@Waqui I do have a counter for Dr and Malak, they’re not quite there to challenge all gear 13 meta team version of it yet, but I have one. That’s not the point. I’m going to use my current match as an example, also keep in mind I now my place in the game and none of it matters because there’s other areas I put more time into than just GAC.
My current opponent is pretty solid. He has 16 gear 13 toons, I have 4. That alone isn’t enough to really be too concerned about, because depending on who he has at gear 13 most counters are good enough to overcome a lot.
One of the main issues is how OP the meta is currently. I could use my counter team, I won’t win, but I could use them. Say I lose, I could use GG to have another shot, probably won’t win there either, he’s built this team to be really good and that’s awesome.
My thought is if there’s no one on my roster then I probably don’t belong in a match with them. It’s a strategy game so there should be some strategy to putting something together to beat them. That’s just my opinion, there should always be a way to win a match. Currently I could use my roster and not make a dent in their arena team, because there’s only a handful of counters atm. So after Padme and GG I don’t have much left to offer. In my opinion I should be able to whittle that team down enough to beat them with as many gear 12 toons as I have. Idk if I’m explaining that the way I mean it.
As far as building rosters a decent percentage will always be chasing a meta, right? That’s part of the point of the game. I understand that. I just think people shouldn’t be placed against people when there isn’t a chance to win. I don’t mind a challenge but I do want to have a chance at least. Competitiveness is always good.
People work hard to build rosters, most love Star Wars and probably have people they prefer to use and not just who we’re almost forced to farm. The people that go a different route should have a fun option and have an ability to succeed in GAC and not just be lambs to slaughter. Again, I’m not really talking about myself here, because I don’t focus on GAC all that much. But I see a lot of posts about this so it seems to be an issue.
