Depends on what GAC is supposed to be. A competetive mode with a higher focus on skill (fair matchmaking) or a competetive mode with a higher focus on P2W (disbalance in matchmaking).
This. CG has stated that GAC is supposed to be the former (almost all other aspects of the game are the latter - both arenas, raids, challenges, etc.) - but the matchmaking seems to indicate otherwise. I guess it's up to the player base to decide whether CG is incapable of creating a matchmaking algorithm that achieves their stated goal - or that their stated goal is not really their intention. :shrug:
Matchmaking is by top {x} GP. The player controls what that GP is composed of.
GP is a very poor indicator of effectiveness. A zeta on QGJ's leadership is the same amount of GP as GSky's. That's part of the point.
GP is not a measure of combat effectiveness at all, it is a measure of resource investment.
So players are matched with opponents who have a comparable amount of resources invested in their top {x} toons/ships.
How the players chose to invest those resources and balance the top end of their roster is up to the individual.
You don't have to go hardcore min-max to do well, in fact that can work against you, but if you fail to establish some kind of roster balance that you can work with then your GAC matches will be very difficult.
