Can GP factor back into GA matchmaking now?
I've always loved GAC. Before all the non GL counter nerfs my Vader was a god. Could beat SLKR, Rey, JML and SEE. After the great nerf things got a little more difficult. But I managed. Would sti...

I think one thing that doesn't get spoken about is that the current system is almost designed to work if everyone puts in equal effort.
I am currently in the most mis-matched bracket I've been in since it started. I usually commit 100% to GAC and always try to do my best, so I really don't know if I've punched too high or what. I'm 7.5 mil, 4 GLs, 7* Exec. The rest of the bracket ranges from 8.0 to 9.8 mil, all with 6 GLs. One person, from CAW, has over 800 6 pip mods. I can't even fathom how much that cost. Here I am sitting with 214 thinking I'm doing well hahaha.
Now either I've punched too high, or some of the people just don't put the effort in or do not have the time to put the effort in. Either way, there is still a disconnect. You're gonna get to one point where someone who just doesn't care about GAC or can just freely buy the crystals they need is gonna drop to a point where no one in that bracket can beat them because of the huge variance in meaningful GP. You are gonna get to a point where skill cannot compensate for a lack of teams.
I get that everyone will have a ceiling they will reach and will eventually break through, but when you have krakens dispersing through the lower reaches... well as I said, the system would likely work a hell of a lot better if everyone put the same effort in. Compensating for this however seems near impossible.
