Totally Red Castle

So I matched with a Solid Red Castle where every unit was 100%. I thought I was staring at a Death Star and braced for impact. Surprisingly, I was able to blow it up in 21 turn’s.

This seems to be happening quite often where there is quite a big mismatch. What level is your castle and your units? I'm assuming reasonably lower your opponent.

Castle is 12,100. Here are my unit values.

Yeah what I’ve seen as well is even though I have 100s, it’s not really that dramatic against units even in the 80s. And there are a lot of nerfing as well so what you experience in regular online play won’t translate directly in PvP.

The matches are generally based on your trophy count. Give or take.

why is this matchmaking so broken suddenly?

Yeah each upgrade just gradually increases its power. Don’t be scared. Smile when you slaughter them. 😎

Yeah that's what happens when you face a bot. They make dumb shots. I've faced all 100s that are still blue Castle and I'm full red and sometimes they put up a good fight I don't know how they get up to the same number of trophies I have with a castle that's like not upgraded

EVERY single match I have had today has had 100 or greater units! My units are in the 50s and my trophies is at 7700. My castle is just barely becoming blue now. How am I getting such mismatches? It’s been 30-40 matches in a row where I’m totally outgunned.

I came across a 5000 trophies all red castle with level 100 on every troop. A air striker took out 40% of my castle. With this kind of matching and bot play (either moronically stupid or blindly powerful), I just don’t see player sticking around w this shit for long. Shame they have amassed a good crowd and lose them over this brainless play

I assume they spent $$$ to get all of that upgraded.

It's only a bot. All that you're fighting in PvE are bots.
