When somebody zaps me, most of the time its either a th7, or a th8 with no recourses, so its pointless for me to revenge them because i cant take any loot from them. I just dont think lower levels should be able to take anything off higher levels. Plus when people use lightning to get dark elixir they don't learn anything from it as it requires no skill. If your farming dark elixir from drills and storages u learn how to attack different bases the best way. Zapping dark elixir storages is bad for the game and should have been stopped a long time ago.

If you are so worried about someone lower than you taking your resources, go to a higher league. Or are you afraid to play with the other TH9 players? Do they zap you as revenge after you wipe out their base with your higher level troops? Deal with it.

Instead, I wanna see the positives in it :D There has to be some good in it, right?

1)What good does it bring to the game? 2)How, in your opinion, is it balanced? 3)Why do YOU zap instead of making an army comp? 4)Why do you think others zap? 5)Would removing zapping be a step in the wrong direction in the game?

I will try to be as neutral as possible. Remember, this is just for the zapper's opinion and no flaming!

1) It brings Artillery to the game, It allows a weaker opponent to Hurt a stronger one.

2) It Hurts an Enemy but by no means ruins him/her.

3) Because I have experience in how overlapping fields of fire work towards defeating an enemy and Long range fire support is a Long standing battle standard. I do not Comp my army when I can bring bring a gun to a knife fight

4) Cause they understand the strategy behind softening up an opponent before you launch your main attack.

5) Absolutely, This kind of Fire Support has been around for centuries, Removal because it isn't liked is the worst reason to take away effective support.

De whiners incoming!

We are ready for their arrival
Attachment 67281

The only time I zap Is when someone has put the TH in a corner and then trapped the hell out of it.

I dump as many troops as possible (barbs and archers) until I get the cups - then I dump the zaps onto DE

if they're going to be an ♥♥♥ then I will be too!
