. I'm just excited because I am going to max heroes in about a month. Af…
Day 166, season pass in clash?
Unless you've been living under a rock, you should know that a season pass system is going to be implemented in less than 3 days' time. The system has garnered a lot of criticism because people now say that clash of clan…
Day 165, CWL medals
Earned about 230 medals in the March cwl season, which isn't very good considering I already got the extra 90 bonus medals. I probably can't join or excel in a higher clan anyway, so I guess getting this amount is good e…
Day 164, BK going to lvl30
I actually didn't mention it in the past few days, but I joined CWL in a separate clan as shown above. I only had lvl1 electro which were pretty weak so I spent all 5 of my power potions to get lvl2 electro with lvl7 loo…
Day 162, starting my day right
First upgrade of the day, warden going to lvl15 now. At lvl15, he's more than 50% as strong as lvl30 warden. Quite a design flaw imo especially because the first 15 levels only cost as much as 33% of lvl30. Diminishing r…
Day 161, AQ and warden is almost ready
After gemming the gold storage, this is what my base looks like this morning. DE still dangerously going to overflow, but luckily AQ will wake up in about 30 hours Warden and AQ going to finish on the same day and nearly…
Day 160, full storages
Ugh, full loot yet again. Why is TH11 so painful? Everything takes pretty long and having 3 heroes down still doesn't provide me enough ways to dump my elixir and DE. I don't understand how people find loot hard to farm …
Day 158, walls are built on elixir
Well, finally gotten my final barracks to lvl12 which means I can now train miners are full speed, but is it worth it? Not too sure, wasting elixir when my walls are already behind is probably not a good idea. Many peopl…
5th Month, Day 155
5 months since starting my account and this is my progress below: DE almost overflowing now and heroes still have some time to go, ugh. At least this means that I'm making really good progress despite being so rushed. De…
Day 149, wallbreaker upgrading
One of the biggest upgrades for TH11/12 are wallbreakers. At least they would allow me to one shot lvl8 walls. As previously mentioned, I think they should make walls much stronger at higher levels and subsequently make …
Day 147, economy changes
BK upgrading now after having my DE dangerously close to full yesterday. I have 255 camp space now and just waiting for the last army camp to complete 2.3 days to farm another 90k DE, super easy and I will most likely ov…
Day 146, having one hero upgrading is not enough
DE getting dangerously close to full now, I need to start the BK upgrade soon so that I don't overflow. Upgrading both heroes at once only costs 45k DE per day, and my drills produce 8.4k. This means I only need to farm …
Day 145, CWL medal changes
And after less than 2 days, I have enough DE for the barbarian king now. Goes to show how easy loot is right now and people's unnecessary fear of "loot penalty" which doesn't exist anymore. The only loot penalty that exi…
Day 144, another normal day
This picture just shows another average day, I'm just upgrading some archer towers which take just a few hours Just want something to bridge in between builders. With army camps going to complete soon, I'm turning my foc…
Day 143, upgrading barracks then queen
I better upgrade one of these otherwise I might be blindsided by a electro dragon event later. If you are at the TH level where you can unlock a troop, events will take that into account and you need to build some of you…
Day 142b, using book of heroes
And this is why my post got too long. I used a book of heroes which meant I need to farm a huge amount to make it worth it. Let me explain. Book of heroes is only as good as how fast you can farm. It is generally not use…
Day 142a, the benefit of upgrading Warden
Warden just reached lvl10, which is great. His growth slows down pretty quickly but he's still the fastest growing thing in the entire game. Since warden buffs different troops differently, it's hard to gauge his real be…
Day 141, giants in lab
Wanted to upgrade wallbreakers in lab yesterday but had to dump my elixir into army camps. As I said in my post yesterday, I should've upgraded BK instead of army camps then work on wb in lab. Army camps just don't give …
Day 139, hungry for elixir
Wasn't able to farm enough elixir yesterday after doing an army camp and warden. I used one builder to work on a gold mine instead of another army camp. This is why rushing is so wonderful, I can do so many cheap upgrade…
Day 138, more logs
Somehow forgotten to take a picture of my base again but took pictures of my attack log so that's all I can share today One hour boost and I was able to make an insane amount of loot. I had to boost to maximise my power …
Day 137, army camps are a scam too
Just started another AQ level as well as my 3rd army camp. Army camps really do become a ripoff when you reach high levels. At TH11, each army camp costs 9mil elixir and 10 days. Yet they only increase your total army si…
Day 136, only logs here
Didn't take any pictures of my base today but there aren't any builders coming free anyway. I just took a bunch of pictures of attack logs, they are not as engaging as live or real attacks but they show a snapshot of the…
Day 135, heroes are no longer a grind
After doing random junk the past 2 days, I am now going back to upgrading BK. It wasn't a problem in the past because heroes took 7 days from lvl15 onwards. This made it extremely easy to set up hero upgrade times so tha…
Day 134, golden hog
