    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.

    Write mean poetry.
    Best way to mock you people,
    By making haikus.

    I think you give yourself way too much credit.

    What credit is that?
    I never said mine were good,
    Just that haikus are.

    My screen says 3v3 AND ships. Why is everyone saying yay 3v3 and no more ships?

    Cart before the horse.
    CG didn't mention ships,
    So they guessed there weren't.

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

    ...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.

    Ships are the real GAC. Because ships are part of nearly every other game mode too.

    Maybe work on your ships.

    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.

    You hate it because you have to actually understand kits; which you obviously don't if you think it's 5v5 or nothing. Forget today teams, and look at individual kits, and you'll find way more teams to use in different contexts than is viable in 5v5. That's why 3v3 is fun. Knowledge and imagination, rather than just looking at a list of teams to use.

    3v3 can be fun, but the issue with this is that we have no idea how a 3v3 team can handle the GL’s and if it’s way too much of an unfair advantage. If only there were some sort of mode where we could test that...hmmmm

    Don't care for the GL I won't see them for a long long long time and by the time I get to that point they won't be relevant enough.

    Me either, but I would like to know how to counter them with a lower manned team. Which loops back to the sandbox issue lol

    I dont see them adding sandbox mode its too expansive and not free, so just hope the youtubers will post some videos with a 3 vs 3 set up

    But they have no test accounts anymore... ugh...I’ll never get how a game that pulls in over a billion dollars in revenue, could ever cry poor with the “too expansive” excuse...

    Because the expense isn't monetary cost, it's developer resources cost.
  • I normally love GAC. I have probably a 90% winning percentage in 5v5 in D2. Check my History if you want - it’s a sea of green. https://swgoh.gg/p/225812523/

    But this 3v3 is pure hot garbage and I’m not wasting my time or getting my blood pressure up during this global pandemic where tension is already peak.

    My first battle timed out with both squads at near full health and protecting. My defense is set. See you next month.

    CG - please don’t do this again for a long time.

    I love GAC and I have reached Kyber in every GAC so far, progressing through four divisions.

    3v3 is a great tactical challenge, putting participants outside of their 5v5 comfort zones and both devise and face all manner of unusual squad compositions.

    I will be shooting for Kyber same as always. Maybe I make it, maybe I don't but it wont be for lack of trying.

    CG - please continue to vary the GAC configurations, it keeps things fresh and interesting.

    something you aren't doing well in /= "hot garbage"

  • Hot garbage equals something that is such nonsense that it makes me physically ill.

    And if by not well you mean one attempt that ended in a timeout and no desire to spend any more time on it then yes, I’m not doing well.
  • I’m sorry for calling the game mode hot garbage. I guess I just don’t want to spend the time and energy figuring out winning teams. If two top teams face off and it’s a draw then it tells me I’m not going to have fun. This is a game. I want to have fun. I’ll do that elsewhere. You can keep the zetas.

    I think the real question is why not 4v4?...

    Well yeah.

    What did you do when 5v5 first was introduced?

    I get your point. The first time 3v3 came around I thought it was neat. But thems were different times. Fewer unbeatable characters.

    I think my main issue is it’s so long between 3v3 that all my saved squads were obsolete. It is what it is. I still think it’s trash.

    I went back and looked and I had UP back then. So not that much has actually changed, other than Rey and Kylo.
