February 2019 - Clan War Leagues Top 10 Ranking List

Of course there is if you pause to think about it.

If you have already won the particular war with more stars and are level on wins with another clan then it depends upon whether destruction or stars is the tiebreaker.

If you have an unhit base with 0 stars and 0% destruction, how would it make sense to leave that base unhit and instead do a cleanup on a base with higher percentage.

Stars are always the first tiebreaker. That's been the case in regular clan wars and it is fair to assume that it carries over to CWL.

Additionally, if you're in a situation where even the worse circumstances are the following:

Base #7: 0 star 1% destruction
Base #8: No hit

If your clan has one hit remaining, either way it makes more sense to hit Base #8 because it provides 1% more destruction.

Same as a scenario where:

Base #7: 1 star 20%
Base #8: No hit

Even if you mess up and hit Base #8 for a 1 star, that percentage plus the 20% (from Base #7) is more than if you had only hit base #7.

So I'm not understanding where hitting the same base is beneficial?

Can you explain how you wouldn't always get more benefit from going for the fresh hit that currently has 0% and 0 stars? You'd add to either by getting the fresh hit.

Second, yes we've vetted these results to make sure no win-trading/collusion, or any other funny stuff has been going on.

Must be one heck of a coincident that #1 clan is empty now

This is a better way to rank the top 10. I think I had suggested only using the first place teams from each league (no 2nd place team should be in the top 10), but anyway I like the change to use wins as the first criteria and the chance of a 2nd place team making it are pretty low anyway I would guess.

We have won our league twice with 1 loss. Of course we were in Crystal II not Champs I. Top 10 should mainly contain clans that placed 1st in their grouping or won every war. Always going to be issues where another clan that could be in the top 10 doesn't make it because they are in a grouping with best clan. This may actually hurt both clans. Definitely agree this top 10 is much better than last time.

Interesting assumption equating the recent ban wave to cheating in CWL.

Cheating in one part of the game influences other parts of the game though. Cheating to max a base may not be cheating in CWL, but it still influences the outcome.

Not sure I would agree in the close comparisons given. Sometimes a base layout is just an easier target for a persons attack style.

In the lower leagues with different TH levels cleaning up bases is still a better option sometimes even if it is just to add 2 stars. Safer to clean up and get 2 stars on a TH9 than risk not getting 2 stars against a TH12.

Still think that this is a much better method to create top 10 list. Also giving out the formula being used to calculate the top 10 ahead of time can lead to collusion and gaming the system more. Better for clans to just try and do their best in their match-ups and worry about them first.

Would probably be better to extend the top 10 a little more now with more than 10 Champs 1 groupings to at least try and include all the clans that won their groupings.

We are talking about Champs 1 with max TH12s though.

It looks like another month of "funny stuff".
Going on at the top 10.

congrats to the top tens. I wish there would be some playoffs.
