Why does Trophies matter all of the sudden?

When I was a new TH9, I was in gold farming for my upgrades, the sweet spot.

After a couple of days, Yes, DAYS, it dried up. Nexting became a pain. Decided to move down to Silver. Again, I hit the sweet spot. Same thing, it dried up in a matter of days.

This happened on a daily basis, jumping up and down the leagues looking for that sweet spot. Even reached Masters III just looking for Loot.

Realizing how good the "Loot bonus" was in Masters, I stayed there until my TH9 had max defences except heroes and walls, which I later did (lego walls w/ a few zap here and there).

I decided to head on to Champs III to farm for the loot bonus. Not collectors, not storages, but for the loot bonus itself. Then I got greedy. I wanted more. Decided to head on to Champs I. On my road to Champs II, I was devasted. Cup offers were now 1-3 mostly 1s, 3 cups was a FIND. I thought to myself, "this is gonna take me months to get me to Champs I !!". From there I stopped climbing.

I'm happily in Masters II now, farming for my TH10 defences, slowly but steadily.

With the new coming update and adjustments on the cup system, you bet your a$$ I'm gonna hit that road once again.(no offence)

So to answer your question reasonably short, Yes Trophies Does Matter. No more jumping up and down in the lower leagues. No more searching for that sweet spot. Just head on up!

Good luck 70% for the full bonus up there bud. I made it to 3600 and against Max heros which is commonplace I was in the 50-60% range. You will not get the full bonus now, which is cause for adding additional features.

Your input is appreciated :)

I heard it and read the transcript. I am still concerned with the direction the game is going.

Wait until the first maxed TH11's start showing up within 5 minutes of the update dropping. Champs just got a lot harder for everyone.

Not for us TH9s! That's why I'm staying TH9. Wars are funner, and all those max TH10s will upgrade to TH11, so it should make it easier on TH9s.

That is, unless they release some new dark troops for TH10, then I might make the jump.

- really, you've obviously never attacked a max 10 with barch. Taking all their loot and 50% is a rush like no other. Clan wars don't come close.
- absolutely. And if I'd spent 10k in gems I'm sure I would be able to.
- please don't regurgitate false information. One Sunday morning in one league there were 5 attacks, 4 happened to be snipes, meaningless...

Very much agree with op, other then getting the gem bounus there is no point to trophy pushing.
I have 3 accounts 7, 9 and 10
I never go above 1400, how would it help me progress in the game and do better in wars?
SC needs to thin out trophy pushing with zones and give better perks so trophy pushing helps a player biuld their base.

available loot will get better from raiding, since more people will be in the pool with high loot offers. However overall loot in your storage.. I donnu maybe it will be easier, maybe it will be harder. I personally already always do full attacks and attack like once an hour w/proper trooops (helps me work on my war attacks) but if I see I snipe while searching for 200-300k storage I definitely nab it. I'm guessing I get around 500k a day or so from snipes, and 3m a day or so from storage/collectors. If the offers become that much better (ie seeing 400-500k storages) then I'll be way ahead, but if it stays the same I'll be short about 500k a day not including how much more frequently I will get hit since I won't be getting sniped.

The only reason why ppl have loot in their storages is that they have been able to accumulate it under shield. Now they will get a full attack every 12h, only long enough for collectors/mines/ drills to make up the difference they lost.
you get those high storages because you are probably the 8th person to hit them after 7 snipes.
smart players are going to boost, dump everything into walls & then give ppl nothing to take.
many ppl are saying that's what they will do, just tap & war & take the losses, others are quitting.
The economy will not be the same. Don't base anything on past results.

I'm a TH10 now and plenty of TH8's still show up in my searches. Just as plenty of TH9's will once I go to 11. I may get less available loot from a TH9, but I won't need an expensive army to do it. They may even become the exact bases I will be looking for.

I really hope things are not going to be as bad as a lot of us expect them to be with what has been released so far.

What league are you in? It probably happens more in the lower leagues, but I think I've maybe seen 1 or 2 TH7s in all the months I've been in masters and champs as a TH9.
