Broken Shield System PLS FIX ASAP

So basically the new shield system is dumb as hell and is making me lose a lot more gold then i deserve to lose. I lost 530k in one night because the new shield system is punishing me for a good defence and not allowing my attackers to get 30%.

Here is what i mean. Initially i had 4,5 million gold
At around 3am i got raided by some guy with Gibarch and lost 90k gold but i managed to fend him off with the help of traps and CC troops..which he killed. Unfortunately, i did not manage to get a shield because my defense was a success. So, asecond guy comes along and gets 90k gold again but still failed to give me a shield because i was successful in defending. This brings the total count of gold lost to 180k. Mind you i literally turned th9 about 4 days ago and im facing high tiered th10 and th9 armies.

THEN...comes along the 3rd guy. Since i had no CC troops and all my traps and heroes were dead i had nth to fend against his TH9 army and my essentially TH8 base was totally wrecked by him. He took around 350k gold and 1K DE and finally gave me a shield. YAY!!???no. collectively i lost 530k gold whereas i should have lost 90k gold and have gotten a shield because i was successful in defending my base.

Please rethink this shield system. Instead of deciding whether to give a person a shield based on base destruction percentage, how bout factoring the percentage of his army that the person uses?

EDIT:For those having an issue with me being in a low cup range...does it really matter? The issue at hand is the shield system letting people raid me till its satisfied that i got the 'proper' amount of my base destroyed and loot taken. It's putting people that actually defend their base properly at a disadvantage. My base is essentially a TH8 and i managed to fend off TH9 attacks. Shouldn't there be at least some sort of recognition for that?

Suggestion - raise your trophies and you won't get hit without a shield. Low-mid crystal should be sufficient and there are still plenty of 8's to hit there.

Consider yourself lucky that it only took three tries to get a shield since you're way lower in trophies than you should be.

I don't see how my trophy count is the issue here. It is the fact that im not rewarded for having a good defence. In fact its putting me at a disadvantage because it is allowing people to raid me until it is satisfied that i got a good portion of my base and loot destroyed. :/. Doesn't matter what league im in

The league your in is a active farming battle field, lots of players trophy dropping and gibarching all day, I also suggest raising trophys, lots of players claiming good loot, well that's the league they are going to, to find, new TH9/10 and rushed players to farm, get out of that league, the higher leagues people are actually using full army's to fight, and you will get crushed while you sleep, but only once and get a sheild.

Not true. I have had full army fails on my base with no shield, also full army rage quits at 29%....this is in masters league.

It is quite an issue that you don't understand being in a proper league for your townhall level. Take your lumps like a big boy instead of trying to hide out down low.

there are really only 2 options:

1 you come up in trophies until you get high enough that % matters and people actually try to get that upwards of 70%,

2 you wait it out and hope Supercell drops the % threshold for shields or grants defensive bonus to help payback loot loss for a defense win.

1 kinda sucks if you like low league play, 2 seems unlikely to happen any time soon... or maybe it is happening soon idk, they never tell us much...

Thanks

But here's where the loot it and its not helping me if i push up higher...the matchmaking is a little flawed right now because i dont have Th9 standard attacking power yet but im being pushed to attacking th9s and i get penalized for attacking th8s. Down here i can farm dead bases(if i manage to find one) and slowly get myself up to par with the big boys. But for now its just sensible for me to farm down here.

Try silver III its where im at. And its alrightish if you manage to find loaded TH8s because i understand the pain of not having th9 attacking power but being penalized for attacking th8s and not being able to get to th9 storages
