Leave GA alone

I’ll remind you that YOU brought up Thrawn as an example of a legendary character...when I was talking about ALL of the characters most players normally upgrade during play. I know the examples got long so to refocus:

MOST players had over 100 characters that they had to some point upgraded to complete territory wars or the hundreds of non pvp events even though their main focus may have been their PVP team.
THEN you drop grand arena in and somehow overnight it is these players fault for actually playing the game.

So it should not be hard for you to imagine how angry it makes a player with 160 geared up characters to take people who did not gear up anything but the premium characters which they “bought” though to be more precise....the premium characters they got after buying all the side characters needed to get the meta characters that are running over everything in arena.

It is possible you don’t know what I’m talking about because you don’t have a high GP. I was focusing on territory wars and farmed super effectively...

When I go into grand arena I see players who have at least 5 to 6 times as many gold gear characters as me yet they have not even put gear on 10 percent of their roster. I have 90 percent of my roster geared as high as can be done without diverting rare gear from my pvp teams. Almost all my characters are 6000 GP or above and can be used in territory war. And only about 20 of them are usually effective in grand arena...the rest get squashed.

So yes...a knife in the back is the polite way to describe a grand arena that permanently makes you face players who have both revans, Chewbacca, Malik, etc all maxed out when you still are grinding your way through the characters needed to get them.

Do you really think I should be taking on Revan teams the week those guys came out? I don’t! I’m not able to spend that kind of money...and even if I did...that would just push my GP higher and I would face even harder teams!

There is NO way to get out of this...even if I become a millionaire. It would be easier to just start a second account and start over. The forum rules do not let me properly express how angry this makes me!!!

Buddy, if you're regularly up against people who have both Revans and Malak and you have twenty useful characters, the issue isn't the matchmaking algorithm. The issue is you.

I'm 3.25 million GP, and I do not regularly see Drevalak teams. Which tells me that if you do, you're at a higher GP than me. My roster is not hyper focused. I star up toons I don't need, I place scrap gear, I unlock all abilities and get them to level 3. I have a lot of fluff GP. I still have ten, good, solid useful teams before getting into the sketchy stuff that still often manages to be useful. For you to have twenty useful units, that means you have four useful teams. How do you even manage that?

I cannot believe that is the state of your roster yet you are useful in territory wars unless you are in a guild way below your weight class, 'cuz if you were, in fact, focusing on territory war, you'd have way more useful characters than that. And we've had time since GA happened. You're still at twenty useful units? Or you've worked your way up to that point?

The problem is not the matchmaking algorithm. The problem isn't the whales, nor that you aren't spending.
There is no betrayal. There are no knives in backs. The problem is you, and your poor ability to leverage assets. And because you are gaming badly, you are earning your losses.
