The only way to stop "lopsided" bases

And how are you maxed th11 with just a few troops?

Gems, Ofc.

You arent maxed with just a few troops upgraded.
Also if you have th11 troops you're gonna be weighted as a th11. My suggestion will kill defenseless and engineered bases because there will be no point not building defense.

Let engineers fight each other.

2 search pools for war match ups, engineer and non-engineer.

Initial scan of war roster to detect a certain threshold of offense/defense imbalance. If any of these detected imbalanced bases meet the criteria of having enough offense to 3-star a top 5 and they are outside of top 10, they go into the engineering pool.

If you have but a single engineered base on your war roster, you go into the engineering pool. No lopsided bases on the roster goes to non-engineer pool for match ups.

Of course it could probably use some tweaking...

Pool is too small. Search times can already be lengthy, for guys pitching non-uniform base distributions.

Id be in favour of this, otherwise.

For the purposes of war, having all troops maxed is pointless. Only troops to support one or two core strats are needed. If you don't consider a guy with a setup like that maxed, in terms of weight, you're fully meowing up the wrong lamppost.

Pool too small for engineers? Or regular folks?

Yet another strategic choice people would have to make regarding upgrade path. Is it worth the tradeoff of long search times just to fight somebody that can bully you in the same fashion that you bully them. I like it personally.

Fair point.. Except you can't know how much impact that change would have until it happens. It could be truly awful.

The proper solution is to reward balanced play in the MM. I have high hopes for the September update (although I have low confidence that it will deploy in September )

To be fair, engineering match ups already are truly aweful. I mean, really. Except for the engineers of course. Let them fight even match ups

You still dont get my point. Having a th11 offense should make you a th11 regwrdless of defense. Doesnt matter if you have only 1 or 2 troops. Same goes for defense. If you have intpfernoes you should be weighted as a th10 even if you dont have amy other defenses

Assuming that this is a reply to me..

I agree that min weight for hall is the way to go. Easy answer; screw the engineers and the premmies (although no worse than they are currently, lol) steer everyone onto the balanced path.

Why not? Most players rush defence or max. Idk why, but it's true.

Only the sophisticated engineer offence.. Make those expert guys play at their own weight, ffs.
