Am I missing something or is there absolutely no point to winning your league.
I was curious and spent many hours one day to nail the #1 position..... for no reward.
My suggestion is simple - give a reward for winning a league. 👍

Agree that leagues have virtually no point as they're currently implemented - you get to view a random selection of other people at a similar trophy level to your own (so what?). I don't think that winning the league is an achievement though, at least not as such. It's fairly random that you get exactly the right number of trophies to win, and not a promotion a moment too soon pushing you into the next trophy bracket.Quote:

One thing I would like to see is to get the league bonus each time you enter a league - particularly as in the higher leagues the league bonus is what makes many attacks viable. But yes, overall I think it's time for a little more thinking about how those random league groupings are meant to work or what they're intended to achieve.
Leagues already gives u loot bonus. I dont think sc will give more resources or rewards
its so you get extra loot

They arrange you in a ladder format based on trophies because SC's intent is for you to try to climb in trophies. That's how they figure they make the most money from you.
When they rank you from highest to lowest trophies in your league, this naturally makes you want to climb that ladder to be at the top. When you climb higher than base comfortably allows you to defend, you start to get demolished on defense. Some people take this as a sign to that I've gone too far up and I should drop trophies, others take it as "my base is too weak and I need to gem upgrades right now so my base can hang with the big boys at this trophy range". SC makes a lot of money from the latter.
TLDR; The point of league ladder is for SC to entice you to spend gems to help you climb the ladder.

league? are you number 1 yet? no then keep fighting

As far as being a top player, you mostly only get bragging rights...unless you are also in one of the top 3 clans, in which case, you do get gems as a reward for your efforts.
There is nothing like this for lower players though, so one thing I think would be really good for the game is instead of showing 100 or so players that are in your league (which is really a meaningless list), show a list of the players at your Town Hall Level with the most trophies.
It might be nice to give some sort of reward for this, though the one major problem is that with the current system, you're essentially just encouraging town hall sniping (of course the easiest way to do this would be to stop giving shields for shooting out THs, which is unlikely to happen).
The answer then may be some sort of ranking system where the most heavily-weighted factor is trophies, but your average number of stars and average destruction both on offense and defense, say for your last 20 battles or so, are also taken into account.
The other option might be that the X players with the highest trophies at each TH level (or at least say TH5 and up) are entered into a sort of tournament. It could either be that they are paired against one another in single elimination matchups where they attack each other to see who does better, with the winner moving on (in which case it should probably be the top 16), or it could be a clan war type map where all the bases appear, and you have a certain amount of time (3 days maybe) to attack a certain number of bases on the list other than your own (say 3 or 5), and see which player comes away with the most stars (or the highest overall percentage if 2 players get the same number of stars.

I thought the same thing when they first came out.
The league that you're in isnt the world tho. Its just your global league.
Also if you wanted the reward all you could do is loose an attack to get to lets say 1999 trophies then win to get to 2000 then loose and win and loose and win. And farm loot easy.
Now, if you're talking about a 1-time reward. They already have that. When you get to masters you get 1,000 GEMS and even crystal is 250!!!
