Potential Delay to v44.1 Launch
We are currently working through some issues that may affect the release window of v44.1. This means that the update may not release on Monday as it usually does. We are working to resolve the issue holding us up as quickly as possible, but will keep you all updated, especially if the delay results in any changes to the content release schedule.

it would bring about some needed change?
What about 3*?
What about rank 1, rank 2, rank 3 or rank 4 4* champs?
What about rank 1 or rank 2 5* champs?
They are all very easy to kill for top alliances and no one would place them in a real war.
Any word on if you guys are going to be punishing alliance's who are doing 2* wars? Doesn't seem quite fair to punish one alliance for matching up with a sister alliance, to get an easy win, when other alliances are doing pretty much the same thing but instead of placing no defenders they're placing 2*'s... a Free win is a Free win no matter how it's done & equal punishment should be given imho.
Violations From Kabam's TOS:
1. Intentionally interfere with the operation or fair play of any Services available on the Websites or through any Third Party Platform, or any other user’s enjoyment of such Services;
You could also say they violated this by using mutamatt's AW Opponent Calculator to know who they're fighting so that they could arrange a deal.
2. Use features of the Websites or Services for anything other than their intended purpose, including exploiting glitches for personal gain;
They exploited the +/- feature for AW Matchmaking to know who they would be facing, then contact them via line to setup an arrangement.
Well poo if it is.
So it is not showing the context or mentioning anything like “a 2* war in this manner” or similar...
But if its legit great to see they view it as cheating. Now we just need to wait and see how they treat it. Do they ignore it? Do they ban? Do the deduct points? Do they remove rewards?
Yes its legit . I asked if it is ok for me to arrange a 2star war as i saw no punishment for that and i could use some easier wars .And this is their answer . That it is against TOS.
I'm curious now what is gonna happen.

We know about your policy and that nothing is discussed on forums, however, given a 10k views hot boiling topic around and season about to end, it would be good to know that "you've discussed it and came to a conclusion".
there is no need to declare what said conclusion is or will be, as long as we know you worked on the matter. Tonights leaderboard will answer that.
Ne aware that 2* wars will be the trademark for the last wars would of this go unpunished, tho. It's been and still is the talk on all chats. There's even private chats for platinum forming up to organize 2* matchups would Kabam not punish and factually allowing them.
Makes sense. What’s to deter alliances from colluding in 2 star war agreements for the remainder of the season?
I hope that a review is done on many top alliance to make sure they didn't participate in this cheating. If they did I hope the full wars points for each offense is deducted from each alliances final score.
Did one 2* war? Lose ~1.3 million points in master.
Did two 2* wars? Lose ~2.6 million points in master.
My opinion on the matter is irrelevant - what is relevant however is that the response to this specific issue has the potential to turn the last few wars of the season upside down. That, I would like to be prepared for.
Some response here before matchmaking opens would be great. I think we have all been waiting long enough. If there is no response on this topic then we can conclude that all alliances can run 2 star wars and gain maximum points without repercussions. And we too can save our boosts and potions for harder wars as these alliances have done.
I agree, Kabam needs a system where they can temporarily give a team a lower multiplier without actually lowering their rating.
Maybe something like reduce their season points and throw the cheating alliances in to a low priority queue. This could have a lower multiplier, so innocent lower tier alliances are negatively effected by this. Also, I'm sure the queue times in this "low priority queue" wont be as fast, so that's another bonus for people who don't cheat!
Take away multiplier and make them fight up a tier
Wanted to drop by to let you know that this hasn't gone under the radar and that we are still heavily discussing it. Once we have a direct response on the topic we'll be back to update you all here.
Thank you for your patience on this, folks.
There’s really only two responses to this.
1) it’s exploitative and should be punished and punished in the future
2) it’s ok for these alliances to do it, thus it’s ok for all of us to do it in the future
What is not acceptable is that there is no punishment for this, but there will be punishment in the future. The reprecussions should not be different for these alliances just because they spend more than other alliances.
Thanks and i hope you can appreciate the urgency on our end as this cheating has directly effected season 2 which is ending soon.
@Kabam Vydious thank you, there are allainces out here actually fighting for rewards
tier 1...is the highest tier lol
You should be pretty happy that the alliance right ahead of you will drop out. You all now control your own destiny.
Its not fair for those of us who play the game as its meant.
