Needless to say, we lost.

Just to be clear this is likely a slight misrepresentation of the data, as your guilds would only ba matched if the numbers were not full, it's important to not information like that to make a clear representation of the data.
Yes matchmaking needs to be looked at, but dont count yourselves out just yet. Give them a good fight, you may be surprised.
Not sure how this is a misrepresentation of anything? The guild on the right clearly went in with fewer than 50. This is known to cause bad matchups.
And I can tell from the data that unless the guild on the right is a Wakanda style guild, they won pretty easily.
Multiply number of teams per zone by 2 (and possibly subtract 1)
We both had 20 teams per zone, but my guild had 46 join.
You always set teams based on the lower participation number. 20 teams means if you had 46, they had 40 or 41.
It does. Bottom line is that GP is not really a good indicator of roster strength. Until CG expands on their MM, these matchups will happen. My advice is not to stress so much over it. When it happens, take your free zetas and move on.
Do you see that stated in the OP? I'm not making a big issue or anything, but players tend to present these types of images as the situation when its actually not, those comparisons are an inaccurate representation and that is not always understood.
Why does it need to be stated in the OP? Everyone knows what happened. Not sure what situation you think it isn't, because it was very clear that the guild on the right went in with less than 50 members.
I just don't understand how the image of the matchup can be a misrepresentation of anything.
Everyone does not know that, which is my point.
Because literally all the values on the side for the guild with lower number of players is wrong. Isnt it?
It is common knowledge that going in with fewer than 50 messes up the MM.
And no, none of those numbers are wrong. Why would they be? I have never known HotBot to return incorrect data.
And the OP clearly doesn’t understand that they weren’t up against the whole guild.
Of course not, but it's still always a great indicator of how the match is going to go. This is also common knowledge.
And while the OP didn't know how to tell how many they had join, he definitely seemed to understand it wasn't all of them.
But whatever. You guys want to say that the image is a misrepresentation of whatever, and because HotBot doesn't use the joined members for the data to downplay how awful the TW MM is, go right ahead.
