**WINTER OF WOE - BONUS OBJECTIVE POINT**
As previously announced, the team will be distributing an additional point toward milestones to anyone who completed the Absorbing Man fight in the first step of the Winter of Woe.
This point will be distributed at a later time as it requires the team to pull and analyze data.
The timeline has not been set, but work has started.

There is currently an issue where some Alliances are are unable to find a match in Alliance Wars, or are receiving Byes without getting the benefits of the Win. We will be adjusting the Season Points of the Alliances that are affected within the coming weeks, and will be working to compensate them for their missed Per War rewards as well.
Additionally, we are working to address an issue where new Members of an Alliance are unable to place Defenders for the next War after joining. We are working to address this, but it will require a future update.

With 2 Wars left, it's safe to say the Matchmaking hasn't been rebalanced. I'm asking, please take the interim to devise a better way to rebalance things than Matches that are way out of sync. It took many Seasons for things to get to where we are, and it's going to take longer for things to settle out than a few weeks or even a Season. The Season results this Season aren't even a reflection of actual skill because you have one side going up and up based on overpowered Matches, one side going down and down, and neither will show where they actually stand until both balance out and get to play fairly. It's demotivating to even play it. The Season is a competition, and it has to be a fair one from start to finish. For everyone.

Saying there's no such thing as a fair system is a contradiction. That was the whole argument for War Rating being used. There's no such thing as a perfect system, sure. What there CAN be is a system that is as fair for everyone as it can be. The Season this Season was a mess. People got placed in insanely disproportionate Matches, the ones that didn't have a chance fell, and the ones that they came up against didn't really earn anything.
What there can absolutely be is a better way to balance things and implement War Rating that doesn't result in making half the Players want to walk away from War because they're being side swiped.
I’m 100% glad kabam did what they did. It finally allows the alliances who deserve to be in each bracket face alliances with the same or similar war rating. Not saving weaker alliances.
Personally, my alliance didn’t get any mismatches in either direction - all of our matches held similar prestige and total alliance rating. Incidentally, we did move from T3 to float between T1-2, looking like we’ll finish Plat 1 compared to last season’s Plat 2.
