I am a long time tw1 player who took a long break and came back for tw2.. I have only played w3 and w18 in TW2.
and ive noticed... quite a few in the top ranks boost their villages before nobling them. Is this now how the game is played? I understand late game the idea of nobling barbs that people have used numerous master of loots on will become impractical so it wont happen (atleast not alot).. but it sure seems to be happening alot right now.. I also recognize that people are likely spending money in other ways which are not as easily identifiable. There are many other things you can buy to boost your village production which in turn boosts your rank indirectly that I cannot see just by looking at villages nobled.
But for those who dont know what I am talking about you can take for example Skurzasty's conquest list. As you can see his last 2 villages he nobled were barbs (barb villages were of a person who used to be in his tribe so i dont know if the guy purposefully restarted or what). The 4.2k village Tartak OP was only 2.2k points when the previous owner went inactive. Magically (or in this case likely numerous master of loots were used) in the course of less than a day, the points in the village were raised by 2k and the village nobled. Similarly his village Toronto went from 1.3k as a barb to 2.8k under his control the same day. If you look back far enough his third village Torun also went from a 1.1k barb to a 3.6k village under his control in a day.
Its not just Skurzasty. Mi3szek has done it on multiple villages.. ie 1 village from 1k to 3k and here is another one. Flamekaster also has done it like here.
I could keep going down the list and finding more but I think you get the idea (and im lazy). But there are quite a few in the top ranks who got there in part with money.
Not to mention the top tribe in the world Pain & Destruction has a tribe level of 31 while most everyone else has a tribe rank of 10... which was due to one (or more) of their members dropping a lot of money on coins.
So is this how the early game is now played by many? And if so how much money does it cost to get a village from 1k to 3k through a master of loot... and how much money did it take to get to rank 31 as a tribe... or what other common items are bought early to get a huge lead early on?
On the bright side.. if these players turn out to not be great at the game and cant benefit from the boost they got from buying items then they will eventually will be nobled and better players can benefit from the big villages. But who knows maybe they are also awesome at the game.
(full disclosure i bought a couple rangers early on because I wanted to keep a nuke alive and I felt even dirty doing that... so i guess you can say I paid to win as well... but i didnt use them all. Only used it once.)

. and that was right after i found out that one of the 4-5 people attacking me used 100+ euros... and i knew atleast one of the other used a similar amount.. so yes i used crowns for a wall in that village after crowns took it down in the first place.
