Fix broken TW matchmaking
Why hasn’t TW matchmaking been fixed like GAC? Between blatant sandbagging and the horrible MM algorithm, you are either given a guaranteed win or a guaranteed loss. It has caused way less interaction...

Our next opponent has a 129-6 TW record. There is no way in the world we should have been matched with them. I guess the matchmaking algorithm does not apply to them.
is overall win record supposed to be part of the matchmaking?
why would it be?
Supposedly, recent win record is supposed to be part of matchmaking, but that is hard to determine from what we've seen.
I think it might be good for overall win record to be part. This guild we are facing right now has their TW game down pat. It would be good for those elite guilds to go against each other. To have a challenge instead of rolling over every guild they face.
Here are the scores from their last 8 matches
17878-12969
16794-12169
19806-13046
21267-14485
24049-9544

Only the 8th one was close.
I don't know what the game's actual goal in matchmaking is, but I doubt that this is how it is supposed to work.
Similarly our last match was against a guild that is now 45-100. I don't think we should have been matched up against them either.
Our guild is 75-71 right now, so overall it might seem that matchmaking is producing the intended result for our guild, but it doesn't appear to be doing so for the guild we are facing right now and the previous one.
It seems to have been a couple years since we last heard any word on TW matchmaking, maybe it is time for CG to say something again.
I don't think it is the win record, I think it is your loss record, after so many losses they try to throw you a bone.
