Unfair AW matchup

How does this happen? Brand new alliance with 5 people getting bulldozed in our first war. Totally unfair

Like....this is a troll post, right? Are we getting trolled?
If you were running 1 BG - then those guys with 14 members aren't even all participating. So it means that these guys are not even seriously running their AW to start with.
If you were running 2 BG/3BG - then it will mean that you are spreading to 1-2 ppl/BG to begin with.
Either scenario - how far do you expect to go with only 5 ppl in an Alliance.
That is not how matchmaking works.
We fight lots of 50m alliances which is 70% bigger, that’s part of the territory. Should we only fight 32m alliances to get our rewards?
Hold on while I win the Premiership but only play Brighton, West Ham, Newcastle and Villa because the rest are rated higher than me and I don’t think it would be fair...
(2) both of you “ARE” actually new alliances, you can see their Creation Date, they are even newer than you are. They just happened to fill up a few more spots a little faster than you.
(3) only “false” compassion of strength is if looking at Total Alliance Rating (which obviously they are higher because they have MORE people than you. The actual individual-based Prestige (as well as Individual Member Rating) is fairly close (in fact REALLY close for 2 such low-end teams).
Unless you are really just asking that any teams with under 10 members should be matched up only against other teams with same less-than-10 members in their Ally.
A.) Deal with running shorthanded and expect to lose because there's likely no one else doing what they are.
Or
B.) Fill in 5 more slots and then run AW.
Not much else one can do here. Matchmaking matches based on war rating and that's that. Expecting Kabam to alter the system based on such a niche situation is a bit unrealistic. You'll also likely end up with lopsided matches in your favor once you have 10 players in. Just the nature of the situation. This Matchmaking system was built with the majority in mind. This situation doesn't represent the majority in CoC AW.
Although on attack, they will actually be able to clear the map with just 6 players (it's not 9 paths like it is in higher tiers).
So then it's just a matter of maybe not being able to match the opponent's Diversity Points, since they may not have a full 10 people place defenders.
