Its not always easy to see that auto-tuning in effect, but this kind of degenerate case magnifies it in ways that make it a lot more obvious by virtue of its absence. I suppose it has been done to stop the practice of 'resetting' war rating (i.e all members reforming a new alliance) for easy loyalty that some complained of. I'm not sure how you mitigate against that, but this doesn't seem right. Alliances essentially stuck in whatever tier they're in.

Why is the defender hidden on node 49 only ? Is this related to war tier? We've never seen this but this was our first time on the Challenger map. And if this is intended.... why? Why only this 1 node??

Why only this 1 node?? It’s like been like in at least t1-3, idk about anything lower then that.

It definitely isn't hidden in tier4 and below.

Agreed, it is taking longer than ever before and if nothing was changed with matching then something is bugged and needs to be corrected.

I've heard a report that match making may have been reverted recently to the original version or something similar, because match making seems faster and matches seem to be with alliances with similar war rating and dissimilar alliance rating.
