You will get matched with impossible to beat opponents eventually and then all those crystals will disappear.
That's functionally impossible. If everyone reaches a point where it's impossible then everyone will also see easy wins. Someone has to be the dominant player in that scenario.
If everyone climbs till they can't win they'll drift down, or other players will follow and be easy for those that are above them already. And that's exactly what this system does. You win and climb till you can't and you'll either settle into your spot or keeps fluctuating. No different than arena in this regard. Climb till you can't win anymore, you get pushed back and climb again.
The mega krackens at the top are the exception. They can stay at the top assuming they have at least minimal skill.
The players below them will hit a wall they can't beat and also be the wall for the players below that.
What some fail to see that in a collection game, skill only accounts for a small amount of a win. Yes. If your opponent doesn't play, then that is a win. But people keep assuming that there are players bad enough that they won't be able to crush an opponent with a 3 mil gp disadvantage. At that point you can just hope they don't show up. Because even if they suck, they can place a hard defense and still auto your defense in most cases.
At the top it doesn't seem that bad. I'm at about 7 mil gp on my main and most of my matches have been around 1 mil gp either way and most decided with only a few banners.
My alt is another story. At 2.5 mil gp, I have regularly seen opponents that have 2 mil gp more than me. That's nearly double. Yes, sometimes skill or lack of your opponents skill can make the difference. But not always. Sometimes you just get crushed.
I've noticed ships is especially bad at the bottom. You quickly have to set 2 fleets. At 2.5 mil gp, having 4 fleets is a luxury that you can't afford. But my 4 mil gp opponents have far better ships just from playing longer.
And that's not to mention the fact that short of becoming a kraken, my alt will never be able to get top rewards. Even if I beat the ones with 2 mil go more than me, I will just face those with 4 mil more. So there's a clear limit to how high you can climb. And spending is the answer CG has provided.