Bought the $5 golden hog pack, which had 3 builder potions, fairly worth it. I would personally value each builder potion as 250 gems and the pack costs $5. That amount normally gives 500 gems and the pack has a free gol…
Day 132, planning builders
Maxed gold and nearly maxed elixir while only half DE. I have learned to continue farming despite maxed gold but having two maxed resources make me lazy to farm and I would lose motivation to do so. This is why I always …
Day 131, Lunar new year pack
This was the Lunar New Year pack, there are quite a few good packs here. The first $1 pack which gives 1 builder potion is amazing, it is much more worth it than the normal 80-120 gems you can buy for the same price. The…
Day 128, BK is awake
BK is awake right now because I elected to use a builder to work on collectors. The main reason being to space out my builders. If I had upgraded BK, I would have a 2-3 day gap without any free builders which is bad. Thi…
Day 127, regular day
Just another random day after upgrading AQ and GW again, they're going along really nicely and smoothly. I haven't even tried using warden once, would love to use him with maxed barbs, that will be OP. Warden going to lv…
Day 126, Immense defense
I've touched upon this offer before but I'll say it again. The "immense defense" $5 pack has 1mil gold and a book of building. This allows new TH11 to overflow storages and get 10mil gold. This gold can then be used to u…
Day 125, Feb 2019 update
Upgrades going on now. I have 3 heroes upgrading because DE was overflowing and I still needed to wait 2 days for AQ to wake up. DE is perfectly fine in TH11 so people shouldn't fear upgrading to TH11 really. AQ waking u…
Day 124, Grand Warden tutorial
This is my only picture on Day 124, unfortunately didn't take a picture of my base but you can see that my DE is overflowing already. I have AQ upgrading and cannot upgrade BK because I am busy upgrading other things. Wa…
Day 123, day 2 of TH11
2nd day of TH11 is much easier now, because the only upgrade you should have if you read my guides, is a lvl4 warden. Now is a good time to farm extra for walls. He will take 1.5 day now, and will only get longer and lon…
Day 122 (part 2), TH11 continued
Just a side track here, earned 100mil from treasury already. No doubt it is all because I am in a FWA clan. Did you know that in the past, treasurer:war stars ratio was a way to judge a player before including them in wa…
Day 121, last day before TH11
Oops, didn't save up loot for TH11 so now I need to farm hard 21 hours to go, now I need to farm 6/6mil for TH11. I also didn't prepare loot in my treasury and collectors, oh well. Luckily I have my Rune of Elixir ready.…
Day 120, lvl0 Archer Queen for TH11
Because of my overflowing DE, I am just going to gem AQ. This is why my gems rarely if ever goes above 11k, this might make TH12 hard because I estimate that I might need around 15k gems for both AQ and warden. Not sure …
Day 118, ticking towards TH11
Almost 100k DE farmed in the past day, this would be crucial afterwards when I grind AQ to lvl60. I'm saving up most of my gems for TH12 when I want to get lvl60 AQ in less than a month. For now, I am upgrading elixir co…
Day 115
Late to post :( Was busy the entire past week so didn't have time to pre-write this. Just upgraded AQ again, and now my DE is halfway full. Really TH11 is going to be tough when I have all 3 heroes upgrading, loot is jus…
Day 114, inching towards TH11
With TH11 coming up, I would need to adjust my builders so that I have 4-5 builders coming free on Day 1 of TH11. I also need to adjust my lab so ensure that I can finish a troop upgrade at the same time as my lab is don…
Day 112, upgrading to TH11!
Finally, after deciding that walls are going to complete too soon, I am now upgrading to TH11. This picture was taken on 16th of Jan, so I would reach TH11 on 26th which is Saturday. That would allow me ample time to far…
Day 111, no daily picture
Forgotten to take a picture of my base today :( So only two pictures Despite being super rushed, I managed to destroy 250 infernos so far, I wonder how many TH8s can do this achievement? Granted, most of the infernos I a…
Day 109, AQ to lvl35
Ok, instead of waiting for another day and having full DE (being a sitting duck), I would rather just spend the gems and start another AQ level. I would probably be better served if I just buy every single builder potion…
Day 108, talking about AQ now
Just a day of nothing in between big hero upgrades. DE is full, gold and elixir will be full within 3-5 raids 4 builders coming free in the next 36 hours, gotta farm hard to keep walls upgrading and builders building. Ho…
Day 106, BK lvl21
BK is way too cheap still, unfortunately its still not fully worth it. BK growth is just so slow that he's only the 3rd best hero out there. Heroes actually grow exponentially but it grows so slowly that it is almost unn…
Day 104, lots of gems
Reached BH8 and 3000 trophies, so I earned myself another 1000 gems. This would make my gem count 10k, finally. I'm still storing and keeping all my gems, hopefully they will be enough for my TH12 journey. Based on my fi…
Day 102, back to upgrading collectors
DE 80k yesterday, 157k today. I still need to wait some time before any hero wakes up :/ Some builders coming free in another day, so I just started an elixir collector instead of continue to work on defenses. Collectors…
Day 101, upgrading defense
Upgrading a wizard tower instead of another collector right now. If I upgraded a collector, I would have no available builder for 2 days which means huge waste of loot. Instead, I am upgrading something shorter so that I…
Day 100! A milestone!
