for the next update, would like to suggest putting up previous clan war oppoenet's bases as friendly challenge options, so that for small clans like us, can practice more and improve by friendly challenge with previous war bases.

I think this is unnecessary. You can practice enough in wars. No need for "Friendly" practices.
You can always try what my clan does. If we run across a particular base in war that gives us issues, we take a pic of it and then rebuild it ourselves (some traps may be unknown). Then after 24 hours we can post it for FC any time we like.
I disagree with SmartReborn about war practice being enough. Any practice is good practice and the more the better.
I would not call a game "Game" If I had to practice attacking a base a few times to 3 star it. Games are games and you gradually learn from experience.
For eg. In school you can study by understanding or by learning by heart. But I would always prefer the method of understanding rather than continuously writing/speaking something just to learn it. Everyone might have tried to memorise something and must have failed even after memorising it hard. But understanding never fails. The same goes to learning in clan wars.
Edit: The way you try to learn has many flaws. You just keep attacking a base you have an issue with. This reduces your skills of analyzing and making your own decisions on how to attack a similar base. Even if you find a base highly similar to it, I Doubt you would be able to 3 star it.

I disagree, this kind of thing wouldn't be serious enough. In war, you'd be using a special army composition and taking the attack very seriously. This sort of thing wouldn't work, because outside of war players generally don't use very strong armies (some, maybe, some not) but the armies they are using on a regular basis aren't as good. Plus, note the "Friendly" part of it. War is anything but friendly. Friendly War is a way for you to practice and improve without any blemishes on your war log.![]()

You are making a few leaps of logic here. No one said anything about 3 starring a base. The OP and I both want to practice. Practice does not equal three star. Practice may just be going from a failed 1 star to a 2 star attack. I may find that the order I drop troops in is the reason I failed, dropping them in the right order next time on ANY base will yield better results.
As to your view that learning is all about only two things : knowledge and understanding, I have a differing view. If we look at a game such as baseball, how do you practice and get better? Yes, you can become more knowledgeable about the game, yes you can deepen your understanding of the game. What about actually catching the ball? Or hitting the ball? How do you improve those skills - through practice. Not so you can win every game but so that you don't mess up as often. I see nothing wrong with that.
I have to disagree, last night for example, I had my th11 team mates post their max TH11 bases so that I could try different attack strategies. As a max TH 11 I used full war armies that cost over 6000DE - ie bowitch. There is not much use in my practicing by using any lesser army than what I would bring for war. Yes, sometimes, we play around with goofy armies just for fun but for serious practice I am coming fully loaded for war as are my team mates.
Then you and I have a completely different set of expectations when it comes to games. I understand that for you, you prefer to not practice at a game to improve your skills but to rely solely on experience gained through raiding and war. I understand that you believe that if it requires practice, it no longer falls into the 'game' category for you. In my world I believe that raiding and war experience is important but can be augmented by practice without losing the 'game' feel. If it feels like work to you to practice, fine, but don't presume your viewpoint is the only one.
