Clash of Clans Top Tips

by Paul Dousset

Supercell are the mega successful developers behind some of mobile gaming’s biggest hits. In 2013 they released Boom Beach, a military freemium MMO that has gone on to steadily remain in the top 15 of the charts since its debut. However crazily enough, their biggest hit to date is still 2012’s Clash of Clans, a game that brings in nearly $2.3 million a day.

Of course, there’s a reason they can bring in that much cash and it’s because players are forced to buy their way into winning battles. However, you can head over to Clash of Clans Wiki to get around all of that pesky freemium nonsense.

Clash of Clans Top Tips

1. Don’t waste money on high-tier troops

High-tier troops are fantastic for really powerful attacks. However, when you look at their cost in resources, their almost not even worth their cost in resources. Instead, you’ll be better served to use your resources for more lower-tired troops. The thought process here is that quantity is better than quality as they take less time to produce and are still fairly effective.

2. Be careful with your gems

Gems are an beautiful resource in Clash of Clans. Heck, when you begin the game you automatically get 500 of them. However, by the time you complete the tutorial, you’ve already gone through 50 of them by building structures. Instead, forget about the structures. Use those gems to add extra builders. Sure, you won’t be able to get builders 4 or 5, but you can get 3. This will really help you put together more buildings at once instead over waiting over a longer period of time.

3. Never spend all of your gold

Much like gems, try and save your gold. While we know that they will be burning a hole in your pocket, you should actually try and store them up. For example, gold is perfect for helping you skip past bases in matchmaking.
