I'm not entirely sure how CG determines matchmaking in this game, but being put against a guild with 200 more G13 than us isn't a reasonable pairing. Also being paired against guilds that have 5 galactic legend Rey's when we have none is incredibly overkill. Our members see that and immediately lose all will to continue fighting in TW.
An easy way to rectify this would be to update the matchmaking system based on open source material like DSR bot, which compares the amount of particular units each guild has, how many units at respective gear levels, the secondary speed stats on mods. All of this is out there and free use in the public domain, and it could easily be used to make the matchmaking system more accurate and generate fair fights
unfortunately it is highly unlikely they will take away an advantage that players pay for by only matching them against players who have a similar advantage.
matchmaking is based on GP, GP is a pure measure of how much investment someone has in their roster. Where they used that investment and how they shaped their roster is player dependent. In theory its a good system for matching and allows the players choices to determine how effective they are in their "weight class".
In theory, yes, but with GAC came the streamlining of peoples rosters, the power of galactic legends heavily outclasses their GP value and so do relics. The information to refine this game mode in order to make a better experience for everyone involved is there, no theory about it. Practically, using information that scripts like DSR bot pull up is definitively more accurate for matchmaking than saying "you're 215m GP, they're 225m GP, close enough." It also doesnt explain why we have been paired up with guilds almost 20m more than us over our last few TW's. Again, using scripts that are in the public domain are poit for point more accurate than measuring GP. This has been highlighted by the community countless of times and the amount of work needed to implement this is next to none, it's all there.
There are posts on this forum dating as far back as 2018 with people expressing their intentions to exploit the GP-based matchmaking. If anything, now is the time that it needs to be addressed and reworked. The game mode needs to update concurrently with the addition of new character tiers, new power scaling etc. GP was never an accurate representation, and now it's worse than it ever has been.
This is from our last TW. As you can see, GP is not close, gear levels of units aren't close, look at the difference in mods. But this is WAI?
how many players joined?
We were a full 50/50 last TW, which is the matchup in the screenshot
You might have been, but your opponents could have had less than 50 sign up.
This is what I'm getting at. They may have had only 40 or 45 sign up, which according to GP matchmaking would be fair, right? But not when they have multiple GL Rey on defence and our guild has no galactic legends at all. This is what I mean by GP matchmaking is outdated and needs to be updated in accordance to the current state of the game.
