High TH's should carry more weight in matchmaking
I know there have been tons of complaints that the war matchmaking is unfair, and I know it can't be perfect. Our clan is 37-1-1, so you can imagine that we've won a lot of wars that we initially thought were unfair. But our current war... wow, it's definitely unfair.
We're a 15 vs 15 warring clan, and we have 2 TH9s with the rest TH8s until 2 high TH7s at the bottom. Our current war opponent has 5 TH9s!! At their bottom they have 2 weak TH7s and a TH6. The defenses on a couple of those TH9s are a little lower than some of our top TH8s, plus I think their TH6 sandbags them, so I can see why an algorithm thinks we may be equivalent. The problem really lies in those TH9's attack capabilities - they have more powerful troops and spells (plus 4 spells vs just 3) than our TH8s so their ability to get 44 or 45 on us is a lot greater than our ability to get 44 or 45 on them.
When it comes down to it, the lowest bases in a war don't matter much. Anyone a few rank #'s above the lowest can clean those up without a problem. In our wars, it's all about if our high guys can take out their high guys. Every war we finish in the 40's; any stars short of 45 are because we can't get them in the high bases. Therefore, I think high bases should carry more weight. No way should 2 TH9s be put up against 5 TH9s, regardless of their bottom guys averaging it out.
