“The Road to Better World War Matchmaking” aka Sandbagging!

[shukra]

for the first ww in a long time we had no sandbags .. enough ppl wanted to play we just went straight 20 players.
.... and immediately we are outgunned.
of course one datapoint does not tell the whole story .. but we are all bummed about it anyway.
it's pretty sad that i have to 'game' the system just to play the game.

It's really hard for a 195-220 atomic to able to do much against a 275+ cwa. We got 78/125 stars. Can't complain too much.

I know there's some randomness. I'd rather they all be closer matches than blow outs. It seems teams give up easily these days

The problem is not the sandbags anymore!!!! The problem is the damn rebalance, Its impossible to beat an alliance which is stronger. We’ve only had boring wars since rebalance. Before the rebalance we were able to try and steal a win from a bit stronger alliance by planning and getting better time. Nowadays its just plain boring. The obsession of making it difficult to get 5 stars ruins this game.

Must be a long fricking road doesn’t matter somehow they will screw this up also

The road to hell is paved with good intentions, while the road to better world war matchmaking is paved with empty promises and indifference.

for the 2nd day in a row we have an elite team life obvious health from ww-artifacts, without coalitions and clearly strengthened.
it's quite a difference, combined with use of 8+ fighters in attacks i think there is a cheating problem.

how appropriate to reality that you can only enter the 1% if you cheat.

Why does CS send the link to this thread when nothing has been done .... for three years... except worsen war matching? These past few months now, since the CWA ranking bug have been terrible, yet customer service sends this link as “an answer”...
this needs to be fixed.
