How to Get League Shop Coins in Clash of Clans

You want to get your hands on League Shop Coins in Clash of Clans, right? The short answer is that you primarily earn these valuable coins, also known as League Medals, by joining and actively participating in Clan War Leagues (CWL). It's a special monthly event where your clan battles other clans.
Getting League Shop Coins, or League Medals, is a key part of progressing quickly in Clash of Clans. These special coins let you buy some of the best items in the game that can instantly boost your village or troops. Unlike gold or elixir, you can't just raid for them - you have to earn them through clan teamwork.
How to Get League Medals
Here's how you can make sure you're earning as many League Medals as possible:
- Join an Active Clan and the Clan War League (CWL): This is the most important step. League Medals are *only* earned through the Clan War League, which happens once a month. Your clan leader or a co-leader needs to sign up your clan, and then put you on the roster to participate.
- Participate in Wars: Once you're on the roster, you'll fight in 7 wars over 7 days against other clans. You get one attack per war day. The more stars you earn in your attacks, the more medals you personally receive. Even if you score 0 stars, being on the roster still gets you 20% of the possible medals.
- Help Your Clan Win: Your clan's overall performance matters a lot. The higher your clan ranks in its league at the end of the week, the more League Medals everyone on the roster gets. Clans in higher leagues (like Champion League) also earn way more medals than those in lower leagues (like Bronze).
- Earn Bonus Medals: Clan leaders and co-leaders have a limited number of bonus League Medals they can give out to deserving players after the CWL ends. Often, they give these to players who performed really well, got important stars, or were very active and helpful. I remember one season when I pulled off a clutch 3-star attack on the last day, which helped my clan win that war and secure a higher spot. My leader noticed and gave me some bonus medals - it felt great to be recognized!
- Complete the Tutorial: If you're new to Clan War Leagues, you'll get 50 free League Medals just for completing the tutorial. It’s a nice little head start!
What to Spend Your League Medals On
Once you've collected some League Medals, you can spend them in the League Shop, located in your Home Village. This shop has some of the most powerful items in the game:
- Magic Hammers: These are the superstars of the League Shop. There are Hammers for Building, Fighting (troops), Spells, and Heroes. When you use a Magic Hammer, it instantly completes an upgrade without needing any resources or waiting time. This can save you days or even weeks of upgrade time! Just remember, you can only buy each type of hammer once every seven days.
- Potions: You can buy various potions like Training Potions (speeds up troop training), Resource Potions (boosts resource production), Research Potions (speeds up lab research), and Builder Potions (speeds up builder construction).
- Resources and Wall Rings: Need a quick boost of Gold or Elixir for an upgrade? The League Shop has you covered. You can also buy Wall Rings, which instantly upgrade a section of your walls.
- Exclusive Items: The shop also features special statues, decorations, and even Hero Skins to customize your village and heroes. When I first started playing, I always saved up for the Magic Hammers because skipping those long upgrade times was a game-changer. It took a while, but getting that first Hammer of Heroes felt like a huge win, letting me jump my Barbarian King up a level instantly without tying up my Dark Elixir.
