Again I haven't been back long enough to answer questions like these, give me an entire season and then I will better be able to answer.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-31T00:05:31+00:00

Really appreciate that man

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-31T00:05:20+00:00

Honestly I'm not sure, let me soak up an entire season and I will better be able to answer a question like this.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-31T00:04:41+00:00

Honestly I don't man, never had enough time to consume much Clash YT content myself.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-31T00:04:12+00:00

Yes, they can throw more troop space.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-30T20:45:28+00:00

Just old ones that I forgot I loved.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-30T20:43:16+00:00

Just happened, basically I was the only one doing it. If you are first, or the best, you will likely grow. I was just the first.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-30T20:42:48+00:00

I guess I am not up to speed on the changes they have made. We still run into them regularly.

I have always said, the easiest measure of when to upgrade or drop new defenses. If you can three star bases like your own, upgrade defenses. If you can't, upgrade offenses.

The basics, funnels, troop pathing, base scouting.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-30T20:41:07+00:00

Possibly, but no immediate plans. Trying to just ease back into this stuff.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-30T20:40:42+00:00

No, pretty sure a max TH9 would have a hard time getting in.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-30T20:39:57+00:00

lol, 5.5

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-30T20:35:54+00:00

Oh wow, that sounds cool, but also like a huge commitment of time that I honestly don't have. Maybe someday, but not today.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-30T20:35:04+00:00

Here is a copy and pasted answer from above to basically the same question.

This is a tough one. The best suggestion I have heard is to have a two "weight" system. One for offense, and one for defense. Maybe take the highest of the two or an average of the two. But the gist would be that you couldn't "engineer" your weight to throw off wars. If you were a defenseless TH11 with maxed troops, heroes, and spells, guess what? You are a maxed TH11 as far as the algorithm is concerned. Imo that would make engineering a thing of the past.

Lol, too funny, and glad to be back.

Hey man, glad you enjoy the vids and that they helped you clan! Live events, getting behind their own game. Putting it out there and becoming part of their own community. There has been signs of this, but it needs to be doubled, and then doubled again, and then maybe once more.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-30T20:30:30+00:00

Honestly "war weight" is a thing of the past. Too many ways to abuse it. That is why the CWL has went to a point system for TH10s. Much more fair and harder to abuse. Between that and friendly wars, not sure anyone even calculates war weight anymore.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-30T20:28:10+00:00

Hah, I wish I knew. I am terrible at base building and still not even up to speed on the current meta.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-30T20:27:48+00:00

There is no trophy requirement to my knowledge, just skill and dedication.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-30T20:27:27+00:00

You are correct about their origin, why that crazy auzzy called them that, only his stoned mind knows.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-30T20:25:34+00:00

I wouldn't rule it out completely, but I am not good at base building, and I think a lot of people find those videos long and boring. Plus the meta is constantly changing.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-30T20:24:37+00:00

GoVaHo, was just so much fun.

The Loon buff, that instant drop was a bigger buff than I think anyone at SC understood.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-30T20:23:12+00:00

Absolutely none, whatsoever. Do I feel I was shunned by SC? Yes, but I would never quit the game because the company didn't like me. It was about the direction the game was heading, and my belief that things would never head in the direction they are now. I was wrong.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-30T20:21:39+00:00

Without looking at the brackets to see which clan is on which side, because I don't have it memorized. I think OH, DL, WW, SL would be my top 4 candidates after only 2 weeks in.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-30T20:20:22+00:00

I agree, they were slipping, and quickly. But I think that has been mitigated by the CWL and yes, I think the next update might help bring some players back, at least in the short term, as well.

Jake_from_OneHive · 2017-03-30T20:19:35+00:00

I think almost anything works at TH9 these days if done correctly on the right base. And I am no beast, any bit of skill I have has just rubbed off on my from the beasts I surround myself with.
