another missmatch! this is HUGE!!!

Hello everyone, i have just registered due to the frustration of clan war matching.. this time it is with out a doubt the worst EVER! my clan name is KPE (lvl 9) and we are battling against clan named ALBANIA (level 11!!) 15 versus 15!

our clan has..
1 th 11
2 th 10
4 th 9
1 th 8.5
2 th 8
3 th 7
2 th 3

they have :confused::mad:
7 th 11
2 th 10
2 th 9
1 th 7
3 th 3

of course their defenses are weaker but they have grand warden and troops! i have screenshots if someone does not believe me. PLEASE SUPERCELL LISTEN TO YOUR PLAYERS AND FIX MATCHING BY ATTACKING THE SAME TOWN HALL AS YOURS! :thumbsup:

You tried to skew matchmaking and succeeded, OP.

we made 2 war accounts to have equall opponents at wars.. but the matchmaking is killing us everytime..whether we use or not war accounts. 7 town halls 11 are wayyyyyyyy to much..come on!

Your 8.5 probably counted as a 9. By throwing the little th3s at the bottom to drop the weight of your clan you increased the chance of a crazy matchup. Sometimes it is in your favor, sometimes not. I'm not saying if you went th11 through th8 there would be no mismatch, there always will be, but a lineup like this increases the chance. That seems to be commonly noted by others, especially since October.

It sounds more like the opponent tried to skew matchmaking. I'm guessing, but it's likely most of those TH11s have no infernos or eagles; but have big TH11 troops and wardens. And, yes, it does sound like the enemy's attempt to skew the MM has worked perfectly for them.

Oh, the opponent did too, and arguably "better".

the thing is that we do not want to use th3 or war accounts. we prefer active players but because of the missmatches that we had at the past we were forced to create 2 town hall 3... town hall 3 are useless! we want fair matching were we can show our skills..it is not about winning because you cheated, but because of the clan's skills!

You've got a very uncommon lineup* so the matchmaker will struggle to find you a good match, and often end up with a mismatch. There's a thread around here somewhere about how to get fairer matches....

*not really that uncommon, its similar to what a lot of roster engineers do so don't be surprised when you get matched with roster engineers.

Aspex nailed it. You dumped 2 th3 on the bottom, that's roster engineering and the mm correctly accounts for that now. Also, you have at least one .5 on top of that, so you checked off a couple of the various lopsided clan roster things that the mm looks for. Not surprising at all that you got a mismatch, though I'd wager that you have never complained about the easy wars that you've also gotten to benefit from with that roster engineering.

Oh, one more thing, all those 7's matched with an 11 are already a pretty high spread of bases. I recommend keeping to a minimum of high or max th8's if you're using an 11 in war.

Yeah, this is the issue. The OP would have never matched the heavy engineers if he didn't have the th3's, and the .5, and the overall large spread across the roster even without the th3's...but, as stated above, he's probably won a bunch of wars with that crazy roster, too.

I'm getting the feeling that it will be a 100% to 100% draw. If op's th11 is maxed, there is a chance they will win. In my experience, a match with that much of an offense advantage means that the enemy bases are probably equivalent to th9's or less on defense. OP's clan should have no problem getting a perfect war.
