Agreed. I did some quick data crunching and since yesterday, TH 6 has made up nearly 50% of my available matches. Why the heck are they even matching a TH6 up with a TH9 anyway?Quote:

Matches are based on trophy level (unless you are under 200, where they're by town hall level). Trophy inflation may have raised the trophy levels for lower level players. You may need to raise your trophy levels to find higher level matches.Quote:

Yup at 1250/1300Quote:

Right now to find the most DE, you need to be around your TH 8/9 counterparts for best looting results. Farmers or intentional droppers aside, they don't normally live at 1600 trophies.
With the top players around 3800 trophies, and 9 TH levels, you could make an assumption that as your TH gets higher, your base should get better and thus... have more trophies. 1600 cups isn't even half way through the trophy scale at the moment. I wouldn't expect the top 1/9th of the possible villages to be hanging around in less than the lower 1/2 of the trophy range.
So yes, I think a lot of players have decided to up their trophies. The looting mechanics were not changed.
A few more from today

Loads?
I'm not sure why there's even a dispute about this topic.Quote:

People keep posting pics of great raids since the patch. Sure, they can still happen if you get lucky and the matchmaking pairs you with someone as soon as their shield wears off (for me, revenges generally lead to the best raids). But they happen far less frequently ever since the patch. Anyone who has been playing regularly knows that it costs far more to find a decent village to raid now. Before, if I spent 5k gold (at TH7) to find a target i would have been surprised. Now, I find that I am spending 10K gold regularly for very mediocre targets.
I don't think increasing loot is the solution. I think that as the excitement wears off and people play less, or as people get their builders working on lengthy upgrades, loot will creep up. For now, though, I think that raiding is generally unproductive across the non-gemming board.
