Upgrading the Town Hall and climbing up League Tiers in Clash of Clans is a major part of in-game progression. The title has eight league tiers: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Crystal, Master, Champion, Titan, and Legend Leagues. Climbing them requires collecting Trophies earned solely via multiplayer battles.

Since you can lose Trophies if an enemy successfully raids your village, fortifying a base with maxed-out defenses and walls plays a key role in climbing up League Tiers.

But what are the advantages and disadvantages of climbing up League Levels? And how to quickly collect Trophies in Clash of Clans? Read on to find out the answers to these questions.

What are the pros and cons of climbing up League Levels in Clash of Clans?

You must collect a fixed number of Trophies to reach a certain League Level in Clash of Clans. Doing so rewards you with a loot bonus appropriate to your League level when you successfully perform an attack in a multiplayer raid.

Moreover, the League Level determines where you stand in the Clan Wars and Clan War Leagues, affecting the number of rewards you receive in these tournaments.

On the downside, reaching a high League Tier pits you against more experienced gamers in multiplayer raids, making it difficult to three-star their base and withstand their attacks. This issue is exacerbated when a high-league-tier player participates in Clan Wars and Clan War Leagues.

Reaching the top tier, Legend League, in Clash of Clans entails another disadvantage: You can perform only eight multiplayer raids in a day. Moreover, at this league level, you aren't allowed to choose the enemy village you wish to attack while matchmaking, and you must attack the base you are pitted against or surrender, which wastes one attack but doesn't reduce the Trophy count.

Therefore, it's advised that before upgrading Town Hall and climbing the Trophy Tier, you should max out the village and enhance your attack strategy by upgrading troops and Army Camps.

How to collect Trophies like a pro in Clash of Clans

The best way to collect Trophies and quickly rank up in COC Leagues is by exacting revenge. After an enemy attacks your village, you can head to the in-game section, which shows recent activities.

In this section, you will see the Revenge icon. Tap it, and it will pit you against the enemy who recently attacked your village. Three-starring such enemy bases can yield a whopping sum of 40 to 50 Trophies.
