This new algorithm sucks.

i have 1,470,000 charachter GP, and i'm facing players 6 players with 300-500k more gp.
First round, against a guy with 400k more character GP. I have to set 6 squads with a limited roster instead the 5 if i were matched with same gp division.
enemy guy set his 2 best teams on defence. i cleared 3 of 4 territories cause i hadnt a well sorted 70k team to beat his last team 62k old republic.
Enemy cleared 3 of 4 territories, and in the last one he defeated my nightsisters with 4 attempts, only because he had more squads than me.
I find this limited gp to the x2 defence very stupid. Who has a 400k wider roster can just set on defence better teams to slow enemy and for attack phase just counting on his bigger number of squads.
How this can be fair?

Furthermore, the amount of defensive slots is determined by the lowest GP member of the group - at least that's how it was in GA (I assume it's the same in GAC).
You are wrong, in the exibition that failed i was matched with my same gp players (division 4), and i had 5 defences slot, when they rebooted due the bug, i was matched, as this GAC, against players of higher division (division 3) and i had 6 defence slots.
I'm sure it's the opposite of what you are saying. Higher GP players define defences slots.
In this week they could analyze the average of squads used in all 3 rounds and they'll find would never be exacly the double of defence slots. but more. They could make the MM counting more squads than the 2x defence. and have a more fair and realistic MM.
As a Division 5 player I set 5 defensive squads regardless of whether my opponent is Division 5 or Division 3 (as my current opponent is)
As a Division 4 player I am pretty sure you should be setting 6 squads if your opponent is Division 4 or better. You should only be setting 5 squads vs a Division 5 opponent.
Really? Those dont cost me a dime.
That seems like an issue. I’d report that as a bug. The initial details of GAC said if two people were matched from different divisions that have a different number of defensive slots, then the number of defenses for the match would be based on the lower division player. The opposite of what happened to you.
I don't understand this post. What are you implying? That kokie, with 27 g12+ and 24 zetas is some sort of whale? That spending any money (and you offer no proof that kokie has) makes someone a whale? What exactly is your angle here?
Also, he's right. It's easy enough to get that Mk12 ArmaTek Thermal Detonator without spending any money.
This. If you both 3 of 4 territiories (initially) - that's much more even than other matches I've seen this (and last) GAC.

I beat the REAL T7 Yoda (not the nerfed one) and did so before mods were there to help

Yes, no matter if you can use only 12-13 squands ''with relevant gp'' and enemy 18... only because MM decided you must be have a challege against a 400k gp higher. This system not show who is better, just show who is lucky with mm.
Players saying they smash enemy with 1kk gp higher, well it means that enemy really sucks in many aspects (slow mods, old pg, bad strategy). is not a relevant example.
Yes, your opponent beat you. Yes, they may have had a modest advantage in roster depth. But what you described playing out- you down three territories, they down four with multiple attempts- was a fair and reasonable match regardless of what the decisive factor was.
dude, research relativity in a dictionary. they are not fluff...
anyway a system must work for 1mil, 2, mil and 5 mil. is plenty of higher gp players complaining this.
Did you know you can do this crazy thing called hoarding crystals? And use those crystals to buy refreshes? And use those refreshes to farm G12 finishers?
Four G13 is not out of the realm of possibility for a f2p by now, nor is having Malak. It just takes a smart f2p who has figured out how to build up resources and use them effectively.
This. I no longer have to limit my upgrades for fear of harder matchups, and my fluff from years ago isn't hurting me anymore. Every matchup is even, and gac is pretty fun. I wish ppl would actually read up how it matches before whining so much.
@JDIII , you my friend, are a riot. You just keep being you and don't worry about the haters that try to prove you wrong with "facts". Your gut instincts are worth their weight in gold.
It's funny how you're frustrated that others aren't understanding what you're arguing. They do understand. They just don't agree with you.
What is this even supposed to mean?
Also, they don't charge $50 for a G12+ piece unless they have an actual purchase for cash for the piece. You can't compare crystal cost for gear and crystal cost for money because there are more ways to get crystals than just money.
You posted a picture of how much it costs in crystals, not money.
