Clan Battles Receive a Boost to Skill Rating!
Many of you expressed concerns regarding your new League placement. We’ve now carefully evaluated the situation and decided on the next steps for improving Clan Battles.
You will now receive slightly more points when winning a Clan Battle, while the points for losing stay the same as before. This means that if your Clan is a strong one, you should be climbing much more easily than before!
We want to bring this change to you as soon as possible to improve your experience, which means that this change goes into effect from this battle onwards!
Please note that when previewing the battle, you’ll still see the old points for winning on the screen. This is a purely visual issue–you will still receive the updated value. We aim to resolve this with the next update!
For any questions regarding Clan Battles, refer to the Q&A section below, or reach out to us on Discord or Facebook. Thank you for your feedback, and soar high!
Frequently Asked Questions
Here, we’ve listed our answers to your frequent questions about the new Clan Battles. Reach out to us on socials if this list doesn’t answer your question, or send in a Support Ticket if you encounter an issue.
Are the new coefficients for winning permanent?
Not necessarily. We may continue to iterate on the coefficients and balance them as needed.
Will anything change in terms of points when losing a battle?
Not at the current moment; the only change going into effect is in regards to the amount of points received when winning a battle. This may also change in the future.
Where should I look to see the correct points until the visual issue is resolved?
Your correct points are presented everywhere except the preview screen before a battle. As soon as the correct points are shown everywhere–which we aim to resolve with the next update–we will let you know!
Why is my Clan matched against a Clan with a lot more members?
You might be matched against a larger Clan because, while their Clan is larger in member count, they might be similar to your Clan in terms of battle performance. With a good strategy and a strong Clan, beating larger Clans shouldn’t be an issue if those Clan members are weaker than yours.
Will rewards be updated further to include, for example, more Legendary Chests?
We are not discussing this at the current moment, but we are aware of that player feedback and are keeping it in mind going forward. We’re really happy to see the increased positive sentiment once we increased the rewards!
What are Ghost Clans?
Ghost Clans are “copies” of real Clans, and you will face one when the matchmaking system fails to find a fitting opponent. Ghost Clans have always been in the game. Now that your battle performance is calibrating, you might find yourself facing more Ghost Clans than usual. The frequency of these should decrease nicely once the calibration stabilizes.
Will the new system take care of “dummy accounts”?
Since “dummy accounts” were used to water down the average Flock Power of a Clan for easier battles, and Flock Power is no longer a part of matchmaking, the idea is that this new system should take care of those accounts naturally. If the issue continues, we’ll keep looking into it.
