"Clash of Clans" by Supercell continues to be one of the biggest mobile games today as players continue to expand their base while on ever-continuing fight during clan wars. Aside from getting themselves on a friendly match with a random village, the clan wars has become the highlight of the game as every team vies for more wins.
Because of its popularity, Supercell continues to improve their gaming experience and the latest update might just shift the focus of many experienced players around the word. According to Supercell forum, "Clan wars matchmaking will place a much greater emphasis on defensive (village) progress, and less emphasis on offensive (army) progress..." the game developers are also emphasizing on "late game defense and troops" as well as "win/loss records in their recent wars."
These updates will definitely make some big impact on how the team will setup their base in order to gain advantage during clan wars. Clearly, Supercell is not a big fan of surprise defenses so they take into account important factors that would improve matchmaking system.
So with these updates, what should a player do to ensure winning? Everything goes back to the basics on defense. Withoutthesarcasm.com has a very simple defensive strategy that would be beneficial for any gamer, "When other players attack, they have to drop troops into your base. They can't drop troops onto your buildings, and furthermore most buildings (with the notable exception of decorations) have a one-square 'keep out' zone where troops can't be dropped either."
The defensive zone is very important as it ensures you have ample time to prepare for different types of attacks. Simply beef up your defense instead of focusing on offense as the matchmaking system now emphasizes on these factors.
Besides, it's going to get a lot more interesting in the future as Neurogadget reports that new troops are coming soon. It's not going to expand to TH 11 but gamers are still hoping for more expansion.
