Clash of Clans is set to ditch Troop Training times in major overhaul

Clash of Clans is about to get a massive upgrade: troop training times are being completely eliminated! Get ready for near-instant army deployment and lightning-fast battles. However, this means it's now or never for your Training Potions and Treats – use them before they're gone! These will be removed from in-app purchases and chest rewards, though they'll remain available in the Trader and Gold Pass for a limited time. After the month is up, they'll be converted to Gems.

While Clash of Clans holds a special place in mobile gaming history, it's no secret that some aspects feel dated. Supercell has been diligently modernizing the game, and this change is arguably the most significant yet. Following the removal of training costs in 2022, training times are now being scrapped.

To help players adapt to this instant army deployment, Supercell is introducing "Match Anytime." This new feature allows you to attack a snapshot of another player's base when no real-time opponents are available. You'll still earn rewards, but the defending player won't lose resources if their base is attacked this way. This mechanic is already used in Clan Wars and Legend League, but now it becomes standard.

Other changes are also on the horizon, including the introduction of Elixir or Dark Elixir costs for army donations. For complete details on all the upcoming updates, check out the official Supercell blog.
