You will be used to your builders sitting around with nothing to do and having overflowing elixir storages when you get to th9. All of that will change! The start of th9 is a killer, there are a lot of new buildings, loads of things to upgrade and two levels of walls. You will never have too much elixir again.
The first things to upgrade/build are: Archer Queen, Labratory, Spell Factory, Clan Castle.
Then I would start to focus on your offensive capabilities with: army camps, dark barracks and dark spell factory.
Followed by: 4th Air Defence and 4th Tesla to max th8 level.
Throughout this time it's good to get on with your walls too. By the end of th9 you will have 250 walls at level 10. Level 10 walls cost 3m to upgrade so the sooner that is started the better. Walls carry a huge intimidation factor, just think about when you raid. If I see a th9 with pink walls I'm going for it, I'll think twice about one with level 9/10 Lego/Lava walls.
Labratory upgrade order: Giants- you will need a lot of elixir and the Giants will get it for you, Hogs - many th9 war attacks involve hogs, Golems- used in lots of th9 war attacks and the difference at level 4 is incredible, then whatever else you use archers/balloons etc.
I tried to keep one builder free to upgrade my walls at all times. The greatest defence is not having any resources to steal! I also kept one permanently on upgrading my heroes.
TH9 takes a long time to complete. Even if you aren't planning on maxing everything you can expect to be here for at least 6 months so why rush?
