1. If a player already not playing for hours at any given time, where the frustration came from ? Are you trying to say that player who actually playing for hours should gain less ?

2. The matchmaking applies to all town hall levels yet those who complained are either the ones who played in the wrong leagues or have inappropriate base level compared to their skill and time/money available. CoC player base are vast and you only think about th 10 ?

I'm still curious as to why I should see a single th10 in anything lower than gold which still is really low. That is the underlying problem that everyone is talking about Yet not saying. it's funny because sc inadvertently made the problem they tried to fix much, much worse.

loot penalty protected lower bases. For the 3 months that i was th8 in gold I got hit by a th10 maybe a couple times and they were usually rushed so that makes sense

The high lvl ths that were casual players weren't attacking the th5,6,7 down there anyways. There wasn't a reason to "fix" it.

The people complaining about having to hit next 100s of times... it's rediculous. If it's that hard to find a suitable target than go to a cup range that is suitable where you can find bases to hit...

I don't remember seeing any threads where lower lvl th complained about big bad ths terrorizing them. After this change that's all I see here.

on the other side of the spectrum... those th6 in Champs... that doesn't really bother me too much cause its alot of work to do that so good for them but now they're complaining and it's sad. Don't complain. You were way out of your league (literally).

Finally, another core issue or maybe it's the same is the whole issue of th sniping for free shields which has already been discussed I believe. I'm just mentioning it again.

Now imagine if the matchmaking was changed to be even more strict - matching based not just on town hall level but on actual strength.

How many times could you press the next button and find a base your own strength that doesn't have a shield and is not currently online but is also at your cup level? What if it finds one but the base doesn't have the amount of loot you're looking for? How many times could you press the next button and have all these parameters met correctly?

The purpose of upgrading things is to become stronger than other players. If you're only matched with equal players no matter what, doesn't this defeat the purpose of even upgrading things? Also, wouldn't this open up the opportunity for people to exploit the system by only upgrading things that give them the biggest advantage in matchmaking? Wouldn't every upgrade except for a select few actually penalize players rather than help them?

And what would even be the point of trophies and leagues? If it's the same type of matchmaking as clan wars, then why doesn't clan wars have trophies and leagues?

Additionally, what type of armies do you have to use in clan wars to attack bases with similar strength to your own? Do you not have to use very strong, expensive armies and spells that take hours to create just for one attack? Now imagine the complaints on the forum when everyone has to do this every single time they want to do an attack in regular multiplayer just to get some loot.

Such a system would create more problems than it's worth.

You do know that we get war mismatches right? It doesn't have to be match with players with similar strength all time, just more likely to be match.

U totally fail to see how high level farming worked before last update.

The low levels in champs and masters u see as "no problem" were sniping every single base they saw, thus shielding every attractive base (= with loot) from other TH9's and 10's.

That's why it wasn't really interesting for higher level players to farm there since if you found a base carrying loot there after all, you needed a whole army + your spells and heroes to get it.
What did you expect? TH10's cooking 3 hour armies and then attacking for 200k on another TH10? What's the point of that? It would take probably 300 years to max your account that way.

Loot now is perfect. Only people complaining about it are rushers and premmies who have nowhere to hide anymore.
And if you get attacked every time u log off, maybe it's your time to go to "the higher leagues" since apperently to you all the loot is there ;) Maybe you get lucky and a TH6 snipes you ;)

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ it supercell, this is the 2nd time I am posting on this topic, I am being constantly getting sniped for -19 or -18 can it get fixed or what? We earn less trophies in contrast to that we lose. Just answer this if it can get fixed or not so I can drop and farm.
My trophies : 3785

It's called being a whale. Welcome to champion league

Then don't put your town hall out!!! Push the right way or don't push at all
