Here is our current matchup.
If we win, we gain 545 glory. If we lose, we lose 567 glory.
We will likely lose this one. We played them before and they will fill every Stronghold and City Center.
Our middle range Industrial players won't be able to add much to this war.

burk..another impossible match! What is going on here ??
Rate: Impossible (we only lose 300 points against 200).

WHEN the new matchmaking will go out? Our team is really getting demotivated by those impossible wars that we are boycotting. No reason to spend a $ or crown on those world wars impossible to win. Staff is looking for other games now.

Better than what we've been having lately. We usually matchup with more CWA bases and iron age at the bottom.

Obviously when it’s an impossible war than I can see why people would boycott but at the same time it seems odd to me. Yes you can’t gain that juicy glory but there’s plenty few reasons to fight.
(1) It’s an alliance war so the point is the benefit the alliance, not just in glory but to raise the level of the alliance as well. Not attacking helps no one. By at least getting one star from a base you get experience for the alliance. You don’t want to pile the rss loss up and attack High lvl cwa bases but u can get xp from the lower bases. Depending on if you save it for war like most, go all out on first attack (Not wasting troop cards obviously) and just use instant retrain to save food and oil though be careful with the mercs since they still take trade goods from your inventory.
(2) Attacking experience gained. Challenges against friendly bases help a lot but you can’t fully learn unless you go against the unknown. There are a lot of wars my alliance lose because our middle global/atomic player cannot successfully attack a silo base. Personally it’s discouraging as I take 10 stars from the hardest bases yet our lvl 200 aa player can’t take out a lvl 150 ga silo base and that costs us the match. So we always encourage players to try the first attack on a base out of the comfort area otherwise you’ll never get better.
(3) Rubies/fragments/rss/conquerors chest/nat trade goods. Yes when you lose you only get half of the war loot but you get all the fragsments and rss that you would normally get as if you raided on MP. Depending on if you get 5 stars and the age of the base, you actually get more rss there than the actually war loot at the end. Even getting that 1 single star gets you war loot. Need nat trade goods? Smash 2 Iron Age bases (Or the lowest of the low on their sode) and get minimum 6, max of 8 if you did univ research.
It’s been a long time but we haven’t been on the receiving end of a gain 900 glory or lose 4 type war. Because of our glory number I don’t think that’s even possible. We are currently at 23.3k. But the journey there was filled with those wars yet we kept doing the most we could do so that now we have this current glory as well as be 3 wars from hitting lvl 13. I get that many wars are impossible to win and even for us when we see an alliance that has like 8 sandbags and all high lvl cwa, we know we’re losing despite us losing way more glory than we should. Yet you do what you need do, get xp where you can and move on. There’s no reason to play dead and if you’re always playing dead than you need to change it up. Try to add more players to war or try starting war at a different time. I know it’s not fair but if your highest lvl players are global or industrial of course you’re going to be in a world of pain.

In our previous war we were matched against 7 CWA. The alliance name was Deutsche LEGION ranked 227 with 280 wins and only 80 loses more or less.
On the other hand, it was us with basically 1 CWA and ranked somewhere around 1500. Since the war was extremely tough, I formed a plan...
Load all bases and do NOTHING. No coalitions, no strongholds absolutely nothing.
Play the dead and let them make their battles for 20 hours.
Then, 3 hours before the end of the war, everyone take 2-3 Offensive coalitions and attack his target.
We executed the plan to almost perfection. The enemy didn't load defensive coalitions or strongholds and their attacks were good but not super fast.
Everyone was attacking a base 20-30 levels above his own and 5 starring them. It was very intense war.
In the end, we lost 73-75. But it didn't bother us cause it was a massive feat for us and I am sure the other alliance must had multiple heart attacks when they saw us ripping them apart one by one.
So, what did we learn from that?
KEEP FIGHTING no matter how hard the war is. In the end, even if you lose, you have the extra chest, the extra XP and other goods AND THE SATISFACTION that you didn't raise a white flag

Man, our last match was so annoying and it made me cry, literally, because we were outmatch on paper but we had a really big chance to win! 
Was against higher rank alliance 22k glory vs us 18k, 700/100 glory gain/loss.
They had 4 CWA, 3AA, 1 GA + lower ages vs Us 2 CWA, 5 AA, 2 GA + lower ages. 1 of our AA didn't show up and 1 GA attacked the wrong base so the score wasn't added.
Score was tie, we lost by average destruction
SOB!

I left our war search over 30 minutes and we got brutal matchmaking, they have 5 or 6 CW, we only have 1. Glory raise is 700 for us 
I think the key for better MM is to keep canceling search after 10 minutes if we haven't found a match.
Edit : 7 CW + 3 iron on their side. Such a 2 days waste of time.
Yawn, next please!

Think 10 minutes is still to long Angel. The longer the search takes the wider the search range becomes.
When we are mismatched I instruct free attacks without stronghold troops. And set a goal like 60% of all available stars.
