War matching I think needs work

Best means trying to gain most stars possible, and not have 90% inactive players.

You really should not expect to find a fair match with such a wide range of TH levels. What are the odds that another clan with similar range of THs push the start war button at the same time?

Damn just had a huge thing written out but clicked back lol ill try to shorten it up. I understand most war matches will be mismatched and i am fine with that we have been having fairly good participation but some just dim the vibe for a difficult war for everyone. i know that a th 8 can be a rushed 10 but i already have alot of confidence with infernos and they dont really intimidate me anymore but for the people that are th 9 and havent passed up the intimidation factor of infernos its hard to raid them and almost always mess something up if your not confident and have patience. But my COs and i have been trying to help everyone step by step with strategies and attack points so their confidence is getting better. But was is very much bothering me isnt the mismatch itself its that i am #5 on the war and my recommended is freaking 20, so that means supercells matchmaking thinks i wont survive 19 and down.which i can but its the principal that if thats my recommended where does that leave the rest of my clan.so that being said why would they give us a match like this if the damn game thinks our #1 should try and attack #12 because that is his recommended.i just dont get it. Doesnt make sense at all. Not one person in the clan has a recommended above 10. Now that might be because its early in war but regardless if i attack#20 then that leaves someone higher in my clan that has to attack a better opponent. I appreciate all the feedback guess progress is process gotta fail to succeed like anything. Let me know if this is happening to anyone else thanks!

My clan is 31-5 and we got matched up with a clan this weekend we knew a head of time we had no chance against. I mean if we fought these guys 100 times we wouldn’t win one.

You absolutely nailed it. It seems walls carry more weight in matchups than anything else. I maxed TH 7 out, including walls. Since becoming TH8 I've maxed mortars and that's it for defense besides 20 or so walls I upgraded. I'm now one of our highest ranked TH8s even though I've only had enough time to upgrade archers to 5. Drags are still being upgraded.

The TH8s under me have almost all their troops maxed and similar defense. Walls are probably the least important (defensive building) yet it seems to count in matchups the most.

My point exactly. Thanks for making this seem easier for more people to understand

ur rank in clan wars is based solely on defenses. offense goes into recommended target, so try comparing your recommended with a th8 that has stronger offense than you.

Hmm. On the contrary, my own analysis has shown me and my clan that walls themselves actually carry negligible weight. Almost nothing.

Then that simply means the matchmaking is even more mysterious. Because, as I said before. I am being put ahead of people with similar defense, much better troops, but all pink or pink and gold walls.

Considering that, it's only logical to assume the walls make a considerable difference with who you are matched up against.

Look can be deceiving. You looked at the TH, IT and hero.... there is a lot more to it than just those...

The matchmaking is dependant on the maxed out percentage of the bases. (KINDA)
So as unfair as it looks, it's not off by too much.

We have one new TH 9 (Me), around 5 TH 8s that are not even half maxed, and the opponent's have around 7 Maxed TH 8s.

So it's not too unfair though it is a challenge.

Very well said!

Aint like it will stop them from complaining...

[Aspekt]

I dont understand, are you trying to hide something?

the enemy bases you just visit them, so we get to see their numbering, why couldn't you do the same for your own bases? why use replay?

just wondering...
