How to improve Clan Wars to reward skilled attacks

It would really help clan wars if the star system was changed. Everyone knows there are a lot of clans out there not supporting fair play the way we all should be.

Here is my suggestion:

Move to a 5 star war system

1 Star Town Hall
1 Star 50%
1 Star 75%
1 Star 100%
1 Star first attack victory bonus(can be applied for a full 75% or 100% first pass attack only)


We all know it is harder to win and dominate a skilled attack on the first pass, therefore first attacks should have a higher weight. Also rewarding 75% attacks gives additional reward to skilled attacks....we all know getting 75% shows a level of domination and skill well above that of getting 50%.


If super cell is truly promoting skill in this update it needs to spill over to warring. Rewarding that first pass attack promotes skill and significantly reduces the advantage anyone not supporting fair play may have today.

So, I think that this is a good idea, but let me make 2 points:

1. You mention that there are a ton of clans that don't play fair. This is true, but this idea would only make it easier for them to win each war. If they sacrifice a few bunny attacks, and then 5* every other base on their first try from then on, it would be almost impossible to even compete with them.

2. There really isn't any reason to change the 3* system; it works fine as it is. Also, there is an element of teamwork involved in Clan Wars that this idea would eliminate. If someone scouts a base with GoWiPe, per say, and then another member of that clan attacks, they will know where Giant Bombs, Teslas, etc. are. The 5* idea eliminates teamwork from Clan Wars.

I don't think there should be any bonus for killing the base first try. I do think there needs to be something added to differentiate th10s as 2 star is relatively easy and 3 stars are almost impossible on tough bases.

First thank you for reading my post. To address your points....

1. Getting a full attack or near full attack win on the first pass is harder than doing it on a scouted base. To reward that skill is why I am suggesting the star bonus. It also helps avoid exploits I don't want to get into on the forum.

2. You can still team up and benifit from a scout attack to get 4 of the 5 stars. 5 star attacks would be reserved for the elite attacking level of someone who does a full 100% on the first pass...you have to admit it is harder and more skillful to get 100% on a first un-scouted try...not rewarding that is not rewarding the skill required to achieve that level of victory.

thanks again for your thoughtful look at my suggestion.

Thank you for reading my post.

To address your point. The system I suggest actually supports your point about TH10 attacking. A 75% attack at TH10 should be differentiated from a 50% TH10 attack...and a 100% attack is so elite it should be worth a lot more than just one star better that we get today for doing 50%.

Thanks again for reading my post and Clash On!

Thanks again. Just want to make sure this gets a real look by a developer. Thanks.

Some good suggestions there, but I feel more should be done to penalise clans that use banned tools to increase their war performance.

I have suggested a way to combat this by penalising the 'scouting' attacks that such tools require. If stars were DEDUCTED for attacks that got less than 40%, or 30%, etc, it wouldn't pay clans to use low bases to scout high ones.

Anyone who feels the same (or disagrees), please feel free to comment on my thread here:

No reason they cannot do both.....Utilize a negative star system for miserably failed attacks 30% ish and use a 5 star system that awards a bonus star for first attacks only. It would make modding completely a mute point.

The negative star idea is great. However...a scouting attack can still be a 50% attack that doesn't get penalized under this system. Without moving to a five star system and rewarding that first attack with a star you allow modders to sandbox and get maximum stars. Combining both a negative star system with the five star system I have outlined it completely negates any possibility of modding being of any benefit. You HAVE to reward the first attack and you HAVE to punish the clear scout-to-mod attacks. YOU NEED BOTH! If a modder is still able to get max stars after a non-penalized attack you still reward it.

I support anything to make the game fair.

Playing with clans that sandbox is a huge waste of time and it even takes a toll on your clan.

Our clan typically wars once to twice a week, when you get a sandboxing clan you just feel like whats the point in playing clanwar.

I didnt care about the guys that are using clashauto because it didnt really effect me. Chances are supercell is more concerned about them because it eats into gem profits. Lets face facts though shall we, anyone who wants to ♥♥♥♥ a free to play game is likely not going to invest any money anyways.

If supercell can rid us of both, excellent. If not, please focus on sandbox clans.
