[Reported] GW Matching system has serious flaws

Reading through the various topics on the forum, it is clear that the matching logic is seriously flawed. This needs repairing

  • top guilds are matched with the same empty guild four days in a row
  • low level guilds are matched with high level guilds creating a very uneven playing field
  • it is possible to be matched to the same guild twice. We got matched with the guild in below screen twice
  • some guilds reported that during the day it shows you are fighting guild A, but after reset it shows you have won/lost against guild B

Please fix this by:

  • reintroducing a bracket like system
  • set all guilds that scored zero points the last 2 GW’s to opted out for the next GW.

Games loocking up a lot in gw too. Everytime i cast world breaker it would freeze up the screen. I took it out eventually but its a joke, things get “fixed” then we get more bugs and glitches for our troubles

These seem to be issues from the previous renewed guild wars.
I don’t know if their elo system works as intended, we got paired with 2 top 10 guilds from old guild wars. Is it because they didn’t score well or play much last time? Is it because we recently passed 5 million trophies?

Some are existing since last war, others are new. But they should have fixed it before running the second GW. They said they delayed the second GW to fix these kind of things. But it only got worse.

I say, fix it all. Then put all dead guilds on opted out and reset every guild to zero elo. Run GW for some months and adjust elo after each GW day so the leaderboard is constantly changing during the duration of the event. The matching will quickly be fair that way

I wouldn’t want a return to a bracket system if it means the rewards outside of bracket 1 are worthless, as in old GW

Sooo, if I understand this correctly… Due to the new “reasonably close” matching system the leaders (which have been set because of their trophy rating) are keeping battling each other and getting higher and higher ELO rating because of that. While we are facing low-level, dead or semi-active guilds, and our ELO rating increases slower than the one of the leaders, and we don’t even have the chance to reach them.

I can’t even express how frustrated I am.
