War Chart #5: 100% outmatched and my thoughts on TH .5

BADLY Outmatched
This is by far the worst match we have experienced ever since I started charting war weights. We were 100% outmatched on every base except 2 equal bases. How is that even a match?? And -56000 deficit on overall clan weight on a 25 base war is very significant. I think the programmers at Supercell needs to write an IF statement that :

If (outmatched base percent > 50%) then           DO NOT MATCH

My thoughts on .5 Base
After charting 5 wars, here is my thoughts on .5 base scenario
1. The value .5 base brings is obviously the offensive power is greater than it's defense. Overall, it brings down the clan weight.
2. I noticed that the Match will permit +/-2 TH level. Meaning, if we have 5 TH10, then the match can pare you up with 7 TH10 but a bit weaker. So if you had 5 legit TH10 and 2 TH9.5, we could have 9 legit TH10 in opponent clan, which is twice a much as our own. If your TH9.5 has the offense ability to two star their TH10, then it's prob not a big deal, but if not, you are stretching your legit TH10 real thin
3. It's a toss if they match you a TH10 with TH9.5 or max TH9 to your TH9.5. There is no rule, all random.

So with the above observation, given that our TH9.5 do have pretty good offense ability, I would advise not to upgrade to legit TH10.

TH8.5 is a different story. It's very hard to survive as a TH8.5 in the farming world. You can never save loot. Per my own experience, as soon as I built xbows, people stop wiping me 100%. So for your own benefits, I think TH8.5 should just go to a weaker TH9 while max out your troops.

More Thoughts on War Weight
The matchup system is severely flawed. I am hugely disappointed after looking at our last a few war data. When we outmatch opponent on base weight, we dominate, when they outmatch majority of our war bases, we struggle. So it kinda of diminishes this war game to  chances unless the clan overall knows how to take down bases regardless how maxed they are. Until then, there is only one rule :

My win/loss is determined by the probability to outmatch my opponent

Conclusion
To win wars these days, your only way to outplay the matching game is to be able to three star max TH9 and 2 star any TH10.. Same old same old right??
