Long delays/clouds due to clan games, barracks boost and 2 events

The clouds are due to...

-clan games starting
-1 gem boost of troops
-double event with discount troops

The only thing to do is have patience as both of the above are only temporary

Edit: added reason

Yes but you forgot there is also a double event on great for people to attack who doesn't love govalks?

There are solutions that work. Mostly They seem super harsh to the people who are causing the problem. Less attacks more defences inforced. And it has been said over and over.. Apply these things to legend league. However I now know legend league is not enough. It needs to be Titan too at least! In fact I think now it needs to be all leagues! Or else a reasonable alternative which gets you loot and no clouds should be provided. I expect everyone to cry and to be afraid and tell me no but I think its the truth whatever league it is the one below it will have lots of clouds! So in fact.. Que scary music... drum roll... Goodbye old way of trophies! It's time for 1 on 1! Attack once defend once! Trophies scored by better attack and defence. Or something similar. Now everyone hates me..go!

We’ve never seen anything remotely close. My guess is that SC usually prepares or has something in place that automatically adjusts but it wasn’t there today. Then seeing it practically return to normal with a snap of the fingers...Thanos’ snap was less impactful to the cosmic thread. One thing we do agree on though - SC really should have taken pre-emptive action on this one.

On a more positive note, I’ve already completed CGs on three accounts and ran the events on 2 of 4 accounts where I care to do so. That was all done after things were sorted out this afternoon, and the pace of play was typical of any other session. So...hopefully, this dark, dismal day in Clash history is behind us.... :o

I can’t think of any day other than yesterday that would be expected to have the worst clouds ever. When else have we had the first day of clan games, a valk event and one gem boost all on the same day? I think people are underestimating the impact of the one gem boost. It is huge. Players ready to attack again instantly (and searching for attacks) is a major factor. I can’t think of any other day that would have been predicted as worse for clouds than yesterday. SC should have predicted it too.

Game is unplayable right now in T3. Can't drop trophies if nothing shows up when searching for a base. Fix the game please!

Come on, do we get clouds in champs - which is a lower league by today's standards, just because there are events and CGs? That's harsh. The game shouldn't suffer a performance issue if there are events. The more the attacks are the faster the shields evaporate.

Any suggestions which leagues have no clouds? I fancy doing clan games tasks and farming a bit of DE for my lvl50+ hero upgrades.

The rest of that doesn’t have anything to do with the problem that the OP is experiencing. Clouds in legends is a different problem than extra activity causing temporary clouds in lower leagues. Not really on topic and no need to change the entire game dynamics over a rough day or two. Maybe tone down the drama just a bit

Ok, as of today the cloud problem since to be gone (at least for me) but what is totally strange is that i never (!) find any bases to raid that give more then 10-12 trophies on 3 star. I'm TH8 in master3 (~2700 troph) but all i'm getting is crystal 2-3 (or unrated) opponents.
Did like 2-300 searches and the highest i've seen was a single 19 troph base, followed by the 2nd best which would have given me 14 trophs. Like 95% are 3-5 troph bases.

(I know trophies are based on my trophs vs. opponent trophs. but the problem is that it seems to give me only opponents 2-300 trophs below me)

edit: wohoo found a single 31 trophy after 2.5 hours of constantly attacking/searching every 5 minutes -.-
To give a good example: On my last search i searched 55 times without seeing any >10 troph base

Try dropping trophies by putting your TH on the outside, remove shield, remove guard. Repeat that until you can find a base every second. Can take awhile, but I could do it from titan 3 and went to master. No clouds there.

Hi,

Am at Titan lll level as it take ages to find an opponent in multiple battle.
My last search went up to 43mins to find an opponent. This happens to my clan members as well who is at champion level. Help us resolving this issue.

Thanks
