    as others have said it was due to a previously broken unfair matchmaking system that has allowed small alliances to climb up higher than larger alliances where they did not belong.

    now the matchmaking algorithm is changed there will be some bad matchups while the system corrects itself.

    You mean after several rounds of AW, the matchmaking will be tuned into an appropriate algorithm?
    No, he means after several wars your war rating will be fixed to where your supposed to be. If it means you lose all those wars because you were over inflated in prior seasons then so be it.
    This guy gets it
    yep he does

    I understand but all I am saying is that they could have done this is the offseason they screwed us for season rewards

    you cant do it in offseason bc high alliances lose wars then by not playing to start next season vs lower alliances. Thats why warrating is frozen in offseason

    Hi kabam.

    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..

    MIDHUN MAMACHAN 😒😒

    This will happen a lot in next 2-3 weeks as everyone finds their true place and tier.

    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

    There’s a TWO point difference in war rating. That’s as fair as it can be.

    If your alliance is really skilled and deserves the win, you can win it by dying less than the opponent.

    If you can’t win, then what are you complaining about? Lol
    Okay, are you for real?

    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.

    @xNig , @Mauled
    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.

    Below a certain tier war rating is NOT locked.
