make war relevant

In this game there are too many ways to over bloat yourself. If you want to raise lvl you donate troops. If you want a high shield you simply th snipe. Lvl 40 champs make the whole shield thing a joke.
They really need a better way to rank players. I think war can provide this. Bases should be given a point value. Not just on upgrades but also by effectiveness of the base (is it typically 3* or typically 1* and by what kind d of opponent and army composition) etc. These points can be added some how and then subtract the points you give up. That would give you an individual total. One that shows how good of an attacker and defender you are. You also can't inflate it with the sniping. If a base is frequently one starred the point value would be worthless to your points. 1* would only get you points if its 50% raided. You would need to 2 and 3* a base to get any points.

I think as is the strongest players are easily to define in war. But war itself has no meaning other than just loot. It needs a purpose a way to rank etc,

Congrats you have totally missed the point of the whole post!
You should read and think before reply. As the th5 lvl48 in champ is not even close to being a "top player" they are simply a sniper. But you haven't figured that out yet in your brilliant mind. The current system does not work. It is way to flawed. But how one does in war shows you really quick who is a strong good player and who is a crappy one.

I don't really like the whole idea, but I like the idea of a base rank somehow. Like when you are matched in war it calculates how strong your base is via defence and walls etc. it would be nice maybe to see this rank. But the -1 for this and that is just messy and complicated.

Trophies are just a fun way (for some, not all) to play the game. Levels aren't really meaningful, so why sweat that?

It's just a game and can be played a couple of different ways, so don't worry about others or how they are "ranked"

That said, it's interesting to look at the current top player's profile or another former top player's profile, Jorge Yao in North 44. Take a look at how relatively few wins they have (or defenses won). Makes you wonder how they got there. If nothing else, makes it seem that they aren't that impressive of a CoC player -- just good at gaming the system. So, why worry about "ranks" when that's going on?

Keep in mind that all clans are not war clans... many dont war at all.
