This. It dont matter how much GP you got, you are matched against people with the same skill, im sitting at 3272 rating and I will face anyone with the rating of 3310 to 3610. It doesn't matter if that person got 9 mil gp or 1 mil gp
Considering how the actual groupings are done, I highly doubt that anyone with a skill rating of 3610 is going to get matched against someone with a rating of 3272."el_mago;c-2330081" wrote:

I feel like people are fundamentally misunderstanding how flawed CG’s skill system is. I get it’s still early but if people are being matched up with opponents millions of GP higher than them, something is wrong.
Not really, because we aren't matching on GP anymore; you have to get that thinking out of your head. You're now based on skill. That person who is a million higher than you is doing something wrong (or you are doing something right) if he/she is matched up with you.
Question is why we still have GP? CG shall be consistent and remove that non-sense number from the game completely. Do the same with TW and TB GP threshold. Change TW reward brackets into overall skill level of the guild. Remove the TB battle minimum GP requirement (never made sense anyway).
Let's get rid of that GP number from the game and people might finally stop whining.- Nah because my opponent had enough teams to place on defense and win all of my territory, while I could barely get past his ships and other characters. It’s ridiculous because these guys with such high GP obviously have enough teams for that sort of thing to whoop me, while I have to use scraps. The matchmaking might not suck, but the fact that I have to use 5 character teams in 5 defense rows is stupid and ridiculously unfair.

Yeah, I do think it works out mathematically in crystals to drop down a bit so you can take 1st place in a few subsequent events.- PersimiusSeasoned Traveler

Hello.
Can you explain how it works? My opponent and I have the same skill rating, but he is in chromium 3, I am in chromium 4. How is it possible? Shouldn't he be playing with players in his division? And by defeating him, I will receive a reward for chromium 4, and if he defeats me, will he receive a reward for chromium 3?
MM is strictly by skill rating, and you cannot be matched with someone in a different league. After this week I imagine you won't be able to match against someone in another division, either. - ccmooseNew Novice

Have there been cross-divisional matchups? I would like a SS of that. They must be very rare, if they exist at all. - PersimiusSeasoned Traveler

Well, clearly there is at least this one. But I assume last time there were none, based on how they did the initial seeding. And I suspect we will rarely, if ever, see cross-divisional matchups after this week. - Bottom line is they went from a bad MM system to another bad MM system. While people point to the new skill rating at this point it is still a very arbitrary number and probably will be for a couple more months. Match ups can be bad, and will be bad for a bit. Let's just hope that it pans out like CG is hoping for, because we know they didn't test it, and it works out in a few months. I wouldn't hold my breath though.

How could the new one not pan out? What is the fail condition for you?
By making the skill rating numbers too small with not enough gap to really sort accounts out. AS you squish people from the top it becomes a cascading effect. Probably should have had a higher top number to let people settle in a sweet spot sooner.
