I think the League update is great. A bonus is a bonus. Maybe we were misled by the leaked info but that's fine.
Show TH 8 some love please. haha

I like the idea of being in a league...however....
I like the idea of making gold better. Whilst I did try playing at a higher trophy count, the associated bonus is not worth the related increased effort in terms of army (takes longer to build more powerful troops). The cost of this more powerful army is not a problem though, Im always overflowing with elixir...10 minute PEKKAs anyone??! :-)
As a frequent player, I like to fit lots of fights into my sessions and the higher you go, the less you can fight. The bonus loot does not offset this fact...and in all honesty skipping battles is more common the higher you go so its a double loot "penalty" for an active plater like me...
So, to conclude -
I like the leagues and think they are a great addition...BUT as they currently stand, they are not really going to form part of my game play in as much as I don't care what league i'm placed in and am not bothered by the loot bonus in the slightest. Eg, if I can one star a base but only if I deploy another 20 barbs, I would not bother wasting my troops. In that sense, being in a league means nothing to me...
As to further amplify the hearts of every clasher out there: the bonus loot is too low. Especially for level 70 and below. The only league where it's even remotely sufficient to consider a bonus would be at Crystal 3 which is 13000 gold/elixir and at 2000 - 2199. That is literally hovering around players that are well over 70.
I think this is demanding too much from clashers. To be able to maintain that high a trophy count to reap a mere bonus of 13k gold and elixir.
Im currently at level 50 and I feel very safe around the 1k trophy count. There is absolutely no way i would go through all those high level players to 2000 trophies just to gain a bonus of 13k. (It's impossible for my level anyway).
I'm currently focusing on my LVL 5 troops which basically cost 2.25mil to upgrade. What would 13k be to me at my level? The level / bonus proportions are just not right. As a avid clasher among many others I hope something will be done about this soon.
Thank you though for the many efforts put into making COC better :) Thanks! :)

I would rather have the lvl's shown instead of the leages, it makes it really hard to recruit because you have to look at every single person
I'm not sure if this has already been said...
but i was hoping the loot bonus would have varied on account of the stars you achieve.
For example if you won the battle with 1 star you'd get less than if you won with 3 stars.
The new league system is good :). Love the creativity that went into it.
Some people are complaining about the loot being too low just need to give it more time for the system to settle in. It's just adding more resources to the economy as a whole.
It would be nice if we were rewarded for winning our own league. Some sort of system based not only on Trophy's in the league since currently we are ranked based on the number of trophies we have within the league. So, I guess it could be like
(#of wins) - (# of losses) / (total # of battles) = (Some %) * (# of trophies)
Lets says:
(Wins - Losses) / (total #) = (Some %) * (# of trophies) =
(25 - 13) / (38) = 0.32% * (1545) = 494.40 points.
Also: If a player has more losses than wins then just negate the negative sign. (25-26)/51 = 0.02 instead of -0.02
Top 3 people with the highest points wins :).
I shall work on my idea even more this weekend and post a more detailed version of it in the suggestion area :). I love the league systems.
Great job on the small improvements in the update - fixing the mortar and wiz twr targeting, decreasing de troop upgrade times, encouraging people to upgrade gold mines and pumps. And great job on not fixing things that don't need to be fixed! Glad to see you left tesla upgrade times alone. I had planned to stay at th8 and work on walls (my buildings are almost all maxed at th8), but you've created good incentives for folks like me to go to th9 sooner rather than later.
I understand the logic behind the league system, and I think we should all wait to see how it plays out. The incentive structure makes sense and, combined with the loot tweak, should improve gameplay for mid-game players. Good job focusing on making the game fun for all.
BUT, Supercell has steadily decreased the prominence of player level with each upgrade. A few updates ago you removed lvls from the list of attacks on your base. Now, lvl does not show up in chat. I realize that level did not mean much, but people have come to rely on it as a proxy for recruiting and identifying how long someone has been playing and how much they donate over time. Global chat will now be a free-for-all: you can no longer easily recruit based on lvl and must instead translate the shield to some cup range (which might be what you're going for...). But it also means that high level players will be less likely to come on global and offer advice to people. When a lvl 90 or 100 showed up on global, they commanded attention and often gave good advice to others. It is too difficult to tell on global who is experienced and who is not. What little global community existed is now dead. Also, we reject at least a dozen requests to join our clan every day. Looking at lvl is an easy way to quickly make those decisions.
Please, bring the level back to chat, both within clan and in global, or do not do anything further to minimize it.

You know what? Hidden in this splendid commentary is a wonderful idea.Quote:

the new league system is awesome! but im afraid that the bonuses are a little to low, you will have to in at least crystal league to get bonuses so high that you can do something else than just removing a tree with them, that sucks but the rest of the update is good
ps can you make it so we both have the league batch and our lvl next to our name in chat? it would be a big help while recruiting for your clan
I'll just ignore the bonus. It's free anyways.
