That's right ladies and gentlemen, it's that time of the month that everyone loves, Clan War League.

Despite it's regular occurrence, lots of people still don't know how it works and why it is "broken". This short guide hopes to explain that as well as providing relevant links to learn more.

Why is matchmaking so unfair?

Unlike regular wars, CWL matchups are not calculated off a defence and offence points based system (which you can learn more about here) but instead matchmakes purely based off your league, which is why often these unfair matchups occur. For example, if your clan that maybe is exclusively TH9s is in gold league 3, and a clan that is also exclusively TH13 is in gold league 3, there is nothing stopping the two of you being put together, resulting in an extremely unbalanced war. Many clans purposely get themselves demoted to have easier matchups, which is an unfortunate example of how you can abuse the system. There is nothing you can do about this sadly, and you just have to tough it out. The system is in theory designed to balance out eventually, as clans that get very easy wars will get promoted, however with clans having the amazing ability to recruit better or worse members, this idea hasn't worked too well yet.

But do not be disheartened if you find yourself losing a LOT of CWLs, when you're promoted you're guaranteed harder matchups, and it's not like regular wars where you can get crazy win streaks

How do the medals work?

After every CWL, a clan will earn a certain amount of medals depending on how they performed and what league they're in (which can be found in more detail here) that is awarded to every player that is or has been in the war. Leaders and co-leaders also have the option to award participants bonuses, and the amount of players that can be given bonuses is determined off the amount of individual wars won in the league. These medals can then be spent on rewards in the shop.

In summary, you could definitely argue the matchmaking is pretty crap, however it is the way it is and that is unlikely to change for now. Hopefully this guide has cleared up any confusion, and feel free to ask any questions or share ideas for improvement!
