You have 1 or 2 fewer GLs take it as a compliment that your technique has gotten you to that level... Gone are the days of a kraken going against a minnow or ftp account unless the kraken intentionally throws to get some easier rounds which because the rewards isn't likely to happen.
I have zero GLs at Chromium 3 and have gone up against only a handful of people with one GL in the last few GACs, but in my latest round am now being pinned against someone with 3 GLs (SEE R7, SKR R5, Rey R7) and some very strong legendaries besides, so at least *some* of the complaints about GAC are warranted.
Just as a matter of the heightened level of play these characters are at, and the teams required to get 3 of them, I'm already pretty confident I'm going to lose no matter how good my placement, gameplay, or strategy is. It's very different when it's only 1 GL and I know they can either only delete one of my best teams or keep me from conquering one of their territories. With 3 GLs, however, that's at least one of my territories guaranteed gone, two of their territories safe from conquering, or any amount of devastation between with little to no recourse on my end unless I fully abandon offense or defense. Best I can figure this person is only in the same league as me because their GP is still about 4.15 million, compared to my own at 4.65, and it looks very much like this is a new or alt account that focused exclusively on chasing GLs.
Sooo, as far as I can tell, GAC is just as filled with issues as it always has been lol.
