I found a clan the other day with all TH10's and in their clan description it said that the clan was all supposed to be in sub-200! So I guess there are clans that are dedicated to farming sub 200. Anyways sub 200 has changed more I think because of all the traffic from the notoriety it has been getting, kind of like a good fishing hole that gets blabbed about. Once everyone fishes it it's not so good anymore. I finished farming all of my walls there recently and some days are definitely better then others and as usual weekend loot is tough to come by. Key to sub 200 now seems to be to get under 100 trophies and under 50 is even better. I farm down there at 0 trophies but I also spend over 6 hours at a time down there and get kicked off at least once per session. Going th9 now, so long sub-200.
Here is a link of raids that I posted on youtube from just last week. It's on the third page of the thread and you can verify my name in the vids an know its authenticity. Sub 200 is far from dead, but I don't disagree it has evolved for whatever reasons:

From my point of view you're wrong on that. If it's 'not so good anymore' I could deal with that. At least I would catch a fish every now and then.Quote:

So, I'm 100% sure that Supercell has put something in place that causes me to not find any valid targets anymore. The strange thing is it doesn't seem to apply to everybody. At least not from what I read in the comments here.
Another very disturbing side effect of that 'debuff' I got on my account, is that on my normal trophy level I can not seem to find any decent loot. I'm a TH8 and villages with TH7 should show up with reasonable loot because I only have a small loot reduction on those. That's not the case. Not a single TH7 village shows up holding more than 40-50k for me. It basically ruined the game for me. I hope that other farmers don't get hit with the same ♥♥♥♥.
If your addicted to Clash go down there. :rolleyes:
Raising your amount of forum posts doesn't get you better loot.Quote:

What you are seeing is a highly active time when everyone is down there farming at the same time. Sub 200 is getting more and more traffic. I have watched this come about in the last couple of months as I farm down there quite a bit. Your timing is apparently bad is my opinion because if you look at my base you will see that I'm all skullz thanks to sub 200 and anyone who knows of me will confirm. You sir have had a bit of bad luck but SC hasn't changed the format down there imo.
I appreciate your replies. Thank you. What you're saying may be valid for yourself, but it's certainly not for me.Quote:

Even if it's a highly active time, as you say, I should see the occasional 'regular' farm. Especially when
skipping through dozens and dozens of villages, I should at some point, see a 'regular' farm, wouldn't you agree?
I'm telling you I do not see a single one. No matter how many villages I skip through and not matter how many trophies I drop.
So, if you have been farming in the past 2-3 weeks and you had good results, then your account apparently has not received the same penalty as mine.
The first video I posted starts with me just above the 200 line. You see me dropping some trophies in villages that you would expect at that level: TH3 or 4. As soon as I go below the 200 line though, I'm getting paired up with large villages only. TH8 is the first, and higher ones follow, as you can see in my vids.
Let me ask you, do you not trust my judgment on how sub200 farming should work. Feel free to say so.
Or is the fact that you do not believe that Supercell would apply some kind of 'fix' on certain accounts?
The thing is, I can without a doubt prove what i'm saying by simply recording my searches.
Tell me what you want to see that would convince you. A longer video of several dozen searches?

What happens a lot too in my opinion is people don't know how to farm down there and 40% bases and that takes it away for anyone else to raid. Get a bunch of people doing that and bam there's no more bases to raid. Is it starting to make sense now? I've made the trip all the way down there for nothing quite a few times because too many farmers on when I went.
Honestly the 40% thing is being overlooked. If bases get 40% then they are history and off the map. Then all you're gonna see is bases similar or better then yourz and that's whats happening when you go down there. I raid during the middle of the week when I don't have to work or late at night when everyone else is sleeping and avoid sub 200 when I can on the weekends. I believe that's why it works for me.
Who knows my vids show that it's good if you hit it right, there's no denying that.
Dude 200-300 your kidding me right? :PQuote:

So, I don't understand how you guys are farming all these good raids down here. I'm TH 7, and I get lucky if I find raids with 1 000 of each available. Can anyone please explain how to farm in sub-200?
