Given that CG has apparently decided to give swgoh.gg sole access to the GAC History data, is there any chance CG could also "encourage" swgoh.gg to make that data available in a timely manner? The last round of GAC ended over 24 hours ago and yet the data is still not available.

Good luck in your round.

I can usually see what I need to see from the available data even if it's not from the most recent GA. As long as we're on an even playing field it's fine with me - and we are.My point was that we're not on an even playing field if the data is released at an unspecified time, potentially during the defence-setting period. I believe what they are getting at in that post, is that if the information is released to everyone at the same time, then we are all on an even playing field. Which is true.

swgoh.gg gives you data that CG gives them. Are you sure CG gave them data for last round?

Historically it has always been available before first round defences need to be set. Which is today.

This. The data is available in a timely manner, I believe they post it 3 days after the event, that is when they can access it.

As long as the data (and GAC history) is correct I'm fine with the current delay.

truth be told though, data are still not there... hope that won't become a habit

So you agree that this is unusual, and that the data would usually be available for setting first round defences? Perhaps you and I are the only ones here who are actually competitive at GAC.

As long as the GAC history is made available to all players at the same time we're all on an even playing field - competitive player or not.

This is only true if it is guaranteed that the data won't be made available at all prior to defences being posted. However, because there is no communication, and swgoh.gg isn't accountable to players, it is quite conceivable that the data will suddenly become available after some people have posted defences. It would be easily solved if the data would simply be made available "in a timely manner", ie consistently and predictably, whether that means we always have it for first round defences, or never have it for first round defences. It's the inconsistency that I'm objecting to.

We are on GAC 56 with three rounds each. If you can’t figure out your opponents defense tendencies after 168 rounds, one more week is not likely going to make a difference in your decision making skills.
