Suggestion: Give League Bonus when successfully defending.

Suggestion: Reward player with league bonus when successfully defending against an attack.

League Bonus's are rewards for winning an attack. What about winning a defense? The problem is right now is successfully defending off an attack means loss of resources, resources needed for rearming and potentially no shield so you can be attacked again relatively soon. This is the entire reason "farm bases" (TH outside walls) became the standard. It is because successfully defending off attacks was just not worth it.

Fix the defensive system, reward players for successfully defending off attacks and I think you'll see many more "casual" players made happy.

As a TH10 in master's league I'm generally defending off 3 or 4 attacks before finally someone breaks through my defenses and I get "rewarded" with a shield. Since I have over 4 million in my storage I lose about 80K per successful defense. At this given time, it be better I just get rocked once, then to win 4 defenses (losing 80k per attack), to finally be followed by losing 250k or so in an attack that actually nets me a shield.

Reward people for good defenses and the casual player will be encouraged to have a good defensive base without feeling like he/she needs to attack 6+ times a day to keep a positive cash flow. Hard core players will not see as many benefits to this since they are ... always online attacking and not able to be attacked :) at least till PBK breaks in :P.

This is a pretty good idea... why not?

This has become a popular topic post update, as it should be.

I'm fighting for this one too!

Only issue I see with it is that it doesn't exactly encourage active attacking. But other than that I think it would be good.

This has been suggested before. I definitely am in favor of it, except it must counter 1 troop drop defenses. or else this will encourage players to go to the lowest leagues.

League bonus in lowest league would be dismissal ... why would it encourage you to drop there. You want to be a philanthropist and give loot away, just put your storages outside :), much easier that way.

You are correct every feature has a plausible way to be abused, but in this case if you actively drop leagues your just hurting your own ability to gain defensive loot by putting yourself in a league that doesn't give you much of a reward for winning a defensive.

Even today people drop leagues so they have better chance of defending, I do not think this really encourages or discourages the current practice of that.

lol you just pointed out another flaw to the defense league system. SC will absolutely love it if the people in crystal and masters put a storage outside, and end up getting more from the defense win when people snipe their storage than the actual loot than they lose from the snipe.:D

Maybe even with a reverse % too to complement attacking bonus!

OK, I will be honest that I have been reading the forums and reviews kind of religiously these past few days. I have not been too keen on replying to the main threads because frankly they're a mess. Too much complaining and whining. I would much prefer to see ideas on how to fix issues and this one takes the cake. Would definitely need to make it fair, but totally love this idea!

Its not up to me to put in every little detail :). Currently people put storages outside anyways to in an attempt to win trophies. I think it rarely works and your relying on the "attacker" to be kind of heart to give you the free win. This gives attacker's incentive to climb leagues (aka give them incentives for being in higher leagues like winning defenses as well).

It doesn't have to be the "entire" league bonus every time, they could give it some "weighted" values based on the strength of the attacking army vs your current townhall level. I'm sure supercell can handle the details of the implementation. Weighted based on strength of opposing army could handle the "1 troop defensive cases" as well.
