7.4m GP vs. 4m GP

gnerally means the 7.4m player is bad, has bad mods, doesn't participate, etc. while the 4 million usually has: goos strategy, amazing mods, plays, ect.

Its fair because out of all the players in the game, playing GAC, you two are similar in skill

*skill rating

It would be cool if there was some sort of recognition for besting an opponent that out GPs you significantly, but then again maybe not.

If the complaint about the current rating system is that it pairs you with opponents that have too high GP, then getting a higher skill rating for beating higher GP opponents would only exacerbate the problem.

Anyhow, I feel like GAC is a lot more interesting since the change. As in I lose more than I did before but it forces me to think about what I can do to get the edge on higher GP players. I’m a fan of the new system.

Some day the sun will explode. They'll probably stop appearing then.

You each have the same Skill Rating, giving you a 50-50 chance at winning. That's the definition of fair.

Just on paper, friendo. Just on paper.

Can we maybe, just MAYBE, acknowledge the idea that the "Skill Rating" isn't calculated by CG correctly?

To use my own example, when they kicked this off it took me exactly 1 GAC to vault from Aurodium-3 starting GP up to Kyber-3 based on my "skill" from that 1 GAC.

Come on, a 5 bracket jump that fast? No thanks, to me that is putting far too much weight on "Win/Loss" and not enough on the base GP.

The reality is you shouldn't be jumping brackets THAT fast.

Either the single battles are worth too much or the individual brackets aren't "wide" enough, IMO.

I do agree. I don't think there should be big jumps like that. However, they're not happening now are they? I think the idea was to get everybody about where they should be, quickly. Which didn't really take into account the players that weren't attacking for the first GAC or 2.

I dislike that divisions 5/1 also swap places at the end of the season. What is the point of that? Jumping from *1 to *5 should be handled as any divisional change. This also causes problems with the skill rating. As players in lower league have a higher skill rating than players in a higher league.
