GA: GL's vs. No GL's

I'm sick and tired of being matched with opponents who have Galatic Legends when I have none, especially against GL Rey whom there's no good non-GL counter. It's basically an auto-win for the player with the GL. Someone could have a couple million more GP than the opponent and still lose. If you want REAL "competition" you should have a mechanic that matches GL vs. GL for players and not just GP.

A GL is worth 10 revans. For it to be truly fair, it would double the value of a GL when calculating top 80 GP. That way, people who have GLs face other people who have GLs. That's the easiest way to fix this mess. I have no GLs and I'm facing someone with 2 GLs and a JKL.
You forget the prerequisites for Rey that you never use in GAC and inflate your GP like crazy.
However, there could be a case for Relics value compared to their GP cost imo. The GP difference between a G13 and a R7 is huge, much more than the efficiency difference in most cases imo.
Your roster management choices are what help or hurt you in matchmaking. "Mod manipulation" is fringe at best, I don't even give it a second thought.
Edit: corrected g13 count to 50. #derp
You didn't take relics into account. It a huge factor in GP.
I have 73 and 3 GL’s (and jkl). I had about 4-7 less before Crancor raid was just released and had to take those to r5 for the raid. Those extra relic chars and levels have def made gac harder lately though, but that’s how the system works so it is what it is
Post your swgoh.gg links to see the rosters.
GLey got more than 1 good none GL counter. If you don't know/have it it's on you.
Be better and stop crying
It was posted during 3v3. It's much harder to counter Rey without a GL in 3v3.
Vader can do that, GA$ can do that too
Sure Vader can do that. If going up against a garbage Rey comp. Or if RH Finn is hilariously slow modded. Or if you sacrifice 30 banners for the setup (Playbook has a good video about it).
JKR, GAS, Thrawn requires the same setup.
JKR, GAS, JKL is very risky.
Why are people still using a dollar for the "S" when he's been out for 18 months?

To justify bad roster decisions?

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

It's your roster construction, not the matchmaking.
And you do not understand the points being made.
What is being said here that the matchmaking algorithm should take into account whether someone has actually achieved getting a GL or not. The way it is working right now is that if someone is working on a GL they have built up enough GP to be matched against someone who has one or two GLs. Matching those two rosters would appear to be a flaw in the matchmaking.
The points have been made since the beginning of GAC, I do understand them, and no, it shouldn't.
You have 5.7m GP and no GL. That's not the matchmaking's fault.
You are welcome to choose to ignore meta toons. You are not welcome to expect the matchmaking to bail you out for it.
The thing with GL vs non GL is that it's impossible, not just more difficult. Like absurdly impossible.
There are counters to everything iirc
Still relevant.
I beat a GL last match without using my own and I didn't even have the proper counters prepared.
Exactly. Its rare that there is no path to victory at all if you have a deep roster and place intelligently. But that opens a new can of worms where you get punished in ranking for winning with defense and thats a diff discussion I know better than to start 🤪
