GW after update...๐

Iโm so disappointed โน๏ธ from our matching and how this is possible? We met top 11 guild in the world โWild Walkingโ in GW and we have like 4-6 accounts less than 20 lvl heroes this is so stupid.
Pls, fix the matchmaking!!!

@Fluxxx Whatโs more interesting, is that your photo shows Wild Walking at Bronze I. I think that proves that there is a display bug in showing the other teamโs tier level.
Would this seem like a possibility?
As it is now it's like a fresh start and to the ranking system all guilds are equal, completely new and on the same lvl.
It's annoying I understand becasue myself I'd love to grab those extra rewards with extra vps multiplier for victory even though it's beta.
I haven't been in a victorious battle in months but well it is what it is.
I'm afraid though that this issiue will only go away when the beta is over and then after few wars then it'll be somewhat balanced.
Who knows when that will be.

Doesn't have to stay, But "Master" can drop to Gold 1, Gold 3 to Silver 3, etc....
There will be few abuses, with brand new guilds just formed who may be stronger, but still starting from Bronze 1, but that can last only for 1 war. They will raise through ranks fast.
Are you afraid someone will abuse system that much, that will make new guild over and over every week ? I doubt there will be many examples. Even if there are they won't affect leader board since when they re-make guild they will always start from 0.
IMO, whole system is wrong and that's why Matchmaking will never work properly. Allowing 3 participants per battle is ok, since there are very small guilds who can't have full team, but with this format (60 possible slots but you can fill only 40) you are encouraging other, full and competitive guilds to also sign up with less then they should so they can "cover" all 6 days and potentially end up with few points more. But that is so, so wrong...

Top guilds just need some competitiveness and excitement, and that is when you can face someone "equal" . I don't think we really care for those rewards offered, and we would get them anyway, starting from 0, or from higher rank.
But if top guilds are moved from a start to some other "league" that helps everyone to have a good matchmaking from beginning.
Why demotivating all those small guilds who get destroyed in first week ? This is game mode where they can grow, become better. Winning few ...morale boost...getting more interested in game... won't happen this way.
As for the other part you say, it can be fixed easy too. Win multiplier should only apply to VP, not RP. (Points needed to claim rewards obviously would get scalled down ) Doing this , all the frustration will fade away. Who care for leaderboard will get fair and interesting fight. Who care for rewards, would get them anyway, even if they lose a lot.
Maybe should consider adding one "final" week for all the guilds who played "better" and ended up in gold ranks, give them two more matches so they can win some more RPs

Just sort the guilds first by Tier, then number of participants, and lastly by number of challenge stars the guild gained last week. Then the 1st and 2nd guild on the list play each other, 3rd plays with 4th etc.
If we don't want to involve other game modes in this, then use the raw number of VPs as the 3rd criteria should also work well.
It's no big deal. It happens.
Not every match up is going to be the 49s vs the Chiefs. And it shouldn't be.
BUT...
it sure would be cool if there was a "Post Season" / "Playoffs" / "Tournament of Champions"
////////////////////////////\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
So why not do this?
However many wars long the Season is, at the end have a few weeks break, during which there is a Playoff Tournament, single elimination, with the top 12 guilds matching up.
One battle each (Max 10 players).
#9 vs #12
--- winner plays #8
----- winner plays #5
------- winner plays #4
--------- winner plays #2
#10 vs #11
--- winner plays #7
----- winner plays #6
------- winner plays #3
---------winner plays #1
The final two remaining guilds battle each other for Champion.
6 days, 12 guilds, one winner.
Prize could be something cool, like "Champion Armor" (Bruiser) for each member of the winning guild.
Even if it's just a chunk of gold, or some radios, a grenade, it wouldn't matter I don't think. It's more about the status than the prizes.
Definitely a " GW Champions" banner/trophy icon next to their guild if it appears on any leaderboard until the next Tournament.
This pretty much gives the big dog whale guilds something to look forward to each season.
Tournament should have it's own tab in the leaderboard too so the community can follow the progress if they choose to.

Exactly!
We got nice match again ๐ Mavericks
Iโm totally disappointed โน๏ธ .
But Yeah, totally agree with you. Our 2 first matches were against guilds not reaching 4k points. That's not what GW is supposed to be.
you cant always be the best. You have to get better at the game. It's not easy betting at hi rsl. Would be weird to have a championship with let's say wild walking vs a guild with level 20 characters. I dont feel like writing a book so I will stop at that
There are also even bigger number of casual and smaller guilds, and this format was made to help them but so far it's not working as intended but let's see how will develop in coming weeks.
Like Atlas said, for that playoff rewards are not really important. It's only a prestige thing and enough reward is just being qualified for that, IMO.
Also, if there are "Leagues" from the start, and guilds fairly separated by strength and achievements made in season before , playoff can apply for all leagues. Let's say League 1 - top 50 guilds, League 2 - 51-100(or even bigger, differences between guilds are smaller later) ... I don't know this are just ideas, not sure if they can be implemented, but i would like to see.
And if you are afraid that there will be non-satisfied teams because they lose a lot in current league, all can be fixed if there is no multiplier for Reward Points.
Winning is enough as "extra" reward and satisfaction for guild who won. Don't bury teams who lost even more with giving them less points for the shop. They played their 18 attacks, they tried - they deserve.
This would be the first step in making things right at this mode. Then we can work on other stuff...

๐๐the feeling is mutual. We were hoping to play against you last day of GW

Yes, weโd love to play WW. Hopefully on a day when our noob player Christoph isnโt playing

But yeah, I guess that would be unfair. Best rethink my pitch.

In news feed a banner advertising the big matchup!
Right there, you can vote and choose your side. Essentially declaring who you're rooting for to win.
If your chosen team wins, you get reward X. Same reward granted to the Victor guild basically shared with everyone in the community who chose them!
Losing side and community can get a lesser but decent consolation prize.
I think it would be fun. And the winning team would feel even better that they earned a reward for their supporters.
