So I was excited that the GA matchup algorithm was going to be improved. I was also excited for GAC to start (correctly this time). The I go into my first round matchup... The person I am against...

There are certainly fair-er methods possible and they've already announced that was what they want to do. Trying to make it fair-er is not an effort in naught. And we are nowhere near there.
I'm not holding my breath waiting, that's for sure.
Hold it or not, it's on. Doubt you would like it to stay as it currently is. Folks are already into new method of how to circumvent it and gain advantage from it instead of just trying to play better without putting their minds into matchmaking itself.
All my viewpoints are based on the assumption that ea/cg can not ever get matchmaking "right", so all we can do is hope that the method they chose is favourable for us personally. Making adjustments to optimize the "competativeness" of your roster is a reasonable thing to do as well imo.
Ok then, we have to agree to disagree. I know how I exactly would do this if it was my job and I was allowed to. And what that entails is also in the announcement they laid out their intentions with. The possible optimization this new method introduces has little to do with developing a better roster too. Concentrated top end rosters are the future of competetiveness in GAC if it's here to stay. Just like the previous -keep lean to get an easy match- this also introduces no risk, only cg laid out+proven to work type of development.
