This is not cheating but merely exploiting an allowed mechanic.
Taka knows this. It's legal.
Fact of the matter is, it takes more than a couple of players to KO a tower build. Albeit you need to assassinate their troops down to get it, it nullifies attack builds who have weak spy attacks.
Here is where it becomes a "glitch". If it says DTW, but you're full troops, this misleads the average player.
But, as said earlier, if everyone converts to this build, it's turtle wars all over again.
This new war system is fun. I liked it until my clan was dismantled by a "build". Sure coordination is a factor, but believe me, Foxes are very coordinated and look what Taka did to us....
Not taking anything away from them, a clan matched up against a clan heavy with this build stands no chance.
It needs to be eliminated to maintain an even playing field.
