Dummy Base Practice in War

[Trederz]

Hello I have a new idea for wars in Clash of Clans that as a player myself feel would help me perform at my best in this game for my clan!
I did a horrible attack today and it got me thinking, I know where I went wrong in my attack but I just wish I could try again, or have an attack that doesn't count that I can use to practice my attack on a DUMMY BASE.


So yeah I thought it would be cool if a clan war feature was implemented into the war where you have a single available dummy attack where you get to attack a base just like one of the opponents in war that you are planing on attacking but it has no CC troops in it (won't reveal troop types), you won't get war stars for defeating it, you don't lose troops or resources attacking it. This would make it a great way for players to improve their strategies and find better ways of attacking certain bases they haven't seen before.

Outside of war in the base designer we could have three base layout slots where we could make ourselves dummy bases that we can practice attacking on, so just like how we can have several war and normal bases ready to go, we can also have practice bases we can attack outside of wars to make the game a place that supports player growth and development of strategical thinking at methods of attack.

In real war, you only get one chance at the real thing. You shouldn't be able to practice the real thing like in real life.

this would kill competitive warring.

Then maybe rather than war we have three dummy bases we can make and practice on, like the bases we make and save in our base layout editor? That way we can become better at raiding bases we struggle against.

Further more, do you really think that the military don't practice before wars? They set up scenarios, use dummy weaponry or paintball guns. Perhaps rather than using this feature in war we could use it outside of war, disabling in when a clan war is initiated. That way we can practice on bases we have struggled against but not do so during war.

What do you think about the saved dummy base in our layout editor? That way instead of ruining wars we could just practice on bases we aren't so good at raiding.

We can then recreate the bases in war in our layout editor and sandbox it, so this feature will not be implemented.

Sorry, this isn't a good idea. Part of the fun of warring is testing your skills against unique bases. Practicing just removes the fun from wars, and will turn normal wars into 3* for every person in every clan, leading to many, many more draws.

Sandbox is frowned upon by supercell.
