This is comparable to all of college football playing only in their conference and then saying the national champion is in the MAC because they did really well against the other MAC teams. I guess it can be considered a strategy if you researched the game a lot before starting that you can "succeed" by keeping your roster crap, but this just doesn't make any sense. You are rewarding being not good.
Not really...it’d be like the best MAC team saying they were the MAC conference champion, which is usually how it works...because they didn’t win GAC, they won Division 9. If a MAC team plays an SEC team, the results are about the same as what you’d expect of someone in Div9 going up against Div1.
Just talking within the division though. Seems if a team doesn't have any powerful characters, then they don't have to go against any other teams with powerful characters. Even though the division does have teams with powerful characters.
So the main issue you have seems to be the gap in too large in division 9 for your liking. Or are you proposing that everyone in a division are just randomly matched with each other?
Both are likely to create more issues. I'll use division one as an example. If they just randomly matched people in division one, you'd have people with 4.5 mil gp and no GLs facing people with 8 mil gp and 4 GLs.
The complaining is bad enough when people who don't have GLs face those that do because they bloated their rosters. So that option doesn't work.
Division 1 definitely needs split up but at lower divisions, splitting them up too much would just make a ton of divisions for little benefit.
As far as the rewards go, being in the top 10 of kyber has relatively the same rewards as the top 1000 of kyber. You get a few hundred gac currency more.
Also, you will eventually hit the next division and be the small fish in the bigger pond. In the current system, you still have a chance to do well. In a system where you are matched against anyone that may have 500k effective go than you, you will eventually be the one with the lower go and the player you mention will eventually be the one with higher gp in a division potentially losing to a player with lower go.
So it all evens out in the end. It's not ideal but right now, I think they have a pretty good balance for matchmaking. Any potential solution to the issues you raise that I can think of would likely create worse problems than this one.
No, the power gap isn't that much. Besides, that gives you something to work towards. Some of the teams at the top have power near the top scale but still don't have well developed characters. I had much better when I entered the division. I actually finished in Kyber last season in the same division. This season I finished in Aurodium despite working to improve my roster and making a lot of very good improvements. I understand this is a strategy game, but should part of that strategy not be making teams that are good enough and powerful enough to compete against the others? If not, then why have power differences?

There are more ways to play the game. Your strategy is not the only one available. Different types of rosters/teams excel in different game modes.
Feel free to post a link to your profile on swgoh.gg if you want any advice to maybe hit Kyber consistently.
