But if you don't have one, why are you paired with those who do? Making GAC possible, at the very least, would be a much better draw no?

No - first off, if you've been "playing since the beginning" why don't you have a GL? Second, there are non-GL counters to GL, so if you had made better decisions in building your roster (either for GLs or to counter them), you wouldn't have an issue with your GAC matchups.

GAC has been around for quite some time - how matchups are determined is fairly well understood and is fine.

Better question is why would I have a GL? Have you seen the requirements?

Also, just because GAC has been around awhile does not mean I'm wrong. It's never been fair. All I'm asking is why?

You say I'm wrong but you have nothing to back up your convictions. I was just paired with someone who has 2 maxed out GLs. How is that fair?

1) It's not a better question. I have seen the requirements. I have also been playing since the beginning. I have 3 GLs.

2) I explained how it's fair. You are matched by the GP of your top toons. You chose to invest gear/relic levels in non-GL related characters. That was your decision. Don't blame GAC matchmaking because you don't want to develop your roster in a way that maximizes your GAC matchmaking.

3) I absolutely "backed up my convictions" - by pointing out that there are non-GL counters to GLs. So even if you chose not to develop your roster toward GLs, you could have at least built it to counter them. If you wanted better GAC matchups, you should have (or should, moving forward) develop your roster with GAC matchmaking in mind.

Ignoring the GAC matchmaking algorithm while developing your roster, then complaining about your roster in GAC, is not only pointless, it looks pretty silly.

If you post your swgoh.gg profile, we can help you "fix" (or at least explain) your GAC matchup problems. But, if you simply keep complaining that it's "not fair" - it's not going to change and no one can help you.

1. This is subjective. I think it's a better question and you cannot logically tell me I'm wrong. It was just a joke anyway.
2. I disagree. I know how matchmaking is set up, and the majority, if not all, of the retorts I've been reading just state the obvious. My question has not been answered. How is any of this fair?

A flyweight who trains his whole life will never be matched with a heavyweight who isn't as experienced. It's absurd. And, since, apparently, we are now telling each other what to do, don't tell me what to do.

3. What's with the passive-aggressive quotes? Is there something fundamentally wrong with that phrase? I'm just trying to engage in a logical dialogue. I mean no offense to anybody.

These counters are too dependent on RNG and are unlikely to work. You are right in that I should reorient which toons I farm, and I am. I do want to roll with the big dogs someday. I also think it is fair to expect reasonable competition in the meantime. I never have a chance...like ever.

I'm not ignoring the algorithm. I'm arguing that it is flawed. I can't win. It's not pointless to those of us who spent the pre GL days farming whoever we liked. Finally, you can call me silly if you want. I'm still right. Matchmaking is not fair.

(PS - Don't need help!)
