    Welcome to the club mate... we matched against a alliance with 10 mil more alliance rating...

    @Mars___ alliance rating means nothing, not saying you’re wrong but a lot of players now have a fluff since they’re keeping their 1/2/3s due to champion requirements

    Gold 1 vs gold 1 is fair.
    Gold 1 vs masters isn’t fair.
    Gold 3 vs gold 1 isn’t fair.

    Are you kidding me? Four consecutive games.

    But it also reflects how strong the alliance roaster is...if i am not wrong

    Not really I currently have 415 champs
    If I sold all but my 5s and 6s
    I'd have 90.

    My allaince war teams wouldnt change but
    My 900k rating certainly would

    I'm similar:
    715k rating, 380+ champs, and only have 54x 5* & 6* champs. All of my 1*, 2, and a large portion of 3* champs are maxed. All this and still haven't done LOL or started Variant.

    Rating isn't all it's cracked up to be.

    What’s your point? Obviously you guys are on the cusp of gold 2. Similar war rating and all so there is no problem with that matchup.

    On the other hand, this is the first time I've seen the forums do this:

    Gold and Masters are brackets. On day one, no one is in any bracket. Technically speaking, no one is in any bracket until the season is over.

    We are Silver 1 and got matched up with a Gold 2 alliance. Very similar Alliance Rating. Exact thing happened in an off-season war, which we won.
  • Chris1212123Chris1212123 Member Posts: 320
    My alliance skipped half of last season to reduce our ranking and wait for the new system.

    We’re hugely dissapointed our first war of the season should have been easy and it’s just as stupidly difficult as it was last before.

    Technically speaking, I’m referring to the previous rankings obviously. If two alliances were gold 1 in season 7, with 100 war rating difference but one alliance beefed up their recruits in the offseason it’s still a fair fight. Because they were both gold 1.

    If a plat 1 alliance tanks to match up against plat 3. That’s not fair.

    Really? You are running a one battlegroup map with 4 pretty strong accounts and no war rating. Pretty hard to find similar matches lol

    How does skipping wars reduce your war rating? You have no ranking at the start of the season. Just a tier based on your war rating.

    It isn't fair because of tanking, not because of their previous season brackets. The previous season brackets are completely irrelevant to the question of whether a match is fair, which is why the game correctly ignores such information. If an alliance that previously finished in Platinum 1 tanks to reduce their rating and matches against a much weaker alliance that finished in Platinum 3 last season, that's not fair. But remove the tanking from that statement, and that match is now fair by default.

    @the op I agree it's maybe a tad unfair. Whilst some have suggested it's maybe due to a smaller pool running 2bgs, I have evidence to the contrary.

    My alliance is running a 2bg war currently, we are within 150ish war rating of yours. Yet we've been both been matched with people 300+ war rating higher.

    It isn't in the post I replied to. If you meant this, you wouldn't have said that alliances that were in two different brackets aren't a fair fight. Because that's the opposite of this.

    It means something.
    Higher rating players have better chances to have best def/att champs.

    So what’s wrong with my statement?
    A gold 1 alliance shouldn’t match a gold 1 alliance?

    Yeah I said if a plat 1 alliance tanks to match plat 3 alliances it isn’t fair. Their previous rankings are a speaking point of where they should be. Of course there are many reasons why alliances drop in war rating and not always because of tanking. In which case it’s could be considered to be a fair fight but it could be unknown to those outside of the dropping ally.
