It was a joke, but it has a lot of truth to it.
Would a 4 star system serve to make those differences smaller or worse? I'm not entirely sure, but my gut feeling is that matchmaking would carry even more weight than it already does.
(And on the topic of my base: I get hit by max gowhatever all the time, nobody has ever 3d my base (since maxed defenses and legos). 3starring strong TH9 is not as easy as some forumers make it out to be for the average player).
