Draws in GA

Said no one ever:
I won in a tiebreaker for having the most GP. That’s an unfair tiebreaker, and my opponent should have won. This system is really wrong.

A "DRAW" occurs in a single battle. A 'TIE' affects your final score. Chances are, if you have defended to several draws and required your opponent to use 2nd/3rd battles to defeat a team of yours, you will WIN that match and not have it result in a "TIE".

.... really?

Nah, they're wrong. A Twin Ion Engine will not affect your final score most of the time.

draw

a game or contest that ends with the score even; a tie.
synonyms: tie, dead heat, stalemate
"the match ended in a draw"

Who wins the Ryder Cup in case of a tie?
The defending champion. Higher gp player can be seen as defending champion imo.
Accordingly it wouldn’t make sense the lower gp player wins in case of a tie

Not a great way to look at it... the higher GP isn’t the defending champ they’re both people just come into a GA one has slightly more GP than the other.

Not sure how that equates to one person deserving the win over the other based on very small GP differences.

Right, but in SWGOH, he is correct

i had the least amount of GP last GA (last in the ranking pre-battle), but definately not the underdog.

That’s good for you, however you probably didn’t draw, if you had ended the match with a draw you would have lost.

My question is how that is a fair way to decide the winner, it’s a good enough question. :)

Correct, but irrelevant.

ofcourse i didn't draw since i had a (way) better roster than all 7 of my opponents. I thought the point i was trying to make was pretty obvious; having the least GP doesn't make you the underdog, so there's no reason the player with the lowest GP should be more deserving to win in case of a draw.
How is it fair? It's basically just a coinflip so it's 50/50 you'll be the one to win instead of the other player. Having the lower GP win instead doesn't change that.

Yeah so it’s a daft system and I got your point... however again doesn’t change the fact that the decision system on a draw is daft.
