Quickmatch is the easiest way to find and join multiplayer War.app games with other players. Its goal is to get you into a fun, balanced game as quickly as possible.
Quickmatch is designed for both new and experienced players.
You can access Quickmatch under Multiplayer on the website or mobile app.
Playing Real-Time
Select the large green Play Now button to be placed into a real-time game. Real-time games are intended to be played in a single sitting.
Playing Multi-Day
Enable the Invite me to multi-day games checkbox to receive invitations to multi-day games. Multi-day games are meant to be played across multiple days, although they can happen faster if all players play more quickly. If you no longer wish to receive these invitations, simply un-check the checkbox.
You may set how many games you'd like to recieve at a time using the slider next to the checkbox.
Templates
New players start with a single template available in Quickmatch. As you win Quickmatch games, additional templates will be unlocked.
If there are templates you do not wish to play, select the Templates button to enable or disable individual templates. You always have full control over which unlocked templates Quickmatch may use when creating games.
After winning 40 Quickmatch games, you unlock template voting. Template voting allows you to vote for the templates you would like included in the Quickmatch rotation for all players.
Template votes are recalculated every 24 hours, and the 40 highest-voted templates are included in the Quickmatch pool.
Matching
Quickmatch attempts to pair you with opponents who are well matched to your skill level on the selected template. To accomplish this, it combines your template-specific Quickmatch rating with your global Quickmatch rating to create a match rating.
Match ratings generally correlate with player skill much more accurately than player levels, resulting in fairer and more competitive matches.
Lobby
If your preferred color is unavailable, and your alternate color is either not set or also unavailable, the game will be placed into the lobby before it starts. This gives you an opportunity to select an available color.
If you do not choose a color before the game's auto-boot timer expires, a random available color will be assigned and the game will begin automatically.
