How To Earn Trophies
The Basics about Trophy Pushing
In general, when we talk about Trophy Pushing (or also Trophy Hunting) It’s all about earning trophies and climbing through Leagues. In most cases, a Trophy Pusher uses more expensive armies, ignores the loot and only attacks a base that will reward at least 1 Star for Trophies.

Is Trophy Pushing only for TH11 end game Clashers?
No. Trophy Pushing has several motivations:
Improve skills with serious attacking strategies (to be more successful in Clan War)
Setting up a personal record in the Player Info Tab
Earn the Achievements for the extra Gems to get an additional Builder
Reach a higher League to earn a better League Bonus for farming
You see that most of the reasons for Trophy Pushing are aiming to almost all Clashers.
How does Trophy Pushing work?
Simple spoken, it’s earning more Trophies than you lose. In this post, I want to show you some tricks you should use to reach your goal faster and also link some related guides that will get deeper into particular topics.
Trophy Pushing Step-by-Step to enter the League of your dreams
We will have to look at the offense and defense perspective separately, and I will share my personal experience about pushing Cups with you.
Trophy Pusher Attacking Strategy
I already mentioned that you will have to earn more Trophies than you lose – and at a certain point most of your attacks will not be successful. The defensive part is the next chapter, but you have to be aware that you have to attack a lot. First of all, you need a strategy that you feel comfortable with and also, very important, have troops that are very much upgraded. Depending on your Town Hall Level, I recommend one of these compositions:
Trophy Pushing Town Hall 8 and lower
The first time when you push you will go for the Master League to get the Achievement for the extra Gems that will help you get another Builder. Being a Town Hall 8 or lower, you can push easily without an expensive army and you will 3 Star a lot.
The best attacking strategy I recommend you use is with Giants and Healers
If you’re looking for an attacking style that is very fast and allows you to attack multiple time during a session you can also use the old-fashioned BARCH
Trophy Pushing Town Hall 9
I recommend using air attacks because many other TH9 player haven’t upgraded their Air Defenses and are a very easy target
If you’re not a huge fan of air attacks or maybe your air troops aren’t upgraded enough to use, you can also make good progress with the old-fashioned GoWiPe
I know there are other 3 Star strategies out there like GoHo, etc., but they require deeper scouting and are not required to trophy push.
Trophy Pushing Town Hall 10 & Town Hall 11
The easiest way is using either Bowlers or Valkyrie attacks. They are created quickly for quite a fair price and you have the possibility to 2-Star and 3-Star a lot.
It’s always a question of your personal favor.
My recommendation is that you start using an attacking strategy and then use it exclusively instead of switching around a lot. You will get better in scouting and performing the attack with each time you use it and this makes it much easier for you long-term.
Work with shields and attacks
Everyone has different schedules – some can do frequent attacks during the day, others can only attack in the morning once and a couple of times during the evening. It’s critical that you start using attacks as often as possible – scouting plus attacking takes about 5-7 minutes, it’s often possible to do attacks, even if you’re busy during the day!
Keep the motivation up
Trophy Pushing can be hard sometimes and it’s easy to lose focus. Let me help you with some motivation that might keep up your focus
Set yourself small goals, like winning a certain amount of attacks each day. From my experience, don’t set yourself goals like gaining 30 cups per day, because then you might go for an attack to fulfill that goal and might screw up the attack.
It’s always your primary goal to NOT lose an attack. Gaining only a few trophies from a secure attack is better than losing a lot by going after a base that will reward a lot of trophies!
Defending and Trophy Pushing
Using a Trophy Base is very important! You need to protect your Stars as much as possible, even if you know you will lose most of the attacks after having passed a certain point in Trophies.
Many use a Anti-3-Star War Base designs for pushing, which is not perfect!
A Trophy Base Design has the possibility to sometimes win a defense!
A War Base Design always tries to prevent getting 3-Stared!
This is very important! When your trophy base defends successfully, you will make up for some lost defenses. Only protecting the 3rd Star is rewarding less in total.
Don’t worry if you lose some defenses as long as there are some in between that you haven’t lost. Good Trophy Base Layouts can maintain a certain trophy count, more or less. That Point is called the Breaking Point.
Don’t forget to request defending Clan Castle troops before you end a session (or after an attack). Clan Castle troops can make the difference in defending trophies!
Conclusion
Trophy Pushing is nothing you do in a couple of days. If you’re doing it, for whatever reason you do it, you first have to be aware that it requires a lot of time.
Setting yourself daily goals helps a lot – Just set something that is realistic, like “today I will gain 10 Stars” or “I want to win 3 attacks every day”. The most important thing is that these goals are realistic because not being able to hit them will be negative motivation.
Good luck with pushing and have fun!
