    pretty sure this will force people to play normally? (by normal i mean you don't worry about what you upgrade and what you don't)
    Interesting thought. It would have an impact on .5 bases but it would stop people stacking up on offence or defence either way.

    Hello
    any thoughts about getting daily Quests and more single player maps?
    i have been playing since the begining but we havent had any new goblin maps (still the same 50)
    also having daily quests that you can earn resources and xp will be another fun way to clash

    This would ruin the players that have rushed up with strong defenses and have weak troops. And no I'm not one of them, I'm in the .5 crowd. I think someone mentioned earlier, just make offense and defense count equally, with things like Infernos still having a very heavy weight.

    One other thing that is an issue, is we face clans (usually from a certain region of the world) that have very low troops, except for one or two very strong war troops. This makes their offense very light, and we see the mismatch by way of them having several more TH9s than us. It wouldn't be difficult to only count certain troops at certain TH levels. For example don't count barbs, archers, goblins, witches (yes they are now useless) for a TH9.

    It certainly is difficult to get the balance right and not swing things the other way. I believe it is 40:60 right now (offence to defence). My thoughts were exactly that, make them equal, but then you would still have people trying to get by with TH11 troops and TH7 defences as an example. This would still skew the balance if things were equal. Taking the highest of either offence or defence would stop people stacking one way or the other but you are totally right people would leave troops at level 1 that they don't use. I don't know what the answer is, perhaps the troops you used on your previous 3-5 wars could be monitored and the strength of them troops multiplied depending on the amount of times you use them, this would stop people just upgrading certain ones. However that would be a lot of monitoring and data which I'm sure would be very complex.

    You are still going to have people game this system. They just won't upgrade all troops. They will the three or four they use for war and the rest will all be level one in a defenseless base.

    Engineering thrives on imbalance

    Those of us who engineer know that engineering thrives on imbalance.

    You cannot close an exploit (such as max offense defenseless accounts) by overcompensating the other way. If you do, you will create more imbalance and people will re-engineer to even more disastrous effect.

    This is, I think, why Supercell has coined the term lopsided accounts.

    They will be directly targeting the most extreme and offensive forms of engineering such as high level defenseless accounts.

    They know that it is not feasible to perfectly match clans and that messing with the MM has as much potential to break the game as improve it. Engineers will adjust regardless.

    To be frank, MM is pretty dang good these days! Lets all give Supercell some credit, they have come a long way with this.

    If the loophole known as extreme defenseless aka "lopsided" is addressed and weights are tweaked so that no one defense is notably worse than another for its weight, then Supercell can claim victory.

    Those asking for more, such as matching by town hall, are barking up the wrong tree. Such extreme "solutions" would only break the game and Supercell knows it.

    Matching by town hall would only force everyone who cares about war into maxing every town hall which would be boring.

    edit: almost forgot to add. In addition to being boring, you would still have engineering.

    People would then roster engineer by having permanent max villages of select town hall levels.

    Any clan that was actively playing the game, and leveling up their town hall in the process, would not stand a chance against a roster engineered maxxer clan under a MM system that favors maxxing.

    Modding – Xmod

    After the "Fair Play Update" People started using Burner Account for Modding. Modding are especially used in “Clan War” for practice. So in order to stop it supercell can “Block the entire Clan from participating from the War” Because it is unfair.

    -> If they use modding in the middle of the war, make the clan Lose or Draw the war (without any loot bounce for the modding clan) or just Block them not to use any 2nd attacks.

    ->If both the clans are using the modding make both clan Lose or Draw the war or just block there attacks

    -> and “Block the clan” for next war search until the Burner account member is Kicked Out from The clan

    ->”Because it is unfair and cheating” this is the right thing to do.

    ->And sending a Message to the Leader and Co-leader that, “This Clan Member is using modding in the clan war so kick out the member for the next clan war search”.

    ->I think supercell can track down modding users in COC. If not users can report the clan if there is any suspicious that the opposite clan is using modding and supercell can monitor the particular clan.

    Thank You.
