Maybe go back and re-read the announcement again, once the red mist fades? It says "These changes will not affect the opponents that the player is facing in the current event"
How have they got it wrong? They were in K2, got demoted to K3 after 1 game of the Grand Arena. They're now in K3 getting K3 rewards but have 2 more matches vs K2 opponents. Seems to me it's exactly how fluffy stated it is.
Show me where he's getting k3 rewards
Dailys are decreased. I just went down to K5 and my crystals decreased. I'm not 'that' bothered about this part. Being in K5, but playing vs K4 is the main thing.
Except daily crystals where's the difference of being demoted amidst the rounds vs after? It's the exact same, your GAC won't change either way.
How is this in any way a positive change?
If you're in the same bracket there should be zero differences.
Who said that it would be a positive change? It's not negatively impacting you, you're still in the same group with the same 7 other players from the start of the GAC. So what exactly do you expect? They're not going to change your opponents in this 7-people-group every time you're getting promoted/ demoted.- M0st1yHarm1essNew SpectatorHere I'm calling it - they are moving towards getting rid of brackets and doing matchmaking after every round.

I actually would like that. It would make more sense at least theoretically, because it could be more flowing, taking into account your actual SR and win/loss with every new match.

The daily crystals will be the k3 amount
That's not how it's been working. Are you just assuming or do you have personal experience this round?
I got demoted to K5 from K4 and my dailys has gone down."StarSon;c-2352132" wrote:

Why does it matter that you're in K5 playing against K4? This part is not any different than before.
Before: you start a week with 7 opponents of essentially the same skill rating. As the week progresses, some scores go up, some scores go down. You are in the same group.
Now: you start a week with 7 opponents of essentially the same skill rating. As the week progresses, some scores go up, some scores go down. You are in the same group.
If it doesn't make sense to you, then I can't explain it. Why would you be playing somebody that isn't in the same frigging division getting different daily awards? How is this new system better in any way?
Why do you care what rewards others are getting? How does that affect you at all? - harvestmouse1Seasoned NoviceHow is it a positive change? Nobody answered. I'm not that bothered with my situation, even though it totally doesn't make sense. Since being in Kyber 4 I've gone 4/3 and above the skill rating for Kyber 5. Yet demoted and getting less rewards than my fellows bracket. I may be stronger than some of those that won in my bracket, as they could have had a weaker match up.
It's just totally nonsensical.
The question still remains.............how is this a positive change or a change that makes sense? - PersimiusRising Scout

Probably no one has a reason to state it's a positive change. But so what? Why does it have to be a positive change? And positive to who? - ccmooseRising Novice

Neither better nor worse - just different. Your matchups are the same as with the previous system. The new system only affects rewards - you lose a bit when demoted mid-GA and you gain a bit when promoted mid-GA compared to the previous system. The end result is more or less the same amount of rewards.- It'd be nice if CG could, you know, actually communicate properly. They snuck in this rather massive change with no explanation as to why. For wanting to be so candid about the new Grand Arena setup they've sure changed a great deal of it with no explanation. I too lost the first round but got a "congratulations on winning!" message so I can see how anyone who got that, then got a "hey you've been demoted" message would think GAC is bugged (wouldn't be the first time either would it).
CG's hatred of in-game messaging, which every other mobile game does in copious amounts, has always vexed me. Especially when you consider they sure do love the numerous popups to buy packs that show up more and more frequently. - I would just wanna point out that they are altering the MM system after 4 months - which was barely enough to iterate that uncivilised, 10th century caveman idea of the very first, GP based ranking.
At some point you need to ask the question: do those guys over there believe for a second that what they create is actually good in any sense?
