Balancing Blog Series: March 2016 Update

[rangermerah]

those threads are there, i've read several. do some research...

Just going to say, I really like this update

[ayih]

In war, 3 minutes is more than enough time. War became boring because it was way to easy to 3 star stuff using careless strats and face roll armies.

Overall I like the new changes. It's like taking the training wheels off clash again.

Players didn't get better after the dec update, the game just got easier.

They didn't ask me. I want that extra 30 seconds. When you say "community" asked to remove extra 30 secs, could you define the community? Did you make a poll? How many of COC players wanted it remove? I wonder how you made such conclusion? Or you just made it up and sounded like you care?

You never watched any PowerBang, or OneHive videos? Its very apparent you did not.

So far all the "leaked" updates have been spot on. The healer nerf is coming!!!

I highly doubt it. The leak you're referring to was something that was in the code but not a finalized change. A supercell staff member even made a post referring to the leak, stating that none of the items in the code were final, and they were simply testing different possibilities.

I can't think of one logical reason that they would include a balancing change in a future sneak peak instead of posting it in a thread titled "Balancing Blog Series: March 2016 Update," which was specifically designed to address in depth the changes they were making to balance troops.

^this, omg this. I wish they could find a reason to make small bombs actually worthwhile, they're nearly 100% useless.

Oh yeah totally useless. They need a real polish.

"All Elixir Spells brewing time decreased to 20 minutes"

Does not seem very ambiguous or difficult to understand.

You obviously aren't a TH11. Witches were the only upgraded troop at TH11 and they are nerfing them AGAIN!! Imagine if they nerfed hogs and loons at TH9, that's about the same.

As of the coming update this month, the poison spell will be 'slightly' nerfed. Troops that are idle in the poison spell well flee from the affected area, making it somewhat harder to use. What are your thoughts?

Personally, I'm thrilled to bits. The poison was never needed in the game and this is one of the first steps towards making war as great as it can be.

Actually Supercell, you know what? This update isn't awful. Or terrible.
it is hateful. I don't hate much in life, the usualy stuff, terrorists and paedophiles etc, and I never thought I would hate a games company. But I do, and you have the dubious accolade of being that company.

you don't care for real players of this game. You pander to the whining minority of gemmers and children. The game, as it always did, had the potential to be amazing, but each time you bloody mess with it you make it worse and worse, yet claim you are making it more njoyable. How, exactly, by making it harder to win.

for God's sake, the fun IS IN WINNING. You just make it easier to defend. Who cares about that? Call it Defence of Bases if you want, this is about attack, yet every time, you reduce the effectiveness of attacks.

And I hate that corporate ♥♥ strategy. Screw you. I am gone. It won't matter where I put my mines, as my base will disappear within a week. Stick this update.

Why is it so hard for SC to understand that people play to attack not defend? This constant nerfing of offense is killing the game. Good job Clash team. After 3 years you still don't understand why we play your game.
