šŸ§Ŗ Early Information on Friendly Matches [Part of The Beta Beat V35]

The main thing I am looking forward to for this is not so much getting feedback from others attacks on my team but the benefit of being able to possibly try out strategies against certain hero lineups I might struggle against without the food cost of rerolling to find it. Just a quick chat with alliance members " hey can someone set a xyz tank/ minion/ DoT/ Heavy damage/ time consuming D for a second till try some lineups out"

Youā€™ve made that abundantly clear, in many posts nowā€¦ and thatā€™s a fair point of view. Time to move on.

Long overdue but glad its being added. This should just be practice without rewards so it shouldnā€™t require any type of energy.
Would be nice to add a between alliance members. Alliance leaders could have options for type of tourney (rush attack, bloody battle) and duration( 8 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours)

Why is there a energy limit, on a friendly match!? There is no reward, no ranking, players are just testing their defensesā€¦ Why everything in the game must generate some kind of profit for SG? Canā€™t you just create nice and cool stuff that makes players play more, and be more motivated?

You really think I write here simply because I want everyone to know that I see no benefit?

Ermā€¦ yeah :confused:

Ermā€¦wrong x 20 characters

MAKE IT UNLIMITED ATTACKS. There is plenty of money to be made already in the game. Just let us try our teams and test our friends defenses. Iā€™ll be absolutely livid if an energy system is implemented for this. Iā€™ve played plenty of games that allow unlimited alliance fights between each other. This game is getting ridiculous on micro transactions.

Also allow us to attack our own defense. WITH NO ENERGY COST.

Everything in this game is limited and regulated. That is the reality. In many ways thatā€™s a good thing. Itā€™s created a long term, thinking personā€™s game.

Why would this be any different?

(Rhetorical question. I donā€™t want to open another can of moan. Really please no.)

Very excited for this. It will be awesome to get feedback from alliance mates about defense team synergy etc.

When I thought of this event I named it boxing ring or ring, I did it thinking of teaching other members of the Alliance the importance of placing heroes in defense teams, ā€¦ and of course I imagined it thinking that two or more members of that combat can observe it at the time it is carried out.
Does anyone know if it is possible that two or more members of the Alliance can watch the game at the same time ā€¦ which I suppose?
Since otherwise it would make very little sense.

I LOVE this New Featureā€¦

But hereā€™s 7 reasons why I hate itā€¦

  1. money Grubbers!!
  2. we should get 4* ascensions for this
  3. why canā€™t it be 5.5 flags/day?!?!?
  4. see number 1
  5. see number 1,2 and 3 unless itā€™s 4
  6. this needs a nerf! 4 flags for good players
  7. if I lose can I nerf my alliance members heroā€™s? Asking for a friend

Iā€™m joking Iā€™m joking! Peace and Joy Everyone

You should know that we all have our different views of entertainments; what I mean is I should have option either to participate or not, be it def/attack irrespective of if there is anything to lose or not!

I am not against your opinion, I just want to be sure that I understand what you mean.

So you want the option to not get attacked by alliance member, just as in raid you have the option to use shield to avoid getting raided. However, in this case, as Friendly Match is without reward, then that shield should be free in the form of opt-out option, right?

I actually donā€™t get why you would want to opt out on defense. No penalty or reward for a friendly match up.

You donā€™t have to actively participate so no time commitment and you donā€™t need to engage with attacker or results if you donā€™t want toā€¦

ā€¦from an attacking point of view you have effectively opted out if you donā€™t use flags.

Help me understandā€¦

I agree. The only rationale I can come up with is if you feel forced to change your team because your alliance wants you to either because they want to practice or because via practice they show how bad your team is. If they make it opt-in so many people will never bother to opt in. As someone that would be interested in practice from time to time, I donā€™t want my alliance members to be able to opt out. The downside is seeing one personā€™s defense repeatedly defeated, but thatā€™s good feedback.

I can understand why someone might not want to be attacked by someone they know. It can get irritatingā€¦

I can see the notifications getting irritatingā€¦but the attacking itself?

Having said that, I will check in with our 4700+ players to make sure they are OK with being attacked, as the rest of the clan is lining up to have a crack at their defense teamsā€¦

I can only think of a reason for it to be longer time interesting :slight_smile:
