Ok I am goign to present the data bout my team, then the matchups we have been getting, and you judge how that is logical:

My team: Apocalyptic Convergence.
MP: 1.917 Million
Wars won: 9
War coins earned in past 90 days: 4321
Team rank: #487

Now here is our war log, keep in mind this doesn't show all the matches we had only most recent ones.
We are ranked #487 in the past month alone we have been matched with
a team ranked in the #60 a team ranked in the #50s and 2 in the #30s these are not shown on the log. But I want to highlight 3 of the losses that are shown.

I am fine with losing vs a team who just has the better advantage that war. I am not fine with being slaughtered with by top teams who end up getting 449 and we end up getting like 18. That is not a match.

I tolerated the teams ranked 60s and 30s, thought it was flattering actually that you think we are in the same league as them. But it keeps getting worse and worse.. after the 60s and 30s we get the #27 then #26.

Now, we are matched with team #4 yes number 4. I would get it if matchmaking ran for an hour and then matched us with them finally cause it simply found no match. But no, it was immediate, I click start matchmaking and within a minute it matches us with that.

so, this has nothing to do with luck, this is about matchmaking being broken and illogical.

Please, look at our team data and at theirs and tell me why on earth should we be matched with these teams? what do we have in common?

their MP is double, triple, and quadriple ours, their war coins won are thousands ahead of us.
Their requirements are having nemesis and level 30s and X runes!!! ours are 110 ranks and lvl 6 runes minimum!

Do you know how frustrating it is to be placed island 1 in ur team and u click on enemy and u are matched with their #30 that you can't even beat?? Do you know hard it is to keep a team of people motivated when we keep getting hit by these matchups?

fine if it happens once every blue moon, but in a matter of a month we have had a dozen of those. I want to know why!? We have tried starting it in different days, different hours, lowering our MP, nothing has helped, it is as if you have placed our team in this pool of top team matchups and we can't get out of it .

there is no way shape or form we should have been matched with #4 WITHIN A MINUTE.

@Community-Managers @fox @carlos @tyroz Please acknowledge that there is a problem and tell us how you are fixing it. Or if you truly believe there is none, please tell me what logic is used to match my team with #26 #27 and now #4. (again within a minute of running matching, at different hrs and different days.)

Or please my suggestion that I have been putting up for years now, allow us to forfeit, give them all max coins and allow us to run again instead of losing 2 days for nothing. There have been so many suggestion on how to fix this over the years, this clearly is not working. Put all teams in a pool and then match them up daily like u did for battlegrounds instead of just being match it with however happens to be running at the same time!
Team #470 with 1.9Mil Mp vs #4 With 8+ mil MP
you do the math.

Tbf looking at the scoring, you were only slaughtered in one of those wars that you have shown,probably this one against collusion too. MP means nothing to me, far too easy to inflate.
the wars that you lost were no different to the ones you won, just in reverse. Apart from one on each win/loss where your team slaughtered and were slaughtered i would say they were pretty balanced. Really bad luck getting collusion though.

I am a bit confused here, i was thinking you were rebuilding Confluent Power as per your post around 1 month ago. Now you post here about your matchmaking situation that you had for the past month with another team. Wouldn't you think that maybe shifting from teams (no idea if it is on a regular basis and not making any assumption here) might have a negative impact on the matchmaking itself, making it worst in your case, considering the issues that already exist?

Gotta say I'm kinda jealous of your war log. If you looked at ours currently it's 2 wins to 8 losses. It feels like we are just feed for the war whales since the match making change. Granted for 2 of those we were stuck not being able to kick the 4 that joined and didn't fight at all so we were handicapped hard for the last 2.

Next match just started. No hope we can win this one either so about to go 2 wins in the last 11. It's getting very disheartening to keep this up.

@VargRanger So balance to you is when you get a team you beat by almost twice the WC and right after losing to another team by the same margin? I dunno...I thought a balanced matchmaking will be getting matched with teams of similar MP consistently.

@Yomi-Que well actually i said apart from those two wars... But never mind
You cant really base anything on MP, it means nothing. I have seen people with 150k mp with no 130s and people with sub 100k with 20+ 130s.

1 thing that may play a role here, that you did not mention:

You matched instantly, but Collusion probably was searching for hours already. Teams that try to avoid them are part of the problem here. Which could be fixed in many ways as has been suggested many times before.

qft
many many times.
And here we are again. War matches get fixed, people are happy, then someone from SP comes with an amazing solution that feeds the middle teams to the whales.
You get lower MP teams having a jolly good time since they are newer accounts and controlling MP there is easy and the middle teams being smashed by whales.
Same deal over and over then they change it and then again someone from SP comes with the brilliant idea on how to feed us to the whales.
We are bleeding members here! Revamp MP or scrap it all together.
Revamp matchmaking by using ANY of the aforementioned solutions throughout the last 2 years so we can get rid of lobbying.
The middle teams suffer and we haven't reached the middle by simply being f2p. Let us fight eachother and exclude the lobbying whales from our pool.

War matchmaking is crap. We just lost 10 straight or so, despite 99% participation (and usually well over 300 coins per war), being matched against the team ranked #3 in MP, among others (we are #239).
Edit: Our MP is almost exactly at your level.

Having said that, you formed a new team to cheat the system, to get easy opponents. You average over 60k in MP per player, and expect to draw low ranked teams as opponents? Shame on you for switching to a new team, even more shame on you for complaining here.

Wow. Seems like @Sam has a few salty friends

I like salty
Teams like his are the reason why we have to fight the #3 ranked team. Because his team is exactly in our MP range, but those tricks make it unlikely that they meet us.

In the end it's a crappy matchmaking that allows for loopholes that shouldn't be there, sure.
