I disagree. A good base should not let you be 80+ % 2 stars anyway.Quote:

Agreed. If anyone needs the extra 30 seconds it would probaly be th10 and/or th11.Quote:

Giving th 10&11 more but not anything else a Dumb idea, unless your thinking th10&11 can no longer attack bases lower them th10...
I don't think th9s need it, I never had a problem at 9 with time (well rarely...maybe once or twice but that was it).
Th10 and 11...that's another story. Past 4 war atracks I finished with 1-5 seconds left and I rushed those attacks, they were close... I don't need it but I think most people do....especially if you (SC) want to see some creative attacks. Now maybe 30 seconds is to much but 15 might be perfect, it would still push the elite players and keep it challenging and it would help the casual players out and give them a better chance at tripling (and let's be honest, this game is more fun when you triple).
Also the whole "what if the th10 or 11 drops and attacks a th9" arguement is silly....if a 10 or 11 attacks a th9 its goin th to be a 3 star no matter what...an 11 could barch (plain old barch) a 9 for 3 and a 10 could gibarch for the same... Time has nothing to do with it.
I think they could have balanced th 9 better by buffing the Xbows OR nerfing valk HP OR nerfing witches OR buffing wizard towers OR shaving 30 seconds off the clock. Doing all those things at once brought us back to the dark ages where two star attacks were the norm at town hall 9. The changes to poison I do understand because people were abusing the 2x poison (myself included).
We have had two 100% wars and two 29-30 star wars since update. 3 minutes is plenty of time. Save 2 wizards until very end to clean up those stray buildings. The 3 stars will come with a little more practice.
What about the 99% 1 stars - give them 2 extra stars?Quote:

even th10 doesnt need +30 seconds lol. Maybe even th11 doesnt need that, with that core strike under invulnerability and saving lots of troops. Not sure about th11 yet.
Only attacks that can be 3 stars with additional, 30 seconds - are badly planned but lucky 2 star raids. Where player plans everything to get into the core and next no planing, sometime by luck bunch of wizards or\and queen will stick behind 1-2 golems still alive and go through all base to kill building one by one, and with additional 30 seconds can make it in time.
But thats bad attack, it shouldnt be 3 star. Normal 3 star attack it where player plans all raid, he knows what to do in ending of attack to finish base and does not relay on some luck.
Any th9 base can be 3 stared in 2, 2-30 with nice planned hit. Only some lucky "spam troops to core" type of hits can suffer from -30s.
For th10 bases its even funnier, most of hits will end long before 3 minutes too, because of all troops will be dead before 3 mins. But stil possible to plan 3 star hit, most of them will end before 3m too.
The thing is your troop have only so much total HP, to 3 star you need to make wide hit that will clear up a lot of point defences at the same time the faster the better, because the more time you spend on raid the less hp you army will have left. And th10 base has a lot of damage. +30 seconds wont help in most cases.

It's true that the extra 30 seconds helped attacks that would have failed before triple but I don't see that as a problem. With 3:00 if you screw up you might as well just quit but with 3:30 you could actually recover and improvise a new attack (I mean usually it still fails but it's fun to watch and keeps it exciting)
I personally think the best idea would be. Th1-9 3:00 minutes and th10 and 11 3:15 (3:30 might have been a little to much especially with Queen walks)
