Grand Arena matchmaking
So, I would like to know how pitting a person (me) rank in the 500s vs a person in the 100s, also ships me in the 100s while he/she in the 50s: fair? Our GP is similar yes, but clearly looking at t...

Seems like the only players that have a problem with using GP to match make in GA are those that didn't do a good job of developing their roster... All the players that focused on building lean rosters deserve to get those easy wins in GA cause they worked hard and stayed focused on only the best toons.
I know it's fashionable to play the victim card, but you made the choice to inflate your GP with worthless toons, so stop whining and start building a better roster.
I disagree with this. GP is mostly arbitrary at this point. I will admit that using GP to match people is better than some other suggestions that I see, but when they developed GP, it wasn’t focused on comparing things like ships to characters. I’m one that’s suffering from an inflated ship GP. My character roster is fairly lean like most others that do well in GA, but I’m about 200k-300k behind each opponent in squad GP.
The current GP system also doesn’t take into account the power creep that’s happened in the game. As an example, geo spy has 3 abilities that are just meh and CLS has all great abilities. If I were to max gear both toons, max all of spy’s abilities, and max any 3 of CLS’s abilities (not putting a zeta), they’re GP would be almost identical. Is there anyone that would take spy over this semi-developed CLS?
For clarity, I am in no way defending the OP because I think his argument is absurd.
