Find an opponent and raid online
How matchmaking, deployment, rewards, and troop losses work.

Online raids and Missions
Online raids attack a saved version of another player's office. The opponent does not have to be online. It is an asynchronous battle: each player can play at a different time.
Missions are authored computer-controlled rooms. They are a separate choice when you want a fixed challenge. The game does not invent a fake player when online matchmaking is empty.
Start an online raid
- Reach Desk 2 and train a force that is ready in camp.
- Open Raid → Online raids and review Your raiding team.
- Select Find an office. If you already have a reserved battle, use Resume raid instead.
- Scout the office, choose a troop in the roster, and tap a valid front-edge tile to deploy it.
- Deploy the units you want to commit before using Skip animation.
- Read the confirmed result before returning to your room.
Who you can match with
The current search looks for unshielded player offices within 100 trophies above or below your trophy count. There is no desk-level-gap rule for this search. A low-level account can therefore meet a higher-level room with similar trophies.
There is a 60-second search cooldown, and a defender cannot be reserved by several attackers at once. If all suitable offices are shielded, busy, or outside your trophy range, there may be no match. Try later or choose Missions.
Deployment and skipping
You get a short scouting period. Your first troop placement starts the combat clock, which runs for up to three minutes. Pick a sensible entry and watch the defenses before committing everything.
Skip animation calculates the rest of the fight using the troops already deployed. It does not place every reserve for you. Survivors and undeployed reserves return; troops killed in a real online battle are removed from your trained army.
Rewards come from the defending office
Resource buildings give up loot according to their damage and the resources available in the defending account. A richer office can offer more, but storage protections and raid caps limit the transfer. Destroying decorative art does not create extra money.
The result shows destruction, stars, loot, trophies, XP, gems, and troop losses or returns. Rewards are confirmed by the service rather than granted just because an animation finished. XP and gem rewards have daily limits.
If the connection drops
Return to Online raids and use Resume raid when offered. A reserved or started battle has a time limit and may settle from its recorded deployments. Closing the browser does not guarantee that committed troops or an attack are cancelled.
If the result is awaiting confirmation, retry or resume that same result. Avoid beginning a second action to replace an uncertain first one.
