*News* Season 2 will begin Sept 9th with a week of pre-season wars. Official Season 2 announcement tomorrow. Equipment You will no longer have the ability to equip or un-equip equipment once match ups occur. This is a necessary change as we now take equipment into account for match ups. Without blocking this, players will take off equipment before match ups in an attempt to game the system. Defender too Strong & Defender too Weak is still in effect *IMPORTANT* we have restricted member participation to a range of 26 to 29 members. *Estoc Edge will be awarded as before. 1 level earned for winning, 1 level lost for losing. You will still lose a level if you leave your clan * Mithril will still be rewarded for winning. * No Rancor levels will be awarded Schedule Signup: 3-6 hours prior to War Start Time. This varies based on how close the wars are together. Matchmaking: 2 hours prior to War Start Time (Must sign up before this, rosters lock at this point) Activity Lock: Approximately 1 hour prior to the earliest War Start Time Start Time: This can vary up to 15 minutes. This will be reflected in your war timer. Wars will be a mix of 1 and 2 hour wars.

We have NO need for random times OR advantage times. Keep them at fixed times, please. Also, gh still pay lousy plunder, but gain full plunder. Please fix that.
Lol they said they had a fix for gh BEFORE the season ... We all told them they needed more time for that and to finish actually fixing matches ... Last couple weeks didn't prove it? I hope u reconsider .... I for one don't want to see ee die out
So, after everything, you're NOT going to fix the GH issue? Could you not have just told us this 2months ago, rather than string us along with a series of promises. It was one of the biggest issues raised, if not the biggest, and you've done nothing to fix it (unless you count allowing GH's to hit ppl same as before, but prevented some of them hitting back. You may consider that a fix but I can assure you we do not and have stated this time and time again). Bit disappointed to be honest.
Also please consider a shorter window for advantage ko I think everyone agrees 5 minutes is too long ... Spam in a war is no fun for either side
Blah. Not worth typing out the same suggestions week in and week out. Post actual algorithm please. It isn't proprietary. It is good for us to know how we are actually being matched (it is obviously NOT straight cs+BFA+bfe......)
Agree with the guy above if everyone fully understands the match making system everyone has the same opportunity to get there clan an even match, rather that then walk into matches outmatched not being able to hit bigs! Fixes all the moaning on In forums which IMO has only made the wars worse off. Noobs crying in forums ruined the war system
EE Wars aren't going to die out. We are all still going to play in this ridiculous system and be extremely frustrated. Don't know why we need more trial weeks when you aren't going to change anything. Just start the season so we can at least try and get something from warring other than trying to convince you that your match ups suck.
I, for one, am very happy to see the advantage wars back in the lineup. It is the only way to battle mismatches. And the 5 minute window allows for better clan strategy when outgunned and out numbered. Thank you. If the match ups are going to remain as they are, and they will until more clans decide to join in these EE wars, it will be the only way to battle the bad matches. Tracking and set ko times limit strat to the best opening, pin and xtls. But if a clan is seriously outmatched, this at least gives an opportunity to try to get the upper hand. Congrats on listening devs. JD.
So many complaints about GH... Since when is war fair...you need to get with the program.... you have the option to respec to ghansel if you want. you have the option to make a strong clan of all higher levels so that you dont get paired against ghansels. you have the option to change a lot yet all you people do is cry about the option's given. instead of pouting and threatening considering EE will continue without a few cry babies that refuse to adapt. I had a main that was 10 mil cs before hf and i adapted...if you dont want to adapt then suffer the consequences...stop crying...you have the same option everyone else does to rebuild to better prepare yourself for war. going guild hansel is the same as being required to have towers to protect yourself. its just a different mechanic...so stop your crying and do what needs to be done in order to war or just stop playing...but stop blaming the devs, stop blaming other players...it is on you as a player if you refuse to adapt to the way the game mechanics currently work.
They can't tell us exactly how the algorithm works because then it would be extremely easy to manipulate the system. Then clans could get loads of easy matchups. That's not happening...
