Why Walls Are So Problematic In Clash of Clans...

[@fgvcosmic6752]

Completely true. At really low levels, wall breakers were _really_ expensive. You wouldn't pack an army with pekkas and dragons because it would cost a ton and take _forever_ to train

[@DoomedBySociety]

fr i remember spending like 400k+ elixir and like 8k dark on my war armies n that shii was expensive. always hated the fact if i found a base with lets say 800k ea i would get 800k gold but only like 500k elixir cuz of the cost of the armies. made it a lot harder to farm elixir. now ppl b over flowing with elixir

[@ftgodlygoose4718]

@@DoomedBySocietyI came back to the game a month ago and my brain exploded when I realized my armies weren’t using resources 😂. Started spamming tf out of op units because why not

[@Silent_Shishya]

At this point, walls are just to dump useless resources. They make no sense when you have troops which fly over them, jump over them, burrow under them, smash through them, troops specifically target them, spells which destroy walls, spells would enable troops to jump over them, multiple siege machines which destroy walls AND the new Barbarian King ability which destroys walls

[@coolball999]

Technically speaking, they're not that useless, they can ruin pathing and disrupt smash attacks, as well as making funnels a thing. Walls always have some use at all TH levels, which led me to believe that supercell add so many counter to it is because if there isn't much then walls would be absolutely broken. But i think they went a little too much into it and now they're closer to cosmetics to your village rather than actual defense, sad really, they look nice

[@Silent_Shishya]

@@coolball999 i never said that they are completely useless, I prefer smash attacks and they are a pain to deal with. But, from the broader context, most attack styles in the current meta, they are just cosmetic upgrades.

[@helios2664]

Not quite true, they keep you from getting destroyed by any random ground army, and as pointed out in the video at th12+ ground armies overall become stronger than air. But I agree they definitely don't give you value equal to the amount of grinding you have to put into them.

Really the only way to make them effective is to double their health, or introduce different types of walls that interact with troops in different ways.

Walls are more of a status of symbol or a symbol of a more difficult base to attack. It makes little sence but if you see level 1 walls youll be more inclined to attack even if your army is air only.

I think walls is just a way to not have max storages sitting doing nothing all the time in the higher town halls while u wait for the 2 week timer. Its just a way to dump it while actually having something to show for it

[@KristapsK1]

this would be the case, if walls didn't need an idle builder. because they do, though, your storages will slowly fill up casually, whether its by collecting from collectors/mines/drills, or doing attacks

[@slurp3194]

Well that seems like a side ways move and a bad fix for the game. Instead they need to make the gameplay more interesting so people stay for pushing and having fun. New fun game modes would be a cool addition like clash royale does. Something more casual but competitive as well. I would love if they re did troop ai and allowed u to even take control of a hero so u can create custom paths. They simply need to make the game more immersive for people to spend more time in the game. Global used to fill that gap of socializing but now they need game modes to fill that large gap

[@alexanderelderhorst2107]

wow, crazy they would rather have expensive walls to drain your storages rather than have somebody get a benefit to higher loot to raid... which in turn would mean you also get more loot in raids making it easier to loot for upgrades cause you don't have to scroll for an hour to find something with more than 50k gold at th13 Yeah I started playing again recently and I'm salty But seriously if you didn't have to grind basic farming armies for so long then you could actually have fun more often. do a few farming runs cause there's more loot to go around, get the loot you need for the upgrade, and NOW you can do a couple fun ones here and there to push ladder while upgrading or just to try new things because it isn't detrimental to the upgrade process. Heck you could upgrade heroes much easier and then they will be able to hold their own... only problem would be how to balance them to be usable while waiting for the upgrade.

[@johnfinklestein6910]

As a TH16 I can see the argument on walls being "less useful" now that we have so many ways to avoid walls..I personally see a lot of value in them. They're not only good for funneling but air attacks are a lot easier to flop imo. At the end of the day pro players are always gonna show us the best strategies to emulate so I'm not worried. Easy 3*s all day

[@blackmoon3860]

As another townhall 16 player I agree. Ever since the introduction of super wall breakers, walls are way less used to hold back troops and more to ruin pathing. The difference between a well designed and mediocre wall layout is so much noticable as an attacker!

[@ngabel8956]

I think walls still have a few uses. 1) Redirecting troops. A lot of layouts isolate key defences from other buildings so troops (even air troops) won't initially target them. 2) Walls slow down stragglers, which can be the difference between a 2 star or a 3 star attack. 3) Walls offer you something to sink your resources into while you wait a week for your other upgrades.

