Tier 1 in Clash is extremely unbalanced
Turns out matching a team of low Diamond Players vs High Challenger Players who are all current or ex-pros leads to one-sided games

or seeing full silver/gold in tier 4 that have a Plat 2 + in and they still remain Tier 4.
Turns out that better players just win. [slayer-pantheon-popcorn]

In my games the first day there was a gold gold bronze gold plat team, and also a plat plat plat diamond diamond team. I understand them saying they were going to balance based on highest player, but that doesn't seem accurate at all.
Tier 1 should be diamond 3 to challenger.
Tier 2 should be plat 3 to diamond 3.
Tier 3 should be gold 3 to plat 3.
Tier 4 should be silver 3 to gold 3.
Tier 5 should be Everything below silver 3.
The tiers should be weighed by the average of all members of the team, since Riot did say that they were aiming to "not allow" smurfs.
Just pay them $5 to throw the game. If it works in Worlds, it works in Clash!
