Clash of Clans Town Hall 18 update: Ranked improvements

The developer also announced certain improvements to the Ranked Mode of Clash of Clans. The temporary troops will now be banned from the Ranked Battles, Clan Wars Battles, and CWL Battles.

Furthermore, if a player is inactive in the Ranked Mode for one tournament, they maintain their previous League status and bonuses for that week of inactivity. So, from now on, to keep the same League ranking for the following week, you must sign up for the following week’s tournament before it begins (Tuesday, 5:00 am UTC). The tournament group matchmaking in Ranked Mode will also be less predictable in Ranked Mode.

Leagues 7, 16-27, and 29-31 will receive five new promotion slots, while League 28 will receive 10 new promotion slots. League 28-31 will also receive five new demotion slots. Two attacks will be reduced from the players of Leagues 22 and 23, and four attacks will also be reduced from the players of League 25.

These changes are expected to improve the competitiveness further for players in Ranked Mode. These changes went live on November 17, 2025, after the update.
