It is about the position in your League and division. If you get constantly points removed with every squish, you would have to win more fights to balance out those lost points.

Add to that the months before I didn't take screenshots and let's be nice and just say I "only" lost 20 in 3 months, then it's 60 more...
That makes 154 points removed. The area of a division in Aurodium is give or take 100 points, so that makes 1 1/2 divisions.
I think this is unacceptable.
It's only "unacceptable" (I think it's a big word for such a small problem, but let's) if the squish doesn't work as intended. Squish/Push are there to maintain a balanced division population (20% in each league, something like 10/25/30/25/10 in each division, I don't remember exactly) in a tournament where the total number of players change each time. If the same percentage of players received the same rewards after the squish/push, then it's quite fair.
Tl;dr: It's bound to happen each GAC; the only issue is if it doesn't work properly.
It doesn't do that anymore. We already established that. All of Aurodium gets points taken.
Again, it is not about the rewards in relation to others. It is about a player's position in their Division/League and not being able to maintain it. If a player loses points and gets relegated, they get less rewards because they are pushed down where as they wouldn't have been relegated without the squish. And as said before, if this happens before every single new GAC, there is a lot of points one has to balance out which is not possible with the 50/50 so you automatically fall and fall. Nothing fair about it.
If you dispute the fact that people are being push down altogether, it’s not the same than disputing the fact that the push down doesn’t work how it’s supposed to work.
If at the beginning of a Gac, there are not enough players in Chromium and too much in Aurodium, then Aurodium is being push down. Seems fine, as long as it works properly. If it means in some divisions you’ll need more than 50/50 to stay still, so be it. Speaking from a guy who was squished out of K1 multiple times and can’t get a good enough win rate to climb back up.
When you talk about ‘fairness’, you make it about the system: keeping division population in check. That’s where I disagree. Now if you say that Aurodium is shrinking and doesn’t contain 20% of players anymore because they’re down in Chromium, that’s different and would tend to agree that it’s not ‘fair’.
Here is the easiest non math based visual aid from Scott over at events. To add some math less than 33% of joined accounts are in kyber or audorium. It’s suppose to be 40% according to cg. Even if we ignore carbonite (and the fact it has almost as many players as kyber and audorium combined) because it’s filled with non engaging or new players you still see a significant problem in league sizes between the top 2 leagues and the next two leagues.
