Do something about 49%!!!!

To me at least, there are a lot of cases when I attack somebody and loose with just 49%... when I was just one building away... and I loose -20 trophies or even more. So I figured out a feature that might work. To have some sort of draw if you have at least 40% overall damege. If you have under 40%, starting from 39% overall damege you will steel loose trophies as usual. But if you have at least 40% you don't loose, but you don't win either. Instead, your screen shows that you got 0 trophies. After all in few times the person wich attacks you will loose (Unless he surrenders intentionaly) So this might or might not work depending on what you think, but at least consider doing something to decrease the times what you loos with 49%.

Then don't get 49% try to get 50%.

Lol. Whilst we disagree on clan perks, I think you have hit the nail on the head with this post. Very simple rules to this game OP. 50%= star. 49%= no star. Watch your replays and try to learn what you did wrong instead of asking for a fundamental change to the game. Anytime I fail an attack I can always see in my replay where I could’ve had better troop or spell placement or that I should’ve started on the other side of the base or whatever. But in the end, I know it’s my fault I failed, not the games.

Sometimes is just the problem of the time that ends, even though you had acted perfectly. Sometimes you just attack and than time ends, even though you KNEW THAT YOU WERE ABOUT TO GET 50%. So... don't tell me that this is my falut, because I only have controll over were I deploy troops, but not over the time.

If you are running out of time and only getting 49% then the fault is definitely in the attack. 99%? Maybe not. But 49% and running out of time? I’ve now heard it all.

Try to play better. Watch Clash of Clan YouTuber(s), read up on strategies or how to attack better. Look for bases with Town Halls closer to the wall or outside and hit them or hit lower than your Town Hall level. For example for raids in Town Hall 8 I use the same army I am comfortable with in multiplayer for example 16 Giants, 12 Wizards, 5 Wall Breakers, 41 Archers and 21 Barbarians. Look for different army compositions for war strategies and keep trying but they will never fix 49% that is up to you to fix.

Ah, but you have control over how fast you deploy your troops. Deploy them more quickly and you won’t run out of time.

LOL be a better attacker, or choose your bases more wisely. You have COMPLETE control, to suggest otherwise is a joke.

Eh ? It's totally your fault !! Deploy your troops faster if you're running out of time. How can deploying them slowly be anything other than your fault ?

Is this a joke?

that is like passing or failing a test... did you ask your professor to change your falling grade for a passing one just because you don't know who to pass...

I always deploy my troops fast enough and no, I am not joking. And we are here in this section to suggest ideas, not to suggest game strategy. I suggested an idea, if it's not good enough don't blame me.

Get better at attacking. Do not expect to get the bar lowered just because you do not have the skills.

Do you have any replays of these attacks where you run out of time at 49%, and if so, could you share them here ? Perhaps we may be able to help with what's going wrong as I'm sure it's not normal to have troops alive and run out of time before getting to 50%.

I'm curious, what TH level and what league? I am asking because you might be new and worrying way too much about trophies in the first place.

If you're trying to practice for war, then yeah, winning matters and it sounds like you have some work to do. If I'm trying to win, I rarely fail to win. It does happen, got my butt kicked just today on my TH10. Was mostly interested in getting the dark, failed to do that and failed to get a star too. Just a big fat nothing. I didn't look for something to blame, I fouled up. :)

Win or lose is often not the most important thing in farming/looting. I've done many attacks where winning wasn't even desired. Just getting the loot with a mass goblin raid that has no chance of winning.

I've seen Th5s worried about trophies and it's understandable but it's just way too early to worry about trophies.

49 percent draw? No. It's a loss.

Exactly. It has happened also on my end I wasn’t happy about it. Just learn from what you made a mistake in your last attack, and try to aim for the 50% or higher this time.

This is a discussion board. You posted your idea, and now others get the chance to discuss why it is, or is not, a good idea for the game. Since your idea dealt with strategy, ie., getting 50% is too hard and thus there needs to be a change, then you should expect people to discuss why strategically your idea is a hot mess.

This board isn't for people to hold hands and to sing kumbaya while agreeing with every idea. Almost every idea is going to have reasons for it not being fantastic, and reasons why it should not be implemented. That doesn't mean the idea won't be implemented, but the negatives to an idea are just as important, if not more so, than the benefits. This is why we have discussions.

You can literally face roll your device and get 40 %
