The matchmaking algorithm is the unsung hero that determines exactly who you will face every time you press the 'Battle' button.
+
While this conspiracy theory is widespread, the reality is much more mundane and focused entirely on mathematical fairness.
+The Elo System Adapted +
The algorithm's primary goal is to match you against someone with the exact same—or very similar—trophy count.
+
This is why winning streaks inevitably end in a 'wall' of difficult matches; the system is functioning exactly as intended.

The standard Elo system works perfectly for chess because all pieces are equal, but [tower rush](https://code.nspoc.org/ifwnathaniel13/3144849/wiki/Understanding-the-Meta-of-Tower-Rush-Games) games feature upgradeable cards.

The system will try its best to match you with someone who has the same trophies AND a similar tower level.

By artificially capping all card levels to a specific number, the algorithm can rely purely on the Elo rating.

The algorithm is blind; it only respects victory.
