Will CW change Clash of Clans drastically?
I believe so.
Since we don't have the feature yet to save base layouts, most people will just keep the hybrid or trophy base they use for Clan Wars since it's too much of a hustle to change your base every other day.
This means a huge difference for gameplay: less free townhalls means less free shields, means more raidable bases. This is a positive effect (also think this is the side effect SC aims at deliberately).
Farming and low level pushing will be hugely affected too: less snipes means you can move up/down in cups slower than we used to, which is very important to most farmers (I refer to those only taking down collectors and then move back up by snipes).
Other negative aspect: Clan Wars will cause a huge influx of both new players and players that regained interest in the game because of the new feature, which will imo cause a decrease in collector raids.
Any opinions on this?
