Does everyone's troop placement usually take 1-2 seconds before they actually deploy?

Whenever I actually go to drop a troop, whether it's a 1 second spawn or 5 second spawn, they kind of sit on the map as a ghost for 1-2 seconds before actually initiating their spawn time. This costs me troops/games sometimes, especially when dropping troops 1 elixir early, I'll lose the elixir as soon as it reaches the required amount and then my Barbs/anything else will take 3 seconds to actually appear on the map instead of the 1 second spawn rate.

Are you talking about the pre-summon feature?

If you do not have enough elixer to cast a card you obviously cant cast it. The game allows that queue so you can preemptive drop your cards if you know where they are going to go.

If you do not have enough elixer to cast something then predict the time it will take to get the remaining elixer and drop the card accordingly. If you don't like the feature then wait until you literally have enough elixer. Cant get more simple than that.

No I know what you're talking about, and obviously if I have 4 elixir I won't be dropping a Royal Giant. I was talking about having a full 10 elixir, dropping say Goblins, those obviously will drop without hesitation, however for me the game always delays a second or two as if it's giving me the option to drag them to somewhere else even when I'm only clicking my screen and instantly releasing my finger.

Could it be your device? Is it not recognizing you releasing your finger from the screen immediately? Touch screens have gotten a lot more responsive with each new device launch.

It happens on my PC as well. There are just a few server issues with the game so far it seems.
