GP brackets for character-only GA

MetlaZhizni

Hi there!
Is there any info on how number of teams in character-only GA is determined?

Can’t find it, so would appreciate any help:)

Do you mean like a set requirement that only a certain number of trams are going to be used? And do you mean in total or for defense?

For defense- No. No set number was ever stated to the playerbase.
For offense- No set number exists because some teams take many attempts to beat.
For total- See For Offense.

Yeah, I mean the number of teams you set on defense.

I remember the table for mixed GA that showed how many teams would be set on def, depending on total GP.

But i think that it was stated that for character-only GA only characters GP determines how many teams could be set on def

Yeah, I figured that was what you meant, but I always want to make sure I understand what someone is asking before giving a full answer.

As for a set number, no CG did not unfortunately. I wish they had since it would clean up the forums a little bit since there are a lot of people asking that same question. From what I can tell, the top 2 Divisions have to place 8 teams of defense. 3 and 4 (and possibly 5, but not certain about that) have to place 6 teams. Not sure about any lower divisions with any other number on defense. I hope that they do give a full list during the full length GAC Exhibition in a couple of weeks, or at least one before the real GAC in August.

@CG_SBCrumb could you, please, provide us the info before actual GAC?

Div 5 2.35m gp doing 5 teams. Think it is based on Div of lowest rated player. So if div 4 faces div 5 you set at div 5 rates. This seems to be what the threads are suggesting.

I am Div 5 facing a Div 3 opponent and we both placed 5 teams.

There are some people in DIV 5 who placed 6 teams, so i don’t think it’s based on div

Which screws the div 3 player because they can only get pts based on 5 teams vs their pee4s who can earn more. But they benefit from higher div rewards being better. What a mess. No one will be happy which is the best CG can hope for?

Any Div 3 player getting matched with a Div 5 player has bigger problems, namely the fact that his opponent has a much more focused roster and is most likely going to curb stomp him.

At least it would be cool to have some feedback is def teams difference within one division considered as flaw or WAI
