O truth n I agree. Was jus speaking generally. N answer to ur question is broad as it depends on ur clan skill lv, roster, etc

hmm.. here I was holding out hope that someone had a link to some statistical war win / loss averages kind of details over the whole of the server.
// and sorry for the mis quote. harmless mistake - hopefully you understood my intent as far as the greater topic was concerned.
How often do clans win and loose?
How hard should it be for a town hall 11 to 3 star another town hall 11? (or any th vs their proper mirror)
How should wars be matched?
whats considered an engineer?
too many questions that can never be answered unless supercell developers actually speak up... but we all know that will - never- happen...
I'm more in agreement with Rachel on this one. I always thought a .5 base was a base that was maxed at the previous townhall. From what I'm reading some of you saying a .5 base is, it's nothing more than a rusher imo. Not a clueless rushers, just an impatient player looking to go up a townhall without finishing the actual townhall they're working on.
My personal definition of a 9.5:
A base with defensive weight higher than a maxed th8, at least 1 war army comp at th10 levels with both royals above level 5.
My personal definition of a rushed th10:
A base that has all war army compositions below th10 levels.
My personal definition of a fresh th10:
A base that has all th9 war armies maxed and is in process of upgrading his army to th10 levels.
There's not many of them out there, however. I reckon in my clan only about half actually do 30/30 royals at TH9, and we encourage high heroes and almost always out-royal our opponents. IIRC our current enemy has 14 TH10s (including numerous non-inferno ones) and I don't think they have a single one with 30/30+ heroes.
Most people seem to be using x.5 to mean pretty much any non-inferno TH10 these days.
While I agree there is not many, I've personally watched 3 clan members do it within the last year or so. These three guys have been with the clan from the beginning, 3 years give or take. My clan must think more like yours, we'd rather be on the hero side of the advantage.
As a respected member on the forum, a former game specialist and an invited guess by SC to Helsinki, I would expect you to understand that: the ability to see target's attacks, cc, base layout and above all, ability to replicate bases and FC non stop, would give the hunter huge advantages that will dwarf any mm mismatch that a clan will ever see.
Rachel, you need to put a leash on this one. It's statements like this that harms the reputation of your clan. I understand it's cool within your intercircle, but to the masses, it's nothing more than a child like statement. It's like me saying, yeah, I can lift a car up with one hand, but only because I'm wearing my superman cape.
Why is it so hard for you to admit a 9.5 is a 10 with at least full max def & offense 9 (including heroes) and no inferno?
That's been the definition in this forum for the longest time.
Lets call things properly the way they are, seriously this is why many people get confused down the road.
PS. Gee Onix that down rep was an under the belt, can't even disagree with you really?!
Lol think they already harmed clans rep js. Am I jus hating? Look thru both their profiles n c for urself. Full of contradictions, hypocrisy, n false claims. Alot of "hate" on them was brought upon due to their actions. I call it "facts" not "hate" tho. Either way doesn't make any of them evil bad people. They r jus different. One credit I can give them tho, they do help keep the forums interesting place to visit. They r entertainin n no harm being done by them posting here. Was jus sorry to hear some of their members got banned. Words r jus that. Words. No harm no foul. Not like it can kill u. I understand forums is place where formality n respect is to b enforced. Understandably so too but I personally dont c any problems wit banter if ur actions dictate it as long as it isnt racist,sexist, personal, etc. Thats jus me tho. Apparently many in forums have thin skins n gets offended easily. Shrug
by definition, and excluding ties, the "average clan" wins 50% of its wars. That's because one clan must lose, and one clan must win. This is a mathematical certainty. Making up, out of whole cloth, relative shares of the community and assigning them particular play styles does nothing to refute that.
You're right, ya got me there.
I forgot th8 and under don't have cool down on FC.
Guess even SC figured they weren't really relevant to any real kind of war.
Kinda makes you wonder what all the fuss is about.
And of course, OK, they got your spin time and lineup/BD. What the hell they going to match you with?
Magic up a full set of identical uber-engineered bases? Splash $1k+ each base gemming them from scratch?
So, point still partially standing, what on earth (or Mars) do you have to fear from a hunt?
O btw wasnt it u who cited I violated forum rules bc I commented on my thread that was old? I couldnt comment bc I was temp banned from here lol. Yet my fav mod lol closed my thread but u dont c me crying over it do u? I didnt make a single inquiry bc idc even tho imo it was unjust but is all good. Think im making excuses? Check out the thread urself. I did make a post relevant to my thread after my ban lol but still got closed. Lol jus as silly as it was fo u to make a post stating I violated a rule (maybe even reported it?) It would b silly of me to cry bout unjust closing of my thread. I jus accepted it n moved on. No harm no foul. If im being biased, u r wc to look at my closed thread n c fo urself. =)
I just wished you guys/ladies would call it like it is. Quit the mind power stuff and just say we dominate because we're the best ever. I'd take arrogance over child like statements any day. I understand sitting at the top brings hate, but some, possibly a lot of it comes from the ridiculous statements checkmate has said.
^this.
and absolutely this. Say it like it is.
"Our engineering skills and ability to deduce the matchmaker are unrivaled, and it has allowed us to string together and obscene number of mostly easy wins and build the games highest win streak."
quit with the "Martian mind power" nonsense, stop pretending you're not engineers, or that you're matchups are by and large "fair" with both sides having an equal chance of winning. Own your math prowess, admit what you are. I actually respect that.
The trolling? Not so much...
But any clan that would challenge #6M would probably need to be mostly TH10+ engineered bases. Many #6M bases have level 13 or higher point defences, even the ones I guess are fighting TH7s or 8s. There's no way the enemy could replicate #6M bases using TH8s.
Would you as a war leader go to war if you only have a 50% chance to win?
Losers starts a war with that odds.
A great war leader starts a war only when he is confident to win.
"Hey, clan mates, im not adding mr king to the war, because he is so good that we probably win it. Im adding this mr loser, then both clans have equal chance of winning, and thats fair, we love fair, dont we?"

