Barching for league bonus - My Experiment

[Sagax]

Total army cost = 230k Elixir (remember not all spells will be needed, and they are half the army cost) and 180DE.
Total loot gained from league bonus is 340k Gold, 340k Elixir and 2400 DE.
That's a profit of 340k Gold, 110k Elixir (at least) and 2220 DE just in league bonus.
Then in the actual raid I made:

Total profit:
701,237 Gold.
200,866 Elixir.
2231 Dark Elixir.

Hi Lach,

By no mean I'm an expert. Thanks for the experiment, but three points... not all of us have maxed out troops, it's risky (like some said) not to break the 50% or a 1 star (no bonus then!) and finally... (and not mentioned before) at 50% you do not get full league bonus ! For most of COC players who are th8 or early th9, being in higher leagues is tough and matched with higher town halls constantly.

I think league bonus could be part of a solution... but full bonus should be given at 50% and lower league bonus should be higher.

My 2 cents if anyone really care.
Thank you.

I actually passed that thread onto Supercell 4 days ago

Lach thank you, it really means a lot to me

And looks like now I can push to legends with Barch..... Great experiment!

Incoming flaming yada yada.
Please try and keep it civil.

With all the recent controversy about barching being nerfed and being forced to create larger armies, I wanted to conduct a little test, at the risk of losing my much loved legend trophies.

So, I decided to take a standard BArch army, and try for league bonus in legend.
Now obviously I wouldn't expect people to push to legend for the bonus, but a 150k (ish) bonus in champs is fairly decent for a barch attack, and rather easy for even a Town Hall 9 to achieve. I did it my whole farming life.

So, the army consisted of 80 Barbarians, 160 archers, 1 poison, 1 EQ spell (not needed), 5 lightning spells, (Which werent all needed, see video), heroes and Clan Castle troops.

Total army cost = 230k Elixir (remember not all spells will be needed, and they are half the army cost) and 180DE.
Total loot gained from league bonus is 340k Gold, 340k Elixir and 2400 DE.
That's a profit of 340k Gold, 110k Elixir (at least) and 2220 DE just in league bonus.
Then in the actual raid I made:



Total profit:
701,237 Gold.
200,866 Elixir.
2231 Dark Elixir.

And that is from one raid, on an army that took half an hour to cook. I urge clashers to move up the leagues a bit, and start looking at the league bonus as a viable source of income, instead of relying on collector bases.
And as a bonus! It's incredibly rare you dont get a shield up here!

Why is it your fault that you have a well progressed base and can do this?

1 raid isn't much of a experiment.
you also have maxed out heroes and spells.

if you truly want to test barch then take out your heroes and spells and then show us your results and iam not talking about 1 raid iam talking about a sample of multiple attacks.

your heroes takes 2 hours to recover and your spells take 2.5 hours and you also never mentioned about how long it took for you to find the match.

Your army take half an hour to be ready...for those who spend only 2 hour per day it means 4 attacks...How could we upgrade 3-4 mil buildings?
I'm doing my best with mi gibarch in crystal league with my TH8

[Taisen]

Maybe you're kidding... You have maxed troops and heroes (for sure gemmed it). Try again witout heroes and see what happens

He did - he said he was in the clouds for a couple of hours..... This was the first base he saw.

Heroes are needed, just that Lach has Max heroes. if you can try without the GW that will be a good reference

Did we Barch in Champ without heroes pre update? I doubt it

[rsking]

from watching the video, without his heroes/spells he would of been in the 30's destruction.

Great experiment Lach! It shows that loot still exists in the game, contrary to some people's thoughts.