After some pretty insane farming, managed to farm the 80k DE necessary for AQ to lvl33. She's sleeping now, BK is awake though so I'll try to rectify that Hmm, what is that on the left side? Yep, easy peasy. 70-80k DE fo…
Day 99, 2 AQ upgrades in a day
Another level of elixir pump and dark barracks done, now my DE is unfortunately overflowing but AQ still has a day to go This is the most common warning I see, pretty annoying Was thinking to just wait out the timer, but…
Day 98, new year offer
Yep, this post was 1 month old, trying to catch up. If you noticed, sometimes I "skip" a day in the counter. This usually means I forgotten to take a picture of my base for that day or there was zero upgrades going on th…
Day 97, some logs
Another level of BK done! Also started another elixir collector. Doing the maths, I think maxing out one elixir collector then working on the next seems more efficient than upgrading them evenly Yup, BK going to lvl18 no…
Day 96, rage spell
Typed this out in reddit so I'll just paste it here: For current game balance, a new rage spell level is necessary. Given that th10 troops are about 60-80% as strong as th12, dps-wise. It is no wonder we see th10s gettin…
Day 95, is dark elixir easier to farm now?
Just started the upgrade of both my heroes and my DE right now is 60k. Its amazing how easy loot is right now, heroes took longer to upgrade in the past and I wasn't overflowing DE like crazy. Right now, I have to skip 2…
Day 92, picture of my 3rd month progress
Since I didn't have a picture yesterday, this picture would serve as my 3rd month picture: 3rd month and I'm a TH10 with 15/30 heroes and maxed TH10 offense buildings. With a power potion, I can crush any TH9 in the worl…
3 months! Unfortunately no picture
Yes, my account is 3 months old by now. However I forgotten to take a picture of my base on this day, I do have 2 pictures but they aren't really showing my base. Will post a nice picture tomorrow. Got this picture, spen…
Day 90, Xmas gift for myself
Yup, ponied up $10 for the best offer in the Xmas pack, 1200 gems and 5 builder potions. That was really an insane value which translated to 225 hours of builder time Too bad the packs were not renewable, so no extra bui…
Day 89, Xmas offers
This was my base on Xmas eve, we get the xmas offers at that time. While people in most of the western world was celebrating, I was working Xmas eve and every single day during that time. Christmas really isn't celebrate…
Day 88, the valk event
Just completed the valk event, which was not really useful because This was my army for that event, mass valks were not an option because of their obscene training time. Having lvl1 valks is fine, but each valk taking 1.…
Day 87, more lab work
Ok, healers lvl2 are done so I'm upgrading goblins now. They actually grow pretty decently at lvl7 but only generally useful for dropping cups, not for all-purpose farming They are also one of the longest lab upgrades in…
Day 84, some attack logs
Nothing much here today, barracks still upgrading, started another gold mine Attack logs: Hmm, looking at my old attack logs, I realise how much I don't care about DE. Currently I'm hitting nothing but 4-5k DE bases desp…
Day 83, about upgrading collectors
People often ask me why I focus on collectors before defenses, the answer is really easy actually. Defenses do nothing, so why should I upgrade them? Now let's see how I can prioritize my upgrades, its either defenses > …
Day 82, rage spell upgrade is a ripoff
If you do not know, the rage spell formula is: Base damage * (100% + rage spell bonus) = final damage For lvl2 rage spell on lvl2 miner (base damage = 150) Final damage = 150 * (100+140)% = 360 For lvl3 rage on lvl2 mine…
Day 80, mad farm for DE
As you remember from yesterday, I gemmed and booked my AQ so now she is awake and I'm in a mad scramble to farm enough DE to start her next level. El primos were still around at that time and they were crazy good. Made b…
Day 79, TH10 crows
Finally rearranged my base to the TH10 base, was missing the 2nd bomb tower previously but now that its done I can build the proper base. The TH10 version of the Crows is stronger, I love this base. Need to create a TH11…
Day 78, unlocked the most OP spell in the game
I actually unlocked this after it was nerfed the first time, with this and a power potion, I actually had the power to 3 star maxed TH11s or so people said. The bat spell actually offered a good chance to rebalance the e…
Day 76, first maxed drill
Will be busy the next two days, so there will be no post tomorrow. Traveling for work :( Well, first maxed drill done so it will be providing me with free 2880 DE per day. If I were a maxer, I would still be a TH7/8 who …
Day 74, rant about inferno tower
So instead of upgrading my final drill, I chose to build my 2nd inferno which probably can help me in defense. Single mode inferno is something that is poorly balanced imo, lvl1 is pretty strong already and doesn't get m…
Day 72, AQ going to lvl24
Spent about 100k DE to start AQ lvl24 and first barracks going to lvl11 now. I'm upgrading my barracks all the way to lvl12 before starting the second one. The main reason is to unlock all troops first so that I can comp…
Day 71, army camps almost done
3 down, 1 to go. I have 235 army camp space now and my barch takes 10% longer to train compared to TH9. Training times should be decreased when you increase your troop levels to correspond with increased army camp size. …
Day 69, using book of fighting
Another level of AQ done, and my DE is still going to overflow in like 2 days. Being a TH10 is tough, too much dark! And I still wonder why people farm in TH8/9 despite knowing this. Its like an alcoholic who keeps drink…
Day 68, spent 10mil elixir
Well, managed to farm enough elixir easily so now both army camps and barracks are upgrading. I find the storage limit really restrictive because it only takes like 20 raids to max out and I have to waste my elixir while…
