Clan Wars Matchmaking - Randomize the Can Internal Matchmaking Part
This proposal is NOT about the Clan Wars matchmaking algorithm to match clans of similar skill level but about the less known "feature" of the account age of the players influencing the matchmaking. When multiple players from a clan join a template it is not random which player gets matched against which opponent but the player with the oldest account gets the highest ranked opponent clan and the player with the youngest account gets the lowest ranked opponent clan.
This has several disadvantages:
- The top performer list of clans become meaningless since the younger accounts get way easier games.
- Younger accounts from lower rated clans are more prone to fail to get a match than the older accounts in that clan.
- Some players who like the same sort of templates and timeslots get matched an excessive amount against each other.
- Players with younger accounts get bored and have no real need to improve since they win easily anyways.
Suggestion: Randomize the player list.
The order of players within each clan is now randomized. Thanks for the suggestion!
