Because CG wants to reward players, who invested more resources in their rosters in the rare cases of draws.

Or because the devs wanted a simple solution and picked this one back in the early GA days when matchmaking was always by total GP.

Wasn't relevant GP (Matchmaking/top-X GP) used as tiebreaker in the early days of GAC?

Honestly, I don't know which of the available GP values they use for tiebreaks since GAC changed the matchmaking GP.

I seem to remember that the tiebreaker was changed from top-X GP to total GP at about the same time they stopped cross-division and cross-league matches.

Not 100% sure, though.

This was never true.

Grand Arena was patched on 12/4/18. Developer Post: https://forums.galaxy-of-heroes.starwars.ea.com/discussion/189068/title-update-14-12-4-2018

From this post: Tiebreakers: In the rare occasion of the event ending with tied banners, the player with the higher GP will win. In the extremely rare chance of equal Banners and equal GP, a random player wins.



First season started 12/6/18: Developer Post: https://forums.galaxy-of-heroes.starwars.ea.com/discussion/189381/grand-arena-exhibition-season-starts-today#latest



Developers made another post about tie-breakers: https://forums.galaxy-of-heroes.starwars.ea.com/discussion/189892/grand-arena-tie-breakers#latest

From this post: If two players tie in Grand Arena with the exact same amount of Banners at the end of a round then Galactic Power will be used to resolve the tie. The Galactic Power of both players is captured at the time of matchmaking and does not update at the end of a battle. This means at the end of an event both player's GP may have changed and will not be representative of who would win in a tie.

Basically the GP you have when you press "Join" is the GP used to determine a tie-breaker.
