Note I said growing strong and not fast To grow strong you have to have people you can trust. This is how to do it. Find a clan that is active in cc and does many ebs (I joined Born the Best to do this) and join it. You might grow fast or slow at this point because it depends if your very active or kinda active. When you join the clan do the ebs and USE CC!!! This is important. In my clan people use cc to say I was farmed. Use cc to have conversations and have relationships with the other members. Follow the admins and the owner and talk to them once in a while. Give a suggestion or two but don't be a noob. As you gain that clans trust also keep up in the ebs. Keep on earning money. Use this money to buy allies and and buildings. You want to have more allies than buildings because they give you a plunder bonus. Buy an even build(I didn't because I didn't know about it then) which is buying atta building and def buildings evenly. This should keep the money going and should help you in farming situations. I hope this is good, I spent 20 min writing this so pls use it. Post comments below.
Buying atk and def buildings evenly is fairly pointless for a few reasons. 1)You lose two hits on an OSF, and 2) one atk building plus one def building has less atk and def than two balanced ones
You might want to put a whole lot more effort into the next one, nice try though. And balanced between spy and troops also helps when you need to fight, as well as plunder. Have at least one balaced building so you get more hits per unload.
Actually, balanced builds get messed the **** up in war. They're usually the last to be stripped tho.