Day 67, overflowing on everything
Overflowing on everything now! Used extra DE to upgrade AQ, and now my DE is still overflowing. I wish I had more builders so that I could upgrade BK as well but that is currently out of the picture. Still waiting on all…
Day 65, DE overflowing
Sigh, same old problem all the time. Even in gold league, my DE is overflowing. Crystal has much more abundant DE but seems like gold is working perfectly for DE farming. Still waiting on most of my upgrades CC is comple…
Day 64, spell factory complete
Alright, so after almost a week in TH10 my spell factory is done. It is maxed now and I cannot upgrade it ever again, at least until they release another level. Though given the current balance of TH11/12, I doubt they w…
Day 63, AQ lvl20
Started AQ lvl20 on the first or second day of TH10, now she's done and I will keep her upgrading no matter what. I have enough DE for BK easily and plenty to spare, but I don't have builders to spare so I will defer him…
2 months! Upgrading barch
Lab complete! First thing I do, upgrade barbs Now, within the first few days of TH10, I have already completed my lab and barbs lvl7 as well. This I how I believe you should always use rune of elixir and book of fighting…
Day 61, bought the Black Friday pack
If you can't tell by now, my pictures are 1 month older than my current base, just mouse over or open my pictures in a new tab to check out when the pictures are taken. The above picture was taken on 25th Nov 2018. Peopl…
Day 60, 3rd day of TH10
Happy 2019! Missed some pictures from yesterday, I only have these 3 pictures below showing me spending gems to finish AQ. After buying the TH10 value pack and getting 150k DE, it was inevitable that I will overflow on m…
Day 58, TH10!
The last 7 hours before TH10, just going to do some short upgrades while waiting for the TH to complete. Pretty excited for TH10 because farming is super easy and I should be able to keep heroes upgrading without any pro…
Day 57, last day before TH10
Forgotten to take pictures the last 3 days so this is the only picture I have. I'm 29 hours away from being a TH10, so I am saving up all my gold/lix to kickstart my TH10 upgrades. Imagine, instead of working on lab, sf …
Day 53, 4.5 days to TH10
Everything is going accordingly to plan now, mostly done with everything and I can wait to reach TH10 now. It seems strange that 8 days seem so fast comparatively now, you need to wait 4 days to reach TH7 and that was pr…
Day 52, 1mil heroic heist
Already have 100k DE prepared, and AQ is going to wake soon. She's going to lvl17 right now and I start her as soon as she wakes up later today I also started my TH upgrade yesterday, now I'm 5.5 days to reaching TH10. D…
Day 49, defense log - who says rushers get crushed?
Started my 2nd barracks to lvl9, its actually better now to focus on barracks one at the time, so that you unlock all the troops you can. In the long past, each barracks has its own limit as to how many troops you can tr…
Day 48, using book of heroes
AQ upgrade to lvl15 Book of heroes! That's why I farmed 138k for this, two levels of AQ easily done. This is another thing that really helps rushing, the magical items. If you are stuck at lower TH levels, these books re…
Day 43, missed pictures
Ah, forgotten to take pictures of the last 2 days, so now I skipped to day 43 :( And I realised that I missed pictures for the next 2 days as well. Oh well. Base looking good, AQ still upgrading, barbs are done in lab so…
Day 40, wall progress
Started another level of DE drill, first drill going to lvl6 now. I'll have my first maxed drill in 6 days, which used to cost 10 days. After that I will get 2.4k DE/day from the drill which is going to help me max queen…
Day 39, nothing today
Nothing much today, just showing that my gold and elixir are almost overflowing while my DE is quite a long ways to my target of 50k. Both my drills are upgrading and it makes DE a tiny bit tougher, but its going to be w…
Day 38, started AQ lvl10
Arch lvl6 finished in lab, just started barbs lvl6. So now I have an excess of gold and DE with no elixir. Fortunately I have enough DE for the next AQ upgrade but she takes another 2 hours to complete. I just activated …
Day 37, first week of TH9
Nothing much going on, just started AQ yesterday night, need to grind another 32k by tomorrow morning AQ lvl8 already, and I'm barely one week into TH9. Its insane how much faster heroes are now, it only takes 80 days to…
Day 36, working on drills
Unfortunately, I somehow only have a close up picture of my base without the full base. Just showing off spending 43 gems to complete drill lvl4 Farming is too easy and I overflow on resources constantly, so I just spend…
Day 35, The crows
Missed a day of pictures, oh well. Farming is really easy using barch, just find dead bases and get loot, so easy. The Crows is the best base out there, I knew the creator personally, Phoenix (Aphrodi in the forums) and …
Day 33, AQ lvl6
The 4th day of TH9 is probably the hardest, where lab, sf and clan castle complete on the same day so you need to farm hard to keep them all busy again. Lab becomes empty too, so If you read my TH9 guide, you'll know wha…
Day 32, 3rd day of TH9
Early today, just started AQ before I slept. Now I need to farm the 30k required for AQ for tonight. New walls are lvl8 already and working on lvl9 walls. Lvl9 walls now cost 500k each, which is a complete joke. I can cl…
End of 1st month, 2nd day of TH9
Wow, first month since I started playing this account and this is my progress. SC really boosted the speed of lower levels, coupled with the fact that I know more about how useless most upgrades are. This has allowed me …
Day 30, first day of TH9, first mistake
Can you see the mistake above? Probably not, because I missed the mistake too. I gemmed my town hall upgrade last night, so I used all my extra builders to upgrade AQ, spell factory, one camp, clan castle and my mistake …
Day 29b, TH9!
