Friendly Challenge: Additional Details

Layout Replacing Restrictions

Your feedback about how Friendly Challenges might affect Clan War dynamics was super helpful. What makes Clan Wars exciting is the pressure of getting an attack right the first time. Using the new feature to endlessly practice attacks would replace one-shot attacking skill with endless, grindy repetition.

To address this, layouts modified within the last 24 hours will not be available for Friendly Challenges if you are Town Hall 9 or above. Town Hall 8 and below will not have any restrictions.

Changes to War Preparation Day

In order to make the Layout cooldown 24-hours, we will also change how Scouting works on Preparation day.

After the update, you will no longer be able to view an opponent’s War Base layout during Preparation Day. Instead, Scouting will show their active Village layout. This way, players can still get a good sense for the strength of War Bases they are facing, but can’t copy exact layouts for practice. Scouting during Battle Day will remain the same.

Why do this? Without this change to Scouting, the Friendly Challenge cooldown would have to be 48-hours to prevent any possibility of “war practice.”

May 2016 Update

We’re extra excited to bring you an update jam-packed with content and a brand new way to Clash: the Friendly Challenge! Stay tuned to Sneak Peeks to see all the biggest new additions, and read more about Friendly Challenges here.

Balancing and Update News:

Much of the balancing this update is coming in the form of new levels and smaller tweaks.

Town Hall 11

Cannon level 14

Lava Hound level 4

Balloon level 7

In Town Hall 11, air armies have dwindled in popularity. These new levels should help revitalize high-level air armies while helping to defend against the ground rush.

Town Hall 10+

Bowler housing space reduced to 6

Bowlers just didn’t seem to be providing enough value for an 8 housing space unit, and the bulky size made him a tough fit in a well-rounded army.

Town Hall 7+

Spring Trap levels 2-4

New Spring Trap levels with minor capacity increases will help catch additional units from time to time. They might even catch an extra Valkyrie!

Other:

Edit Mode tools: A bunch of features added to make editing layouts easier

Donate fully trained Troops/Spells from production queues even if your army is full

Drag troops/spells anywhere into a training queue – training progress is transferred

Gem Troops/Spells for donation directly from the donation context menu

War Logs for any Clan can now be publicly viewed, unless disabled in Clan settings

Builder Suggestions: Tap Builder Info to see and select suggested upgrades to perform

Live spectator count is now shown during attack – see how many others are watching!

Introducing the Friendly Challenge!

Friendly Challenges let clanmates attack one another for practice, competition, or just plain fun! Friendly Challenges are unlimited and won’t cost gold or consume Troops, Spells, Heroes or Traps. You also won’t earn resources, Trophies or other bonuses.

Issuing a Friendly Challenge: To invite your clanmates to attack your village, look for the new “Challenge” button at the top of Clan chat. You can choose between your active layout or any other valid saved layout, including War Bases. Add some custom text (or don’t) and post the Friendly Challenge to the Clan chat. Simple! Once posted, any member of your Clan can accept the Friendly Challenge and launch an attack against your chosen layout. Don’t worry, they won’t be able to steal any of your resources or Trophies. Any troops you have in your Clan Castle at the time you post will be used as defensive troops, but you won’t lose those either.

Accepting a Friendly Challenge: When you accept a Friendly Challenge, you will attack your clanmates village using your current army. Everything you deploy will be returned to you after the battle, so don’t hold back! The replay and results of your attack will be available in Clan chat. Of course, if your Clan can’t wait that long, they can watch the attack live.
