+<br>If this system fails, the game becomes a frustrating, unplayable mess that bleeds players instantly.<br>
+<br>This article explores how developers design these algorithms to keep queue times short while maintaining a competitive environment.<br>
+The Elo System Adapted
+<br>Your trophy count is a numerical representation of your skill; win a match, and you take trophies from the loser.<br>
+<br>When you go on a massive winning streak, your trophy count inflates, and the algorithm begins matching you against significantly better players.<br>
+Do not expect to win every game.Because there are fewer Grandmasters, the algorithm struggles to find perfect matches.Losing streaks are also self-correcting.
+The Problem of Card Levels
+<br>The standard Elo system works perfectly for chess because all pieces are equal, but [tower rush](https://maru.bnkode.com/@inareymond268) games feature upgradeable cards.<br>
+<br>To combat this, developers have implemented secondary checks that look at the player's King Tower level.<br>

+True Fairness
+<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>