Ok, got way too boring so I just went ahead and gemmed the town hall, now I'm a TH9! Now the game finally begins, my god it took almost a month Always start by seeing the value pack and whether it is worth it or not. The…
Day 29, boring day before TH9
Nothing much, just collecting my drills in anticipation of TH9. 1 day to go for wb, just in time for my town hall upgrade. Will start wb lvl5 right before upgrading the lab
Day 27, 3 days to TH9
Almost maxed my lvl8 walls, walls are really too easy these days, its absurd. Despite that, I still lost about 20-30mil elixir because I have nowhere to spend it. This will change very soon when I reach TH9, finally. BK …
Day 26, finally maxed storages
3.5 days to TH9, can't wait. Lvl11 storages (current max for TH7-10) still take 2 days despite the reductions for lvl2-10, makes them a little out of place compared to the others but its not a big deal. At least lvl12 st…
Day 24, town hall upgrading
Started the upgrade to TH9 yesterday if you read my post thoroughly. Good timing too, since my walls are halfway done by now. The 7 day upgrade timer isn't so bad by now at TH8 since things take 3-5 days now. Elixir stil…
Day 23, upgrading Archers
2 seconds before BK is awake, and.. He's back asleep again. Book of heroes! Now he's lvl8 and awake. Got this BoH from clan games so its essentially free, but you shouldn't buy a BoH from the trader and use it. While its…
Day 22, overflowing elixir
Another day of TH8 means another day of maxed elixir. I haven't even spent more than a week in TH8 and the problem is already there. Many people in reddit are just asking about this as a TH8/9 and people still stupidly a…
Day 21, still neglecting storages
So instead of prioritizing storages, I chose to build my new 3rd tesla instead. I don't think that was a really sound decision but oh well. BK awake at lvl6 right now, need to farm another 8k DE for the next upgrade, sho…
Day 20, working on TH8 offense
Nothing much to show here, BK almost reaching lvl6 now. Actually I should be focusing my time to upgrade storages so that I can farm more instead of my current predicament. But I left storages almost till the end for TH8…
Day 18, day 2 of TH8
I'm just starting TH8, and my elixir is already overflowing. This is the problem with TH8, if you upgrade anything gold or DE based, your elixir will overflow too easily. This is why everyone should rush to TH9 asap and …
Day 17, TH8!
Few minutes to having 4 free builders, after that its gemming to TH8 time. Thankfully, TH8 has almost no offense upgrades, so having high elixir is not really crucial. I have lower elixir because I just started lvl4 loon…
Day 16, last day of TH7
1d6h to TH8, I activated a 1 day shield to protect my loot. Still upgrading the same 5 things but they will be done before I reach TH8 so that's good. My lab is basically only maxed barch and wb, nothing else. I'm rushi…
Day 15, lvl7 walls complete
Still upgrading barracks, storages, dark barracks and BK Timed my TH8 upgrade a little poorly, now I have maxed walls while waiting for the TH to complete. Town hall still has almost 2 days to go, now I'm just waiting ar…
Day 14, 3 days to go
Still waiting for my drill, can you believe that it used to take almost a week to get 3 drill levels? And 24 days just to bring it from lvl3 to lvl6, crazy! Now it only takes 5.5 days to bring it from lvl6>7 instead of 6…
Day 12, upgrading to TH8
Starting my upgrade to TH8 now because I'm almost done with everything important in TH7. The town hall upgrade takes 7 days, an entire week! Enough time to complete everything else that I haven't. DE drill is still low l…
Day 11, still a TH7
Trying out wordpress's new editor right now, feels like something off squarespace or something. Will need to play around with this. I have thought at times to make a patreon or paypal donate option so that I can use word…
Day 10, Barbarian king
Spot the difference between these two pictures: The answer is in the title, after my DE storage is done, I can finally grind out 10k DE for my first BK level. With a lvl1 DE storage, I can store 12.5k DE so that's enough…
Day 9, TH7!
