Hello, everyone! I’m Doc Holliday from Clash Kings 2\u2122 and I’m your huckleberry for all things Weight in Clash of Clans. Our understanding of Weight has allowed our Clan to win over 86% of all our Wars, with 300 wins and counting at the time of this writing.<\/p>\n

Controlling your War Weight is how to get a good matchup in Clan Wars. Since Supercell just changed the way it calculates War Weight, it\u2019s a good time to revisit the issue and share with you all the new data.<\/p>\n

War Weight and Clan War Matchmaking Basics<\/h2>\n

Weight is simply the numerical value assigned by Supercell to all Troops, Spells, Heroes, Traps, Walls, and Defenses in Clash of Clans. Upgrading any of these items increases their Weight.<\/p>\n

All Weight is not assigned equally. Each type of item has a different Weight, and the Weight of upgrading each item can change at each level.<\/p>\n

The added Weight of every Troop, Spell, Hero, Trap, Wall and Defense in your Base is your Base Weight.<\/p>\n

During War Search, Supercell adds up the Base Weight of everyone in your Clan who is participating in the War. This total is the War Weight. Supercell matches Clans against others of similar overall War Weight. This means the lower your Clan War Weight, the easier your War opponents will be.<\/p>\n

Certain upgrades carry more added Weight than others. Upgrade a Freeze Spell once, and it will add more Weight than a possible 10 other upgrades combined.<\/p>\n

Knowing the Weights allows us to choose which upgrades to make, and when, based off the added Weight of each item.<\/p>\n

By choosing to upgrade items with lower Weight first, your Base continues to grow strong without adding too much Weight until it is absolutely needed. Keeping your War Weight down prevents you from getting harder opponents during Clan Wars.<\/p>\n

There are hardcore ways to engineer a Base like MiniMax or Defenseless Bases, but Supercell has recently made changes to counteract their effect.<\/p>\n
