You have a 13 million alliance with an 851 war rating. How many alliances do you think look like that? The game is looking for an alliance with close to an 851 war rating first (because that represents your war fighting record), and then of those alliances it is looking for one that is relatively close to your alliance rating. The game probably looked for another 13 million alliance with 850-ish war rating, and when it couldn't find one it started looking for any alliance with an 850-ish rating. You can be matched against a 7 million alliance with similar rating, or you can just watch the screen count hours while you get matched against no one.

The game honestly shouldn't be looking at alliance rating at all. This is the source of all the complaints about matches taking forever and people losing entire war opportunities. Matching by alliance rating is like seating the NCAA tournament by ignoring season record and matching the teams up by their average height.

You mean that they loose on purpose between seasons to decrees difficulty and win so many wars in season?

Being matched against someone in the same tier with a similar war rating is completely fair. Just because the other alliance chooses to lose wars doesn’t make it unfair.
