I replied to other thread, but pvp and rivalry is only used to find shardmates it seems.
So anyone make any sense of that? Higher gp wins in case of a tie?
Could anyone try to explain the reasoning behind this? The guy with the HIGHER GP performed worse overall, by getting the same number of banners, so he should win, because he would feal twice as bad, if he would loose. Now he feals bad, because he performed worse, and lower gp guy feels bad, because he lost. So, by CG logic, they both feel good, because ... well, nobody is better. So it's a tie. And everyone's happy. Really?
Like if the guy with two legs had the same 100m run race result as the guy with one leg - the two legged wins right?

Well, I think a bit, there are dependencies between spendings and rosters...
The people mentioning spending are just sour grapes merchants. It does indeed have nothing to do with it.
Remember though, that people are matched on the GP of their top X toons. So your claim that the lower total GP has “done better” is flawed, because the GP of the toons they actually used in the battles is pretty much identical to their opponent. The fact that the other ~100 toons in their roster are lower GP than the opponent just isn’t relevant.
It’s a decision the devs made - when two players tie they have decided to reward the player who has developed the whole of his roster more. Accept and move on.

Nope! Higher or lower total GP is not what wins or loses rounds.

Maybe it's just me but seems like that's the most logical reason someone should lose.
If you lose by battle i'm with you but a draw is a draw.

They decided the points for placing defenders, winning fights, having full health protection, etc...
This is just another of the rules that you should know about and take into account.
So, just like building a roster with no fat in the top 80 can help you win at GAC, building further gp outside your top 80 can help you win when the points are even.
I think the reasoning from the developers around this rule was they did not want to penalise anyone who has invested more (time or money) into developing their roster further. They don't want to give people a reason to not get more stuff.
False logic, his performance was equal, not worse.
Would you feel the same if the GP difference was just one point?
My roster is big because I spend my gear instead of hording it. I’m not a free player because I can afford a little every now and again when I want to support the game, but I definitely haven’t spent anywhere near minnow amounts over the past 4 years.
I put a zeta on Gar Saxon last night.
Long story short—you can have a big roster without spending money. You just have to use gear instead of holding it all in reserve.
Oh wait, everyone except for Rey owners.
