Top players clan jumping to get gem bonus

[takechip]

Players in the top clans get 600-2000 gems each for winning a tournament, or about $6-$20 worth of gems. This is an almost insultingly low amount compared to the gems they've spent to reach this level.

I highly doubt these players are jumping around to take advantage of this, no doubt they're moving around for other reasons and don't even notice the gems they receive.

Why don't they just stop giving out the gems?

I mean, it's pretty obvious that the people that win spend far more than they win (so it means nothing) and the people that spend very little or none have no chance of winning.

What is the point?

This has to be one of the most sensible comment I've seen in the forums.

Also, that is one of the reasons that people trophy hunt. If it disappears, I will guarantee you that several people will stop trophy hunting.

No, no, no... that puny amount of gems isn't why people trophy hunt haha, think about just how many gems high level trophy hunters spend, that compared to the small award of being in the top 10 of a top 3 clan is ridiculous.

This could be one of my favorite replies ever. Very logical comment, it makes sense in a game with more questions than answers.

It would stop some wrongdoing for sure. Never seen anyone suggest this.

Excellent

I suggested in another thread that the leader boards go away, or perhaps as far as rewards go. They should make leagues for clans and have smaller rewards spread out across the game. You can only join a league at the beginning of a season, stops sniper clans. Your clan stays in your league the whole season so you can actually win of course. Smaller rewards per league, more rewards the higher league you clan is in. This is in a way clan wars, as for the duration of the season you would have a rivalry with the other clans in your league. As CoC player base grows this would give more players a chance to compete rather than only the top 150. More chance for loyalty to a clan, if one competitive clan has a chance to win their season in their league already why move to another clan? More encouragement to win and get trophies over all, if winning means gems no matter where you are than plenty of people will find that attractive.

But again, are you going to put restrictions stopping people from forming new clans or jumping from one to another just to win a prize? Also, what happens if a new clan is created after the start of a league? And finally, what about clans with only 10 to 20 members? How do they compete against full clans of 45 to 50?

It's a tricky one.

Currently I see it purely as a marketing gimic for newer players. I can't see it going away, but I can't see any point in it either.

No, but its for a smaller prizes and less public, no one but the clans in your league will easily know you won so the win is more personal pride than globally boasting. New clans would be matched with clans at their level, there would be a minimum trophy level to join and perhaps a minimum member count as well, maybe bronze and silver players would compete, maybe there is a way to make it fair that they can SC can crunch the numbers. I would say a clan of 10-20 would get matched to a clan of comparable trophies, they would actually have a bit of and advantage though since they can increase their trophies by recruiting more high trophy members, however a bronze clan already in a league would have little to offer a champ player, they might win the clan league and the champ will get gems but he may have gotten more by joining a clan closer to his own league.

I discussed this briefly in my thread about the huge cheàting problem by many of the top players in champion league.

They do this because they have no life and need attention. Many top players need to see their name on the top 200 list or part of a winning one day make believe clan just so they can say look mommy I finally made something of my life......lol. Honestly whats the purpose, what do they gain? Nothing really, only a few people split a small insignificant prize that should go to people that stay in a clan and work together day after day, week after week to try to climb their clan up the rankings. Unfortunately a clan that stays together and has worked hard on a cup run and looks to be in good shape Saturday night really have no chance at winning anything ever as long as these immature people keep making these one day clans on Sunday.

They are cheàters in my opinion.

Supercell needs to stop these one day clans that do nothing but allow a few players to manipulate the out come of the every two week league champion.

Currently the gem reward has absolutely nothing to do with leagues. I think the ideas I've made here really would take away the focus from rewarding 30 players with something they don't really care about to rewarding thousands of players something they do.

I searched for a thread like this but came up empty which surprises me. Sorry if I missed them. I want to point out something that supercell needs to do something about.

They need to change the way they give out gems at the end of the season. All the top players just join into a few clans at the end of the season so they are assured the gem bonus. This does not promote clan loyalty.

I think the gems should be given to the top players of the clans that stay on top for the most time reguardless of where they are at the end of the season.

Is there a better way to do it? Discuss.

Top donaters. They are more likely to be loyal.

The gems are nothing to top players, and they don't add up tbh.
