GAC draw results unfair for lower GP
Defaulting the victory to the higher GP in the result of a draw is completely unfair. If anything, the fact that the lower GP can achieve the same score with less potential resources shows that t...

Also, he’s not necessarily ruining your rewards. How do you know you would have beaten another player with, say 1.5m GP with the same skill rating that could have been in their place?
At least i don't feel cheated as in i have a chance compared to being at the mercy of the attacker.
Further more, see my cmt below.

Yea, the last sentence is the crust of the issue. Regardless of meeting unbeatable rosters (if they play), you will end up where win/loss is around %50 for you.
I am not a mathematician, but i think others who are can support me.
But firstly, i am sorry if i am wrong in this.

No, when i meet an attacker with much higher GP who put me on his mercy as in I can only win if he doesn't att me, my chance of winning is not 50%. It is only 25%!
(A)
When i click the button "view current round", i will be greeted with...
First possibility = an opponent with the same or lower GP (odd = 50%)
Second possibility = an opponent with higher gp (odd = 50%)
(B)
When I meet the second option above, i will be greeted with another 2 possibilities as follows...
First possibilities = he will att me (odd = 50%)
Second possibilities = he won't att me (odd = 50%)
So the odd of meeting an opponent with higher GP AND who will not att me = 50% x 50% = 25%!
So, that is 75% i will lose the game when i meet an opponent with higher GP.
Shocked?
That explains my precious cmt on how rarely i have met opponents with higher GP who didn't att me.
=====
While, when the game always pairs me with the opponents of (more or less) same GP, it is true that the win/lose chance is 50%.
Because I don't have to deal with point (A) above, there is no probability of meeting same-lower/higher GP, because we are of the same GP.
We only deal with win/lose probability which is, as you have said, 50%.
=====
So, it is indeed "robbing the rewards of the lower GPs."
Because our chance is lower than 50% which means that we don't have THE FAIR CHANCE.
There is a saying about this..."like robbing a baby"?
I rest my case.
