GA seeing attacking team.

There is a lot of Cheating in GA, even just looking at the points in Leader-boards its only possible by taking out all teams with 1 character and doing all the feats. At the 4.5+ mil GP mark you know thats not possible with everyone putting DR Malak on def.
So i have a suggestion for the Dev team, what about putting the ability to see what team your opponent used to beat your team. It would be a easy way to track players cheating. Like if someone use a gear 8 team to beat a gear 12+ DR team you know something is wrong.
what do people think?

I'm fine with this idea. However, I would focus the reason to find out more towards "People that are curious to know what kind of team beat them maybe able to use this information to make a better defensive team." route and helping to detect cheaters as a side benefit.
In either case, sounds good to me.
I haven’t cheated. I’ve won every battle first time, 12 of them undersized and I’ve completed the fleet feat. Which scores are you so convinced have been obtained by cheating?
I’m in Div 3 and the leader has 6120. I’m not sure how that person could get that score.
90 points for setting defense (x6 and x3)
64 points for perfect attack (x6 and x2)
180 points for front territories (x2 and x2)
150 points for back territories (x2 and x2)
Multiply that out and add it up to get 5708. I don’t remember how much the old feats were, but this person would need to collect 412 points from feats to fill in that gap. I don’t think the total available feat points account for that (since some feats are new and some couldn’t be completed at this point).
It’s not unreasonable to question some of these scores.
There are issues with the points, they have stated as such.
No there is not "a lot of cheating".
This suggestion has come up before and I think it's not a good idea. One, if people suspect cheating they can report it, so we dont necessarily need extra tools to examine someone else's strategy.
Secondly, why should someone with a winning strategy be forced to "educate" his opponents? Yes there are few secrets that hold out for any great length of time, but if someone has one or starts one, they shouldnt be forced to share it.
On the cheating note, I would also suspect it would be a wash, i.e. - the number of people reported for cheating based on no information (like we have now) would be almost equal to the number of people reported when someone thinks "that team could never beat mine!". At times we see a general lack of understanding passed off as the other person is cheating, when it's really synergy and strategy that won the day.
Not cheating at all, it's just that the opponents put s**t defense. I'm also in Div 3.
This is a lazy argument and I think you know it. It's probably why you post it and then refuse to expand beyond "I want to keep my secrets".
If the information is not available to the players until after the round finished, it's fine with me. It's not really needed, but a nice to have feature. It could help you evaluate your own strategy.
However, it should never be available during the round.
Is this most of your matches? How did you get opponents like this???
I’ve yet to face anyone that set a team with less than 90k power lol. Please trade opponents with me
Nah, usualy i have..., well... "normal" opponents it's just that i got lucky this time xD
Edit: my final opponent will be the real deal
Even clearing with 60 is hard, for those GA hardcore players will know to always have a fast AoE character on def, due to the fact that you can knock opponents 5 points from the fight just with one AoE.
Lol that’s not true. If you’re paying 10k per year, you’re doing something wrong.
I rarely see DR/Malak on defense. Most people save that team for offense to make sure they can beat whatever the best D team their opponent has.
But... but... knowing that you can use this team to beat that team doesn’t mean you can beat them! It doesn’t change anything!
Out of curiosity, what division are you in? In my division almost everyone that has DM puts him on defense.
There's only been one time since Grand Arena was introduced that I felt like my opponent might have cheated. They had all their best squads on D but somehow managed to take down multiple solidly-modded, full-G12 teams, including JKR, with like G11 Ewoks and Empire and stuff. They still lost, but it didn't seem like they had anything even remotely capable of fully clearing my board.
Division 1
4.89M personal GP.
We must be running on opposite sides of D1 then. I would love to face opponents that save that team for offense.
Hmmm. How many Russian's play this game?
In Marvel Strike Force they have this very feature... in Alliance Wars, you can go in and see what teams the opponents used to win or lose with.
It should be a simple add.
