They treat every single match as a high-stakes duel, resulting in massive ladder anxiety and a fear of experimenting with new strategies.

Friendly Battles, conducted within your clan, offer a completely stress-free, consequence-free environment to test your skills.

The Safe Zone for Experimentation

The primary use of Friendly Battles is to test brand new, unproven deck concepts before risking them on the competitive ladder.

This allows F2P players to find out exactly how a maxed-out deck will perform without having to spend millions of gold upgrading the cards first.

• Learn exactly what health a tower must be at for your Rocket to finish it.
• If you lose to a specific card on the ladder, ask a clanmate to play that card against you repeatedly until you figure out the counter.
• Host mini-tournaments within your guild just for bragging rights.

Muscle Memory Training

Beyond macro-level deck testing, Friendly Battles are the only place you can safely 'drill' incredibly specific micro-interactions.

In a Friendly Battle, you can ask your clanmate to send a Bandit down the lane ten times in a row.

Stronger Together

Finally, constantly engaging in Friendly Battles builds massive respect and camaraderie within your guild.

Stop stressing over your trophy count for a few hours.
