“Fixed alliance war matchmaking”

Zomagedon

I’m noticing no difference at all with the matchmaking. It’s still as unfair as it was last season for our alliance. We are battling an alliance that’s well over double our alliance rating, It’s still only based on war rating.

Bronze against Gold, just incase someone tries to make the "punching above their weight" excuse.

Exact same war rating. This is as fair as you'll get. If you cant win then you'll drop down. Simple as that.

Just stop. Drop down from what? Bronze 3? Against a Gold 3? Just stop.

Nah. They wanna complain when its stated that war matches now match of war rating. Yet they get surprised when it's a completely even war rating to their opponents. Either win or lose. But dont complain when it's doing what it's supposed to.

Looking pretty fair to me.

There are stone brackets below Bronze3. There are rewards there too crafted for low allies 😁

No, the whole argument was people were punching above their weight and they had to be knocked down to their "place". That doesn't apply here. You have an Alliance trying to come up, Bronze 1 last Season, Bronze 3 this, and they're facing side effects from changing it so drastically. Enough with the "War Rating is gospel".

Last season rankings mean nothing this season. War ratings are the only things that matter now. This is a reset and it’ll take some time to sort out.

That’s perfect matchmaking, war rating is the same

Well its kabams game. they make the rules. Rules say war rating is the gospel at the moment. Take it or leave it.

Gold, bronze, silver, platinum - those are rewards categories and have no bearing on matchmaking.
Your war rating determines your alliance power. It just means your war rating is inflated and all this time you got more rewards than you should.
If you only fought other 6mil alliances and beat them all, that means that in a couple months you can end in Master lol.
Kabam realized their previous system could allow for that and now they're correcting it. The matchmaking system is perfect. And it will balance out over the course of this season.

I will continue to point out these side effects because unlike some, I'm not willing to ignore the problems people are facing.

Except I'm pretty sure you've stated quite a few times your done with the back and forth. so which is it. Kabam said war rating rules. If you dont like it, tell them. Instead of spamming each and every matchmaking post that kabam is wrong.

Seems like Bronze3 was punching above their weight.
They will get what they deserve at the end of the season. Whether that is Bronze1 or a Stone bracket.

Looks even to me. That war rating is a perfect match!

You're not willing to stop acting like a petulant child instead of the grown ass middle aged man that you are.

All of your arguments have been wrong since this system has been implemented, every single one.

You mean as opposed to spamming it that everything is right because the War Ratings are the same and it will all balance out? Pretty sure the other side can have a voice too.

Bronze3 is a fairly big pool. If they were high enough up, then it's still possible they could remain in bronze3.

It's the fact they're coming up against a Gold 3 that's almost 3 times their size.

Same with bronze1. Big pool

It is right. Kabam has made that rule. If you really want it changed, go to the suggestions forum.

This is a perfect counter example to your pi not war rating equals skill.Dispite having a good PI they were apparently not skilled enough to maintain that gold rating so dropped down.

Some people here aren’t understanding. We’ve been in bronze 1 for the past 10 seasons, and we haven’t been able to get any higher because of the matchmaking and it keeps putting us against way better alliances because we have similar war ratings. Just because we have the same war rating, that doesn’t mean we have any chance at beating an alliance that’s leagues above us. Just because things are more fair for the higher up alliances, it doesn’t justify how us players in bronze are being treated. I don’t understand why it can’t be based off of both alliance rating AND ALSO war rating. Or better yet, why not get rid of war rating all together, because it only really makes things worse for alliances that are trying their best to come up. I don’t see how this “new” system is “putting us in our place” when we’ve always been in bronze for 10 seasons anyways. We don’t even have a real chance to win this time. No one can convince me I’m in a fair war just because of war rating alone. It’s not like I can get back to bronze 1 with this kind of matchmaking, now my alliance is stuck in bronze 3, which is even worse. At first we were able to get into silver 2, then it got worse and worse overtime and now we are struggling to stay in bronze. It’s all BS.
