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 still hit Kyber (in the old system) about half the time.
After the new skill rating things went well for the 1st few weeks. Then its just slowly gotten worse. I am at 7.6m gp. Faced multiple people at 9m gp plus with all 6 GLs.
Now 3 out of my last 4 matches have been players at roughly 8m gp with 5 or 6 GLs to my 3.
I understand that I have less GLs then some people at my GP. And that's my choice. But the simple fact that GP means nothing for matchmaking now makes no sense to me. I like skill rating, but it cannot be the only factor.
Im not expecting to get matched with people at my exact GP and GL amount. But amount of GLs aside, 500k or more GP discrepancy is a big deal. Thats roughly 4-5 more fully reliced teams.
