The first question is:

What are the pros and cons of rushing Town Hall?

Pros:

• You can farm the maximum amount of loot with the shortest playing time.
• You can 3 stars other players who spend longer time than you for developing their villages. This is such a great advantage in Clan Wars due to the weight of rushed bases.

• Better resource management with cheap upgrades alongside expensive upgrades.
• …

Cons:

• A lot of players find that fixing rushed base is really boring. Most of them want to start a another one.

Things you need to know about Rushing Town Hall

You can’t protect your loot

That’s right. You can’t. But as a normal player, that amount of loot can’t affect your progress because it is much smaller than the number you get farm after a few raids. If you can’t save loot for a big upgrade, you should scroll down to the walk-through section. Always break the shield when you have time for farming couples of raids.

You should stay at  Gold I or  Crystal III, where people care about your Town Hall. By placing it outside, you can always get the instant shield. You shouldn’t stay at leagues where people don’t care about your trophies much ( Silver leagues, Gold III,…). If you always get wrecked, go to  Master leagues (by using this troll base, normally it takes just about 1 days) place your Town Hall outside, farm by sniping Town Hall and focus on lower TH level targets.

Loot penalty will hurt you

This is one of the hardest things for all players in Clash of Clans. But there is no reason for you to attack the lower villages. The higher TH you attack, the more loot you can raid. Don’t mourn some Spells for getting 200k Elixir.

Rushed Town Hall and Clan War

In fact, the Town Hall can’t affect the Clan War matchmaking and your position in the War. It is because of the exclusive defense buildings of each Town Hall level like X-Bow at TH9 or Inferno Tower at TH10. Don’t either build the new defense buildings (evenWalls) or unlock new troops If you want to join Clan War at the starting stage. In short, If you can 3 stars your own base, you are ready for Clan Wars!

Maybe your base can easily get 3 starred in the Clan Wars. But that’s totally OK because offense win the War, not defense. In Clan War, attackers always want to get at least 2 stars when raiding the same TH level player. As a rushed Town Hall, you can save 1-2 stars or even more for your Clan because some higher level THs of the opponent Clan will attack you. That is a big advantage to rush your Town Hall!

To be a successful farmer

As i said above, the loot that you can lose is just a small number, you can take it back after 1 raid. All you need to be a successful farmer is attacking more than 2 times before you log off again. In fact, you just need to farm about 100k  a day (Collectors will do the rest) to make your Laboratory working till the end. If you don’t have much time to wait for full army, go to Master league and you can

Is rushing TH risky?

If there is no way to recover your account after rushing, yes, it is risky. Never go to new Town Hall when you don’t have maxed level farming troops and Collectors.

Walk-through for rushing Town Hall

There are a lot of opinions about rushing in Clash of Clans but all in all your farming skill must match the progression of your village, this is the key for earning all the advantages of rushing Town Hall.

Normally, all Town Hall levels have this upgrade order:

Spell Factory/Laboratory/Clan Castle~> Army Camps ~> Heroes ~> Barracks and Dark Barracks ~> Defenses ~> Collectors.

Follow these suggestions:

• Always rearm your traps and defenses otherwise you will lose much more loot than the number you use for rearming.
• Find a good farming base at Clash of Clans Layouts.
• Don’t break shield If you can’t farm more than 2 times before you log off.

Town Hall 1 ~> 6

This is the easiest part of Clash of Clans. Just keep upgrading your Town Hall and storages nonstop. Upgrade other buildings whenever you want. Before Town Hall 6, farming with just only Barbarians is the most effective and efficient strategy. Don’t forget to upgrade Archers, Barbarians and Wall Breakers nonstop for farming when you at Town Hall 7.

Town Hall 7

Once you hit Town Hall 7, you can build the final Barrack. With 4 Barracks, Barch is the best farming strategy for TH7. Now, you need to stop rushing a bit and complete the Laboratory upgrades. You should max out all Spells, farming troops and Dragons if you want to join the Clan Wars. You don’t need to care about Dark Elixir for upgrading Barbarian King, you can easily do that later. Keep upgrading your Barracks when you have loot.

If you want to start an alt account, I recommend rushing to Town Hall 7.

Town Hall 8 ~> 9  ~> 10

As almost Clash of Clans elite players suggest, you should stop rushing a bit when you hit Town Hall 8 because since TH8 the game is much harder. You should read 3 main guides for these highest TH levels in Clash of Clans for more suggestions, tips and tricks:

• Ultimate Town Hall 8 Guide
• Ultimate Town Hall 9 Guide
• Ultimate Town Hall 10 Guide

If you focus on Wars, the Town Hall 8.5 and 9.5 guide will be very helpful to you.
