Hey all, Just a thought for how the community could help offset matchmaking disparities. If you are a notably larger account and outgun your opponent- attack first. This would drastically ...

I think most players would care more about the uneven matchups than who moves first but what would I know, I'm just a bottom feeder in low end Kyber 1 beating opponents with more GP/GLs about 60% of the time by attacking when I'm ready.
I’m more than a million gp less than you and ranked about a thousand spots higher in K1 and I always make sure I go second and run about an 80% win rate. Clearly going second is a distinct advantage, I like when they go first and try to scare me with a full clear.
/s for the inevitable anecdotal evidence warriors.
You have about 40 more skill rating. Well done, huge difference there! :D
It’s not about some made up number by CG, it’s about the difference in crystal income between a 60% win rate and an 80% win rate up to this point. I have no illusion that I will stay at that rate, but I also started a lot lower than you did when the initial seeding was done so I’ve had to win a lot more than you have to get to my placing and that means a lot more crystals. Does my roster/mods/strategy allow me to do that? Of course they do, but I use those things more efficiently when I go second.
Oh well if we're counting best season then I finished 11-1 in the first season of new GAC, over 90% win rate, just like old GAC and I didn't have to wait to attack second to do it. :D
Of course as you noted, I had less climbing space between my starting point and our current position so I've been chilling around the K1-K2 border ever since. Could I push higher? Maybe. Is it worth the extra effort? No, not to me. I don't put in anywhere near the time and effort that I used to.
