I'd say these are both baseless toxic statements and completely without merit.

One side accuses/ blames the other of buffs/nerfs.

Same with who spends and why. Often see the cliches like war guys gem heros and pushers boost and buy shields in addition to them all hemming put new troops/levels.

All pretty stereotyped nonsense IMO.

Im not sure why so may assume the answer provided by staff indicates they're catering to one side or another save that it mentions leader boards.

Seems no one is having fun at 10/11 whether they are push or war.

Hey SC, here's a secret. No one but .00001% of your players care about the Leaderboards. Haven't you learned NOTHING from the December debacle? Leaderboards already lost its value long time ago.

I posted what I thought would be the answers in the questions thread 3 weeks ago and to be fair they aren't much different from what I posted.

I still think they gave solid answers relative to prior q&a rounds.

Would doubling or tripling league bonuses in higher leagues make people care about pushing trophies?

They are yes. It's stil got a hint of the 'heavily edited lawyered up' feel to it, but the content is significantly more than before. Either in previous Q&As, or communication in general that precedes the big reveal of sneak peeks.

Let's spell it out for you all, for those less gifted in the inference department:

GW will NOT come to th10. (That's the easy bit).

There will be little offence improvement at th10-11, to (pointlessly IMO, but that's another story) attempt to keep some defensive balance in MP.
They did say looking at it a little, so expect some, but nothing like the (wonderful IMO) pre-October miner/bowler 3* viable wars.

There will be new content, NOT just building levels, which can't be absolutely classified as a completely new game mode (as per Lach's comments).
So....its some kind of extension/branching off of an existing game mode then.


See? It actually says a lot, certainly by SC's usual standards.

Im speculating that th10 will receive an offensive buff and th11 will probably receive a defensive buff to counter that. They seem to be trying to keep th11 difficult....but i could be wrong

No. What is the point in pushing when your base is not fully maxed out? I am quite sure the biggest group of people playing this game are farmers and warrers. Plus I am quite sure the biggest group of people do not give 2 turds about getting higher in trophies. Sure it is a cool shield, but that novelty wears of very, VERY quickly once you got it. If you read up on what is being done by people in the top to stay at the top, the incentive is even less.

The problem is, SC still has the idea that pushing is the way the game should be played. I really would like to know if that idea is money based or some developers original idea. The first I despise but can understand. The latter is utterly dumb and shortsighted.

Haha it took them like 3 months to answer these 3 questions and answer to first one couldn't be any vague! I wish I was an European and could enjoy the most laid back lifestyle. I'm guessing, the dev team lead of CR is not European?
