  18. Prep minimums

    in Community Discussion

    Posted

    I'd like to hear everyone's thoughts on minimum prep pulls.

     

    Clans have recently integrated a 'prep minimum' where both ranks of x and y clan agree on a minimum pull for a clan wars fight. For example: if a minimum of 25 persons is agreed to, and clan x pulls 25, but clan y only pulls 24, clan y must fight down 1 person.

     

    You can argue that this encourages clans to pull more, and have higher opted fights. I mean, does clan x - who pulls 50 - really want to prep clan y - who pulls 25 - when this means they have to sit around half of their pull?

     

    But, at the same time, aren't clan wars fights supposed to be fair, 1 vs. 1, MATCHED fights to see who the better man for man clan is? It is a very real scenario that one clan can meet the minimum, but have 10 invites, and the opposing clan misses out on the minimum by 1 person, and then has to fight down 1. Doesn't this make the whole 'prep minimum' rule redundant?

     

    This poses a few questions for me...

     

    • Is this a healthy direction for clan wars fights?
    • Is this a rule brought in by clans who create unrealistic minimums for their opponents, just to make off with cheap wins? 
    • Would 'prep mins' even be a thing if it wasn't for sharkbrew and it's Clan Wars League Table? 
    • Are clans and their leaders scared to lose incase it makes them look bad?
    • Should clans be punished if they do not meet the agreed minimum pull?