Finally, after the long long 4 day timer, I'm finally TH7. First thing I did? Build and upgrade the 4th army camp and receive an instant 20% boost to my army capacity. At least TH7 finally has decent upgrades to do, such…
Day 8, Still upgrading to TH7
Just another day of boring upgrading. 3 army camps upgrading and they will be maxed before I get to TH7, so that's 150 camp space. No good lab upgrades for TH6 so just doing giants, loons and goblins. My barrack is extre…
Day 7, TH6!
Already upgrading to TH7, in fact. TH6 was a blur because I plopped everything down (4 defenses in total), withdrew from my treasury (FWA loot ftw!) then upgraded my town hall straightaway. So basically as a new TH6, I d…
Day 5, upgrading to TH6
Unfortunately I forgotten to take a picture of day 4 :( So day 5 it is! Almost TH6 already, I started the town hall upgrade somewhere in day 3. TH5 at least has some small value in that I can upgrade barch to lvl3, contr…
Day 3, TH5!
Alright, after the long 24 hours of upgrading, I'm finally there. TH4 is simple enough, the main focus is still storages. You should be able to max storages before you turn TH5, everything else is non-essential for now I…
Day 2, TH4!
Reached TH4 and the first thing I went to find is what is the TH4 pack. Its actually decent in the sense that it gives you enough resources off the bat to start the TH5 upgrade immediately. Too bad TH8/9 packs now don't …
Day 1B, TH3!
After 3 hours of grinding, I finally reached TH3! For TH3, its pretty simple, just drop all new stuff (2nd army camp and lab!) and upgrade storages like a madman. The town hall upgrade costs 25k gold and after you can af…
Day 1, A new beginning
Even before anything begins (actually after the tutorial), I'll just spend my $15 to buy 2 builder packs. These builder packs are insane and I highly recommend everyone who starts the game to buy it. Its an approximately…
MiniSin TH12 Journal (day 92)

Ah, 5 days since the last update. And in the past 5 days I have pushed into titans and I want to ask, what is the hype in this place? Loot is shit and you need to next for 5-15min to find a good base. I definitely can ea…
MiniSin TH11 Journal (day 48)
One day of farming in lower champs has yielded me much better loot than Champs 1: 192k DE in 3 days, good DE? Not really, but I'm not hardcore farming right now because of maxed AQ and GW. I will need some extra DE if I …

Another day of farming in Champs 1. Loot is quite bad here, I'm making less loot per day farming here compared to crystal and that is with my army costing nearly zero. This is due to a multitude of reasons, one being poo…

Some hardcore inefficient farming done on this account. Man, its painful to use laloon here in champs. I can barely score 3 storages so only 270k elixir per raid with a huge 250k elixir and 2.5k DE cost. Its crazy. I won…

Post update and we have a new, cleaner interface. I quite like this HUD. Allowed my free builder to work on a gold storage. I'll need the 10mil capacity so that I can upgrade my CC. The additional spell is a game changer…

Left a free builder for this account. Going to do walls despite the price cut because the loot is going to go to waste if I don't drop it into walls. And doing it this way makes it impossible for me to lose loot since I …

Another day of doing cannons. I'm DE is dangerously going to overflow soon and BK still needs 2 day before he wakes up. Probably can't afford gems to gem heroes to prevent overflow so I'll have to deal with it. Will try …

Spending the whole day to work on storages now. Despite the bad protection for gold and elixir, I'm still working on them so that I'll be able to protect more loot when people attack me. DE well enough to work on AQ and …
Journal (TH9 day 8)
Well, did my AQ lvl7 and have half the amount needed to keep her down again. This is called efficiency. 36 barbs, 80 arch, 12 giants, 12 wb is all I use. CC bowlers are pretty strong but any decent cc will do as you wrec…
Journey (TH9 day 7)
Got enough DE to upgrade AQ half a day before she's awake. I'm quite busy today so unfortunately not much more DE to be gained. Started to build tesla so that I can have a free builder tomorrow to work on my storages. Ha…
Journal (TH9 day 6)
Still on the grind for AQ, and that's all every new TH9 should focus on. AQ takes 52.5 days to reach lvl15, so the lesser she sleeps, the earlier you reach that goal, simple really. Attack log: And this is how I'm gettin…
Journal (TH9 day 5)
Today is my second anniversary of my first account. Going to post about it later. Have adjusted my base into a 8.5 variation of the Crows. The Crows is a good base because the creator was rushed when he made the base, so…
Journal (TH9 day 4)
Finally gotten enough DE to put AQ down, right before she woke up. Farming DE is really tough on this noob account, because I need to sacrifice gold and elixir income greatly. Once I get TH9 troops though, I hope this wi…
Journal (TH9 day 3)
Finally farmed enough for AQ lvl4, now working on AQ lvl5. Its funny how cheap the later AQ levels become. My TH10 is farming for lvl31 right now and requires 155k over 7 days, 22k/day minus 5k from drills. This account …
