Our AW tier dropped from tier 5 to tier 6 sometime during this war hiatus.

We had matched in tier 5 for wars 7 and 8 prior to their cancellation, and had won war 6. Now the war room shows us in tier 6!

    Our AW-Tier dripped from 3 to 4 despite the season was put on hold and no war took place. The war-rating ist still the same ... dropping a tier means less points because of the lower multiplier. anyone else noticed this?

    Did you lose your last played war? Sometimes the tier updates later

    we‘ve been at tier 3 after the first war was cancelled... since the last played war ended last tuesday, that should have been long enough to update the ranks

    Same here after the wars were cancelled we dropped a tier

    One possibility (if it wasn’t right after your last real war ended that you checked, but also much later well after all of the wars ended and into the next wars matching and defense placement)...

    Could be since Tiers are technically based on “Percentage” that your ally is relative to how many Ally's exist (unlike final Medal Ranks, which are Fixed-Number of Slots). That you were close enough to bottom of the Tier, and since then enough NEW Ally's have been created, could result in being dragged down a tiny bit for those right on the edge.

    Hadn’t thought of that before, but could account for a few other posts from time to time here (besides the normal being matched against a cross-tier opponent).
    Maybe New Alliances shouldn’t be counting towards the 100% Tier Breakdown until they have finished their first War Season.

    Ours dropped from tier 5 to tier 6.

    We were matched in a tier 5 war for both wars 7 and 8 before they were cancelled. And yes, we won war 6

    This should push you the opposite way.

    Say you're number 5 out of 100 (5%). If you add a 900 alliances to the bottom, you're now 5 out of 1000 (0.5%).

    The only way you'd drop is to eliminate alliances (which could happen if they are banned I guess).

    Yep, lol, got it backwards.
    Maybe Ally's that everyone has left getting deleted (although probably more new ones than deleted ones though).

    Anyone else?

    Me too

    So I just noticed this happened to our alliance as well. We moved up to tier 2 after the last war (we won 6). We were in tier 2 for both wars that got cancelled (wars 7 & 8 we matched and were still in tier 2). But now we are suddenly in tier 3 for the current matchmaking that starts tomorrow. Obviously this is affecting several alliances but still no comment from any of the mods?

    Same for us, we were matched in Tier 5 before it was cancelled, had set up with defence tactics. Now we are in Tier 6 for some reason.

    Same thing happened here. We were tier 4 before war 7, got matched in a war before it was cancelled and now we've dropped to tier 5.
    We also won war 6
  • Anurag1606Anurag1606 Member Posts: 1,181 ★★★
    We dropped from 4 to 5 as well. Last REAL war we did tier 4 and agreed we lost it. But then we were still in tier 4 and matched and that war never started. And now we are looking at t5. That shouldn't happen right?
  • Speeds80Speeds80 Member Posts: 2,017 ★★★★
    Yeah we are the same, won last real war and were in t5 placed for tier 5 defense last war, (the one that didn’t Actually start) and now we are in 6. I’m wondering if the alliances whose war actually started (the early ones) actually got to move up in points if the war got cancelled while they were winning? Or even losing? Like points got added to their season total?
  • GOTGGOTG Member Posts: 1,040 ★★★★
    Same here. Oh well, they can't fix it in time, do they? The season will be affected permanently.

    We went from a loss in tier 2 in the last war to tier 4 now.

    Any updates? Has this been looked into?
  • MrTicTac19992008MrTicTac19992008 Member Posts: 608 ★★★
    No update from Kabam and matchmaking starts very soon.
  • KnightZeroKnightZero Member Posts: 1,450 ★★★★★
    Yeah same. We dropped a tier as well. This will definitely affect season scores and rankings for the affected alliances.
  • Canrdboy36Canrdboy36 Member Posts: 78 ★
    Ours dropped as well, I didn't notice until I saw this thread. I had taken a screen shot when I enlisted us just in case something bad happened and sure enough, today we have dropped
