CoC and it's not even close
I don't know why necessarily but I was starting to get a little tired of Clash about 6-9 months ago and was excited to discover and start playing Boom. Boom, being new and interesting, started to take over and I was finding myself playing that more regularly than Clash and really enjoying it. I got up to Headquarters 14 and now I'm completely burnt out on the game.
Clash is totally back in for me and quite frankly, I'm enjoying Clash now more than I ever have.. especially because this "loot is bad" rumor is not at all something I'm experiencing, so I'm happy!
