The Trophy System is Trash!!!

The Trophy System is Trash!!!

The current trophy system can be fooled and tricked. You can easily drop trophies to find easy bases or climb the ranks to become powerful by only attacking farming bases.

Ways to fix this are:

• Have the same leaderboards, etc. but the leaderboards use the max trophies that player has reached. Not what they currently have.
• Abolish the current leaderboards and have them based of skill level/ xp level/ base level, etc.

Please comment below your pros and cons to a new system.

And exactly how are you going yo quantify skill lvl?

[Garithos]

town hall 8. My xp level is 59

Attachment 93489

I can 2 star that with little effort with my BarchGiaWizBreak army.

I recently upgraded to town hall 8

and I have a farming base it just won't load...

Why you trap your TH?
Expensive to rearm... And it makes people angry, and decided to demolish your base

[Garithos]

This is almost worse than the the lighting rod ideas

Intriguing.Hehe.Right.

[DoctorNinja]

I recently upgraded to town hall 8

and I have a farming base it just won't load...

1. Maybe people won't 3 star your base if you didn't trap your TH
2. Yes you rushed the most important towers.
3 If I saw traps when sniping I would also 3 star your base.

That's being stupid. Not farming. If you're farming you want a free shield.

This. My lvl 6 Barch with spells could probably three star your base in its current state.

A town hall 7 cannot three star my base. And I am doing very well for only having two builders

Why do you not have 3? The noobiest of noobs realise it is better to spend the 450+50 gems on the third builder rather than some stupid short cheap upgrades. And as a th7, I could 3 star you without a problem.

I think having the maximum trophy level is not going to help any because you already have said, it's easy to get high trophies.

i find the best way to tell a persons level is by looking at their true level ( the one with the blue star against it).
I know your frustration though, especially when recruiting. Peeps seem true interested in trophies which are not a true reflection on their ability.

Alright Dpmoton, here is an honest attempt at helping you. You aren't going to like some of it but I assure you I am not trying to make fun of/taunt/tease/troll you. Just pointing out some unfortunate truths about your base and understanding of the game. Call it tough love or whatever but you obviously need some instruction to help you progress in the game. Here we go . . .

A town hall 7 cannot three star my base. . .

Yes they can. Don't fool yourself. They usually won't be farming with the correct army to do it but they certainly could 3* your base consistently.

. . . I am doing very well for only having two builders

In this sentence you contradict yourself. It is impossible to be doing well as a TH8 with two builders. This would be true if you were TH4 or lower. Third builder is more important than . . . well, anything. You are TH8 now and can't go back. Your #1 goal now is to acquire your third and fourth builders. Don't spend another gem on anything until you have them. Not a single one.


The good news . . . you have been upgrading your walls and your layout could be stronger, but it isn't horrible. The down side is that you have neglected your defensive structures. They need upgraded very badly. If you want to grow strong you will be staying at TH8 for a LONG time, so push dreams of TH9 out of your mind for now. Here is what you need to do to get started.

1) Research a decent farm base with the TH way outside the walls with no traps around it. For the next several months you want people to kill your TH for you (unless SC makes a big change to the game dynamic during a patch).

2) Remember those trophies you think are so useless? If you haven't already, snipe your way up to crystal so you can get the gems from the achievement. Use them to buy your 3rd builder.

3) Drop back down to the 1200-1400 trophy range and stay there farming. You should be able to barch effectively in this range and keep all 3 builders busy. Your walls are in decent shape so don't leave a builder available for those. upgrade everything else to completion. Yes, you are farming now. Nothing can be gained by trying to maintain high trophies with your base. Nothing matters to you now except builders and upgrading.

4) Keep collecting gems to get your 4th builder. Don't spend them on anything else. With a little luck you will be close to maxing out your TH8 and upgrading walls in anticipation of TH9.

Think of TH8 as a roadblock or a test. You just need to make sure you come out strong on the other end or TH9 is going to be an awful experience. You are already struggling to do your TH7 upgrades with the TH8 loot penalty. It is that much worse at TH9. You will thank yourself in the long run if you don't rush your TH again.

Thankyou this is amazing and I am saving up gems only like 40 to go.
