I sincerely hope that GP division isn't a major factor in what rewards you receive. Ignoring bad investments in the game shouldn't be penalized, I shouldn't have to choose between dumping credits into something worthwhile (mod farming) or bad characters I'll never use (more competitive GP rewards).
I'd like the ability to opt into higher GP Divisions if I accept the challenge.
Also, please elaborate on the size of GP Divisions.
The way I understood it, GP is only used as a baseline for the first bracket, and even then under heavy scrutiny during the exhibition matches.
If you win, you advance regardless of GP. If you keep advancing, you will keep going up in brackets.
You opt in by winning but this design sounds like it will do what you ask for.
The original article directly states "since a higher GP division means better rewards""Fatal;c-1883434" wrote:

You have that ability already, you can build up your GP.
Also there is no way you can clear 10-12 full G12 modded teams and still place 10-12 teams that will hold on defense. Thats what it takes at 4-5m GP. Top divisions will require +100 characters at useable levels which is impossible to have if you only have 1.2m GP.
Essentially your asking to opt into a higher division & get dominated just to get the better rewards."Kantouch;c-1883568" wrote:
Really scared of y’all determining rewards based on “what you think is needed at X GP bracket”. I may only be 1.2m GP but that doesn’t mean I don’t need g12+ gear rewards less than someone at 4-5m. Sure, I may still need holoprojectors but you bet I don’t want them when I win kyber league GAC. I can pay the 300 crystals for then from shipments. Give the little guys the big rewards, too. @CG_Carrie @CG_SBCrumb
So much this- Well, whether this is perfect in the first go or not, it sounds great. It does seem to address the 3 biggest complaints:
1. More than just GP is used for matchmaking;
2. It doesn't penalize people for broader rosters, and may benefit them;
3. Even when we don't win the whole round, there will be incentive and rewards for continuing to fight.
Kudos. Sign me up. "John_Matrix1985;c-1883401" wrote:
So.... after all that, what are the GP divisions?
Right? Literally the one thing I expected to see.."Kantouch;c-1883568" wrote:

I get you, but you do have to realize there is no way to tailor rewards to suit every single player. With so many players, they have to look at averages, and if you're an outlier, you're going to have to accept that you may not get exactly what you need.- I'm probably going to ignore this time waster. It all sounds super stressful and pressure is building to do your utmost - which goes against the grain of an enjoyable game play. I don't play PvP modes in other games either!

I’m a little concerned in reading that the number of banners matter. Does this mean someone who wins an all out offensive battle is going to have an advantage over someone who wins a heavy defensive battle? Sometimes clearing 5/7 squads is more impressive than a perfect clear.
I have a bad feeling about this... Also looking at how auto-deployment works for first GA rounds when the opponent didn't set defense. Those teams are random for sure, still you are facing every single best character the opponent has to offer. Some of my wins with the worst banner outcome resulted from facing random maxed teams.
It's already highly irritating (= sure win, but time-consuming, not competitive, not strategic, not fun) to play those matches. Hopefully, it won't further imbalance performance comparisons."Kantouch;c-1883568" wrote:

I don’t know exactly what it’ll break down to but them giving you those makes it so you can spend more crystals on refreshes and g12 pieces 300 is 300 crystals after all. Hopefully by the next season of gac you’ll be at a higher division or get to the top of your current division. I don’t see people in the 1 mil gp that play consistently staying at that division for more than a few months with all the new stuff coming into game.- @CG_SBCrumb The post seems certainly intended in that way, though I'll still need a bit of confirmation; Can we now feel safe for bumping up our GP which many folks started to pull back in reservation after the release of GA?
I guess that's what's referred as -degenerative behaviour-. And I'll certainly go back to my old mindset of pushing things as far as I can within my resources if that won't impact me negatively.
