Recent Div changes are nowhere near balanced

I am not sure how most of these changes are beneficial at all as I am not seeing the benefit. In the most recent GA I was moved back from Div 3 to 6 thinking I would be pared up with similar opponents but come to find most are lower GP than me but yet the other teams have nearly 8-12 relic characters up against my single relic character team. Not sure how the balance comes into play here and I would have preferred to stay in Div. 3 where I was doing betting there! And while we are on the subject if you are going to make changes like this to a PvP arena then also make the changes to the daily arena battles as well!

    I have a Single relic character, not a team. I do have several G12 characters.

It just does not feel like anything changed with the division changes and now feels almost worse than it was.


    Division update didn’t change matchmaking. If you have to put, let’s say 30 characters on defense, matchmaking count gp of your top 60 characters and match you against players with similar gp. Fleet is also a factor, but as far as know, exactly how is a mystery.

    So,if you’re match against a character with more relic characters than you, it means she/he has less develop characters after that, or has a weaker fleet than yours. Or your only relic character is at high relic level and opponents relic,characters have low relic level. There is a huge gp difference between r7 and r1.

    Zeta-spam is also a common cause of GP inflation.
  • "Single relic character team"--does that mean you were in Div 3 with 5 G13s, or 1 G13? Because either one is very low for old Div 3.

    The issue here is your roster, not matchmaking.

    Maybe you have one r7 team and 2 g12 teams and your opponent has 3 r1 teams instead. You each built your roster as you see fit with about the same resources.

  • From what I see the old Div-3 should still be seeing the same people.

    Old GP for Division -3 = 3.1 Mil to 3.8 Mil
    New GP for Division 7 = 3.1 Mil to 3.85 Mil

    It looks like they added a few folks in at the top end but it should basically be the same teams/people.

    If your in Division-6 now as you mentioned then the real problem is you moved up divisions at the same time they adjusted them & your probably at the bottom of your new Division
