Is there a bug with GW matchmaking?

I really wish all these posts from older players would stop already. They're all long time at 85, have been simming for months, and don't have a good idea what the new players are experiencing. I keep seeing some posts like "I went from 50 to 150 without losing" and can't help myself but call that a straight out lie. It's just not possible with the current matchmaking system for players under 85.

I didn't do all 150 in a row, but got there pretty easily, especially after I got Bastila. But that was before the issue that plagues us now. I do have other accounts(PC, tablet, phone guest acct, family) that I see regularly that aren't at 150 so it is easy for me to see the issue.

Pro tip for those in the 50-60 range. Get Bastila and 4 other Jedi. My son has ran into teams that are much higher power then him according to the GW power by node research and has been able to either outright defeat them, or use a lower power team to take out one or two guys, and then finish easily with Bastila Jedi.

Empire with Tarkin lead, Vader, Tie Pilot, Snowtrooper, and RG are quite formidable if you keep them up with the rest of your roster(helps to get a couple 10 pack bonus shards from the bronziums on RG and Snow). Think he said they(19k power) beat a team that was almost 30K. Well, only Vader and Tie Pilot survived, but he got thru that battle 9 to go on and complete the war.
