It’s also to cater for different types of players. A lot of us actually really enjoy 3v3.
I can't understand why. The game just wasn't designed for it. It was designed for 5v5. And now with units that can summon one, it makes it 4v3 and unwinnable in most cases.

Horrible, horrible idea.
Those same teams are 6v5.....
And one of the teams with a summon is easily countered with 2 characters...

The 3v3 format per se is not the problem. It's actually enjoyable since it's "something else". The problem are some characters being too new to the game (so only a very limited amount of people have access to them) and way too strong (GL Rey trio in the upcoming 3v3 GAC, SE trio with Malak in older 3v3 GAC).

Many people enjoy it and think it's a great idea, our opinion is just as valid as yours. And my opinion is the most valid of all, as I believe most of us would agree.
Lastly, just because something wasn't designed for a specific purpose, that doesn't mean it's not a positive development.
There could be easily even two different GACs running to have more gaming to do, maybe it would feel like a chore to some very fast. But it wouldn't hurt so much if you would not put 100% effort. There are already tons of players who just join and forget about it. Personally I don't like fighting without ships (cause I have the advantage on those) but also I don't like how uneven it makes the matchmaking, I have min-maxed everything and have 5v5 / 3v3 much easier matchups without ships. So it's 50-50...
If you use 2 units that summon an extra unit can this become 5v3?
I believe there is only one spot for summoned chars. Look at TB, can’t summon the brute and the battle droid.
Not sure what would happen, if you ran GBA and ARC, coin flip on who gets summoned?
I will have to look, it was covered in the QA or somewhere. There is an order, I think it has to do with the order they are placed into the team, but yes only 1 will summon.

Interesting question. Taking a 3-man squad with ARC and BA into a PVE battle should answer it easily enough.
IIRC, the Devs have already answered this. There is only one slot for summoned toons, and I believe ARC takes precedence over Alpha, so the battle will start with a turret but no Brute.
As to which 6th gets summoned, my guess would be depends which summoner is leftmost in the squad slots but again, a simple PVE test would answer these questions.
Makes sense the ARC Trooper takes precedence. ARC summons at the start of the battle and then can't summon mid-battle. Brood Alpha summons at the start, but can also summon again through the second special.
Yea 3vs3 really is terrible but f2p players need the rewards even more so, but there are few bigger headaches than this in the game so since I'm sure they will put me up against people with gl's anyway I'ma join for the rewards and not play gac this month.

You get matched on top {x} character GP. It takes a lot of r5+ characters to unlock a Galactic Legend and that means a lot of matchmaking GP bloat. The only way you are getting matched with someone who has a Galactic Legend is if you have added a similar amount of relic-bloat to the top of your roster.

I have been pushing relics to conquer territory battles and assault battles more so than galactic legends acquisition and last month I got paired against opponents with 1 fully geared gl 3 times, I must meet the relic 5 quota your speaking of but it sure doesn't feel fair.
...and it's ships again... huge disappointment. Are all GAC's going to include ships from now on? It's been months since we've had a real GAC. How about a little variety? I'd like to see 50% with and 50% without.
What's the best way to express loathing for 3v3?
Sign up & dont play?

GAC is the only enjoyable game mode & now, with 3v3, it's gone.
I realize there are like 12 ppl that enjoy it but maybe not bank on the future of swgoh thru those 12 ppl.

We’ve had 3v3 plenty of times before. The future of SWGOH still seems to be intact after every 3v3

I love the variety, but this is a better balance. And 4v4 would be cool too.
So much this ^ iterated to infinity

they posted exactly what happens when they released arc, not a coin flip. Pretty sure arc is preferred.
