God forbid!
As I've said elsewhere, if you can't beat the team you are drawn against then why do you deserve the same reward/rating
Alliances tank war ratings across ALL tiers to start lower and win their way up. So doing it in the off season doesn’t make sense. It’s been proven to be so.
Just ignore this season, play item free, and let yourself float to your equilibrium war rating. Matchups will be much better after that.
Nowadays, our matchmaking is so bad. Specially after the introduction of new map and nodes.
This is data of my alliance,
This is our opponent team.
Please Stop matchmaking by comparing with war rating.
In off season, war ratings can be reduced by loosing the wars,
Either stop redusing war rating in off season.
Or
You guys can match with the alliance prestige.
Or .
Matchmake with a new technique.
Like,
Alliance war count.
Win percent.
Or something else..
Kindly please please avoid these horror matchmaking..

Quite rightly you will now match someone on war rating only - look at the global list and u will see who has what rating, so should not be a surprise
Only 1 set of rewards in MCOC wars. You seem to imply you are entitled to the same prize as much bigger Alliances because account size shouldn't be a factor which is not how the game works.
Act 6 doesn't scale based on your account size. Why should wars?
You both ended in Gold 3 last Season and have the same war rating. What’s the issue? Can’t beat an alliance ranked in the SAME reward bracket and have the SAME war rating?
Says a lot, doesn’t it?
If matchmaking is done off prestige then you end up with the result that we previously had: smaller alliances vaulting large alliances in the rankings without actually having to beat them. To use my alliance as an example, we're ~30m or so and around 9.5k prestige and we fight T2 wars. Two seasons ago we were sitting happily in P1, only fighting alliances with a similar prestige/size to us, and you could argue that we had an inflated position because we're not coming across the 45m alliances full of R3 6* defences. Our alliance was the highest rated alliance that NoName, who won a couple of seasons ago, fought (obviously they beat us), but there's no way that it is fair that you can top the leaderboard without facing the best the world has to offer.
Ultimately, this change will probably hurt us, but if we maintain P1 it's because despite our smaller alliance size, it's because we beat the big boys and the smaller alliances who are trying to play for big stakes like us; if we don't make it, well, we'll grow.
Yes, I'm aware that a two point difference is about as close as it gets. Despite your implied conclusion, I'm not moronic.
The issue here is not whether one alliance is more skilled than the other, unless you correlate alliance prestige with skill, but let me try to posting it in a way that then make sense.
The example is that a sunday league team that wins 50% of their matches, suddenly gets paired with a professional team, because they also happen to have won 50% of their matches.
Despite what Hollywood may have given you the impression of, no, the Sunday league team doesn't win by sheer pluck and a clever game plan.
So my complaint is, while obviously alliance prestige playing into matchmaking had flaws, at least it did attempt to minimize matches that were grossly unbalanced, power-wise.
This system will too, in time. Now is just the phase at which your overly inflated war ratings will backfire against you and you get matchups against stronger alliances due to it.
Matchmaking has beem broken for many seasons, this is the first war of a new season which won't make or break your entire season.
As it was before alliances with 35 million rating may have been stuck in gold 3 constantly fighting alliances with 35 million rating as well. Rewards in gold 3 won't help progress an account much when its already over 1+ million rating.
This new war matchmaking will help distribute rewards to those accounts deserving of them and who can actually use them
You've only showed that for the last few seasons you were getting rewards you shouldn't have. The alliance your now matched with is clearly stronger and thus deserving of better rewards. Why should you get the same rewards or better than alliances that you can't beat
Oh. Maybe you guys are right.
But Bros, they are double of our alliance, maybe I can do, but not all my family can't. Few are new , few are learning, few are busy, few are talented. It's a mixed multinational Alliance.
We felt this so bad. And I shared behalf of them.
Thanks.
