Since the update I've only won 2 GWs, I usually get to battle 9 or 10 and I'm going up against level 74 toons with VIII armor and 6 or 7 stars. My battle ridden teams even at full health have no chance against these fresh teams with full health and full protection bars. I don't have multiple teams to throw up against this. I never had these issues before the update, and usually won 4 out of 5 battles. Now, I win 1 out of 5 battles. Not cool!!!!

Also as the poster above said if you're not 73/74 and don't have a decent team you need to use some strategy with suicide squads and also need to level up some replacement toons.
Ouch that's harsh. I think that's just bad luck, I'm 74 too, haven't had any problems since the update.
I've got 2 good teams and over 40 other toons in my roster. The problem is my arena team has power over 32k so I face teams with fully geared qui gons Rey's RGs and dooku's. With the addition of protection it's impossible to beat that, as I have to get through more than 50k protection points in total each match while I have none
I think this is why you shouldn't pre-craft much if any. You will get hellish GW's.
I have beaten gw once since update
My top guys have protection gone by node 2
I face full protection level 68 up with a rg from node 1. (6 and 7* toons)
Yeasterday i face full out 7* with a few 6* from node 4 all gear 8 and 9 with omega abilitied players. Most all teams had fives...phasma...dooku....gs...qgj.....lumi or rey. A few savage in there as well.
So all top meta teams.....one after the other
Threw out a suicide team of 4star blue gear and never had a chance to attack.

@K1ngYoda - try not using your top guys for first few battles so they are coming into battle with full protection later.
that my usual lately....it is getting me up to the 10th or so node....I will keep trying though....

Agreed, GW is a dead subject for now.
EDIT: However, i finished GW every single time the last few weeks or even months.
The fixed payout times are the worst part of this game and makes it absolutely family-unfriendly.
Don't start with your top team. Start with marginal teams and work your way up from there. Take that team as far as it can go. I was surprised with the team I started with today. It wasn't even my usual B team. They went halfway through before I had to start subbing in. I think I was just lucky today. Usually, I only get three nodes in before they essentially become a suicide squad. The point is, start with a lower team on the lower levels so you can save your A team. No sense in losing their protection that soon.
Batdude, you may have the same issue, you may not. We would need more info to help further.

Key areas we’re also looking at:
Addressing concerns that Galactic War is taking longer than it used to for players
With the release of guilds and raids they won't be looking at GW for a while.
I agree, way too long! Still totally winnable.... not sure about 3x as long but definitely longer.

GW was my favorite part of the game pre-update. Now it's becoming...well, less so. They changed the one aspect of the game that seemed to be working well.

I beat the REAL T7 Yoda (not the nerfed one) and did so before mods were there to help
*This space left intentionally blank*
I feel for anyone who hasn't sunk a ton of money into the game that is high level.
I'm currently player lvl75 with nothing higher than lvl74 at the moment and a reasonable depth of bench, but I find myself doing so many retreats now that it's becoming a real grind to find the time to complete it everyday.
