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.

If we’re using the AQ metric of prestige to match wars then that has to be considered as a tougher war.
Not sure what tier you play in but as a tier 1 guy for the last few seasons this is probably the worst iteration they’ve had and I had a +127/-2 match against MMXIV a few seasons ago....
These Brackets are not the same as the other system where the "strongest" Allies own their spots and you need to beat them to win. It's Points-based. Master IS Master because they put up more Points. Not because they beat everyone under them. That's an impossible scenario in the current setup. You earn Points by raising your Multiplier and gaining Wins. Your Multiplier goes up as you win more. More Points means higher Ranking. People are looking at this entirely wrong. The Brackets are determined by the Points you've put up with your own performance. Not fighting your way past everyone to the top of the Bracket Leaderboard.
Fact, I have a friend in a 11m alliance. They are high Gold 1, tier 3 and have never faced an alliance above 12m. You can't blame good fortune that in 11 matches they have never faced a larger tier 3 alliance. I probably have more R4/R5* than their entire alliance but yet they are in a higher war tier and are ranked higher than us. Last season you had a 6m alliance finish in plat 3.
You can't say this system isn't profoundly flawed when you have a junior varsity sub-system within wars but they still get varsity rewards.
