War matching I think needs work

How do you think they are better

Well when there worst player has full TH8 max defense and your worst is at best a mid th8 yeah its unfair while having more th10s at the same time who have access to all the troops maxed.

But that is part of matchmaking. You can be paired with people much better then you or much worse.

You are giving those people too much credit... I honestly think they do not compare anything other than TH/XP level. Their post never mention about defense building's level, and even if they did they compare only 1 or 2 bases.

I have no idea why people think matchmaking is very balanced, either they have yet to face a harder opponents, or they are just really good at attacking... But what I am saying is, people are blind by the TH/XP level, because if their first impression after seeing the TH/XP level is unfair, they will fail to see everything else.

Even during a one-sided war, I would encourage everyone to attack, so what if you lose and waste elixir? If you can have more practice why not take it? It would help the clan in the long run

Oh who said we gived up?
I invite all of you guys to join my clan !ARRASADORES!
You will see this unfair matchup and then you are free to leave.

Discourage trophy dropping?

Some people value farming and base improvement more than clan wars. ...( which the only reward is a pat on the back.)

It's much more satisfying to take out someone bigger than you too!

I have seen so many people complain about war matchmaking being unfair. Reality is the matchmaking is not unfair, it is just because most clan have really weak attackers. I show a simulation below, in a 40 vs 40 war. You only need top 18 players to be strong attackers, to exceed 100 stars.(assuming the enemy is so strong you can barely 1 star the top 4 players)

Leave the top 4 super strong site out, and attack every site below them. Even if you fail to 3 star 5 sites, that is still 95 stars. Even if you don't attack the top 10 enemy base, that is 90 stars. Of course so many clans have top players who are really poor attackers or are inactive. That is your problem to deal with not the matchmaking algorithm..

[jerkiejerx]

A commendable insight. Thanks for posting. ^__^

So you rely on the assumption that the other team are weak attackers and inactive players to be able to win wars? The matchmaking does not consider these so what do they have to do with the fairness of process?

You honestly just have not been in a war where one side has much more advanced defensive buildings, heroes, and troops overall, and that your rank 1, 2... are comparable to the rank 6, 7... of the opposing clan. Your top players can easily be taken down but their top bases can barely be 1-starred as you put it.

We're not even bothering with the current clan war. Massively over-faced with much harder bases. Not a good sign when our number 1 in the clan war table has a 'recommended' base that is number 28 in the opposition.
It took a full 30 minutes to match us this time. I'm coming to the conclusion that if it takes a while to match you, the match will probably not be that even.... otherwise you'd have been matched faster. Almost like the game just gives you the nearest it can find after a certain time. We're planning on cancelling the search for a match if it takes longer than 10 minutes in future. We'll then try again a few minutes later.

I wish people who keep posing "there isnt a problem because I havn't seen one at my TH5/6/7 level..." would just pipe down for a while. Wait until you get to straight TH10 CWs where your clan are predominantly Lvl 105-115 and the opposition are mostly Lvl 135-145.....thats a huge problem because you cant defend against GoWIWi but they can. And even in the most outrageously unmatched wars at this level it is highly unlikely for there to be more than a handful of 3* on either side.

At lower levels CWs really rewards attack skill and upg troops. The offence has a huge advantage but you cannot extrapolate this situation to what goes on at higher levels. At higher levels it is all about good defences and most people just trying to nick 2* from an attack. When you are overmatched because of a defence imbalance the attackers will get 2* from almost every attack while most of the weaker clan will struggle to get more than 1* ....and some will fail even to do that.

Pointless thread really...

Having good wars is about building your clan around maxed out bases. Maxed th8s and th9s will bring lower leveled opponents to crush.

Matchmaking is in fact bad, it's just important to make it work in your favor.
