"5- Grand Arena Matchmaking
I am bronzium 3 at the moment. I am 1.7 m, i have been matched against people that has 8m gp. That shouldnt be happening. Its been ages since i last saw someone that has less GP than me. Most people will say gp has nothing to do with gac wins but come on, i cant even fill defences in bronzium if i save enough to clear my enemy. I am not saying ı should be in kyber or gp based matchmaking should be back but at least add some sort of gp difference set for lower brackets. Like 500 k difference for carbonite, 1 m difference for bronzium and 2 m difference for chromium and above would be fair game for all. Otherwise there are way too much difference under bronzium and its basically 10 vs full clear lose or 10 vs 0 win. Thats unfun. It drives new players away."
If you want your feedback to be taken seriously, you need to be credible. None of the hyperbole.
"I am 1.7 m, i have been matched against people that has 8m gp."
As far as I can see this simply isn't the case. 'have been matched against people' suggests this is a regular occurrence. I believe it hasn't happened once. At the end of this season you'd have been matched up with players between 6-6.5 million 3 times in 27 matches. You also beat players of 5.2 and 4.8 million fairly and squarely. Those match ups at least should suggest to you that GP isn't the answer.
So you're currently sitting on 2290 Skill points, which is the highest you've been. This has you in Bronzium 3. Which means you've made a fair bit of progress early and you are probably higher than the average for your GP (just under 1.8 million). In this division you should be expecting to play up (in GP) and probably average a little under 50% until you can balance your account for Bronzium.
"Like 500 k difference for carbonite, 1 m difference for bronzium and 2 m difference for chromium and above would be fair game for all."
But this simply isn't supported by your stats. You're having 'fair games for all' with players double your GP regularly.
"Otherwise there are way too much difference under bronzium and its basically 10 vs full clear lose or 10 vs 0 win."
I guess you've been fully cleared 5 of your last 7, and probably more after this bracket is done. 2 of those though had similar GP. It does look like you're probably above where you should be right now. And you're likely to fall.
Your current bracket on paper looks a nightmare, which probably prompted this part of your post (if not the whole post). However, this is the first time you'll be meeting a player of 6.5 million.
Of your 24 matches so far. In my opinion 4 of which shouldn't be happening (that being you facing a high GP player who appears to be not playing or sandbagging).
Current GAC bracket
1.7 (Silcrow) 4.3 3.2 2.4 5.7 3.9 6.5 4.7
RESULTS
6.2 354-1060 *
1.7 67 - 1056 You couldn't deal with their Geos look into this. As this will happen often. Same GP and crushed
4.5 589 - 0 * So these players are the problem. How would you deal with this?
2.1 1055 - 1066 I guess this is more of what you want (if you're to lose anyway)
5.2 848 - 600 So this is where the GP argument breaks down. What do we do with this poor guy?
3.5 553 - 1035 Again, had problems with the Geos.
6.3 74 - 1040 * However, one attack/one win and then you didn't try.
5.4 520 - 0 *
2.8 592 - 531
3.7 10 - 0 Geo problem again.
3.8 432 - 843 Yeah just too buff for you
4.8 836 - 838 A good example of a mismatch in GP, being a good match up
2.5 828 - 0
3.1 833 - 842
2.9 843 - 620
2.9 362 - 847 Again with the Geos
2.4 405 - 0
2.6 836 - 785
? 859 - 10
2.1 863 - 444
3.6 872 - 833
2.6 224 - 206
3.3 616 - 625 Lost on an underman attempt (or didn't have a 5th) unlucky
1.9 438 - 851 A bit too nice of an account for you to beat.
* = This shouldn't be happening.
So yes there are 4 match ups of your 24 that shouldn't be happening. However, it's hardly the situation you're portraying.
