what happened?

I feel you! I don't think I've even been up against another th8 in war yet! I know that it is clan that makes the difference, but still! Mid level th9s against max th8'isnt much fun.

Guess loopholes are meant to be closed...

Those folks are happy to fork out their $5 every week and when they face serious war clans with low level defences but have max walls, heroes and troops, they get demoralised and may even stop playing. While we are the minority, I doubt we spend as much as them.

These days we only have a few 0.5s, mainly to start off a new th. No one sits as a 0.5 for months to max their lab etc. I even encourage some people to plant xbows/ITs as soon as they reach the new TH. You mentioned that no one in your clan has an IT but if you do have some th10s, maybe it's time they get them.

Best of luck finding the balance. It won't take very long and you'll be getting fairer matches in no time :).

I totally agree, the minority does not spend as much as them. I've been playing for about a year and half. And haven't spent a dollar. And have been supremely successful thus far. I love clash. Countless hours I've spent playing. Sad they are willing to sell us out for the sake of "casual" players. The term "casual" player makes me sick. They don't put the hours in. They put the dollars in. Buuut.. I totally see your point. The casual players are the ones who make SC rich. Not those of us who sacrifice our time rather than money.... I think I will take your advice. I am the only 10 in my clan and 2 9s. We are the only .5s. But we are at the top of the map. So it's really screwing us. I have no desire to be a 2 star player. Which in my understanding what max10s play for. I am becoming disillusioned with a game I have earnestly and wholeheartedly devoted my free time to. I hope we can find a balance and return to the glory we are accustomed to... if not. I will be very sadly, and grudgingly. Giving up the ghost on clash... I hope it doesn't come to that.

Hopefully your clan can add some more th8s to make it more fair and fun for yourself. We have 5 in 30-40 size wars.

Plant those ITs. Go get your 2 star on their number 1 and bully a high th9 for 3 stars :D. I do this from time to time to keep things interesting and fun. Sometimes you'll see a very bad th10 and can push for a 3 star. It would be harder for you since you are the only th10 and can't get to risky with your attacks (no one to clean up). Maybe there is an opportunity there to add another 1 or 2 to your clan to have a little more balance?

Might start with setting up the bows I never built. Just so depressing.. we have a buddy who runs feeder, who is totally maxed besides walls. Maybe adding hIm will help.. just really feeling slapped in the face for all my effort. I feel insulted by supercell. I suppose we can still be a great clan that wins all the time, just have to change as the game changes i guess.. huge sigh.... .5 used to be a sign of dedication to war. Now it's just a liability to appease those who were to lazy to find out how to get a better match.

Kinda funny that you engineered this whole thing to get easy wars yet call others lazy for not doing the same. Action.....reaction, live with it.

Did I say something that wasn't true? You found a loophole that you exploited for apparently quite some time now you're upset? Just accept that you benefited and have to move on now. I could see doing it for a couple of weeks to get your camps and such in order but months worth, you were just milking the system.

Didn't say anything wasn't true. Your just not replying to add to the conversation at all. Just to rub it in that my tactic doesn't work anymore. Congrats. It's rubbed in. Find some other dead horse to kick. If u read my earlier reply to the helpful gentleman, I stated " I guess i just have to change as the game changes " so yeah. I get it. Doesn't mean I have to be jubilant about it. Just wasn't sure if my fears were true. Which is why I made the thread, to find out from one more knowledgeable than myself. U haven't shared any knowledge. Just gloated about the fact that the game changed. Give yourself a pat on the back. Congratulations!!!

Go back to the post where I initially quoted you....where you call those who don't purposefully with stunt their growth so they can draw easier matches so they can beat up on them as lazy....that is what brought this up. I'll gladly pat myself on the back for bringing that up...
