The matchmaking algorithm is the unsung hero that determines exactly who you will face every time you press the 'Battle' button.
+
This article explores how developers design these algorithms to keep queue times short while maintaining a competitive environment.
+How You Are Ranked +
Your trophy count is a numerical representation of your skill; win a match, and you take trophies from the loser.
+
When you go on a massive winning streak, your trophy count inflates, and the algorithm begins matching you against significantly better players.
+It only looks at your numerical rating.If you face a hard counter, it is pure statistical variance.AI opponents ensure instant queue times for beginners. +The Problem of Card Levels +

+
To combat this, developers have implemented secondary checks that look at the player's King Tower level.

Because the ladder algorithm must balance queue times against fairness, it will never be perfectly balanced.

The algorithm is blind; it only respects victory.
