    Hi @sirscientist and thank you for your posts.

    Whilst I can understand your frustration, there is no need to be that aggressive about.

    A challenge match will be triggered, when

    1 - Your opponent has at least 200 medals more than you on the Faction they are playing.

    2 - Your opponent's army is, on average, 1.4 levels higher than yours AND you are within 3 of the League Cap (in Masters League, for example, the cap is 13, so Challenge Matches require 10+ average army level). This additional requirement is to stop players using lower level units and having endless challenge battles where they can only climb.

     

    Feel free to leave constructive feedback in the Feedback section.

Could be a little less pugnacious there.

But I agree - Matches that disparate in power are pointless.   I'd like to say I'm some rockstar at this game but, less face it, most of aren't.  And I HAVE beaten higher level opponents in challenge matches.  But you have to play perfect, you have to align the stars, they really have to think you'll just roll-over, and it's really not my idea of fun.  I mean, if I won a fight with a guy who had units 2 levels higher then mine... well... he must have really been terrible, no?  It's a sad kind of victory.

Anyways - agree - matchmaking at this point is often unacceptable going in both directions.  My rise in power shouldn't be based on Rando offering me opponents 2+ unit levels - and 15-25+ player levels higher then myself.
