I see that you're saying that "Rating" will be based on multiplying a faction's "Stat Score" with their "Performance". Will either of these variables be "capped" in any way?

I have concerns about what a system that overly focuses on matching via "Stat Score" might do to factions with very 'abnormal' stat distributions. I have already seen some factions on the lower end of RWing in particular (Silver, Bronze) run into the situation where there are very few factions for them to fight in general, and only a fraction of those matchups contain what I would call a "close" or "even" stat matchup. Simultaneously, especially on the lower end of ranked warring, you tend to see a lot of "upsets" on paper; matchups where there is a great disparity between stat scores, but the opponent with the lower score tends to come out on top. Essentially, I just feel as though it's possible for an activity disparity to make up great distances between opponents' stats, and I hope that this "Rating" system doesn't make it such that factions can no longer regularly fight factions with a large score advantage on them, espeically when those factions have a history of winning in the current meta.

Not sure what you mean, we've had a couple of outside assistants, much like you folks, but Valour had a contested war yesterday and Prosperity has been busy with getting score on The Next Level the past day.

It's been a great fight though overall! I managed to get some sleep in last night but was otherwise always at the ready. Was fun fighting you folks! Would love to match again, maybe we can do HV vs Prosperity next time and go for the best of three? :P

Good luck HV, hoping for a real fun one this weekend :)
