Introducing the Friendly Challenge!

I agree. We owe it to supercell to at least give the update a chance before blindly posting our opinions.

My concern about this new upcoming feature was at first the same as most of us. But after careful thought I realised that we at least now know if a player is actually practising on our base before attached king it in war.

Look at it this way...

The player has to be the same town hall level as you and have at least most defense at the same level as your base.

If they decide to go through the hassle of copying your base, all you have to do is check to see if anyone in the war roster or the clan have a layout that matches any layout present in the war. That will show if they were using one of your teammates layout to practise on before doing an actual war attack.

Is it cheating? Technically no, because the feature is available to all players.

Is it fair play? Technically yea, becuase you can do it too.

I knew that by the 1 troop drops and the constant burner accounts flooding into the enemy clan

also how can you call it "fair play"
My base is maxed. so i can easily copy your base and attack it till I 3* it.
But what if your base isn't maxed? Then you won't really know if your attack will work will you?

It's a rigged system. It's not fair to everyone

I'm not that tech savvy, but I am not concerned about someone copying my base and figuring it out before war... in my game setup, I change my base with about 2 minutes left in 'preparation day' before a war starts - I show one base, but my actual war base is different, even different than my regular non-war base. Not sure when or why I started this, but... quashes any concerns for my game...

#1, only your clan members get to participate. #2, you choose the base specifically for the challenge, so your regular agenda is not affected. Make sense?

Perhaps there is more to the story still....so wait to see. I mean, how would they not see any of those ideas? Give them some credit.

The fun factor of surprise and unknown of how my WAR attacks will go is killed with this update. Getting hyped up before a WAR attack has always been important. I have 2 TH11 accounts, so now I can setup the other account to mimic the base I want to attack and just spam it over and over?

I'll be making multiple practice bases on each account that's really popular and tone my skills down. This will just make WAR boring in the long run. Why does 1 WAR attack even matter anymore when I can just attack my bot's base for self gratification and fill my COC addiction for the day w/ that?

The idea is bad. And is going to hurt the game. This update is not catering to its player base.

That is your opinion. There are other that have the opinion that is a great idea. You have ZERO idea how this will hurt the idea until you see it live.

I know the moderator's and game developers will attempt to tout this as game changing. I counter with the fact that it is game breaking. Just because you have the ability to do it now also doesn't mean that it is fair play. It will be used to gain an advantage over others. It appears as though Clash did one of two things 1) gave in to people who used mods 2) decided that they don't want to deal with lost revenue and made their own endorsed mod to the game. Even if I have the ability to use this without breaking ToS now; what exactly makes it fair play when you can simply rinse and repeat attacking a base...and don't act like coordinating will be an issue with outside apps that let you set a time with the clan mate whom recreated the base has free time to let you practice a base.

Thanks so much this is awesome !!!

Each update is coming better and better !

From reading some of the posts here, people just don't get it. It is within your own clan so it's not subjecting you to the "enemy" finding your traps, your clan castle troops are not expended, and you get an opportunity to test your base design before war. How is any of this a bad thing?

Supercell, you are on a roll lately starting with the May update. Keep up the good work!

Simple, they can add more scouts at the bottom to find your top tier player traps and bombs. Then place said traps in the right locations and practice. Where there is a will, there is a way. It's sandboxing, plain and simple.

Of course someone always gonna dislike some aspect, but it just takes the fun back out of war if people can practice 1000 times, we are about to see more ♥♥ war attacks
