What is involved in matchmaking when starting a clanwar?

So far I always thought that matchmaking was sort of matching an equal clan to your clan. However since we earned the lvl 5 clan status this is completely of balance. There is most of the time more then 10 XP point difference between each player and the opposing player. My question is if this is pure coincidence or did other clans also notice this since they became lvl 5? Also can anybody shed some light over the matchmaking process? I thought that becoming a lvl 5 clan would give you an advantage instead of a set back.

Level of troops/spells/defenses/walls/townhall.

Matchmaking has nothing to do with XP levels.

Clan level an player level have no impact on the matchmaking. It's all about defensive and to a certain extend offensive strength.

Compare the overall base strength of the opposing clan to yours and you'll find it's probably about even...


Congratz on reaching lv5 clan btw, that's awesome ...but yeah don't misunderstand what it means.