Journal (TH9 day 2)
AQ demands are quite high especially the first few levels. Trying to get 27.5k for her lvl4 upgrade and its proving hard. DE farming in TH9 requires sacrificing gold and elixir income and is comparatively slower than TH1…
Journal (TH9 day 1)
So before going into TH9, I'll give my baseline stats: 137 purples and 88 skulls. People claim that those without maxed skulls have butter walls. We'll see Troops: Goblin level 5 is in lab while the building is upgrading…
Journal (Day 66)
Half a day to go before I reach TH9! I'm all prepared, got all the loot needed. I know loot will be good in TH9, so that doesn't worry me. Now I just need to go through the mental barrier of starting the hero grind again…
Journal (Day 64)
3 days left to TH9. DE is getting there, so got that going for me. I'm confident in getting 6mil gold within 6 hrs so that's fine. Everything set for TH9. Stay tuned for the TH8 guide
Journal (Day 63)
Working on that new shiny mortar. Was too lazy to farm yesterday, so not much progress seen here. But my TH10 has been doing quite well these few days. DE is overflowing, making me consider upgrading both heroes at once
Journal (Day 62)
Dumped away all my gold into walls. Standing at 80 or so skulls, I think I'm in a "good spot". Finally building my 3rd tesla, defended well even without it. The first 3 levels of AQ are 40k, 22.5k, 25k. A total of 87.5k,…
Journal (2nd month)
Today is the day I reach the second month of my journey. Compared to a maxer, I'm already moving to TH9 and easily making more DE than any maxed account right now. Though I failed to reach TH9 before the 2nd month, I'm s…
Journal (Day 60)
Farming for DE and gold today. Just thought it'll be nice to have 80k on hand when I reach TH9 so that I can do 3 levels of AQ right off the bat. Will stop using hogs for farming DE soon I think, because they're really n…
Journal (Day 58)
Today just farming casually to get DE for AQ and gold for walls. Ideally I'll have 60-80k DE and 3mil gold when I reach TH9. Can't wait!
Journal (Day 57)
Finally started my upgrade to TH9! That's a long stay in TH8 for me, as a result, I've wasted approximately 20-30mil elixir over the course of TH1-8 which is quite a large amount. DE is also quite bad at TH7/8, so I hope…
Journal (Day 55)
DE farming has been decent today. Upgrading and planning my TH9 ugprade. When I do my TH9 upgrade, I want readers to see how I time stuff and the rationale behind them.
Journal (Day 53)
Realised that I need to work on BK, so I bought a 2 hr guard. That is the best boon a rusher has, farming for 2 hrs uninterrupted while not needing to constantly swipe the screen. My first rushed account was tough becaus…
Journal (Day 52)
Starting to work on low level defenses now, see that mortar. Elixir storage that finishes today will mean that I have maxed storages for TH8. Just realised I need to do my dsf so planning to do it later. With nearly maxe…
Journal (Day 51)
Base looking quite well now, considering to move up to TH9 soon. BK is quite underleveled and I need to work on him asap. Starting to have maxed barracks soon and plan to have at least 2 maxed barracks before going to TH…
Journal (Day 48)
BK going to lvl8 now. Hope to max him before reaching TH9, but I know I rushed my main with just a lvl7 BK, so no hurry there. Offense > Resources > Defense
Journal (Day 47)
Well, another day and I've started my barracks upgrade. Barracks take so long that a rusher must keep one down forever to max them all in time. But once maxed, you'll be lightyears ahead of maxers who stay in THs below. …
Journal (Day 46)
Well, bk has awoken at lvl7 now, no difference felt. The chill thing about TH8 is that you can choose not to focus on heroes, farm a little DE and yet still max your hero. That's why maxers are lulled to think that they …
Journal (Day 44)
My semester has started so that might slow down progress. As you can see, I'm working on bk again and finally gotten lvl5 archers. I can say that lvl5 archers are a huge buff and is a first priority upgrade for any TH8 p…
Journal (Day 45)
After finishing all purple walls, I'm doing skulls now. Its not important to max skulls at all, but I prefer having around 50 of them when I reach TH9. As a new TH9, elixir demands are so high that one can easily do half…
Journal (Day 42)
Another 3 days has passed. Was on a vacation for 3 days so I just did any upgrade I could afford in that time, which included a WT and an AD. A rusher always has the advantage of doing cheaper upgrades when you cannot be…
Journal (Day 39)
Finished my lab and immediately started archers lvl5. The subsequent free builder is then allocated to barracks duty. Because of rushing, I rarely have 4 barracks running at the same time due to their upgrades. The highe…
Journal (Day 38)
Well, picture first. Rearranged my base into a TH8 DE protection base, which is actually useless because I'm basically defenseless. If you can see, I'm exclusively doing all my elixir upgrades first. The best defensive u…
Journal (Day 35)