Or, hey guys we don't win alot of wars but guess what. If we surge offence way ahead of defence we can attack TH9's with wardens. Don't worry about learning to properly raid, no need with this "strategy". I know we all stink but who cares, we deserve big streaks too darn it!
See, propaganda works both ways and is seldom based on reality.
FTR. 9.5 is exactly as it sounds. 9.5 was coined as you are only working on half the base (the offense). If you have all th9 defenses in place and go to th10 and only work on offense, you are essentially a 9.5. Once you place the first defense from th10, that graduates from 9.5 to new 10.
My understanding of course.
In real war, yes. However, in game, many people want to have an even match at the start, because it is more fun to them to have the outcome determined by the attacking and designing skill of the players, rather than their knowledge of how to take advantage of the matchmaker. Others like the challenge of taking advantage of the matchmaker better than their opponent, even if it means the match itself is the most exciting part of the war since much of the time there is no chance for the other team to win after that match is found.
Again, this has nothing to do with the question I'm asking the other poster, the one who said any base not maxed or close to maxed is engineered.
Out trend is were getting harder matchups post update, we run lots of .5s and a 9.11 or 2. Ro early to tell but for me their has been a move slightly towards parity, possibly.

Why is it called Martian mind power?
Why isn't it Gay power?
What does it say when respected forumers (even acknowledged by ur clanmate) make light jokes/banter on yall? Dont think they meant any harm. Jus pokin fun at some of yall claims n tryin to pass them off as being realistic when we all kno the truth. Some of us cant b blamed for havin some light banter wit yall as yall do same with ur troll posts. What did u expect from the claims yall make? Its one thing if its jus joking around but to say something so outlandish n try to make it seem realistic....do yall really expect no light banter back? If its truly something yall dont like than dont make claims that is obviously distorted when its obvious we all know the truth. Give some forumers some credit on intelligence lv n logic instead of downplayin it. Its no wonder y quite a few make light hearted jokes on y'all n no one to blame but urselves for it. Adult up to reactions to ur actions. Lol I kno I do. I get trolled bc of my writin style...I accept it. I got banned...I accept it. I understand its simply a reaction to my actions n I man up to em instead of cryin sayin fault is all urs n not mine. Friendly advice. =) if u find some of these posts r unsavory to u than perhaps it is time to reassess how yall act here. Js. Gl!

How about those clans that are just loosing every war they fight?
Heck I know a few that loose on purpose... one in particular made it a goal to reach level 10 perks without ever winning a war.. lol
- No reason to bicker about facts and statistics when there are none publicly available to use as a reference and no easy way to prove anything...
I just started this comment because I dislike when people state facts / or opinions that are not based on fact... especially if they say it like they are stating facts.
Facts can be proven.
Dismiss the Martian power as you wish, but this is one of the main ingredients of our success. Since we don't have skill as many of you have pointed out, and engineering can be easily copied, what do you think separates us from the rest? A couple of smart forumers understood that power, but the rest...well they can keep looking for the holy grail...
Skrag:
be patient, our newsletter is coming up shortly in September at the 400 wins streak, if we can keep it going. We will also have a surprise.
Got our second war since the update. 30 minutes search. On the surface, it looks like one of those head scratcher mismatches we sometimes get vs engineered clans.
Us: #1: TH9 offense (our top offense), with teenager heroes and 62K defense weight.
Them: #1: TH10 offense, with teenager heroes, 87K defense weight. Their #2 and #3, are both with TH9 offense and 66K defense weight. In addition, they have 2 TH11s with TH11 war troops upgraded (one with warden), lurking at #4 and #7. Enemy is on a 6 wins streak.
However, upon further analysis, we still conclude it is fair match, considering the rest of our roster and the fact enemy also put 5 low TH fillers at the bottom that can't do anything to our lowest base. It seems like enemy tried to roster engineering but it backfired.
Next war, we will try with our regular roster by putting one or two TH11 anchors in to see what we get in the MM.
Both searches my clan has had since the new matchmaker was put in place have taken about 5 minutes and both matchups have been pretty even.
We just finished our second post-update matchup. we are heavily engineered (defenseless 11 with 45/45/20, 10.5 with max, 9.5 with max, etc). Both wars we've had were against heavily engineered clans with very similar lineups to ours. New matchmaking appears to be very fair.
Sounds good! I look forward to it. I have nothing but respect for what you have achieved, and I'm sure you and your clan mates (who visit the forum) know this. Good luck to you!:thumbsup:
That being said, needs must sometimes etc. Give my regards to Tango!:smirk:
