More matchmaking dumpster fire.

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.
