GAC layout

Are y’all going to fix this because Grand Arena has been the least fun part of SWGOH recently when it used to be the best. The power difference between opponents is ridiculous, and the amount of teams we have to set on defense is ridiculous. It doesn’t matter if they’re only against me because they suck, at the end of the day they have 3 million more power than me and can afford to place all relic characters on defense and still wipe out my offense while I have to use scrap to get by one or two teams. I used to win pretty much every time and that shouldn’t have ended because of this nonsense.

    “I used to win all the time” can be interpreted in someone who is set in the past and is unwilling to accept the present.

    GAC, since the crystal shift, isn’t meant for someone to have a 100% win rate. Even if it feels really nice to have a undefeated streak. In the long run, your win/loss rate should be around 50/50 depending on your skill level.

    This is also your second post on this topic, you can easily go back to your first post to see other people’s viewpoints on this.

    Nothing is guaranteed until the attack phase is over. If you’re going into GAC thinking your matchup is a guaranteed loss, you’re never going to win

    No I’m not “stuck in the past” but the “present” sucks balls. And the whole point of grand arena is to try and win, so players should at least have the chance at a 100% win rate. Nobody wants to play grand arena for a guaranteed loss


    You obviously don't realize these two statements are in direct contradiction with each other. If one player has a chance at 100% win rate, that means the other players facing them are often looking at guaranteed losses. A chance at 100% win rate means that the match making has failed and is not creating fair matches. A match maker using a rating based on win/loss and who they beat has a much greater potential for creating fair matches than the previous system. In a fair system you should expect losses.
    So yes, you are stuck in the past. I certainly enjoyed my 82 match win streak, but even then it was unrealistic to expect to win every match.
