I don't even mind the relic requirements for Executor, if it's like a GL capital ship? Makes sense. First batch of GL Vader requirements aren't bad either, pretty mixed - 3x BB (good), Tusken (bad), Padme (overkill so rather meh) and GAS (good).
Some ignore defense / defense penetration changes? Will have to see how this turns out.
But what the actual hell are they thinking with those "excludes galactic legends" changes? Non-GL counter teams are what makes the GL-level GAC games interesting. I can't imagine smth more boring than a "we either both place all of our GL's on defense and block a complete path or keep them all on offense" - that is IF both players have an equal number of GL's, so maybe it IS time to add a "only match players with equal number of GL's" condition. I don't have a perfect roster for GAC matchmaking (keeping chars undergeared on purpose etc.) but I'd say I did pretty good and yet I had to tace someone with all 5 GLs while I only have 3. Still beat him cause he slipped up on fleets and I was able to beat him on efficiency. 5v3 GLs (or even 4v3) in the new format in the future? You probably just lost if we start treating them like a "you're not allowed to beat this without using a GL yourself" -> horrible approach.
