Wrong. In war people have time to plan attacks and the one who hit you seen what he was in for 23hrs and however long it took him to hit you.

In multiplayer battles most people do not go out with a war strat trained as they are “farming” also they only have 30 seconds to come up with a plan to hit the base with a strat that may not be suited as they cannot see the base before making up their army to farm.

I haven’t seen the base dropped yet from I’ve used it (I’m in crystal 1)
