What do you guys think about showing level instead of league? I think this reflects your experience better, especially for us farmers :) Why not showing both (level and league)? You could have your level in the league shield. I hate when some people brags about league, and he's just th5,6,7,8...

I understand what you're suggesting that level is a better discriminator of experience than league badge; however i suspect if level were made the thing that is visible on global it would simply encourage massive amounts of players to experience farm through donation clans, hopping around open clans donating barbs an giants or endlessly completing single player missions until their level is in the high hundreds! This already exists and i believe there are relatively low upgraded townhall 8's who have managed to farm enough experience to put them into the level 200 club. Making level the thing thats is displayed in global will encourage it further.
I still believe that league should be what is displayed in global but i do acknowledge that there are problems with this and that low level players can exploit the current system to propel their account too ridiculous trophy levels, think townhall 5's and 7's at 4000+ cups. Stopping them from being able to do this would involve some method that reduces the availability of town hall snipes such as increasing the amount of loot stored in the town hall to discourage players from leaving town halls exposed for the cheap shield. I suspect implementing this kind of change would be very unpopular with a massive chunk of the gaming population who play clash of clans and so i cant see it happening any time soon.
When the leagues were bought in and replaced the levels, there was a forum storm about it. It was stated then i believe that this isnt going to happen.. No matter what... Sorry
While that would do a great job of ruining farming, it doesn't address the bigger issue of high town hall people appearing to be low because they are slumming it in a low league. A town hall 3 in masters does not bother me as much as a town hall 10 in bronze. Displaying level would give us a much better idea of when we are dealing with a high town hall person in a low league (which happens all the time from the number of town hall 9's that farm in silver and gold league).Quote:

It's like going fishing and deciding where you want to cast your line. The depth has no bearing at all of your skill but rather where you feel your odds are best for a big score.
All of these debates aside...
You could go to the tremendous trouble of pressing the profile button.
There, you'll find not only league AND xp level, but a whole host of other stats too.
You're welcome.
(It used to show xp instead of league. But then we didnt have profiles)
I think this would be a great idea to have both. It would give more info about the person before actually looking at their profile.
Its 2 clicks away. Knowing sooooo much about a player is 2 buttons.Quote:
