With the new clan levels, mismatches are much more common in wars. When a level 4 clan goes against a level 6 clan, for example, the level 6 clan has upgraded troops in all of the Defensive Clan Castles as well as in war attacks. I think that Clan levels should be a factor in making matches for war so that newer clans can compete with clans with similar strengths and of similar levels.
Clan wars are already based on the strength of individual members including to a small degree attacking strength in troop levels, but this admittedly does not take into effect the skill of the clan; whether this should be taken into consideration I do not know. Perhaps, although the more criteria the harder it is to find a match, so would this help that much?
Just for the record, clan levels are already one of the match-making/ matching factors.
We're a level 4 clan at the moment but we smashed a level 6 clan last war. Yet a few wars back we lost to a level 2 clan. I think some people, including some in my clan, place too much emphasis on clan levels of your war opponent.Quote:

The only benefit I can see a level 6 clan having over a level 4 clan is that more people are able to give max troops in war ccs and ccs.
It certainly does seem that way. But I don't think there is any concrete evidence to show that this is the case. We almost always get matched with a clan that is 1 level or less away from us, BUT that doesn't mean that it is a factor, it could just be that all the clans similar enough to ours to cause a match have been warring and winning the same amount of wars we have. Both are likely conclusions with established clans.Quote:
