<br>The matchmaking algorithm is the unsung hero that determines exactly who you will face every time you press the 'Battle' button.<br>
<br>This article explores how developers design these algorithms to keep queue times short while maintaining a competitive environment.<br>
How You Are Ranked
<br>Most modern strategy games utilize a modified version of the Elo rating system, originally designed for professional chess.<br>
<br>This is why winning streaks inevitably end in a 'wall' of difficult matches; the system is functioning exactly as intended.<br>
The algorithm does not care what deck you are playing.If you face a hard counter, it is pure statistical variance.It helps them learn before facing real humans.
Level-Based Matchmaking
<br>The standard Elo system works perfectly for chess because all pieces are equal, but [tower rush](https://cubicbricks.com/author/carlosakehurst/) games feature upgradeable cards.<br>
<br>The system will try its best to match you with someone who has the same trophies AND a similar tower level.<br>
Player PerceptionThe Mathematical RealityThe Loser's QueueThe 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
The Esports Standard
<br>By artificially capping all card levels to a specific number, the algorithm can rely purely on the Elo rating.<br>
<br>The algorithm is blind; it only respects victory.<br>
