I have more alt accounts than I care to admit. When I check their profiles, it would be nice to know which one has which troops boosted to "super" mode.

Why not, good idea, in our clan we write this in a thread on Line
I suspect more people would dislike this than would like it.
And it could even pose data privacy legal implications.
Data privacy légal implications just for indicating super troop in profile like heroes and troops lvl ?Quote:

It would be fine if there were an option for the player to hide the fact he has them, I'm not sure it would otherwise.
This could be a good optionQuote:

That viewpoint is not a valid one to hang your hat on, Ajax. Since you mentioned GDPR, I pulled this from their website:
“Personal data are any information which are related to an identified or identifiable natural person.
The data subjects are identifiable if they can be directly or indirectly identified, especially by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or one of several special characteristics, which expresses the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, commercial, cultural or social identity of these natural persons. In practice, these also include all data which are or can be assigned to a person in any kind of way. For example, the telephone, credit card or personnel number of a person, account data, number plate, appearance, customer number or address are all personal data.”
(source: https://gdpr-info.eu/issues/personal-data/)
Displaying a temporary troop upgrade is none of these things unless you’re seeing matrix digital rain while playing Clash of Clans, and even then, those are just sushi recipes.
I fail to see how it’s an invasion of privacy to know this information, but I don’t think it should be displayed. Clanmates need to learn to communicate with one another. That was my directive when I shared which ones I chose with the group.
That list is a list of possible identifiers - and is not exhaustive. Your player tag is such an identifier. So you are an "identifiable individual" under those rules.Quote:

Since the definition includes “any information,” one must assume that the term “personal data” should be as broadly interpreted as possible. This is also suggested in case law of the European Court of Justice, which also considers less explicit information, such as recordings of work times which include information about the time when an employee begins and ends his work day, as well as breaks or times which do not fall in work time, as personal data. Also, written answers from a candidate during a test and any remarks from the examiner regarding these answers are “personal data” if the candidate can be theoretically identified. The same also applies to IP addresses. If the controller has the legal option to oblige the provider to hand over additional information which enable him to identify the user behind the IP address, this is also personal data. In addition, one must note that personal data need not be objective. Subjective information such as opinions, judgements or estimates can be personal data. Thus, this includes an assessment of creditworthiness of a person or an estimate of work performance by an employer.
Ajax i think the point you made with privacy sounds really odd and pointless. We can see all other stuff and troops in profile and even skins are visible.
If supertroops would have been payed with real money i wcould understand that because sc already mentooned not to give an indicator for goldpass owner except the skins.
But since the supertroops are supered with dark there is no need to hide them. These troops are also made to be donated which makes your privacy point complete pointless.
