I must admit, I'm confused

Still don't understand the perceived anger / annoyance of league placement with some members (highlight above). Seen other words like "coward" and "losers" for those that adopt this tactic.

Because that's not how ♥♥♥♥♥♥Cell "intended" their game to be played. They just to make to so that the higher your TH, the higher the league you would gravitate towards.

The exact opposite happen, and it's a dumpster fire.

I agree it's a little unctuous, but they've chosen the path of least resistance. Can't be blamed too much for that. SC has yet to properly incentive trophies enough.

But to be consistent you must also claim that any farming strategy that deliberately avoids attacking storages from strong bases is cowardly. Are you prepared to do that?

[Affront]

And how long do you think people will continue to play if they are losing?

Like I said earlier with the new system half the population is on the losing end and who in their right mind is going to continue to play a game that continue to lose at and don't progress?

SC and some of the people on here have forgotten that this is a game it's supposed to be fun, a way to unwind.

I liked the old shield system, don't get me wrong and I think that people will simply leave if they can't progress.

That is the problem Super Cell will have to face pretty damn soon ..

Until then, aggressive play above a certain activity is the only way to progress, short of buying your way to the top (personally, I don't find any enjoyment in buying a win and the new system has made me a lot more aggressive in the game.)

Because 10 people can fail to get 30% on your base before someone finally comes along and gives you a 12 hour shield. This system punishes you for having a good defense instead of rewarding it. If there was some reward for a successful defense I'm sure people wouldn't mind this new system as much.

If 10 people fail on your base you are surrounded by weak attackers... which means you are in a lower league than is desirable.

Don't complain about being hit 10x when you hang out with the TH7/TH8.

The choice is yours: get hit 10x and lose a bit every time, or go higher where you will only get hit 1x but it might be for 100%.

I can't believe I agree with everything in your post.

except there have been many ​max defense guys complaining about the same thing against real attacks.

Why is it that so many people want to be able to loot someone else's base but they some how think that their own base shouldn't be at risk?

If looting is going to be part of the game, you have to face up to the tradeoff.

The only alternative is to just do away with looting altogether. Just give rewards for smashing stuff.

It's not exactly a fair trade-off though, at least on lix and to a lesser extent dark, when factor in the costs.

Because of a lack of places to spend it, I'm offering and regularly getting hit for 500/500/4.

It's not overly troubling to me, as there is: nowhere to spend it, and I'm very active.

How on earth is anyone that plays less than me, and/or does have pricey th10-11 upgrades to save for going to do it?
I know the old save only 1 resource at a time thing, but it's not ideal, just the preferable workaround to an extent.

People that do have sinks for resources though, then sink as much as poss before defending, so there are less of those monster offers around to find.

I don't want sniping back, but if someone that doesn't care sees a problem, I'd say there is one.

Very true. A 1:1 exchange ends up a net elixir loss equal to the troop cost.

Great point fowl friend.

See what I did there?

Birds of a feather flock (think) together.

Touché.

[Sh1bby]

If an attacker has complete control of his troops, that might be possible. But to target a single storage, you still have to funnel troops which means you have to take out peripheral bldgs to keep the troops from just circling the base.

If it were just a numbers game, 25% might sound reasonable. But that's just not how things work.

i 29percented a max th9 after i took his Dark elixir, which was DAB right in the middle...
i did this because he did the same sh#t to me.

So your argument is flawed.

You seem like you dont know ♥♥♥♥ about this game and are just talking out your back side to try and make the point you are trying to make more plausible

[Flight450]

You can come to eyes it can take trophie pushes 10 hours in the cloud to find a base then take over 100k elixer to make troops to get maybe 30k elixer not even, then you got people upgrading these people need to spend high elixer to make big troops to get some what of breaking 30k more loot on top of searching for that right base.
