- You could just farm GLs and work on GL counter teams. I realize that means taking responsibility for your actions and that doesn’t really fit the trope you perpetuate, but it is more effective then asking CG to change something that is WAI.

There's no way our guild can farm enough GL's fast enough to match up with 22 GL's but I'm pretty sure you already knew that which makes it obvious you aren't trying to be helpful."chpMINIsolo_77;c-2272858" wrote:

No, it was "squeak, squeak". And I will squeak again and again and again, so make sure and do your due diligence for the community and keep the snarky comment on your clipboard for rapid action!"DarjeloSalas;c-2272847" wrote:
It’s a shame. Apparently 9 of their guild are 100% sure they clicked join but now they are not signed up?
No that's called a sandbag. The game not taking my join in GAC is what happened to me. My game also won't load on my phone. Am I imagining that too? My buddy can't get ships to load in GAC for 2 or 3 rounds now. I'll see if I can help him solve his issue by telling him it isn't happening.

Did you consider farming GLs and working on GL counter teams? Yes, it may take some time but you'll get there eventually."AhnaldisGOAT;c-2273205" wrote:
Buddy. If you’re that angry, then…do something about it! Matchmaking messed you up. Okay. It happens. So? There will be times when matchmaking blesses you as well.
And, if you’re ENTIRE GUILD hasn’t worked on GL counters, and you’re at the level where some of you have GLs and you face them, if not always, your priorities as a guild are messed up. RNG screws us all over from time to time. If you and yours aren’t invested in ways to mitigate said RNG, you’re doing something wrong. I’ll give you three guesses what.
Homie, they only have 34 players with a 192m GP. We have 50 with a 189m GP. You have to get to their 30'th ranked player to find a GP *lower* than our highest GP player. They have a 7m player with all GL's which is enough to stop our whole guild. You're saying we have a priority problem because we just aren't developed enough to take on a pro bowl guild full of 6m+ players???? What is with the victim blaming on these forums all the time?"DarjeloSalas;c-2272847" wrote:

FTFY.
Also, where I come from, 35 people signing up for TW is called a sandbag. Too bad they outdid you.
Sandbag is where you do it on purpose. Our 30 something is just who signed up. We aren't beta males who like to rig an easy fight. They average 2m more GP per player than our bunch. I guess you see that as a fair match and we're just irresponsible for not dropping 100k or something to catch up to accounts 2 years older. To victim blame my guild for not "rising to the occasion" is simply trolling."DarjeloSalas;c-2273297" wrote:
How do you know they did it on purpose?
I don't and I don't really care. My issue isn't sandbagging. The issue that they average 2m more GP per players than our guild and it doesn't matter if they sandbag or not. Right? Right. The issue at hand is, again, not sandbagging, but that a guild full of 6m GP players get to fight a territory war with a guild with 4m GP players. If you think that is a fair match-up then you'll need to show your work on that and make a contribution to the discussion by explaining exactly what our "counter" is against a group full of players 2 years beyond us in development. I really, greatly appreciate your attention and concern to this issue.- https://data.whicdn.com/images/231087307/original.gif

I'm just going to say the same thing I have to almost every GAC/TW GL-related matchmaking issue over the past 6 months.
Does your guild have an average GP of 3M or higher?
Does your guild have 50 GLs yet?
No?
Then it's your fault.
Even assuming the absolute worst possible general resource incomes, and starting from literally zero, Rey and Kylo were obtainable 100% F2P by anyone with basically STR T6 access in december.
I've seen multiple people with under 2.5M GP get a GL.
I've had mine since somewhere around late octoberish.
Ignoring the very very blatantly obvious meta for over a year (which is now official, as GLs have been OUT for over a year, not just announced) and then complaining about getting matched with people that didn't, Is 100% your fault.
It's not like the first 2 even have crazy requirements. Neither Rey nor Kylo has any content-exclusive requirements. (SEE is additionally also ridiculously easy to get, just a bit newer.)
The first couple months, sure. It was a rather valid argument. It was a legitimate issue being matched against guilds that had teams you straight up couldn't beat - I remember it vividly, getting matched against a guild with a whale that had both and straight up walling out on both front territories, when we'd been on a streak of full clears for months prior.
But it's been 1 1/2 years since they were announced, and over a year since they were released.
If you don't have them yet, you obviously don't actually care about pvp-related performance, so I don't really understand why topics like this keep popping up from groups that very obviously don't actually care about meta chasing. If you don't meta chase, yes, you're 100% getting smacked by people that do. And it doesn't matter what game you're playing, or what bracket you're in. I've been gaming for 24 years now, with a good 15 of that being on the pseudo-pro or literal pro level. I can say, with 100% confidence, that the reason "pub stomping" and similar is even a thing, is because the vast majority of people don't even TRY to chase the meta. From FPS, to RTS, to MMORPGs, to F2P Turn-based Mobile games of all varieties - Actually using and chasing "the actual best" options generally tends to win you games.
I know this is a hard thing to accept, but you didn't lose this matchup this week.
You lost this matchup a year ago when your entire guild decided to not chase GLs.
Well hold your beer, how is "starting last year" supposed to change anything? All their players would still be 2m GP way out ahead of ours wouldn't they? LOL Guess what? My brother is STILL 5 years older than me after all these years lol. I guess I'm just lazy :/
Let's see if someone can top you in victim blaming. I doubt it, as that was legendary, but I'm sure someone will have a "hold my beer" in a minute.
