Will I ever be able to play in a relaxed way again?
I am "playing the game the way it is meant to be played" now, farming in Champion 3. I like attacking these bases with inferno as it can be a good challenge. But if I can attack only once every 1.5 hours. If an active max defence (almost) TH10 like me loses 5-12k DE as well as a million each of gold and elixir every day, then what hope does a casual have? None whatsoever. I win a majority of defences but still when people bring 2-6 golems and 5 spells, they can get a chunk of my loot.
And I absolutely dread the end of these holidays and 1 gem boost. I don't quite fancy whipping out my phone in front of my colleagues to play Clash every 90 minutes :facepalm:
On top of that, this new playstyle is unforgiving. There is little margin for error when attacking these TH10 bases. One mistake and your 300k army is gone and your heroes are sleeping for 90 minutes without you getting loot. I really doubt if I would want to play like this during work hours anyway.
Where are the collector raids or rushed storage raids that I could do in between the full attacks pre-update? What is the sense in removing those, intentionally or otherwise? The only positive I see is the need for much less nexting, but that is only because I am capable of attacking infernos (and please note the 90 minutes training time again).
Anyway, my main point is - where is my fun, relaxing game that I could log into for a few minutes? Why has it been replaced with this new game where every attack needs to be a war attack? Where is the additional loot I should get for losing so many resources every day. Last I checked, the upgrade costs haven't been reduced.
