POOR WAR MATCHING SYSTEM

I sent a ticket to Kabam and all I get are canned and childish answer. For an organization that is pulling in millions of dollar, YOU HAVE TO DO A BETTER JOB with customer service and FIXING THE GAME.
I've never complained or written a post, in five years, till now.
We have moved up the ranks in War over the last three seasons, going from Silver to Platinum and from tier 12 to tier 3 and from the basic map to challenger to expert. All part of the game.
I do think that Tier 3 does not belong in Expert, it should still be part of challenger, especially when you are just breaking into the Platinum 4 range but I can live with this.
What I can't deal with is that during our last war, we had a PI of 2800 and our opponent also had a PI of 2800, on the surface this would seem like a good paring. Till you realize that the alliance you are up against has a 60,000,000 PI rating and the average member has a PI rating of 2,000,000 and the entire defense is composed of mostly awaken six star R2s and even some R3s.
When your alliance just broke 26M and you are facing an alliance that is 60M, that's like putting a high school team vs. a pro team. It's just not fair in any way. Now, I'm not blaming the alliance we went up against, God Bless them for gathering 30 players with 2.0M PI accounts but again, what I"m talking about here is fairness and this was basically a massacre.
I've also learned through my corporate experience that you should not complain unless you can also offer solutions.
So here are some suggestions. For starters, DO NOT JUST RELY ON METRIC LIKE WAR PI. That should be obvious. So what else?
How about at certain Alliance PI Levels, you have to be in a band. Like PIs of 20M to 30M are in the Gold and Plat levels.
My point, is that in no match up system should a 60M PI or even a 50M or 40M PI alliance ever be matched with an alliance that is 20M to 25M.
To date we were G1 and 70th place, we were 7 and 2 with three wars left and if we won the last three we could earn our first P4 placing. I've played sports my entire life and I've won and lost my fair share of competitions. When I lose, I can hang my hat on giving it our best and knowing there was a level playing field. It leaves a bad taste when you lose to an alliance that we should not of been matched up with, if IKABAM had a better system then something as simple as PI war rating. It has to be more then that so situations like this do not happen in the future.
