GA without counting ship GP

I don’t know about you guys, but I think that fighting someone at my GP level is a lot more fair than fighting someone with 300k less GP. Just remember that there are guilds that join tw with less than 50 members just to fight weaker guilds (less GP). Not counting ship GP only makes fights becomes less fair

Including ships GP when there are no ships zone is silly. Plain and simple. With no ships zone, your ships are as useless as the numbers in your ally code. You don't include your ally code in the algirithm, do you?

Including ships GP only when there's a ships zone makes sense.

I would rather be fighting opponents with comparable GP and skill.

Fighting opponents with 10%-50% more usable GP and random skill levels was a complete mess. Either they were less skilled and I could pull off a win despite my GP handicap or they were comparably skilled and I had no chance because of my GP handicap

Fighting opponents with the same usable GP is better. Now if they would just add a matchmaking factor representing skill. Most of my current bracket's rosters are comparable to mine with one exception: poor modding.

Pratically 90% of the players in this game aren’t very skilled. GP handicap isn’t a thing. If you have the right teams, the right counters and the right zetas, the rest doesn’t matter much

this seems like a very contradictionary statement.

Lol you guys are saying that ship Gp isn't usable GP, but having more ship gp makes people get zetas faster which makes them have better rosters. So yeah, you guys saying it doesn't matter is just stupid. and if I have a lot more ship GP than my opponent doesn't it mean for you guys that I have inflated GP? Fighting people with up to 300k less GP isn't fair in my opinion, and that's what is happening after this stupid change that cg made.

On the other hand, being less focused on fleet allows people to farm optimal squads without having to gear pilots. Including squads that can farm zeta mats in monthly events, such as Ewoks and Nightsisters. And since GA matches newer accounts with much older ones, there is no telling how many zetas your opponent might have anyway. My current opponent has less fleet GP than I do, but more zetaed g12 characters. Including Revan, CLS, and other heavy hitters that I haven't unlocked yet.

That just menas you aren't focused enough. COnsidering GA is around us for the past 4 months already, it's time to start

I'm not sure if that was a reply to my post, but being focused doesn't add several months worth of playtime, raid time and zeta farming time to my account. I only joined last November. When I'm matched with someone who has been playing since early 2018, of course I'm hopelessly out-zetaed.

I'm not complaining though. My point was simply that fleet GP says nothing about zetas since total playtime can vary enormously between two opponents.
