I recommend learning the English language, by reading books / hiring an English tutor / moving to an English speaking country, and to more importantly find out if you want to speak the language. If you don't, you could always try to learn something like Spanish or Mandarin to at least communicate with other people from places like Argentina / China (large countries).

If you don't like speaking properly, you could always move to an impoverished neighbourhood in Ireland or Detroit where they don't actually speak English, but instead just a series of random babbles that not even they can understand.

If you don't like speaking normal English or retard English...

Using Potatoe -> Google translate is a nice substitute.

Pros of joining a clan:
Gaining experience*

Cons of joining a clan:
Bad leadership
No usefulness
Dictatorships
Hijackings

*-may not gain experience

If you want to get better then I recommend you do the following things.

1. Read the strat guides and play the game until they make sense. There are some things that will take you a year to understand or notice when you can just read it in an hour. It is a very fast way to learn the game.

2. Understand that nothing in WL's autogames random. Who moves first, gets cards, uses cards, how many armies you kill while attacking, how many armies you kill while defending, and mutli player move order can be calculated/estimated with knowledge on hand before you make your moves (in most situations). If you lost it is because your play style was inferior. Accept this and move on. Blaming your defeat on randomness or on others cheating or luck will not help you move forward in your training.

3. Look at history. DO NOT SKIP TO END. History will give you all of the information necessary to defeat your enemy and if you don't use it then your enemy will and he/she will have that much more advantage over you. You can also use History to look at your opponents moves and copy their play style (only if they are good players).

4. Recognize the difference between good players and bad players. Look at games between top players on the ladder and try to figure out why one person won and the other lost. You can also look at your own games and compare. Ask questions like "What are they doing that I am not?" and "How did they know before hand what their opponent would do?"

5. After you have completed these steps and answered all of your own questions then join a clan that specializes in training. Several good ones were already mentioned. You need to teach yourself HOW to think before somebody can train you on what to think. Additionally, players will not get frustrated with you as easily if you understand what they are trying to teach.

There are no tangible benefits to joining a clan.

People that worship a person with an elephant head are welcome on WarLight.

^^Please don't use the old "Oh yeah I could defiantly do/be ----- if I actually tried" excuse. The phrase is overused and usually means someone is lying if nothing backs them up-- i.e. game links where they actually try. Besides, knowing the theory doesn't mean you can execute the theory.
I can't back it up, because I never really try. I can teach the OP how to pick effectively, etc. I mainly play WL to relax, because I prefer more tactical games like chess.

Nah. These are cons of joining The Royal Falcons. That's difference.

Nice that you want to help but there really isn't much you can teach without actual strat experience. :/ It's like if you never swimmed in your life and wanted to teach people swimming. Leave it to people who know this stuff in practice.

Thank you Onoma94 and Rogue Nikolai Krogius for the tips and yes reading about the picks gives a good insight for earlier bonuses and income growth-faster and better than trial and error. Some games have different settings for move order-which is very confusing though! Ladder matches and strategic guides, I am seeing right now. After knowing the gist of everything, may be I have to see which game style chooses me and choose a clan(if I still wish)that matches that game style.

Thank you TeamGuns and Lukku-for being ready to teach me,but i am yet to see the commonly played maps and yes, many settings are locked for me. After I level up, i shall create some games with you.

@Colonel H Cardwell, Taran and Bane, seeing the top 10 players as per the points gained in last 30 days,I feel like joining a clan is not that much vital.

@Chatul-may be after I level up, i will look forward for Cats or Felidae.


@Colonel H Cardwell-not all worship same idol in my country and @OxTheAutist- I am not that much fluent in English as (((Tabby Juggernaut))) thinks-but I can manage somehow :)

@ [Falcon] TheFalconGuy-Dictatorship and Hijackings!!!what does that mean!!

Points don't mean too much Maayan. Some level 60+ players can't win 1 out of 4 games and don't know the basics of the game; and even winrates don't mean too much. If you want to know if a player is good, prefer looking at its ladder scores.

Although not perfect either, they're the most reliable and a very accessible skill tracking tool.

Shh...
The obvious must be silenced...

If the clan is good and have what you are interested in this game, yes it is good. Otherwise, it can be really bad.

As you want to learn to play the game, TJC can be a good place to join. We have a good community, several games (diplos, strategics and mafia).

If you are interested, just talk with me or with Cat Juggernaut to join us.

The Falcons haven't had a hijacking for at least a year. Their record is actually better than CORPS.

They do have a total lack of leadership though, which is a downside...

As it turns out, he joined a great clan with a great reputation for being good at strategic games. Congrats.

Great reputation is a debatable point , certain events have tarnished it a little.

Congrats!

Downvoted obnoxious comment telling us how they voted.

Seriously. We don't give a shit. Your spam is just as bad as the shit you're encouraging everyone to downvote. Upvote or downvote as you wish - silently. We don't need to know every time you deem something "unworthy".

Personally, M'Hunters is exactly what comes to mind when I think of clans with clean reputations.

I seem to remember backing knyte up in that case. However, there is no denying M'Hunters has a lot of good strat players.

^ Then you are Semicedevine.
