Grand arena is getting ridiculous.

I don’t like grand arena much do to the fact that I’m at a disadvantage most of the time. I am aware I’m weighed down by my fluff gp which I acquired to help out in Tb when it was launched and I’m behind on mods as the mod energy hasn’t been here that long and so I had to chose between leveling up the star count of my toons or doing mod challenges, cantina energy wasn’t enough. As a ftp player I focused on my main team as far as gear and mods is concerned. With the new mod limit feature I’m forced to equip mods in order to avoid selling 5* mods which could turn out to be great mods once leveled up, which I can’t simply do as Credits are always low. I could theoretically level every single mod in order to reveal all of its unknown stats, but my credits would drop down to 0 very quickly and that is simply not good. Especially when everything in this game requires credits. So this is more fluff for my gp. I hang on despite all the changes which I may or may not like but it is what it is. One of the changes is grand arena. A new mode which if I would’ve known it was coming I might have prepared for it, but again, it is what it is. Being at a disadvantage, I don’t bother with it much. I am aware that freebies are freebies so I join every single one of them and battle only occasionally. But one of the recent changes is plain ridiculous. I’m referring to the fact that I go set my defense and I’m only allowed to set 2 teams per Territory in the first two territories while my opponent gets to set 3 teams in each territory. That is simply not FAIR, no matter how you look at it. And it doesn’t help that I have all this fluff. For the players that came in after all these game changes happened and I mean the changes that really make a difference in the game, this may be nothing, but for those of us that came in before they became a reality, it really creates a problem. Ok, so what problem did it create in my grand arena? Well for starters: It gave my opponent more banners to begin with and it put that player over me in banners even though he only defeated 1 of my squads and didn’t conquer the territory. I defeated 2 of his squads, couldn’t defeat the 3rd one in the same territory. So despite defeating 2 of his squads as oppose to his 1,my banners were still way lower than his/hers. Despite the match being unfair to begin with I did what I could but it only gave me another reason to not even bother fighting in GA. The system usually sets the most ridiculous squads on defense for me which in my eyes are only good for a good laugh. In order for me to defeat my opponent I would have to take down his /her 3 teams and win by conquering that territory. How is that fair if his teams are not weaklings either, yellow gear and gear 10/11. Anyway, I welcome opinions and suggestions as I’m open minded. What I don’t welcome is criticism about my style of play. Everyone has their own style and is unique in many ways.
