There are some HUGE errors in matchmaking that took place with the changes following the cancelled GA exhibition. For example, the group if guys I'm in for this GA exhibition is a disaster. I'm including screenshots. The top guy in my group is ranked around 6k in Division 1, and the lowest guy is around 47k in Division 2. That makes no sense, won't be competitive or fun for anyone. I play 2 profiles and the same thing happened there. It's as if it just pulled people from across all divisions. On one profile I'm a ridiculous underdog, and my other I'm a ridiculous favorite....I don't like either. That is not a fun competition because we aren't facing people that can a) compete with us, or b) that we can be competitive with. I'm sure you have already heard a lot about this, but your servers are gonna blow up with angry people today when offense opens. This really needs to be fixed so that everyone has a chance to compete. The ability to compete is what makes the strategizing fun! Being ranked 47k in division 2 and going up against a player ranked 6k in division 1 is not right.

And what are you even talking about here? I just ran both players through the bot match-up and it seems fairly balanced, not to mention both players have all the meta toons including Malak:
I think you need to go back to the drawing board if you're claiming this is your example of some gross unfairness with GAC matchmaking. In the prior GA mode, I was regularly facing people with 2 to 3 times as many G12s as me.
Seriously. You totally missed the big picture. If this was an even match, they would be in the same division. Here are screenshots of their Sith Meta. It isnt close. And, those numbers produced by the bot are wrong. I also posted screenshots of their stats and top 21 toons in each. This is far from an even match, and I'm not the only one noticing it if you look on Reddit.
You also can't claim "they both don't have maleks" cause that's how you see who is the best. People invest in different toons, you both have similar gear 12s so let's see who is the best. If they have malak and you don't, you just need go find a strategy that'll work.....
Put cls/3po and darth revan squads together together and jkr squad across from them so if they set malek on defence then they might struggle to clear those territories or whatever. Just come up with a strategy and if it fails and you lose at the end of the first week then you'll be matched up with another lot of losers and have a better chance the next week and so on. You are asking for the impossible.... Think if it like this, if I pick up malek this time around at 2.4 mil gp should I be matched with a 5mil person cause they have malek? of course not. There is never going to be a perfect matchup but if you have a close total of g11 and g12 then it's a fair match even if you don't have meta toons. That's for you to focus on.
