Hi,I can’t find an answer to this so apologies if it’s been asked before. What happens if I kick a player during the TW setup phase and it drops us out of the current active GP bracket we were in when matchmaking happened? Will we stay in that bracket or will it invalidate the TW?

Not 100%, but I'm pretty sure they stay in your roster during TW, so any teams they placed on D remain and your GP bracket stays the same.

We’ve just never done it when it would drop us out of the active GP bracket. We had this happen once. Player placed a few questionable teams up front (again), was subsequently kicked and their teams remained on defense although if I remember correctly the the name of the player associated with the teams was changed to one of the stock names that swgoh uses.

I find it difficult to think that CG would design it this way. What happens when someone sets 5-10 teams on D and then 30 seconds before setup ends, they leave the guild? Surely, they are not going into TW down 10 defensive teams and 300 banners.

Either way I don’t see any valid reason for their squads to remain in the TW. The question was what would happen if we drop an active GP bracket as a result. I don’t expect we’d be playing for different rewards, I was more concerned whether we’d invalidate the match and cancel the TW. If I was the other guild and the TW was canceled because a member from your guild left, I would expect to get the gear awarded for a win, why should my guild be punished for something like that. For that reason alone CG would likely never cancel a TW for something so silly.

Nobody actually answered my question, they all just answered a question I didn't ask!

It was already answered:

After player lock nothing changes when a guild member leaves the guild - neither active GP nor teams set on defense.

This, I'm pretty sure nothing about the setup or matchmaking changes, I know the teams stay if they were placed.

I could understand if it was during attack phase but it doesn’t make any sense that that would happen in the setup phase.
