If this system fails, the game becomes a frustrating, unplayable mess that bleeds players instantly.

This article explores how developers design these algorithms to keep queue times short while maintaining a competitive environment.
+How You Are Ranked +
Most modern strategy games utilize a modified version of the Elo rating system, originally designed for professional chess.
+
If the system matches you perfectly, you should mathematically have a 50% chance of winning every single game you play.
+Do not expect to win every game.Because there are fewer Grandmasters, the algorithm struggles to find perfect matches.You will eventually stabilize. +Level-Based Matchmaking +
The standard Elo system works perfectly for chess because all pieces are equal, but [tower rush](https://www.gamesfree.ca/read-blog/90835_tower-rush-vs-real-time-strategy-what-039-s-the-difference.html) 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 TheoryThe Mathematical RealityForced Loss StreaksThe algorithm does not force losses; you are simply playing tilted against harder opponents because your MMR is inflatedThe Deck Counter 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.
+
When levels are equalized, the matchmaking system shines, ensuring that the better player almost always wins.
