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.
+
When you go on a massive winning streak, your trophy count inflates, and the algorithm begins matching you against significantly better players.
+The algorithm does not care what deck you are playing.If you face a hard counter, it is pure statistical variance.AI opponents ensure instant queue times for beginners. +The Problem of Card Levels +
The standard Elo system works perfectly for chess because all pieces are equal, but [tower rush](https://mestate.us/author/bradymarron01/) 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.
+Conspiracy TheoryHow it Actually WorksForced Loss StreaksThe algorithm does not force losses; you are simply playing tilted against harder opponents because your MMR is inflatedAnti-Strategy CodeDevelopers have confirmed repeatedly that the algorithm does not read the contents of your deck when finding an opponent +True Fairness +
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.