First day in TH8 Loot is quite easy to come by at TH8, and lvl5 barch means more loot than ever available to be taken. However, it takes a full fortnight to get those so I'll need to rely on a TH7 army to survive. As you…
Journal (Day 34)
Finalising all the preparations in TH8 right now. As a new TH8, I'll upgrade lab, dark spell factory, cc and DE storage asap. I'll write out the reasoning in my TH8 guide :) As you can see, most builders would be free ar…
Journal (Day 33)
Back from a 3 day vacation, now back to posting! Nothing much has changed actually. If you can see closely, I'm doing rage spell in my lab even though its not an essential upgrade. The main reason is that that upgrade ca…
Journal (Day 32)
Only 2.5 days left to the worst TH imo, and I'm about to max my walls now. There's no outlet for elixir anymore so I won't farm much these few days, just need to make sure I have enough for the initial TH8 upgrades. Defe…
Journal (Day 31)
The first month of my account is up. Unlike most maxers who would still be in TH4-6 by now, I'm well on my way to TH8. With lvl4 barch and 200 camp space, anyone can farm in TH7 easily. It seems to me that there is no po…
Journal (Day 30)
3 days since my last picture, now at least I'm nearly maxed with all my elixir buildings. As I said previously, no need to worry about BK because he's now going to TH5. With high level troops, its easy to bust into any T…
Journal (Day 27)
After very little thought, I decided to push this account to TH8. Its simple really, I'm nearly maxed with my elixir structures and I find my elixir constantly overflowing, so TH8 it is. Notice my defenses are still arou…
Journal (Day 25)
Having maxed Dark storage for TH7 means I can push king to TH7 max now. Working on those lvl1 defenses as I accrue enough loot for the next upgrade. That's an advantage of rushing, whenever I cannot afford a new upgrade,…
Journal (Day 23)
Started my tesla already because why not. Its a free 34 dps for a day's upgrade, which is much faster than any other upgrade I can do. See, that's why adding new defenses help so much more than upgrading levels. If peopl…
Journal (Day 22)
Well, if I were a TH6 now I would still be at 0 DE and lvl 0 BK with nowhere near to having a barbarian king. That's why its almost stupid to stay in lower TH levels when going up earlier would benefit one the most. Noth…
Journal (Day 21)
Missed a few days there because I've forgotten to take pictures of my base. But just see the progress there, even gotten my BK already. Archers lvl4 are a huge step up and well worth the rush. I've unlocked dragons if yo…
Journal (Day 18)
Finally doing spell factory after completing lab and starting archers lvl4 in lab. A TH6 would still be at 150 space right now, but I have 185 as a rushed TH7. That huge offensive boost is much more worth it than staying…
Journal (Day 17)
Continuing to chug along. If you notice, I haven't done my spell factory yet and it isn't a mistake. Because I think maxing drills, barracks and camps are more important right now; I won't be using rage spells to raid an…
Journal (Day 16)
End of first day in TH7, got all my walls up till pink easily. If you find that you're farming as fast as me, its a good sign that rushing is the best way for you. Working on barracks, drill and camps while neglecting de…
Journal (Day 12)
So terribly sorry because I forgotten to take a picture of my base in the last 2 days. Here's my base after almost half day in day 12. Yeap, despite me hating on it, I've nearly maxed walls. Its actually very easy to max…
Journal (Day 9)
Finally a new TH6. This is the most boring TH ever and nothing I really like is here. No barch levels, costly and inefficient camp upgrades, no new barracks to speed things up. The only things you gain here is the 2nd mo…
Journal (Day 8)
I'm so terribly sorry because I forgotten to take pictures on Days 6 and 7. But they'll be mostly the same old stuff anyways. See that I'm only 1 day away from reaching TH6. Maxing walls was too easy, only 3mil loot or s…
Journal (day 5)
Being a TH5 again is fun, especially with maxed troops in my CC to own enemies. The 3rd army camp really improve offense by a huge margin not to mention the upgrades to barbs. I'm upgrading barbs to lvl3 right now hoping…
Journal (day 4)
Its just the 4th day I'm playing and I'm already a TH5. The 3rd army camp is pivotal here, increasing your troop capacity from 80 to 135! That's insane. That's why odd numbered TH levels are the best, they're generally v…
Journal (Day 3)
The 3rd day of my journey! Walls are maxed no problem, in fact almost everything is maxed with 20 hours to go until I reach TH5 Mass barbs still the way to go, with a complement of hogs in the CC to wreck any base I see.
Journal (Day 2)
Journal entries would be set on the end of a day. So day 2 means "the end of day 2". Its been barely 12 hours since I reached TH4 and I quickly pushed up to TH5. I know loot will only get better if I move up, and 2 days …
Journal of MiniSin
I'll post up (hopefully) everyday about the decisions and choices I make for my alt account, in hopes of showing people how to rush properly, and to dispel the myth that rushing requires a ton of activity and dedication,…
