I guess it means they don't attack. They rely on their defense to get trophies or just collect resources from collectors

TH1 for life...
You've probably seen Predator on here. They play high trophy level defence with maxed bases and don't attack relying instead on defensive wins to maintain and rise in trophies. You can see them in the top 200 players with no badge and no def wins or attacks. The def wins don't show if you never attack so while it says 0 there they actually are winning some def attacks.
There's also coolwhip from bonbee canada
A Player that trophy hunts using base design. You pop shield, run base, review replay, refine base. Not easy but good fun.
Examples are:
roey brazy
hahahihi
Rose rainbow
cole
prichter
atc kit
coolwhip
toy soldier
chris
me (predator)
scotty1080 (not sure that number is right sorry scotty)
There are many. It takes a lot of work designing but means you can get to high cups without spending a fortune.
Pred
Sounds a bit backwards. Most would have spent thousands on their base.
Would have been a lot cheaper to just max Heroes and actually raid for trophies, and pay with your time instead of money.
Although I do see the appeal in the strategic side of defence and constantly changing/tweaking your base. It's just a shame that the balance is currently heavily against you. Maybe after a little rebuff from Supercell you can see more rewards for your efforts in Defence.
Looks like I have a new favourite clan to spy on now, thanks! Re-designing this afternoon. :D

LOL. You have very good points stitch but this game would be a serious drag for many players if it was easier to defend than attack so am pretty sure there will always be a bent toward offense.
It is pretty amazing if there are top 200 players relying purely on defense. I'm assuming there would be mass base copying going on in the upper ranks and pushing clans!:p And spies on them as stitch mentioned. :D
There is no doubt this is the fastest way to rise up the leader board IF defence stands a good chance of winning.
So what did you do?
After a defence:
- Regen Heroes (with gems)
- Refill CC (with gems to quickly request)
- Fill X-Bows / ITs
- Break shield
- Logoff
Being attacked within 90 seconds would mean you could relatively cheaply defend many times in an hour.
Is this what you did?
Hardly an achievement if you ask me.
Just throw cash, gem base to max, copy a base design, close app, log in to cancel shield, repeat.
0 difficulty.
Would you still feel the same if the game had a LOT more hidden, and more powerful, traps?
There is no doubt base design is an art but the fact we can see everyone's base at any time makes it very hard for someone to create and keep a design to themselves. Increasing more of the things that we cannot see could change things up quite a bit.
not really.
You make 432k of each ressource per day with 6 level 11 mines/collectors.
There's a guy in our clan with only 26mill GG, he is ~ level 80 and has a TH9 base.
He attacks once per season to get a league shield, donates troops and apart from that just collects from his mines.
It's slow but it seems to work well for him.
Not difficult in the sense that the process is not tedious.
No defence players above 3700 cup because the game leans towards offense, and rightfully so.
It's very hard to design a base to withstand a top tier attack, true. Honestly i don't even think it exists, the belief has always been that maxed heroes and full spell Gowiwi can 1-star ANY base.
But on the off chance that such a base exists, and made known, then anyone with a huge wallet can just get a maxed base, copy the design, log out, and wait for cups.
My point is, there is no proof that the base design used by these "defence players" are unique. So from a 3rd party point of view, they are no different from a person who download the app today, gem his base to max, copy a base that he sees, log off, gets attacked, log back in, rearms traps, gem heal heroes, gem request cc, and log off again.
For an offence player however, no doubt about it, reaching 3700 by attacking definitely speaks volume about your ability to attack.
They attack minimally or not at all. My brother is actually in Defence Empire which is a high lvl defence clan.
