<br>The matchmaking algorithm is the unsung hero that determines exactly who you will face every time you press the 'Battle' button.<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>While this conspiracy theory is widespread, the reality is much more mundane and focused entirely on mathematical fairness.<br>

|
The Elo System Adapted
|
||||||
|
<br>The algorithm's primary goal is to match you against someone with the exact same—or very similar—trophy count.<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>This is why winning streaks inevitably end in a 'wall' of difficult matches; the system is functioning exactly as intended.<br>

If you are hovering around 50%, you are in the correct arena for your skill level.Queue times increase at the top of the ladder.You will eventually stabilize.

Level-Based Matchmaking
|

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

|
True Fairness
|
||||||
|
<br>By artificially capping all card levels to a specific number, the algorithm can rely purely on the Elo rating.<br>
|

|
<br>The algorithm is blind; it only respects victory.<br>
