Creating a Clan
Ready to create your own Clan? Doing so is very simple, but does involve a bit of consideration and Gold. Here’s a brief rundown on how to create your clan:


 * 1) To get started, tap the Community button in the bottom navigation menu.
 * 2) From there, tap the “Create Clan” button.
 * 3) After that, you’ll be presented with a variety of settings you’ll need to set, including:
 * 4) * Name
 * 5) * Badge
 * 6) * Description
 * 7) * Location
 * 8) * Type
 * 9) * Required Medals
 * 10) Once you’ve entered and decided upon your various Clan settings, click the “Create” button at the bottom. Please note, this process costs 5,000 Gold.

Name
The name of your Clan will be shown publicly. Please keep in mind that Clan names aren’t unique and have a maximum character limit of 16. In addition, any names that are found to be in violation of our Terms of Service will be cause for the Clan to be deleted.

Badge
Your clan’s badge will be displayed in a variety of places, including the Clan Leaderboard and on each of your clanmates’ player profiles. Each badge has three components (e.g. frame, background, and icon) and the color tint of each of those components can be customized. Please note, some customization options must be unlocked before being able to use them and are usually unlocked as your clan increases its level (please note, this functionality will be added in a later update).

Description
This is a space to describe those fundamental aspects of your Clan. Please note, this is the primary way to attract players to your clan and is an ideal space to include aspects that may be relevant to them. In addition, the character limit is 256.

Location
Your designated location will help other players get an idea of a number of things regarding your clan. This may include your language(s) of choice and time zone. Keep in mind, this is also used as a filter in Clan Search.

Type
There are currently two different types of clans available - “Public” and “Application Only”. Public clans are visible and open to any players that meet your required medals threshold. Clans that are set to Application Only require a General or Lieutenant to approve a player’s application before they’re allowed into the Clan.

Required Medals
This option allows you to set the minimum amount of medals a player must have before being allowed to enter your clan.

Modifying Clan Settings
At any point after creating your clan, its various settings can be changed by those members with the permission to do so (i.e. General & Lieutenants). To modify your settings:


 * 1) Navigate to your Clan profile. This can be done by clicking on your Clan’s name from your Clan chat.
 * 2) From there, tap on your Clan name, located next to your badge.
 * 3) This will open up your Clan Settings where you can edit all relevant information.

Promoting Clan Members
Clan management does not fall on the shoulders of the General alone. Clan members can be promoted to a higher rank, which provides them with administrative privileges. Currently, we only have three ranks, but plan to add additional ones in the future:


 * 1) General: This is the founder of the Clan and has all administrative rights and permissions, including:
 * 2) * Modifying clan settings
 * 3) * Approving applications
 * 4) * Kicking members
 * 5) * Changing membership levels
 * 6) Lieutenant: These members share the same administrative rights and permissions as a General
 * 7) Sergeant: These members have administrative rights over chat
 * 8) Private: These members have no administrative rights and/or permissions

Chat Functionality
One of the standout features of Clans is the ability to connect with your clanmates using the built-in chat functionality. To get started, simply tap the chat button from your Clan tab.

Currently, our chat supports:


 * Posts up to 256 characters
 * Reactions
 * Emojis
 * Certain Clan notifications

Leveling & Gaining XP
Clans gain more and more benefits as they level up. This includes:


 * Increased maximum member count (up to 50 members at level 5)
 * Better rewards in Clan Chests
 * Access to new customization options (coming soon)

Gaining XP
Clans gain XP in two ways:


 * Completing Supply Drops
 * Donating cards (coming soon)

For Supply Drops, Clans will gain XP based on the highest Clan Chest they obtain during the Supply Drop. Each Clan Chest will provide a certain amount of XP:


 * Clan Chest Level 1 - 100 XP
 * Clan Chest Level 2 - 200 XP
 * Clan Chest Level 3 - 300 XP
 * Clan Chest Level 4 - 400 XP
 * Clan Chest Level 5 - 500 XP
 * Clan Chest Level 6 - 600 XP
 * Clan Chest Level 7 - 700 XP
 * Clan Chest Level 8 - 800 XP
 * Clan Chest Level 9 - 900 XP
 * Clan Chest Level 10 - 1000 XP

Supply Drops
Supply Drops are a great way for Clans to get rewarded for participating in Clan activities. Once a Supply Drop is activated, all Clan members can contribute Hero-Stars (e.g. 3-star victories) to increase the level of the Supply Drop, up to its max level (this is based on the level of the Clan).

Supply Drops last for a total of 6 days, which includes up to 3 days for leveling up the Clan Chest to its maximum amount and then a cooldown period. At the conclusion of the first phase of the Supply Drop, all valid participants will obtain a Clan Chest, which contains a selection of Cards, Gems, and Gold. Afterwards, the Supply Drop will be in a cooldown period before the next one starts. Again, this process lasts a total of six days regardless of how long it takes for the Clan to reach the maximum Clan Chest level.

Qualifying for a Clan Chest
To qualify for the Clan Chest, a member must:


 * Be a member of the Clan before the Supply Drop starts
 * Must be a member for the duration of the Supply Drop
 * Must contribute at least one Hero-Star