Walls should be expensive, but not overpriced. Right now they are just overpriced where it feels like an annoying chore instead of something to get done. Nobody likes doing them and everyone waits till the last moment to get it done. Up until level 15 walls they are just useless to upgrade as every troop gets stuck on them the rest of the attack. We have so many great air attacks, the root rider, and earth quake spells that theres just no reason to upgrade walls other than to dump remaining resources in when your 5 builders are working. I think they should stay expensive but not as overpriced as they are now

[@miyabiiyt]

I've been thinking about this every time I log into the game, walls are *so* expensive starting at like Town Hall 9.

Also reducing the wall hitpoints by 10-20% across all levels would make ground attacks far more popular across every town hall

think walls also have a psychological effect too. A base looks more intimidating if it got max walls for their th lvl. for example, if your a th10. what are the odds that you attack a base with weak walls but strong defence vs a base with max walls but weak defence. you probably go for the base with weak walls and strong defence because a base just looks weaker if it got weak walls. so i totally agree that walls are too expensive. so you basically upgrade walls for the intimidation effect only because of as you states in the video, air troops dominates the higher lvls

I'm a Th12, at Champions 2. For the past 3 months now, I have been exclusively attacked by Electro Dragons and Dragons. My walls only stop the heroes, but they do that beautifully.

[@NicoXBlack]

Kinda have the same opinion about how Hero upgrades work. They are absolutely essential in every single attack, so why do I gotta wait days and later on even weeks to efficiently attack again when I go for an upgrade? I can't use them while they upgrade, so might as well not even attack. I know it might not be the biggest deal ever, since grinding loot is moreso the priority in higher TH regions and you don't specifically need the Heroes for that, but it still bothers me. If we could still use the Heroes while they are upgrading just how we can still use regular troops when they are upgrading in the lab I'd have no issues at all. Or even better, although that might be too much to ask for: Make it just like the new Hero abilities! Once you have the ressources, you can instantly upgrade them. Again, that might be a bit too good tho.

[@Alex-02]

The reason your last suggestion doesn’t work is because there is no limit to how much dark elixir you can farm. Equipment resources however are designed such that you can only earn a certain amount each day so kinda has the upgrade time built in in that way.

It's an easy fix. Step 1: Buff air defense damage per second so that a base laid out well can defend against an army made out of just air troops and not allow any 3 stars. Step 2: give us more walls at every level. Step 3: Code the game so that ground troops that jump over or go under walls can only do so on walls that are single stacked. Meaning that with the extra walls at each level you can place them back to back against each other to avoid them being bypassed. Also, make the jump spell not work against double stacked walls as well. This would make it so you can decide which buildings to defend better and force units like hogriders to break a wall before jumping the next.

I upgrade them to flex 💀

[@fexinity8260]

Walls complete the theme of your townhall level. They dont have have to be upgraded but for people who want to have a max base and complete the theme they max the walls also. If everything was easy and fast the game would be boring

[@ayss0000]

0:07 to be specific, home village only. Lv.10 capital peak town hall has 40,000 hp.

[@warriorx86]

It would be fun to have future walls with weapons that sends electric shock to troops that are trying breach it.. something like Tesla Walls 😅

[@JazzReaper]

Or walls, that when broken, leave a small radius of poison for a few seconds

[@CellingPum]

8:55 Did somebody say *being ignored by a bunch of different armies*

[@davidwhite3143]

I have seen walls even today stop a 3-star by troops getting stuck and time out….. Walls are vital

[@adi.b_builds]

I totally agree with this point!

[@bev6713]

In case of cost, it is bad, but its way better than it was years ago. I remember maxxing walls on th9 i th10 when it was the top. It was taking weeks of hard grind. Best farm were giving you 300-500k of each resource. You could upgrade with gold only. Way less dead villages and packed collectors. Army costed elixir etc. Now you can easily find farms up to 1.5kk (on my th) 700k + are basically everywhere and since ton of them are dead and progress bases you can get it with just heroes or some super goblins. That means no cooldown, you can attack without waiting for training which is easier as well thanks to boosts that are available from multiple sources (it was only gems back then). There is a lot of events which give you resource, bonuses, costs reductions etc. Thanks to all of that (and more I probably forgot to mention) I maxxed th11 walls in 3 days during which I didn't even grind that hard since I've got work.

