uh... we're getting a new troop, this wasn't the sneak peek...

I'm guessing this th10/th11 defense boost is made with a future troop(s) in mind, and that SC is already trying and testing it out, not sure if putting the defense buff before the new troop is wise but it's what is about to be done.

Love the reduced spell cook time. Seems like good balancing and it all makes sense.

Town Hall 10+ Changes

• Inferno Tower Multi-mode acquires new targets faster
Offense nerf / defense buff

• Town Hall 10 and 11 players are less likely to find each other in Multiplayer
Now that more players have progressed to Town Hall 11, we can make adjustments to matchmaking that will result in less TH11/10 matchups. Note that players in Champion league and above will not be affected.
Small offense nerf

Town Hall 9+ Changes

• All Skeleton hitpoints reduced
Witch nerf

• Skeletons spawned from Witches no longer trigger traps
Witch nerf

• Goblin level 6 has been moved to Town Hall 9 (was TH10)
Small offense buff for TH 9 only

• X-Bow levels 2-4 damage increased
Offense nerf / defense buff

Town Hall 8+ Changes

• Valkyrie damage increased, hitpoints decreased
• Valkyrie starts attacking much faster after reaching her target - give her a try!
Small offense buff

• Wizard Tower levels 5-9 hitpoints increased, greatly increased at later levels
Offense nerf / defense buff

• Defending Troops (but not Heroes) flee from Poison Spells if they are standing idle
Offense nerf / defense buff

Town Hall 5+
• All Dark Spells brewing time decreased to 10 minutes
• All Elixir Spells brewing time decreased to 20 minutes
Doesn't matter at all, if we have to wait +1 hour for heroes.

All levels:

• Battle time limit reduced to be 3 minutes per attack once again
Small offense nerf / defense buff

Well... With all these nerfs to offense, I don't know how I'm gonna attack at TH11. I hope the new troop(s) is/are gonna be powerful enough, and there are gonna be new troop levels. Otherwise, it's gonna be hard to attack. For me at least.

90% of the gems I buy in this game go towards hero upgrade time.

:( so no cw until everyone in my clan is done with heroes:facepalm:

First how did you get the info about the nerf ?

As for my opinion, I find it good the way it is, no need to nerf a poison spell.

Wow ! The discussion is still continuing ?

This is intense. So much to figure out. I normally report back to my clan with my takes. This time I just have to send them to the source.

The higher you are, the harder it is to find an open revenge, in the lower trophy range the loot bonus is terrible :/
