Introducing the Friendly Challenge!

Although I'm Mr. Glass Half Full I think this feature can and will be 'abused'. The people who actually have skills wil loose to people who put the most time in copying bases and endless practice runs. Is this fair play?

How will this kill clan wars? Now, more than ever, effort put into the game to practice will have a significant impact on the outcome of a war.

Additionally, mismatches will has far less effects, now that weaker-matched bases can get extra practice on their stronger counterparts.

I'm speaking from personal experience for this, but I have put in a huge amount of effort into clash, watching videos, practising in war (The number of 0 and 1 stars in the beginning ) and slowly tweaking and experimenting. And some of which I would like to think is my own ingenuity! I've gone from a rushed th9 gowiper to a max th10 with 2 baby 9s. I 3 star regularly with my 10 and my 9s 3 star maxed 9s on a regular basis. I've always believed the skill truly trumps everything else.

But I digress. This isn't about me. Most of my clan aren't as hardworking or willing to put in as much effort as me. They are content with doing the occasional 3 star attempt with no modifications or adjustments from the last time they failed! That's terrible! With the introduction of this new feature, I'm hoping that it will give them more incentive to tweak their strategies to better achieve 3 stars in the future (They definitely have the troops for it, they just lack the experience that I've had).

A very closed minded view - those with the time to abuse the system will. It will be a matter of time before it becomes mandatory to practice (mod) a base and all wars will become null and void ending in the majority being draws.

I prefer the 1 shot and cleanup. You fail thats on you, you win and get 3 stars, well done. That's been a proven working concept. This isnt a tom cruise movie/ground-hog day.

You learn from mistakes to improve.

The devil is in the details

I'm all for it if it cannot be used during battle day, using clan and players war cool down timers. I can test my clan mate's bases and polish my attacking skills, without being able to abuse it for clan wars.

Otherwise, it would kill clan wars for casual players.

the non skilled 2 stars wars players dont want to be raped by the skilled attackers so thats why they r against it

Or like I said before...it kinda makes us all cheaters...and eats away at our time for no reason whatsoever. It's a feature for kids and the unemployed and rich guys paying others to play for them, plain and simple. If there ever was an update so bad we had to be sweetened up with some 1gem boost event before it has even been implemented, .... That alone speaks volumes to me.


It doesn't lead to skilled gameplay it will just separate the ones with time on their hands from regular folks that's all. It's a legal cheat mode the way it has been presented, unless there are more caveats and rules around it we haven't been told yet.

Isn't that the way games should be? Especially strategy games? The ones who put in more effort deserve to be at the top?

Or would you all rather everything to just be decided by luck and random chance? That a casual stands a chance of performing better than one who practised hard?

I get we all have lives. But don't the ones who work harder deserve more? If the game is their priority, so be it, they will do better than one who prioritises working their real life job. But the one working the real life job would be earning more, no?

Guess what..you misplaced single wall , edit ,save, timer starts now..dumb idea..

+1 to this. Please ensure new bases cant be 'challenged' within 47h of creation.

Multiple accounts - friends, shared replays.

Are you saying multiple accounts going to make the same opponent base, manually?
Well.. Good job on that dedication then, you deserve it.

Maybe increase the cooldown to 6 hours then, so you'll need more accounts to copy that base manually..

This is the behaviour of modders currently so yes I am.

Nobody knows when it will go live but SC. We do know that the one gem boost will start today, just gotta wait for maintenance. You won't miss out