[@JuliaJuanaAlvarez]

Walls are still important, not only do they slown down your heroes like king and queen but also can redirect them. Plus alot of low level wals can easily be destroyed by a lightning or earthquake spells. Having like Level 5 or lower walls at th 15 is like there isn't even an obsticle. Upgrading all your walls also gives players something to do inbetween the updates of the other buildings and even till the new townhall. Walls are important, if any than airtroops are just to op

[@Post_the_most]

Especially as it prevents overflowing Elixir and Gold while upgrading your heros

[@JuliaJuanaAlvarez]

@@Post_the_most True, especially with the crazy update times of later TH levels, you easily get your storages full before there is a new builder available

[@Jericho27]

They should add a upgrade where you can make like 20 of your walls spit a wall of flames up or something so flying troops have to go around them or wait for those walls to be broken/ break them themselves.

[@nikkijennings3778]

After level 7 walls they should have walls that damage air units and ground attacks. Like "electrified" walls or air walls that provide a slight push back! 🤔

[@WiSe0014]

That will just make them broken and the game more hard to play, no one would be 3 staring bases anymore then

[@nikkijennings3778]

@WiSe0014 make what broken? Why couldn't anyone win 3 stars? And it's HARDER not "more hard"!

[@bharatmatakayoda]

Bruh three already a reason why we don't have 3rd air sweper but bro still wants walls that attack air

[@nikkijennings3778]

@bharatmatakayoda I used "air walls" as an example! And it wouldn't have to be every piece of the wall but as an added dynamic for different types of strategies BRUHH

[@bharatmatakayoda]

@@nikkijennings3778 okay fair point but it shouldn't start from Level 7 it just kills that's a bit better overpowered for defense side

[@shotarosann3914]

The fact that any level of earthquake can bring down any level wall stills breaks my heart

[@hercules_E164K]

They just need to make the walls upgradeable with dark elixir as that's the easiet to get (in my experience) and I'm usually overflowing with it. It would be nice to be able to dump my spare dark elixir into the walls just for an aesthetic upgrade to my base because at the end of the day the walls are mostly there for the looks at the highest level.

[@havod8481]

the biggest impact of wall is the mental one a full maxed village with maxed wall is way more intimidating than a maxed village with wall with 2 or 3 level missing

[@scottanderson691]

Because walls have been a joke since eDrags were added and it's only become worse as time goes on. Walls are pointless. They're the most expensive decoration flex in the game.

[@xelp435]

Haven’t touched clash of clans since 2016 but still enjoyed the video

[@ThatNerdGuy0]

Its one of those problems where your base is as strong as its weakest wall, so if you want to put two layers of wall around a defense such as a cannon (as an example, this would be terrible in practice) you need to place 44 walls, but your attacker only needs to break 2.

[@celloj3703]

Walls are literally the only reason I can’t build my town hall as fast as I’d like

[@murilosotti3401]

To be honest, the thing that bothers me the most is the fact that you need a builder to upgrade the walls, feels so bad to have a builder doing nothing just so you can level you your walls

[@Messifan528]

Imagine you spent your whole gold storage in wall just for it to get one tap by rootrider☠️

[@smaug9833]

Walls are the most visible structure in the game considering the number of tiles they take, so people use it for intimidation. I only ever upgrade walls if all storage is overflowing and I can't dump the gold anywhere else.

[@cody2980]

not upgrading walls is like not hitting legs at the gym. Some people are fine with it but for most it adds an extra nice look and grind

[@tyfulcher9761]

Update walls to be adjustable for defense, allow upgradable walls like electric or fire damage over time or ice for slow, gives players more customizable options and makes walls useful again. But only allow 1-2 types of walls at the same time.

[@aljazturk8483]

Maybe they should add tall walls starting from th4/5 so the attacks get more creative

[@aningthoucha]

Walls have become a decoration now😂

[@theolwinkledink]

They must have extensive data about the time it takes for a player to upgrade all walls. Proportionally scale the price down so that you finish them roughly the same time you max out the rest of the buildings.

[@IronWolf123]

When I look for bases to attack, I focus more on the town hall specific defences. I ignore wall levels because my Barbarian King has the ability where he can destroy walls

[@loggerT123]

Walls are so expensive because building them is instantaneous. It's like clan capital.

[@mrmilkshake9824]

I think heros are worst now. With the hero abilities being separate from the level making it very hard to justify having the heros upgrade for 2 months straight each just to mex them for your town hall.

[@abiyyupanggalih854]

Wall in Clash of Clans : 😂😂 wall in Clash Royale : 💀💀

[@corynay6387]

They should add 2 types of walls, normal wall and the high wall, the high wall cant be bypassed by troops and spells like hog rider and jump spell, while also being harder to break. Also a new fence like a force feild or smth, low hp air troops like balloons & minions cant enter it because they will be killed instantly, and it will deal alot of dmg to other air troops, the defence should only be active for the first 30-45s of the game though
