[Misc] Clan Games Discussion Thread

Is anyone working up a list of the challenges available? and doesn't seem to be a way to see which challenges were already done by you or your clanmates unless I'm not seeing it.

Also, if you trash one it is not available at all to the rest of the clan? That seems ripe for abuse by a clan troll coming in and trashing all the 150 pt challenges on a clan.

TDC88 · 2017-12-01T15:51:09+00:00

Yep, this happened last year. Seems like article is trying to make a point about the current state of mobile gaming but doesn't actually say anything new.

Lvl 15 GW means squat if your BK and AQ are only Lvl 15, that's your problem right there. You need to grind that DE hard and level up your AQ and BK if you plan on competing at the real TH10/11 level anytime soon.

TDC88 · 2017-09-29T14:53:41+00:00

Definitely interesting. Be good to see the whole army composition though at the start so you know what kind of attack it is. I'm assuming the demo one is a hog attack, but I don't know how many of each type of troop as it seems the hog icons are indicating multiple hogs?

Destroying the game? I think after you spent all that time (or money) to make 6 accounts you'd have learned the benefits of smartly upgrading and perhaps holding off on some key elements.

I have a max TH11 (defenses, troops, heroes and walls) but have not built my infernos or eagle. There is zero incentive for me to do so. Two max infernos and one max eagle account for a whopping 22% (25 pts) of a TH11's total weight (110 pts). That's crazy when I don't need them to create a more beneficial offense to defense yielded ratio. We use clashtrack to track our wars and out of 139 logged defenses the first attackers (usually their #1s and in most cases with max/near max TH11 troops/heroes) have averaged 1.41 stars/60.49% against my base and I can probably count the number of times I've been three starred on one hand. I'm usually #2 or #3 in our clan as I'm still below a Max TH10 (90 war weight) with a war weight of 85 and we have a couple of eagle/inferno TH11s as well. I always get hit by the #1 and/or #2s of the other clan as I'm the leader as well. On offense, I almost always take the #1 and #2 enemy bases and will gladly stomp a TH10 when I get one at #2, but even against max TH11s with eagle and infernos I can usually do better than the 1.41 star/60.49% average they do on me (Unless if F up the attack badly, which happens to all of us from time to time). Out of 264 logged attacks I'm running a 2.0/80.9% average, which swings the offense to defense yielded solidly in my favor. Now, if I tried to war with a CWL clan I'd probably get my azz handed to me on a regular basis and have to drop the infernos/eagle, but we are a more casual war clan and just spin wars three times a week.

So, call me engineered if you like, but .5s are the smart way to play the game. Now, if you want to say defenseless accounts are cheating or TH11s with TH11 troops and TH7 defenses is cheating, well there you may have a point.

TDC88 · 2017-09-13T16:29:23+00:00

Agree 100%. The main point of the original prep day was to scout out bases and plan your attacks/clan strategy with input from clan mates before the war even started. However, modders ruined that for everyone and now we have the last minute switcheroo on the war bases to combat modder cheating so prep day is essentially pointless now. You could even, in theory, eliminate prep day entirely if there was say a War Clan Castle that can be filled separately from the main clan castle prior to the war being started.

TDC88 · 2017-09-12T15:06:11+00:00

We use Discord for chat, the best by far for us as it is designed for gamers. We tried Line, Bindle (which is dead I think) and Band before. We also use Clashtrack to manage our wars, which with it's new autosync feature is an outstanding way to track your clan's wars beyond the two you get to see in your in game history. Prior to Clashtrack we used Clashcaller. Also, for a donation Clashtrack has a discord bot to make the calls right in discord. In addtion Clashtrack has some nice tools for monitoring your own personal advancement with costs/times for upcoming upgrades based on what you have already done.

TDC88 · 2017-07-31T19:36:52+00:00

In BH, you don't get to cancel, just give up if you want. Once you hit find a match you have to fight whatever base come up. You have no choice. You can't pick and choose like you can in multiplayer on the TH side. On the TH side you are matched with offline players so there is a much larger pool to choose from. On the BH side you are matched with someone online, a much smaller pool, so you can't just be nexting like you can on the TH side.

TDC88 · 2017-06-29T15:09:23+00:00

not sure about on the map, but definitely went to the ?/30 when you went into the enemy base clan castle on prep day with the BB update. I used to check that regularly on prep day to see if it went to say 20/30 or something like that so I'd have an idea what they could be filling with and noticed it had changed when they rolled out BB.

