♥♥♥ Matchmatching in war?? medium th9 against full max th11 Its totally unfair

[Snowlegend80]

Same thing is upon my shoulders now as well. I do understand mostly about the base weight systems for war matching but this is ridiculous. I'm a 9.5 vs 11. Top person in the war has same troops and tons more defense. I will be lucky to get 2 stars from both attacks. Please acquire a new or at least more clear matching strategy. 😭

Let's say in an other point of view. Have you ever been matched with a weaker clan? If it hasn't happened, it will occur in the future. There are thousands of clans. Some of them are active. A less number of them are requesting for wars. If you expect the 2 clans are identical, you would have to wait endlessly. So, let's take it easy to accept some minor differences.

I am not saying that the matching algorithm is perfect. It isn't. And it will never be perfect. It is sometimes extremely stupid. But it works well enough most cases.

There was a time that our clan with only one TH10 was matched with an enemy equipped by 6 TH10. It was really crazy. Amazingly, we did win the war. Their inferno towers cause no fear to our warriors. And their defense is somewhat useless

What you state used to be true. Problem is that now the severe mismatch is the norm, not something that happens on occasion. We have lost our last 3 wars due to severe mismatch with them being WAY stronger than us in every occasion. And these were war searches that lasted less than 11 mins. One was only 4. I think they should take a little more time to find a better opponent. If one is found that fast, it better be a little closer.
They already said that they changed the matchmaking for th 9 and up and it is showing. We are all getting majorly screwed over if we don't have any 11's because they are matching them with literally anyone. It's like they made a rental 11's count as 9's or 10's no matter how beefed up they are. It's really ruining our morale and making us not want to war, when warring is what everyone loves the most.
Something needs to be done. Supercell needs to realize they have a big problem on their hands and fix it instead of towing the line of "we are perfect and everything is working great."

No. What was meant was that matchmaking takes the offensive and defensive strength of the clan AS A WHOLE, and then searches for a clan of similar weight. An advantage in one area is often offset by a disadvantage in another.

If people would stop thinking that they are individually matched with their mirror they would find this easier to grasp.

What you are not understanding is that the mismatch usually runs all the way down. We just fought a team that had a 10 bigger than me, all of their 9's bigger and stronger than our 9's, plus they got an extra 9. They also had no 7's when we had 1. So where is the offset there? In the past there was an offset, but now there isn't and that is the problem.
We also fought a war with 2 11's and 3 10's against our 3 10's. They also got an extra 9 and therefore had one less 7. There was nothing to compensate for the severe mismatch in that war either. Our last 3 wars have been this way and it is getting depressing. Our clan is very good and has gone on 30+ war win streaks. Never have we lost more than 1 war in a row until now. That alone should tell you that something is wrong with the matchmaking.
I have tried to bring this to Supercell's attention in the in-game support but they just brush me off and say that everything is working great. They are clueless about their own game all the time. This isn't the first time they have said that nothing is wrong when there really was.
This is not the normal occasional mismatch that we have all had from time to time. This is a severe problem with mismatching th 9 and up because of the th 11 update. They said they changed the way those th levels are matched and it was changed in a bad, bad way. It needs to be fixed and having people say that there must be something to make up for it or you need to expect this from time to time is NOT helping because you are way off the mark. This is not normal and MUST be fixed ASAP.

No 1 is near Max th11 vs our mid th9, next 4 near Max 9s vs our mid 9s. I expect they will clear the top 10 of 25. I think it's cos we have th6 in the mix, pushing the limit of the matchmaking.

We have a rule of nothing lower than a 7 because of mismatches in the past and are experiencing the same severe mismatches. It is a th 9 and up problem and has nothing to do with the bottom of the map.
I think they are trying to compensate for the lower number of th 11's compared to other th levels, but it is screwing us all over. What they need to do is just make it so that teams with 11's have to wait longer for a match. Heaven forbid they wait a while. Our matches came very quickly, which is entirely unacceptable. If it matches in less than 11 mins then it better be a very good match, not this ridiculousness. They need to listen up and realize that there IS A PROBLEM.
