Flipped it. Just add a book, a staff, a crown, maybe give him a flowing robe.....and you got yourself a Wizard King

Great Scott I think you've done it.
But seriously if it is a wizard hero it will have an ability like the other Heros I think it may be a little OP. Can you image using an ability and 5 wizards appear. So I don't think it will be a wizard for this reason unless it doesn't have an ability which will make it more balanced.

I am quite certain the new update will only come out at Xmas. If you watch clashcon closely you will find at the presentation on how to do spells before Ash starts the screen shows CoC update will be available coming out during the"winter update". Watch it at youtube on clash of clans channel, i think its about 4min long. Anyways happy clashing guys! Link posted watch first minute.

Galadon's video:

"now keep in mind this is in early development stages"

( >_<)

Was that an attempt to calm the storm? Lol. #clashconned

I have a question. My strongest account has maxed out everything except walls, heroes, cannons, seeking mines, and the hair driers.

* Cannons are level 11
* SAMs are level 2
* Walls are almost all lego (still about a dozen skulls to go)
* Heroes are 27 AQ/20 BK
* Hair Driers are level 5.

Would it be terrible to go th11 when it comes out? Because at the rate I can amass resources at TH10 (I'm in masters, getting crappy loot except for the win bonus), it would take me another YEAR to ever max out my heroes or even get lava walls going. It's taken me basically all of this year to get this far at th10 as it is. I suck at getting good loot.

Thanks for the reply.

Yaay Monday.
Just hope its not something to do with Th11. I can't stand another day of complaining in the forums. Even kitty troops will do 😊

The precise point was already made, it is apples to oranges to compare their, uh, communication, with that of companies dealing with paying customers who purchased the product.

Free vs $$$.

Can you understand the difference?

I'm with you on this I've been excited for every update I've gotten since starting my journey. I'm now a early th10 and I'm excited to see what it's gonna be like to have a new frontier. I told a clanmate today its a good time to be playing clash of clans. I want supercell to have another 10 years I want clash of clans to progress and constantly inovate the way we play. It wouldn't be the game we love and passionately play if they didn't.

Third
Thank you for pointing it out what Jonas had said early on I don't think very many people watched just waited for forums to reveal info. Over the next couple of weeks will be getting what he stated as "extended sneak peaks" revealing what "will change clash of clans across the board" and that what weve seen so far is "a small part of what's to come".

And lastly I'm really happy we are getting some of the things we as a community have asked for. For us to get that stuff they have to work towards that and think of ways as to what direction its gonna go and how to do it. And out of that we get crazy stuff we would have never guessed they were working on.

Thanks for the kind words regarding my participation at Clashcon! I agree with your sentiments outlined above. Looking forward to the the near future in Clash.

Firstly, credit to SC for putting on a high quality event. However disappointed people were about the lack of more details on the update (more on that later), I thought the production value was high - the audio/visual work, the venue layout, the welcome packs, the catering (not great, but decent and plentiful), the organisation, the attitude of all the staff and the overall focus on creating a great experience for those attending was impressive in my book. It was clear they spent a lot of money and put a lot of effort into this event. Would be happy to share more details on this if anyone is interested, but I'm pretty sure some SC haters have already stopped reading cos I've found something positive to say... :-)

Regarding the update reveal, I was pretty underwhelmed by how much they decided to reveal officially, but encouraged by some of the conversations I had with YouTubers, forum mods and SC folks there. Here is what I gathered, albeit with my own assumptions/interpretations/reading between the lines as these guys weren't allowed to give much away:

- This update will be huge but TH11 is only one part of it
- SC might have preferred to have the update ready for ClashCon so they could reveal more but perhaps development/balancing has taken longer than expected. What we might get is as much as 2-3 "normal" updates (someone said they told SC they might be trying to do too much at once!), so delays are not hugely surprising in my opinion. Even the new def they showed us is still subject to balancing before release
- sneak peeks might last 2 weeks. They should start "soon"
- The silhouette revealed is not a new troop but a hero of some kind
- there is unlikely to be a new troop in this update
- some existing def may get new levels at TH11 next update, with new ancient/mystical theme. I'm guessing not all def will get updates now, this will come over time. Same with existing troops (pure speculation)
- the new defence revealed will be for TH11 only
- the new defence we saw is only triggered after a certain number of troop (spaces) are deployed on the map. For example, if this number is 100 spaces, it will not be triggered by dropping 3 golems but will wake up when dropping a 4th golem. What you focus on in this first phase will be critical and introduce many different strategies
- new def will primarily do huge damage to one target at a time, but also a bit of splash damage
- it might be possible to avoid the full effect of the new def - it shoots the beam into the air, it has a delay while it charges up and the beam drops down on the target, so maybe a haste spell could help the troops get away from the beam before it lands
- offence may be given something to "protect" against this new def. Pure speculation alert! - perhaps a hero that throws up some kind of dome/force field over a bunch of troops around them?
- changes are coming that will affect high cup game play (not just TH11 but other adjustments)
- I asked if I should already start dropping from Titan 1 ready to farm for TH11 or will be there some way to gain enough resources for upgrades and still stay at high cups ? Comment was "wait and see the sneak peeks before you decide". Hmmm...
- changes are coming that may make it easier for TH9 to attack TH10 (no details)
- SC want to encourage innovative, multi-phase, hybrid (ground/air) attacks rather than lazy "spam and pray" armies
- In my opinion, reinforced by what we have seen in the live CW tournaments, such armies are currently practically impossible to pull off consistently for 3 stars without the help of bunnies. So I was wondering why would SC encourage these types of attack strategies without addressing the bunny issue?
- Apparently SC have been trying for years to stop bunny lovers. From three different sources I heard three different comments on this topic:
1) one was confident there are changes coming in this update that will address the bunnies
2) one felt SC were working on addressing this, perhaps even working with Apple on solutions (no mention of Android)
3) one felt it was a battle SC will never win. These bunny love creators always find a way to stay one step ahead
We'll see!

Again, lots of "off the record" comments mixed with my own interpretations of what they wanted to say but couldn't and my own speculation, but enough to get me excited about what they have in store for us!

Very valuable insight for the community. I think some are just focusing on why they've heard second hand in the community versus what they watched live or heard from someone who actually attended, like yourself. Thanks for sharing. Also, I should mention the new defense as I've seen others respond asking about it.

I'm not sure if you were referring to me as the YouTube who cited hit points versus army space as the triggering mechanic for it (I may have misspoken if so). As it stands now it looks like it's a total about of troop space on the map that will slowly start awaking the sleeping defense. Worth mentioning, though, that the Dev team was clear that the exact specifics were not yet fininalized.

Can you understand the difference?

Yes, I can. And I can tell good communication from bad regardless of the product. If the product is paid or free does not in any way change how to go about announcements. I would do it differently. You are free to pull the "Dude card" on my arguments, any time.

But you do not have presented any valid argument against my opinion that I would try to emulate Apple's stage presentations in every aspect suitable to my particular product. It's Supercell's decision to do it differently.

I hope TH11 alone is not the "balancing" answer for TH10. With new hero for TH11, new defensive levels and no new troop for TH10, yet, I'm not real fired up to grind through TH10 to get at TH11 and be war balanced again. New troop for TH10 is a priority to keep new TH10 players engaged. If true, no new troop, that would be a huge disappointment.