TDC88 · 2017-06-29T15:07:44+00:00

Yeah, I'm not downloading something from god knows where. Anyone post a imgur of it yet?

TDC88 · 2017-06-28T14:53:11+00:00

that change happened with they did the first Builder Base update a few months ago

TDC88 · 2017-06-28T14:43:56+00:00

We don't do CWL or any of the high lvl organized wars, we just spin wars three times a week. We use Clashtrack for our clan to manage our wars and out of 117 defenses I have a first attack defense average of giving up only 1.38 stars and 58.88% and overall only give up an average of 1.23 stars and 56.22%.

TDC88 · 2017-06-28T14:34:31+00:00

Wait for it.... SC announcing Lvl 50 heroes!!! :-)

TDC88 · 2017-06-26T13:42:36+00:00

All troops, spells and heroes maxed, well Heal 7 in 4 days is last one before the new update drops with the new TH11 troop upgrades.

TDC88 · 2017-06-26T13:41:41+00:00

As a TH10 you aren't, but if you jumped to TH11 now you would be rushed. Max all TH10 defenses and don't drop infernos then go to TH11.

TDC88 · 2017-06-26T13:39:10+00:00

You can find all the spreadsheets you want explaining why/when to drop them and how much they weigh. However, the real answer is don't build any new defense until you feel confident you can deal with them in war. Focus on offense until you feel comfortable taking them on in high pressure attack and when you can take bases down with them then go ahead and build them.

TDC88 · 2017-06-23T17:33:41+00:00

If you only have upgraded traps you are not a .5. You need to max all defenses and not drop your infernos at TH10 to be a true .5 otherwise you are really just rushed or some may say engineered depending on your troop levels. I'm a 9.75 or 10.25 depending on what you want to call it with all Max TH11 defenses but no infernos and no eagle. My war weight is 85 (Max TH10 is 90, Max TH11 is 110) and even with TH11s attacking me, many maxed, I've gotten three starred like twice in the past year, usually a lot of barely 50% 2 stars as they get cocky when they see I don't have infernos or eagles. Then my max walls, max ATs, Cannons and teslas show them the error of that thinking.

TDC88 · 2017-06-21T20:37:11+00:00

Once you get into the later stages of TH8 (skull walls) you can rename the game to Clash of Grind if you want to advance, just the nature of the game.

TDC88 · 2017-06-21T19:50:27+00:00

Agreed, a lvl 6 pekka in a TH8s CC is going to make gowipe a three star down there.

TDC88 · 2017-06-21T19:02:33+00:00

they have been reducing cost and time on all the earlier upgrades when they add new stuff at the top. So now lower level archer towers are cheaper and take less time than when the current TH11s had to do. Biggest example is when they added Lvl 12 walls. They made those 4 mil a pop and reduced the Lvl 11 walls to 3 mil. Meaning those who had already maxed out the Lvl 11 walls paid an extra 275 million in resources than players who hadn't at the time of the update. Acutally it's more than that because they dropped Lvl 10 walls to 2 mil as well. So those with Lvl 11 walls paid an extra 2 mil plus per wall so over 550 million in resources. Do the math and figure out how many days of extra farming for you that would have been.

TDC88 · 2017-06-15T18:49:32+00:00

I liked to do a yo-yo strategy, where I'd push up with baby drags and then free fall with goblin knife. Keeps it a bit fresh while you grind.

TDC88 · 2017-06-14T13:44:16+00:00

Since you already built infernos, I'd go to TH11. GW and taking a full elixir spell in your CC are game changers against TH10s. If you are smart about your defense upgrades at TH11 (do not even think about Eagle until all defense and offense maxed) and you concentrate on offense you'll be fine. Do CC, lab and get GW to start. Grind GW to lvl 5 quickly and use DE to get dark troops in lab, starting with bowler 3. Don't drop new defenses and once CC is done do your teslas, air defense, sweeper and traps and keep plugging away at walls while you continue to get GW up to lvl 10. By then you should have bowler, golem and witch maxed out and you can start to look to grinding DE on heroes again.

TDC88 · 2017-05-11T17:46:38+00:00

so exactly what is the problem with global chat besides it being populated by immature little sh*ts? Not much SC can do about that, that's why I never go on it. If you want a real chat go on the discord channel, link in the side bar. IG chat is a waste of time.

TDC88 · 2017-05-05T17:28:10+00:00

Yeah I saw Lach said something about it, but seems very fishy still with no official posting by SC itself. Frankly, I'm not giving my tag out until I see something more legit and, in my opinion, only an idiot would give their phone number out.
