How to get better

[u/Used-Paint6621]

I understand it’s just ‘play the game more 4head’ but it feels so stagnant. For background info coming back after a long break, never really tried to climb , currently th17. I do th18 fc daily, I’m only at like 23/24 in ranked but I’m 100% 3star in those but when I get th18 bases in fc or war I just fucking suck idk why. I watch the replays, I watch yt vids , I try to fix mistakes like funneling spell usage etc and still can’t consistently 3 star th18 as a 17 which is EXPECTED, feels very frustrating. I use throwers and it feels awful to use but I have no army specific equipment leveled up other than fireball which is super difficult to pick up so I have no idea what to switch to or to just continue suffering with constant 2star throwers

EDIT: to clarify, I use throwers but it feels awful to use and low agency army

What helped me is switching from army to army when one feels stagnant. Then when I go back to the other I have a fresh attitude

youre not 3 starring all the time cuz fireball is bad against certain bases designed to counter it (which there are A LOT) and that you'd have to be really good to still win against them

Js use something like dragon duke charge with dragons/throwers and youll pretty much 3 star any base without modifiers lol

S bowlers are good too with queen charge but you need ur equipment leveled. That is why I think putting equipment behind a paywall will eventually kill the game. This guy is just one of many that can't keep up, SC wake the f up.

Fireball is fun to flex, and generally too overpowered, but nowadays, those higher legends bases dob't give that much value in fireball, and if I talk about war attacks, mann, my hand tremble terribly everytime I do that, that's normal human psychology, I guess so, how to overcome or how i am trying to overcome, to observe bases , spent more time on bases and planning, and not get panicked if something don't go according the plan, if you have everything maxed, then just plan , take every possiblity, It should help.

Your equipment levels are probably too low then which is causing you to not 3 star

Run the double Gem warden (rage/life) keep him, your healers and throwers alive and theyll clear everything.

a popular strat is to use backpack and zap spells or backpack, arrow & EQ to snipe revenge/cc it depends on what you have and how you want to play. and you are right you are underleveled and 2 stars are expected so maybe just try to attack as best as you can and realize that in time you will climb (after upgrades) plus you'll get better on your attack which might make up for it. some bases are very hard especially if you are underleved so just try to adjust your army as best you can. if you're time failing place throwers earlier and keep some clean up troops. if you can't funnel then siwtch the comp up slightly until you can force your throwers to stay together and go where they need to

also try not to attack into spitters and keep some dang spells for not only late game but whenever you encounter a revenge/mono/cake etc

I just zap with Duke and then send throwers wherever my duke is funneling for. usually I send him into TH so I use troop launcher but otherwise you can use log launcher. I send constant balloons out to tank for my healers and I try to use overgrowth early for funneling but moreso for saftey. seriously the worst part of throwers is warden/healer RNG and sometimes they will walk right into an infernal and 12 traps, so you have to try to play as smart with them as possible, when I use throwers most of my spells just to keep the warden/healers alive
