GAC matchmaking - supposed to be funny?

I've been in brackets where a player with R7 GAS +all relic 501st is facing a player who doesn't have a single character of 30k GP (R7 GAS is 37k+). It was - and always will be a route. Most meta teams (GAS, DR/Malak, GG, etc.) can't be beaten down by depth. Either you have the counters and can beat them or you don't.
Matchmaking is poor at best. I'm not sure, with all of the well documented flaws, bugs and issues in this game, why people think that CG got something as complicated as matchmaking in a constantly changing environment miraculously right.

If you think about it, this is how normal tournament seeding works. You don’t want the 2 best playing each other in the first round.
